ITALIA E JUGOSLAVIA: DUE PAESI FRATELLI. VERSO UNA PIU' STRETTA
COLLABORAZIONE TRA LA PIRATERIA AUDIOVISIVA NAPOLETANA E QUELLA
BELGRADESE

CIAMPI IN JUGOSLAVIA: KOSTUNICA CHIEDE PIU' INVESTIMENTI
(ANSA) - BELGRADO, 17 GEN - L'Italia e' per la Jugoslavia un paese
amico da lunga data, e non solo dopo l'avvio del processo democratico a
Belgrado, ma anche nei momenti piu' difficili per il popolo jugoslavo.
Lo ha detto il presidente federale Vojislav Kostunica dopo un primo
incontro con il capo di Stato italiano Carlo Azeglio Ciampi, oggi in
visita a Belgrado. Kostunica ha sottolineato la coincidenza di molte
posizioni fra i due paesi, ed ha in particolare apprezzato il sostegno
italiano al riconoscimento della sovranita' e integrita' territoriale
jugoslava, anche per quanto riguarda i problemi montenegrino e
kosovaro. Il presidente jugoslavo ha avuto parole di apprezzamento per
l'operato dei militari della Kfor in Kosovo, dove essi ''hanno protetto
ed aiutato la minoranza serba e montenegrina''. Kostunica ha poi
parlato del sostegno economico e delle possibilita' di sviluppo nelle
relazioni fra i due paesi, che ha definito gia' ottime, invitando a una
maggiore presenza dell'imprenditoria e del sistema bancario italiani
nell'economia jugoslava. Il presidente non ha mancato di sottolineare i
numerosi incontri avuti con le massime autorita' italiane nel primo
anno del suo mandato, dei quali la visita odierna di Ciampi e' una
riconferma nell'ottica di un rapporto sempre piu' costruttivo tra i due
paesi. Il presidente jugoslavo ha infine apprezzato la cooperazione tra
Belgrado e Roma nel campo culturale, che oggi avra' un suo picco con la
firma di un accordo di collaborazione fra le universita' serbe e
italiane.(ANSA). OT/DMR

JUGOSLAVIA: IMPERVERSANO I FALSI,DA COCA COLA A PRESERVATIVI
(ANSA) - BELGRADO, 16 GEN - Bottiglia e logo sono identici
all'originale, il sapore e il mistero sugli ingredienti anche: ma gran
parte della Coca-cola che si vende nei mercati di Belgrado e di altre
citta' serbe e montenegrine e' un surrogato prodotto nel Sangiaccato, e
sta creando non pochi problemi al gigante americano delle bibite
analcoliche. Tramontata almeno in parte l'epoca del contrabbando di
massa, in Jugoslavia imperversano i falsi a tutto campo:particolarmente
colpito e' il settore alimentare - persino l'acqua minerale locale e'
oggetto di imitazioni fatte con il rubinetto di casa, anidride
carbonica ed etichette fotocopiate - ma il fenomeno interessa anche
prodotti come i preservativi di marca, profumi, cosmetici,
abbigliamento, calzature, caffe', addirittura assorbenti igienici. Non
sono ovviamente esenti gli alcolici, per i quali si rischiano
sofisticazioni al metanolo, e un rinomato pate' al quale una vecchia
fabbrica chiusa da oltre 20 anni ha rubato il marchio per riprendere la
produzione, non si sa bene con quali materie prime. Accanto ai nuovi
falsi, prospera come sempre il mercato della pirateria audiovisiva e
dei programmi elettronici, con una aggiunta: repliche perfette o quasi
delle ultime generazioni di play-station e dei giocattoli interattivi.
Come ai tempi del regime dell'ex presidente jugoslavo Slobodan
Milosevic, i copyright cinematografici continuano ad essere ignorati:
ultima infrazione della serie, l'uscita praticamente in concomitanza
con quella del mercato statunitense del film di Harry Potter, appena
sbarcato in Italia ma visibile in lingua originale nei cinema di
Belgrado gia' da diversi giorni. (ANSA). OT

THE POLITICAL CONTROVERSY IN YUGOSLAVIA

News agencies distributed information yesterday that Bosnian Serb
leaders Radovan Karadzic and Ratko Mladic were arrested. The President
of Yugoslavia, Voislav Kostunica, statted this to the Kosovo agency
UPI. The US special services arrested Karadzic and Mladic (these people
are charged of the crimes against the humanity) after the Belgrade
government informed them of their locations; the procedure of
delivering the arrested Serbs to the Hague Tribunal has allegedly been
started.

It was not reported, however, where the arrests had actually taken
place and where they were being kept at present moment. Kostunica
himself rejected the information afterwards, saying that he had made
such a claim and that he had not given an interview to any Kosovo
agency. The White House press-secretary, Ari Fleischer, confirmed that
he did not have any information pertaining to Karadzic and Mladic’s
arrests.

The Russian Echo Moskvy radio station reported that the reason for the
misunderstanding was a mistake of a translator, who wrote that Mladic
and Karadzic had been arrested. As a matter of fact, Kostunica gave an
interview to UPI in which he said that the civil authorities of
Belgrade were cooperating with the Hague Tribunal and that the American
special services were going to arrest those two men.

However, as the Yugoslavian Beta news agency reported, there is no such
UPI agency in Kosovo. The Kommersant newspaper published some very
curious information today. In particular, it was said that “the
information pertaining to Voislav Kostunica's statement to the Kosovo
news agency was delivered to the office of the ITAR-TASS news company
in Rome by the representatives of the leader of the Kosovo Albanians,
Ibragim Rugova, in Italy. The office confirmed their connection with
Mr. Rugova.

The statement made by the Yugoslavian president to the Kosovo news
agency was most likely not only a joke. It was clear from the very
beginning that Kostunica could not deliver the leaders of the Bosnian
Serbs to the Americans, and then he made statements on the subject to
the Albanian agency. Therefore, the “statement” can be referred to as
black propaganda on the part of Ibragim Rugova’s representatives. If it
turns out that the American special services nabbed Rugova Karadzic and
General Mladic, then it will be very difficult for Kostunica to prove
that he did not participate in their capture and did not say anything
to the Kosovo agency.

In addition, it was not the first time when false information regarding
Karadzic and Mladic has been distributed. This is psychological
pressure on Belgrade to try to force the Serbs to deliver the Bosnian
leaders to the Hague. It is also definitely pressure on Mladic and
Karadzic to make them yield to the Hague Tribunal.

There was an attempt in the past to bring down Radovan Karadzic’s
reputation in the eyes of Serb society. There was information
distributed saying that Karadzic was going to testify in court against
Slobodan Milosevic, the ex-president of Yugoslavia.

BOSNIA: CATTURA MLADIC E KARAZIC, ROBERTSON SMENTISCE

(ANSA) - TIRANA, 17 GEN - Il segretario generale della Nato, George
Robertson, ha negato questa sera, cosi' come riferito da alcune fonti
giornalistiche, la cattura in Bosnia di Ratko Mladic e Radovan Karazic
ricercati dal tribunale internazionale per i crimini di guerra nella ex
Jugoslavia. Giunto in visita a Tirana come prima tappa di un tour che
lo portera' nei nove paesi che hanno chiesto l' annessione alla Nato,
Robertson ha detto di ''augurarsi che questa cattura avvenga quanto
prima perche' i Balcani saranno davvero liberi e in pace solo quando
Mladic e Karazic saranno catturati davvero''. Parlando della futura,
possibile, annessione dell' Albania nell' Alleanza Atlantica, il
segretario generale ha detto che ''le porte della Nato sono aperte e a
chiuderle potranno essere solo gli albanesi''. Domani Robertson sara'
in visita in Macedonia: ''Laggiu' - ha commentato - e' stato firmato un
accordo di pace che prevede la concessione di alcuni diritti e io
chiedero' alle autorita' di Skopje che questo accordo venga applicato
al piu' presto''. Rispetto alla prospettiva, paventata questa sera
dallo stesso premier macedone, del rischio di una ripresa del conflitto
nella primavera prossima, Robertson ha detto che ''chiunque
intraprendera' azioni violente sara' considerato un criminale''.

BOSNIA: CRIMINI GUERRA; I RANGER CERCANO KARADZIC, GIORNALE

(ANSA) - SARAJEVO, 14 GEN - Da un paio di settimane i Ranger, l'unita'
d'elite dell'esercito Usa, sono stati inviati in tre localita' di
montagna nel sudest della Bosnia per catturare Radovan Karadzic, l'ex
leader serbo-bosniaco e principale ricercato per genocidio e crimini di
guerra dalla giustizia internazionale assieme al suo comandante
militare. il generale Ratko Mladic. Lo afferma il quotidiano di Banja
Luka 'Nezavisne novine'. Tre gruppi dei Ranger - scrive il giornale
citando fonti della Forza di stabilizzazione della Nato (Sfor) e delle
istituzioni internazionali in Bosnia - stanno cercando Karadzic sulle
montagne di Romanija e di Zelengora, rispettivamente a est e a sudest
da Sarajevo, e nella zona di confine tra la Bosnia e il
Montenegro. ''Prima di inviare i commando sul campo - aggiunge il
giornale - gli americani hanno raggiunto un accordo con il presidente
montenegrino Milo Djukanovic secondo il quale saranno sbarrati i
confini per non permettere a Karadzic di riparare nel suo paese
d'origine''. Secondo il quotidiano, il supporto logistico agli
americani e' dato dal contingente britannico della Sfor, mentre i
militari francesi, nella cui zona di competenza i Ranger starebbero
operando, sono esclusi dall'operazione per paura di fuga delle
informazioni. Il giornale afferma anche che si fa sempre piu' certo
l'arresto e la consegna all'Tribunale penale internazionale dell'Aja
del generale Mladic da parte delle autorita' jugoslave. ''E' un segreto
di Pulcinella - scrive il quotidiano - che Mladic si sia barricato nel
suo appartamento nella capitale della Jugoslavia e che e' oggetto di
infuocate trattative diplomatiche tra Belgrado e l'Aja''. Negli ultimi
mesi le autorita' di Belgrado hanno a piu' riprese smentito che Mladic
si trovasse sul territorio jugoslavo, nonostante numerosi testimoni
affermino di averlo visto in diversi luoghi pubblici. La stampa
bosniaca riporta regolarmente voci sui presunti nascondigli e movimenti
di Karadzic e Mladic, mentre la Sfor afferma di non conoscere dove si
nascondano i due latitanti, ricercati dalla fine della guerra (1992-
1995). Lo scorso settembre, l'allora comandante della Sfor generale
americano Michael Dodson ha detto, prima di lasciare l'incarico, che i
due ricercati sono rifugiati in Jugoslavia (Serbia e Montenegro) e che
solo occasionalmente vengono in Bosnia. (ANSA) COR*VD

RITRATTO DEL SIGNOR SACIRBEGOVIC, PATRIOTA BOSGNACCO

Mister Sacirbegovic, per dimostrare il suo zelo patriottico
musulmano-bosniaco (quindi "bosnjak", bosgnacco), attorno al 1990
cambiava il suo nome ed il suo cognome: diventava Maometto per fede e
Bey per ideologia panislamica ed antislava. Per premio gli veniva dato
l'incarico di Ambasciatore presso l'ONU, come rappresentante dello
statarello dei tre gigli nuovo di zecca. All'epoca (1992-1993) era in
prima fila - a braccetto con la Ruder&Finn Public Global Relations e con
il Partito Radicale italiano - nella campagna disinformativa sugli
"stupri etnici" e sui "lager cetnici", con la quale spopolava a destra e
a sinistra. Dopo avere allegramente realizzato il sogno sanguinoso dello
smembramento del suo paese, Mister Sacirbegovic poteva ulteriormente
consolidare le sue entrature nell'establishment USA sposando una parente
di Mister Hoolbroke. Poi decise di voler fare la bella vita, e si
rovino'. (I. Slavo)

BOSNIA: MANDATO ARRESTO INTERNAZIONALE PER EX AMBASCIATORE
(ANSA) - SARAJEVO, 07 GEN - Le autorita' bosniache hanno emesso tramite
l'Interpol un mandato d'arresto internazionale contro l'ex ambasciatore
all'Onu ed ex ministro degli esteri Muhamed Sacirbey, accusato di
appropriazione indebita di 2,8 milioni di euro. Lo ha reso noto la
radio di Sarajevo. Sacirbey, che ha la doppia cittadinanza bosniaca e
americana, vive negli Stati Uniti. Le accuse contro Sacirbey sono
relative alle spese e ai fondi pubblici gestiti dalla missione bosniaca
a New York di cui Sacirbey e' stato il capo dal 1992 al 1996 e dal 1998
al 2000 e per cui non ha mai presentato riscontri. Il ministero degli
esteri ha percio' citato Sacirbey per appropriazione indebita di 2,5
milioni di dollari (2,8 milioni di euro) di fondi pubblici, ma i
mandati di comparizione emessi dalla magistratura bosniaca non gli sono
stati mai notificati. Sacirbey, vicino all'ex presidente Alija
Izetbegovic ha vissuto in Bosnia solo dal 1998 al 2000, quando e' stato
ministro degli esteri. Dopo la vittoria alle elezioni dell'Alleanza per
il cambiamento e la sconfitta dell'Ada, il partito di Izetbegovic, il
nuovo governo ha avviato delle ispezioni che hanno evidenziato
l'ammanco. (ANSA). COR*VD

OEA PRESS RELEASE:
Metropolitan Christopher issues

OPEN LETTER OF PROTEST

LIBERTYVILLE - 10 January 2002:
Throughout our civilized world, year-end

celebrations mark festal seasons, both
sacred and secular, as a time of joy
and reflection. Orthodox Christianity is
no exception. However, this year
and yet again, the Serbian Orthodox
celebration of Christmas in Kosovo
and Metohija was tragically marred by
"violence and barbarity by Albanian
extremists." With these words, Yugoslav
President Vojislav Kostunica
strongly condemned recent outbreaks of
violence, coupled with a warning that
the situation in the province of Kosovo
and Metohija had not improved since
the November 2001 elections.

On Christmas Eve (according to the
Julian Calendar), Sunday, 6 January 2002,
a Serbian shop owner, Dragoljub Markovic
(age 36, father of 3) was killed
when he tripped a wire stretched across
the back entrance to his shop in
Kosovska Kamenica and set off an
explosive devise. This incident - one of
many in an ongoing series of terrorist
acts against the Serbian and other
non-Albanian populations of Kosovo and
Metohija - despite the presence of
so-called international peacekeeping
forces, triggered protests in the
streets of Kamenica until the man's
funeral on Christmas Day, 7 January
2002. Ironically, the principles of
"peace on earth and good will among
humanity" are clearly forsaken in Kosovo
and Metohija.

Kosovo Serbs have been openly urged to
participate in voter registration
and in past elections in return for
guarantees from UNMIK - the United
Nations Mission in Kosovo. Despite strong
participation in the electoral process, it
seems that little has changed in terms
of basic human rights and indeed, in
the very right to life itself. Organized
crime and discrimination against
non-Albanians is epidemic; 200,000 Serbs
(2/3rds of the prewar Serb
population) have fled; 50,000 Roma, Slav
Moslems, Croat Catholics and others
had to leave; more than 1,000 Serbs have
been killed; over 1,200 abducted
and are still missing. This is ethnic
cleansing of the first order.

Approximately 120,000 Serbs have lost
employment overnight; the Serbian
language is completely banished from
public life; all Serb inscriptions have
been systematically removed; thousands
of Serb books in public libraries
have been burned; Serb cultural
monuments, including 110 churches and
monasteries have been destroyed; and
Albanians greatly pressure Serbs to
sell their property under threats and
extortion. Refusals result in example
torching, killings and grenade attacks.
When will it end?

Kosovo is still ruled by apartheid. We
agree with President Kostunica who
stated: "Kosovo Albanians must decide if
they envisage a serious change of
policy towards peace and stabilization...
or whether they intend to
continue to live within a context of
violence." In the absence of decisive
action by the United Nations and NATO
against terrorism and violence, which
occurs continually in their very
presence, this choice obviously has been
made since it is apparently unopposed.

Therefore - as this directly impedes
upon our American security policies in
our stand against terrorism everywhere
in the world- on behalf of the
Serbian Orthodox Church in the United
States of America and Canada, we
openly call upon the Honorable President
of the United States of America

George W. Bush, and the Honorable
Secretary of State Colin L. Powell, to do
what is vitally necessary in moving the
United Nations and NATO to act
swiftly and decisively against terrorism
in Kosovo and Metohija, restoring
civilized law and order, returning all
the refugees to their homes, and
together working toward peace in the
world.

LE NUOVE PRODUZIONI DELLA CINEMATOGRAFIA BELLICISTA

Negli ultimi anni una serie di film e documentari prodotti in vari paesi
d'Europa hanno mirato a presentare la guerra fratricida jugoslava di
volta in volta come esplosione irrazionale di atavica barbarie oppure
come aggressione panserba al resto del mondo. In questo filone si
inseriscono ad esempio il cortometraggio razzista di Adriano Sofri "I
cani di Sarajevo", nel quale i cani sono, implicitamente, i serbi, e la
recentissima produzione propagandistica di B. Henri-Levy "Bosna". In
questi giorni sta uscendo una nuova pellicola statunitense, prodotta con
uno sforzo congiunto di Hollywood, del Pentagono e delle agenzie di
Public Relations che dal 1991 in poi hanno lavorato per l'appoggio ai
separatismi ed a favore dello squartamento della Jugoslavia. Il film si
chiama "Dietro le linee nemiche", e si presenta come autentica
immondizia propagandistica.

=======================================
NATO AND THE UN SPONSOR TERRORISTS IN KOSOVO
by Jared Israel and Rick Rozoff
[Posted 16 September 2001]
=======================================

Most people began reading Emperor's Clothes
because of our articles on 9-11.
We urge you to read the following, about
Kosovo. Since NATO and the UN in
Kosovo are very much under U.S. domination,
their behavior towards the Kosovo
terrorists clarifies the real relationship
of the U.S. Establishment to
terror. And looking at Kosovo we find the
same patterns of dishonesty and
public obfuscation that we have witnessed
around 9-11.

To help understand how NATO and the UN
operate in Kosovo, consider the news
dispatch below. It was issued by KFOR on May
24, 2001. (KFOR stands for
Kosovo Force. KFOR is the NATO occupation
force in Kosovo. COMKFOR is the
Command of the NATO occupation force in
Kosovo.)

Here's the KFOR dispatch:

"KFOR News Update
Pristina, 24 May 2001
By Maj. Axel-Bernd Jandesek, KFOR Spokesman

"More Than 450 UCPMB Members Surrendered
"By the end of COMKFOR's soft policy towards
UCPMB extremists, more than 450
former extremists had taken advantage of
this policy. These people
voluntarily laid down their arms and turned
themselves in at several KFOR
checkpoints. KFOR screened and released all
UCPMB members who are not
suspected of having committed serious
crimes."--KFOROnline 24 May 2001 (1)

UCPMB are the initials used by ethnic
Albanian terrorists when they are
attacking inner Serbia.

Some thoughts:

1) Note that the headline of this news
update speaks of '450 UCPMB members
surrender[ing]' but the text suggests all
except perhaps a few have been
released.

2) The news update calls the UCPMB members
'extremists.' This suggests people
with far-out political positions. But in
fact these people are terrorists
organized in military units which conduct
heavily armed raids against inner
Serbia. They plant land mines. They
terrorize uncooperative ethnic Albanians.
They kidnap, torture and kill Serbian
villagers and policemen. They fight
battles against Yugoslav soldiers. Since all
this is illegal, and much of it
is murder, on what basis would KFOR conclude
that most of these terrorists
have not committed serious crimes?

3) Once the terrorists were released, why
wouldn't they return to their
previous occupation - laying land mines,
terrorizing, kidnapping and killing
people in inner Serbia?

To understand the significance of these
questions, consider the official
obligations of KFOR and its sister
organization, UNMIK (United Nations
Mission in Kosovo). These responsibilities
are laid out in the agreement
under which KFOR and UNMIK have occupied
Kosovo. That agreement is UN
Security Council Resolution 1244, or UNSCR
1244 (or just UN 1244 for short)
and the following is one of its overall
principles:

"Reaffirming the commitment of all Member
States to the sovereignty and
territorial integrity of the Federal
Republic of Yugoslavia and the other
States of the region, as set out in the
Helsinki Final Act and annex 2..."
Note: Helsinki Final Act can be read at
http://www.hri.org/docs/Helsinki75.html

Regarding specific responsibilities:

"[The Security Council] decides that the
responsibilities of the
international security presence [that is,
KFOR and UNMIK] to be deployed and
acting in Kosovo will include:

Deterring renewed hostilities, maintaining
and where necessary enforcing a cease-fire...;
Demilitarizing the Kosovo Liberation Army
(KLA) and other armed Kosovo
Albanian groups as required in paragraph 15
below;
Establishing a secure environment in which
refugees and displaced persons can
return home in safety, the international
civil presence can operate, a
transitional administration can be
established, and humanitarian aid can be
delivered;"
-- KFOR Online on UN Security Council
Resolution 1244 (2)
By setting free 450 terrorists who have been
committing mayhem in inner
Serbia (which is part of the Federal
Republic of Yugoslavia) KFOR flatly
contradicts its core principle:

"Reaffirming the sovereignty and territorial
integrity of the Federal
Republic of Yugoslavia..."

And what about:

Demilitarizing the Kosovo Liberation Army
(KLA) and other armed Kosovo Albanian groups...
[And] establishing a secure environment...
According to U.S. President William Clinton,
these requirements were largely
fulfilled by June 2000. In a letter to
Congress, Clinton stated:

"The KLA agreed on June 21, 1999, to a cease
fire, to withdraw from the zones
of conflict in Kosovo, and to demilitarize
itself. On September 20, 1999,
KFOR Commander Lieutenant General Sir Mike
Jackson accepted the KLA's
certification that the KLA had completed its
demilitarization in accordance
with the June 21 agreement. The UNMIK
thereafter established a civil
emergency services entity known as the
Kosovo Protection Corps that is
intended to provide civic assistance in
emergencies and other forms of
humanitarian assistance.

...The KFOR personnel provide a security
presence in towns, villages, and the
country-side."
--President Clinton's Letter to Congress on
U.S. Forces in Kosovo. 16 June 2000 (3)

CLINTON'S LIE # 1: "ON SEPTEMBER 20, 1999
THE KLA HAD COMPLETED ITS
DEMILITARIZATION"

Regarding this, the Russian Press Digest
commented:

"The head of the U.N. mission in Kosovo,
Bernard Kouchner, has announced that
KLA representatives had turned in 10,000
units of various types of weapons
which allows the mission to speak about the
completion of the disarmament
process. 'We are satisfied that the OAK
[KLA] handed in 10,000 firearms, even
if we know that they still have another
100,000 guns,' joked one of the
members of the U.N. mission in Kosovo."
--Russian Press Digest 21 September 1999 (4)

Reports in other newspapers confirm that the
supposed demilitarization of the
KLA was a bad joke. Thus it is no surprise
that, following this
'demilitarization,' the KLA continued its
practice of gangsterism and
terrorism. This is documented in the
chilling article, 'Concentration Camps
and Gangster/Terrorism in Kosovo.' (4a)

CLINTON'S LIE # 2: "UNMIK Established the
Kosovo Protection Corps [which
is]...civic and humanitarian"

An article in La Stampa, the Italian
newspaper, vividly described the way the
civic and humanitarian Kosovo Protection
Corps (KPC) was set up.

"Shortly after midnight a local commander of
the KLA delivered to the Italian
KFOR troops the first shipment of weapons.
The delivery was preceded by a
short ceremony ...in the course of which a
group of KLA guerrillas
symbolically turned over six machine-guns to
a squad of Italian troops,
receiving in exchange new uniforms of the
'Kosovo Protection Corps,' the
civil protection group into which the KLA
have to be transformed. The base
commander, Gezim Ostremi was asked if his
forces were still part of the
Kosovo Liberation Army, to which he replied,
after looking at the clock,
'It's after midnight, so we are Kosovo
Protection Corps.'"
--La Stampa, 20 September 1999 (5)

This was not the exception; it was the rule.

KFOR and UNMIK simply changed Kosovo
Liberation Army (terrorist) to Kosovo
Protection Corps (civic and humanitarian).

The KLA war criminals were not given jail
terms. They weren't even forced to
attend re-education classes, like a person
convicted of drunk driving.
Instead they were rewarded with new KPC
uniforms, a respectable title, UN
status (!) and paychecks (!).

And they got a leader. This was Agem Ceku.
For Mr. Ceku's curriculum vitae,
see 'UN Appoints an Alleged War Criminal in
Kosovo.' (6)

In brief, until he was appointed to the top
position in the KPC, Agem Ceku
led the KLA. And before that he was a
Croatian military officer, implicated
in war crimes against thousands of Serbian
civilians in the Krajina section
of Yugoslavia. (7)

Did KFOR and the UNMIK somehow transform the
terrorists who staffed the KPC
into good citizens?

Consider the case of Gezim Ostremi, the KLA
commander mentioned in the La
Stampa article, above.

During the summer of 2001, two years after
the formation of the KPC, some
Western newspapers revealed that Ostremi was
leading the terrorist assault on
Macedonia! The Irish Times commented:

"Before launching war in Macedonia,
Commander Gezim Ostremi was paid by the
UN to help set up the Kosovo Protection
Corps (KPC), [then] being appointed
its chief-of-staff." --The Irish Times, 5
July 2001 (8)

According to the Irish Times, Ostremi's role
as terrorist leader was a shock
to the leaders of the UN and NATO in Kosovo:

"The co-ordination of the international
community in the Balkans has been
thrown into confusion [by the revelation]."
The Irish Times, 5 July 2001 (8)

Ahh, confusion.

It seems that anytime the leaders of our new
Empire are implicated in some
vicious act that suggests not only hypocrisy
but criminal misconduct, they
and the media put the 'blame' on confusion,
inefficiency, bewilderment, lack
of preparedness - that is, human error.
"These vast bumbling bureaucracies
don't plot evil deeds, they just totally
screw up," is the idea.

Apparently someone did a study which
revealed that ordinary people will
forgive any official misdeed as long as the
guilty party quickly and freely
'confesses' to stupidity or incompetence
(rather than evil intent...)

Thus when he was asked why no planes took
off from Andrews Air Force Base,
which is right beside Washington, DC, to
intercept American Airlines Flight
77 during the 55-or-so minutes it was flying
towards the Pentagon, Secretary
of Defense Donald Rumsfeld offered the
following 'confession:'

"RUMSFELD: Tony, it happens because the
United States has not said to itself
that it needs to stay on high alert every
minute of the day."
--Fox News Sunday, (09:00) 16 September 2001
(9)

And when U.S. war planes bombed the clearly
marked and geographically
isolated Red Cross warehouses in Afghanistan
for the second time, the media
universally called it a mistake. (Actually
the second bombing was carried out
in two or more waves by several different
types of bombers.) Here are several
samples of the coverage:

* "In a costly mistake Friday, a Red Cross
warehouse was accidentally bombed
again." (The Lexington Herald Leader, 30
October 2001)

* "...twice mistakenly hit a Red Cross
warehouse" (The Herald (Glasgow), 30
October 2001)

* "...a second mistaken strike on a Red
Cross warehouse" (USA TODAY, 30
October 2001).

Emperor's Clothes interviewed Red Cross
officials in Switzerland about the
bombings. Based on what these officials told
us, it is simply impossible to
believe the U.S. military bombed the
warehouses by mistake. (10)

Returning to Mr. Ostremi, the Kosovo
Protection Corp (KPC) Chief-of-staff,
how could his terrorist activities come as a
surprise to KFOR and the UNMIK?

According to the Irish Times,

"The lack of close supervision [of the KPC]
meant it was weeks before the UN
realised Commander Ostremi had left to
command the rebels in Macedonia - with
some assuming he had gone on holiday."--The
Irish Times, 5 July 2001 (8)

Ahh, lack of close supervision, the cousin
of confusion and the curse of the
'bumbling bureaucrat.'

Note that not one bureaucrat has been
arrested for the criminal neglect
involved in allowing the Chief-of-Staff of
the KPC, an official UN
organization, to run a terrorist invasion of
a sovereign state. All is
forgiven because 'we all make mistakes.'

But wait. It wasn't just Ostremi that the UN
and KFOR overlooked due to lack
of close supervision.

"Hundreds of KPC reservists were called up
by their Albanian commander, Agim
Ceku, in March. They subsequently
disappeared to former KLA training camps in
Albania and are now re-emerging [as
terrorist fighters] in Macedonia."
--London Times, 10 June 2001 (11)

Sounds like the whole skeleton of the KLA
organization was activated, in the
form of KPC reservists, to go off and fight
in Macedonia.

You might wonder how KPC 'reservists' would
be able to commit terrorist acts
on unfamilair Macedonian territory.Wouldn't
they get lost?

No problem.

"Embarrassingly for the alliance, they [the
KPC reservists attacking
Macedonia!] are making use of maps issued by
Nato for the Kosovo Protection
Corps."
--London Times, 10 June 2001 (11)

We comment on these maps in 'Sorry Virginia
But They Are Nato Troops, Not
'Rebels:'

[START QUOTE from 'Sorry Virginia']
"Isn't it charming how the Times employs the
term, 'embarrassingly,' as if
NATO had committed some breech of etiquette?
Let's see. Would that be
'embarrassingly' as in you order the wrong
wine to go with your date's
grilled shark? Or would that be
'embarrassingly' as in you get nabbed driving
the getaway car at the St. Valentine's Day
Massacre?

"Since NATO issued them and the KLA is using
them for an invasion, it is
reasonable to assume these are detailed
maps, including roads, the location
of various facilities and topographical
features such as hills, etc.

"Macedonia is a sovereign state. It is not
under NATO or UN control. The
Kosovo Protection Corps has no valid reason
to set foot on Macedonian territory.

"The KPC is officially not a military entity.

"Putting all this together, for what purpose
did NATO provide the KPC with
military maps of Macedonia? If not for the
obvious purpose: to attack it!"

[END QUOTE from 'Sorry Virginia']

CLINTON'S LIE # 3: '...KFOR personnel
provide a security presence in towns,
villages, and the country-side.'

This sounds comforting. But Emperor's
Clothes has published interviews with
eyewitnesses who report the exact opposite:
that KFOR and the UNMIK are
responsible for a massive reign of terror
since they took over Kosovo. For
example:

* KFOR opened the border with Albania,
allowing KLA-connected gangsters to
pass freely between Kosovo and their bases
in Northern Albania. (12)

* KFOR watched while people with the wrong
loyalties were terrorized and
driven from their homes. (13)

* Serbs who remained in Kosovo were forced
into concentration-camp-style
ghettos, run by KFOR and terrorized by the
KLA. (14)

* Those Serbs who remain in Kosovo live in
constant fear. Speaking the wrong
language can get one killed by making one
appear to be a Serb. (14a) Even
standing by one's window can be deadly if
you are a Serb in one of the new
Kosovo ghettos. (14)

UNMIK and KFOR are entirely aware of the
monumental terrorism of the
UN-created Kosovo Protection Corps. The UN
even prepared a special report for
Secretary General Kofi Annan documenting the
KPC's violent racism and
gangsterism. (15) But of course UNMIK and
KFOR don't need a special report.
These high-power management and military
organizations with their redundant
intelligence organizations are perfectly
capable of seeing what is going on
before their eyes.

Consider the following case in point.

On 16 February 2001:

"...[an] explosion destroyed a bus carrying
more than 50 Serbs who were
returning to Kosovo after visiting their
ancestors' graves in Serbia. [The
attackers] killed 11 Serb civilians,
including a two-year-old child."
--The Daily Telegraph (London), 28 March
2001 (16)

Four suspects were arrested but "the
identity of the men arrested is bound to
prove highly embarrassing for Western
governments." (The Daily Telegraph
(London), 28 March 2001) (16)

Why 'embarrassing?'

Isn't 'embarrassing' an odd word to use
regarding such a crime?

Embarrassing because:

"They are all members of the Kosovo
Protection Corps, the Western-backed
civil defence organisation which sprang from
the Kosovo Liberation Army when
it was demilitarised in 1999. Some members
of the KLA had been trained by the
SAS."
...
"Links between the KPC and organised crime
and political violence are an open
secret in Kosovo. The KPC's alleged
involvement in the killing of the 11
Serbs - an incident which was condemned
around the world - comes at a highly
sensitive time for Nato and the UN in
Kosovo."
--The Daily Telegraph (London), 28 March
2001 (16)

Note that when President Clinton was
claiming the Kosovo Protection Corps as
a victory for UNMIK, he wrote:

"UNMIK thereafter established a civil
emergency services entity known as the
Kosovo Protection Corps."

But in its laudably critical comments the
Daily Telegraph states that the KPC:

"sprang from the Kosovo Liberation Army when
it was demilitarised in 1999."

So, even in criticism, the Western media
pulls its punches. The
demilitarization is accepted as fact in an
article which provides evidence
that it is a lie! And the KPC is presented
as having popped out of the ground
like a weed when it was planted and watered
by the UNMIK and KFOR.

CONTINUED PART 2

http://www.emperors-clothes.com/articles/jared/nocrime.htm

================================================
Part 2 of 'NATO AND THE UN SPONSOR
TERRORISTS IN KOSOVO'
================================================

The arrest of the KPC terrorists who blew up
this bus is of course 'embarassing' because:

a) "The UNMIK established the Kosovo
Protection Corps"
(see Clinton's Letter to Congress of 16 June
2000 (3)) and

b) the "links between the KPC and organised
crime and political violence are
an open secret in Kosovo" (Telegraph, 28
March 2001 (16)) and therefore

c) KFOR and UNMIK are responsible for the
KPC's murderous attacks.

KFOR and UNMIK apparently recovered from
initial embarrassment. They released
three of the suspects. The fourth, a certain
Florim Ejupi, miraculously
escaped from detention in Bondsteel, the
impenetrable U.S. military base in
Kosovo.

Undoubtedly the detention center guards were
'unprepared' for the escape
attempt of this latter-day Houdini, which
therefore threw the poor things
'into confusion,' a fact they subsequently
found 'highly embarrassing.'

And of course nobody was arrested for
letting Florim Ejupi get away because
'everyone makes mistakes.' And isn't the
humiliation of it all punishment
enough? (On Florim Ejupi , see Los Angeles
Times, 15 May 2001) (17)

Contrary to the
'confusion/lack-of-preparedness/we-can't-be-
everywhere
/we're-just-bumbling-bureaucrats' line which
KFOR, UNMIK and the apologist
media routinely offer to explain the
unending reign of terror in Kosovo, the
U.S. Army's own rules hold KFOR commanders
criminally responsible for
systematic terrorism carried out on their
watch:

"The commander is also responsible if he has
actual knowledge, or should have
knowledge, through reports received by him
or through other means, that
troops or other persons subject to his
control are about to commit or have
committed a war crime and he fails to take
the necessary and reasonable steps
to insure compliance with the law of war or
to punish violators thereof.... "
--US Army Field Manual Law of Land Warfare
(18)

Holding onto that thought, let us return to
the KFOR news release posted at
the start. It states that based on KFOR's
'soft policy' toward the UCPMB, 450
terrorists turned themselves in and were
subsequently released unless there
was evidence they had committed a 'serious
crime.'

A few thoughts:

1) Newspaper accounts routinely describe the
UCPMB 'extremists' attacking
inner Serbia as local Albanians, driven to
rebellion by intolerable
oppression. But these 450 - 450! -
'extremists' were arrested in Kosovo, not
inner Serbia. Obviously they are not people
driven by abuse to take up arms;
they are part of the Kosovo Liberation Army,
now reorganized into the Kosovo
Protection Corps, just like the terrorists
attacking Macedonia.

2) Under UN Resolution 1244, KFOR must not
limit itself to a 'soft policy'
which permits terrorist murderers
voluntarily turn themselves in and be
released. It is KFOR's obligation to hunt
down and jail these terrorists.

So why does KFOR go through this charade of
voluntary detention of terrorists
followed by their release? Because the
charade is calculated to solve a
certain tricky problem.

On the one hand, KFOR wants the citizens of
NATO countries to think it acts
tough against terror. But on the other hand,
the KPC terrorists are its
creation; they constitute a proxy army used
to destabilize the Balkans, which
is NATO's strategic goal.

Moreover, the terrorists require clear
evidence that NATO supports them. This
is discussed in the shortened version of our
third interview with Cedomir
Prlincevic, the Kosovo archivist.
(See 'What's Behind KLA Strategy in the
Balkans?') (19)

Mr. Prlincevic explains that certain
features of Albanian culture make the
powerful Albanian clan leaders highly
susceptible to threats and
demonstrations of power from ethnic
Albanians. Therefore it is crucial that
the KLA show it has super-powerful NATO
behind it.

NATO wishes to provide evidence that it
supports the KLA but it cannot do so
openly without alienating Western public
opinion. After all, the KLA is
attacking Macedonia and inner Serbia. The
Macedonian government has in the
past been NATO's errand boy and the current
government of Serbia is staunchly
pro-NATO. So NATO must seem to oppose the
secessionist attacks on Macedonia
and inner Serbia.

By accepting the voluntary surrender of
terrorists (renamed 'extremists') and
then releasing all those 'not suspected of
having committed serious crimes,'
NATO resolves the paradox of its duplicity.
The detentions say, 'We oppose
Albanian terrorism,' but the releases say,
"We support it."

And that, dear friends, is the truth.

As George Thompson has documented in his
article, 'Roots of Kosovo Fascism,'
the KLA and the KPC are the political
descendents of the Albanian
terrorist/fascists who ruled Kosovo as
puppets of Nazi Germany in World War
II. (20)

By supporting the KLA terrorist/fascists in
Kosovo, KFOR and UNMIK leaders
have not only violated international law,
including the Helsinki Final Act;
they have not only made a mockery of UN
Security Council Resolution 1244.

They have also put the political descendents
of the World War II Nazis back
in power in Kosovo. It is a fact that the
ethnic Albanian Nazis in Kosovo
were the last Nazis to surrender - they kept
fighting until 1950. U.S. and
Euro policies have, shockingly, brought
these, the worst elements among
Kosovo Albanians, to power once again. Read
carefully the following 'L.A.
Times' report regarding the joy of some
ethnic Albanians when German troops
returned to the Kosovo city of Prizren in
June 1999:

[START L.A. Times excerpt]
"...Many Kosovo Albanians sided with the
Nazis during World War II, and
today, some of them do not distinguish
between the past and present German
armies--both of which, to their way of
thinking, accomplished the same feat:
freeing them from Serbian rule. "This is a
second liberation," said Ali Majo,
68, a native of this city in southwestern
Kosovo. "I can't describe how it
felt when we saw German soldiers come to
liberate us again."

"So much for moral victories in the Balkans.

"Majo was 10 years old when the German
Wehrmacht rolled into Prizren in April
1941. The Nazis arrived in the hills around
town on motorcycles, looked
through their binoculars and opened fire on
a partisan artillery position, he recalled.

'"After that, they came in and circled the
town,' Majo said. 'We all shouted,
Heil Hitler. We were proud of the German
soldiers because they liberated us
from the Serbs.'

"Naim Poloshka, 72, remembers how one of the
Wehrmacht soldiers gave him a
chocolate and a ride on his motorcycle. They
drove him around town so he
could point out houses where partisans
lived.

"Like much of Prizren, Poloshka was stunned
when he woke one morning to find
that the Germans had hanged nine suspected
partisans--five Serbs and four
ethnic Albanians--in the center of town
overnight.

"But it did not dampen his enthusiasm for
the Nazis." [END L.A. Times excerpt] (21)

We call on KFOR soldiers and UN employees in
Kosovo, of all nationalities:
implement UN Resolution 1244. Arrest the
terrorist leaders of the KPC,
responsible for forcing hundreds of
thousands of non-Albanians and
anti-Fascist Albanians out of Kosovo, for
kidnapping and murdering untold
numbers of people in Kosovo, inner Serbia
and Macedonia.

By doing this, you will obey both
international law and your mandate under UN
Resolution 1244 and you will uphold your
honor as soldiers rather than thugs.

If anyone dares try to stop you from doing
this, they are criminals -
regardless of rank - and should be arrested
as well.

- Jared Israel and Rick Rozoff

Lawyer Files Suit Over NATO Attack

BERLIN. A lawyer for relatives of civilians killed in
a NATO bombing raid on a bridge in Serbia during the
1999 Kosovo war has filed a lawsuit seeking damages
from the German government, a spokeswoman for the
justice authorities here said on Tuesday.


The suit was filed on Dec. 24 by the Berlin-based
lawyer Ulrich Dost, she said, confirming news reports.


Ten people were killed and more than 30 injured, 17 of
them seriously, when North Atlantic Treaty
Organization jets attacked the bridge in the town of
Varvarin, south of the Yugoslav capital, Belgrade, on
May 30, 1999. Mr. Dost, who says Germany carries
responsibility for the casualties as a NATO member,
even though its planes were not involved, claims that
the attack was a war crime, and that NATO commanders
broke the Geneva Conventions by deliberately attacking
civilians.The suit does not specify how much he is
seeking for his clients, but in a letter to the German
Defense Ministry last June, he reportedly demanded a
total of DM2.58 million ($1.2 million) for his
clients. (AP)

FRANKFURTER RUNDSCHAU (4.01.02)

Anwalt will "Kollateralschäden" nicht akzeptieren
Dost klagt Deutschland wegen des Nato-Angriffs auf
eine Brücke im serbischen Varvarin an
Von Rainer Jung (Berlin)

In Afghanistan stellen sich die Fragen dieser Tage wieder blutig und
direkt: Wie gehen demokratische Staaten, die einen High-Tech-Krieg aus
der Luft führen, mit den Zivilisten am Boden um? In welchem Maße dürfen
sie bei Schlägen gegen Soldaten und Terroristen unbeteiligte Opfer in
Kauf nehmen?
"Kollateralschaden" oder Kriegsverbrechen - dieser Grundsatzstreit soll
nun am Beispiel Jugoslawien vor einem deutschen Gericht verhandelt
werden. Es ist ein ganzer Koffer voll Papier, den Ulrich Dost am
Heiligabend beim Berliner Landgericht abgeladen hat. 150 Seiten
Klageschrift und mehr als 1000 Blatt Zeugenaussagen, die beispielhaft
die bleibenden Schäden eines fast schon vergessenen Krieges
dokumentieren. Am 30. Mai 1999, als der Weltverbrecher Nummer eins noch
nicht Osama bin Laden, sondern Slobodan Milosevic hieß, bombardierten
Nato-Kampfjets, geflogen von US-Amerikanern oder Briten, die
Morava-Brücke in der serbischen Kleinstadt Varvarin. Nach
Einschätzung des westlichen Bündnisses ein Angriff gegen ein "legitimes
militärisches Ziel". Getroffen wurden ausschließlich Zivilisten. Zehn
Menschen starben, 30 wurden verletzt. Rechtsanwalt Dost verklagt
Deutschland als Nato-Mitglied auf Schadenersatz - im Namen von
Hinterbliebenen und Versehrten aus Varvarin. "Ich bin froh, dass wir das
endlich bei Gericht haben", sagt der Ost-Jurist.
Zunächst müssen die Richter allerdings entscheiden, ob sie sich
überhaupt zuständig fühlen. Eine komplizierte Sache. Die Bundesregierung
jedenfalls winkte im Spätsommer ab, als Dost seine Forderung direkt
vorbrachte. Zwar hieß es in einem Brief aus dem
Verteidigungsministerium, man bedaure "das bei der Zivilbevölkerung der
Stadt Varvarin verursachte Leid zutiefst".
Ansprüche ließen sich daraus aber nicht ableiten. Denn erstens könnten
Kriegsopfer nicht individuell klagen. Zweitens seien Deutsche an dem
Bombardement nicht direkt beteiligt gewesen. Eine "Gesamthaftung" für
Aktionen des westlichen Bündnisses bestehe nicht. Dost behauptet eben
das. Zudem glaubt der Berliner, beweisen zu können, dass deutsche
Militärs dem Angriff zugestimmt hätten.
Welche Fußangeln das internationale Recht bereithält, ließ sich kürzlich
an einem anderen Fall beobachten. Hinterbliebene von Journalisten, die
beim Angriff auf die Zentrale des jugoslawischen Fernsehens getötet
worden waren, hatten vor dem Europäischen Gerichtshof für Menschenrechte
gegen die europäischen Nato-Länder geklagt. Ihre Argumentation: Bei der
Attacke sei das in der Europäischen Menschenrechtskonvention verbriefte
Recht auf Leben verletzt worden. Die Straßburger Richter wiesen den
Antrag zurück, weil die Konvention nur auf dem Territorium von
Unterzeichnerstaaten gelte. Jugoslawien gehört nicht dazu.
Dost lässt sich durch die Ablehnung nicht entmutigen. Seine Klage stützt
sich auf eine andere Rechtsvorschrift, das Erste Zusatzprotokoll zu den
Genfer Verträgen von 1977. Das verpflichtet Soldaten, vor jedem
Militärschlag sicherzustellen, dass Zivilisten nicht "unverhältnismäßig"
in Mitleidenschaft gezogen werden. "Kollateralschäden" - bedauerlich,
aber nicht zu vermeiden - gebe es deshalb nach dem Völkerrecht überhaupt
nicht, meint Dost: "Das ist ein reiner Propagandabegriff."

Presseinformationen zu der Zivilrechtsklage jugoslawischer Staatsbürger
wegen Luftangriffen der NATO am 30. Mai 1999 in der serbischen
Kleinstadt Varvarin

I. Sachverhalt: die serbische Kleinstadt Varvarin (4000 Einwohner)
wurde am Sonntag, den 30. Mai 1999 zwischen 13:00 und 13:25 von zwei
Kampfflugzeugen der NATO attackiert. In zwei kurz hintereinander
folgenden Angriffswellen wurden auf eine alte Brücke (Baujahr 1924)
insgesamt 4 Raketen abgeschossen. Dabei kamen 10 Menschen ums Leben,
über 30 Personen wurden verletzt (sämtlichst Zivilpersonen). Das
jüngste Todesopfer war die damals 15jährige Sanja Milenkovic, die mit
zwei gleichaltrigen Freundinnen zu Fuß die Brücke überquerte.

II. Ziel der Klage: die Hinterbliebenen der 10 Todesopfer und 17
Schwerverletzte haben am 24. Dezember 2001 am Landgericht Berlin
Schadensersatzklage gegen die Bundesrepublik Deutschland erhoben. Mit
der Klage verfolgen die Kläger insbesondere folgende Ziele:
1. die Feststellung der Verletzung geltenden Kriegsrechts und somit
elementarster Menschenrechte;
2. die Feststellung der Verantwortlichkeit der Bundesrepublik
Deutschland für die Verletzung und Tötung von Zivilpersonen;
3. den Ausgleich der erlittenen Schäden und Folgeschäden (durch Zahlung
einer Geldentschädigung, die Klageforderungen belaufen sich auf über 8
Millionen DM).

III. Rechtsgrundlage der Klage: sind die Verletzung der allgemeinen
Regeln des humanitären Völkerrechts, so die Genfer Abkommen vom 12.
August 1959 und insbesondere die Verletzung des Zusatzprotokolls I über
den Schutz der Opfer internationaler bewaffneter Konflikte vom 8. Juni
1977 (vgl. BGBl Teil II, Seite 1551), ratifiziert durch die
Bundesrepublik Deutschland und somit unmittelbar geltendes Recht für
Deutschland.
Das Zusatzprotokoll I enthält das strikte Angriffsverbot für alle an
einem bewaffneten Konflikt beteiligten Parteien auf die
Zivilbevölkerung, einzelne Zivilpersonen und zivile Objekte. Es
verbietet den Angriff auf unverteidigte Orte und Angriffe ohne
Vorwarnung.
Es verpflichtet die an einem bewaffneten Konflikt beteiligten Parteien
vor einem Angriff aufzuklären, ob durch einen Angriff Zivilbevölkerung
und zivile Objekte in Mitleidenschaft gezogen werden und verpflichtet
sie für diesen Fall, von einem Angriff abzusehen. Alle diese
Rechtsnormen wurden bei dem Luftangriff auf Varvarin verletzt, denn:
- die Stadt Varvarin lag außerhalb von Kampfgebieten (ca. 200 Kilometer
vom Kosovo entfernt), in ihr waren keine militärischen Einheiten
stationiert, die Stadt war auch nicht von militärischen Transporten
tangiert, die nächstgelegene Kaserne befindet sich ca. 22 Kilometer von
der Stadt entfernt;
- es handelt sich um eine ausschließlich von der Zivilbevölkerung zivil
genutzte und zudem unverteidigte Stadt;
- dem Luftangriff ging keine Warnung voraus.

IV. Die Bundesrepublik Deutschland trägt (auch) für den
kriegsrechtswidrigen Luftangriff auf Varvarin unmittelbar
Verantwortung. Sie hatte Kenntnis von dem beabsichtigten Angriff und
hat sich darüber hinaus mit dem Angriff ausdrücklich einverstanden
erklärt. Das ergibt sich aus den Erklärungen der deutschen Regierung
und eines deutschen Generals über die Zielplanung in der NATO und das
Zustimmungserfordernis aller Mitgliedstaaten als Voraussetzung für den
tatsächlichen Angriff:

1. nach Auskunft der deutschen Regierung im Deutschen Bundestag wurde
die sogenannte Zielplanung durch die Organe der NATO vorgenommen.
Mangels eigener Aufklärungsmittel in der NATO stellten die
Mitgliedsstaaten die dafür erforderlichen Informationen den Organen der
NATO zur Verfügung (Bundestagsdrucksache 14/1788, dort unter I., Seite
3).
Auf Grundlage dieser Zuarbeiten nahm die NATO die sogenannte
Zielauswahl vor. Die für Angriffe in Betracht kommenden Ziele wurden
auf sogenannten Ziellisten zusammengestellt.
Anschließend stimmten die NATO - Mitgliedsstaaten die Zielauswahl
zwischen den NATO - Mitgliedsstaaten ab (vgl. Antwort der deutschen
Regierung vom 28.3.2001 auf eine Große Anfrage im Deutschen Bundestag,
14.Wahlperiode, Drucksache 14/5677, dort Antwort auf die Frage unter
Nr. 42, S. 35);

2. der deutsche Generalleutnant Walter Jertz erklärte in diesem
Zusammenhang, daß zum einen zwischen allen Staaten der NATO zu den
beabsichtigten Luftoperationen gegen die auf den Ziellisten
zusammengestellten Zielobjekten Übereinstimmung erzielt werden mußte
und zum anderen Ziele von den =Ziellisten gestrichen wurden, wenn nur
einer der Staaten sein =Einverständnis mit der Luftoperation
verweigerte:
»(Die NATO) besteht aus 19 Staaten, und die Führungsebene setzt sich
aus 19 Nationen zusammen. Ihre militärischen Vorstellungen und Wünsche
mußten die einzelnen Nationen vor einer Militäroperation einbringen und
mit den Partnern abstimmen. Auch in der Zielauswahl und der Frage,
welche Ziele überhaupt angegriffen werden durften, mußten die
Beteiligten vorher übereinstimmen. Wenn eine Nation mit einem Ziel
nicht einverstanden war, wurde es von der Liste gestrichen.« (vgl.
Interview mit Generalleutnant Jertz, »Focus«, Heft 41/2000)

V. Der Luftangriff auf Varvarin war ein vorsätzlicher Angriff auf die
Zivilbevölkerung und zivile Objekte. Es war beabsichtigt, Zivilpersonen
zu verletzen und zu töten.
Denn zum Zeitpunkt des Angriffs befanden sich ca. 3500 Menschen in
unmittelbarer Nähe der Brücke. Wer unter diesen Umständen ohne jede
Vorwarnung mit modernsten Kampfflugzeugen völlig ahnungslose Menschen
mit zwei Raketen extremsten Wirkungsgrades in einer 1. Angriffswelle
beschießt, handelt in Tötungsabsicht. Und wer dann nur wenige Minuten
später in einer 2. Angriffswelle nochmals zwei Raketen abschießt, kann
sich den Vorwurf menschenverachtenden und menschenrechtsverachtenden
Verhaltens nicht entziehen.

VI. Auf Pressekonferenzen der NATO in Brüssel am 31. Mai und 1. Juni
1999 wurde der Angriff auf Varvarin als militärisch legitim bezeichnet,
ohne weitere Erklärungen abzugeben. Die Bundesrepublik Deutschland hat
über ihr Verteidigungsministerium ausdrücklich versichern lassen, daß
das bei der Zivilbevölkerung der Stadt Varvarin verursachte Leid
zutiefst bedauert werden würde und gleichzeitig die Anerkennung
individueller Schadenersatzforderungen der Opfer abgelehnt. Zur
Begründung wurde unter anderem ausgeführt, »... das Verhalten der
Piloten bei der Zerstörung der Brücke von Varvarin (ließe sich nicht)
der Bundesrepublik Deutschland zurechnen.«
Klageerhebung war daher geboten.

Vesna Milenkovic (Mutter der getöteten Sanja Milenkovic, Klägerin und
Sprecherin für alle Opfer aus Varvarin), Rechtsanwalt Ulrich Dost
(Prozeßbevollmächtigter der Kläger).

Für die Prozeßführung sind die Kläger auf Spenden angewiesen. Das
Landgericht Berlin hat den Streitwert erwartungsgemäß auf 4.155.541,80
EUR und den Gerichtskostenvorschuß auf 42.189,25 EUR festgesetzt. Erst
nach Zahlung des Gerichtskostenvorschusses wird die Klage an den
Prozeßgegner zugestellt. Kontoinhaber des Spendenkonto ist die
Vereinigung Demokratischer Juristen e.V.,
Kontonummer: 33 52 20 14, BLZ: 100 500 00 (Berliner Sparkasse),
Stichwort: »Schadenersatzklage NATO - Kriegsopfer«.

In questo testo, che speriamo di poter presto tradurre in italiano, il
Prof. Oskar Kovac, docente di Economia a Belgrado ed esponente dell'SPS,
spiega la liquidazione delle quattro principali banche jugoslave
da un punto di vista molto concreto.

O LIKVIDACIJE

Mislimo da je odluka guvernera o
stecaju i odredjivanju likvidacionih
upravnika za te cetiri najvece banke
losa odluka, da je suprotna interesima
i gradjana i drzave, zato sto nema
suverene i samostalne nacionalne privrede
bez sopstvenog bankarskog sistema. A
posto je ovo bila kicma bankarskog
sistema Jugoslavije, onda je potpuno
jasno da cemo posle njihovog nestanka
ili cemo imati bankarski sistem koji ce
biti u tudjim rukama, ili cemo imati
bankarski sistem koji ne moze da
funkcionise, a samim tim nece moci da
funkcionise ni privreda.
U raspravama koje su tekle, vec od 3.
januara pa na ovamo, stvar se dosta
politizuje, dosta vulgarizuje. Ja to ne
bih zeleo, ali moram da vam kazem da
probleme sa bankarskim sistemom,
probleme sanacije banaka ima vise od 100
zemalja u svetu i da je to postalo veoma
frekventna pojava u svetskoj
privredi u poslednjih dvadesetak godina.
Svako od vas ko hoce da se bavi
istrazivackim novinarstvom neka na
Internet sajtu Svetske banke pronadje
bazu podataka koju su oni posebno
uredili sa vise od 100 slucajeva u vise
od 100 zemalja u kojima su imali probleme
sa sanacijom bankarskog sistema, da
vidite, dakle, da je to problem sa kojim
se povremeno srecu sve drzave, pa
nije nikakvo cudo da se s tim srecemo i
mi posle 10 godina sankcija.
Da ne biste mislili da ima drzava koje
mogu da izbegnu ovaj problem, ja cu
vam reci: Sjedinjene Americke Drzave su
imale gubitke u svojim stedionicama
u visini od 100 milijardi dolara, pa ih
je drzava sanirala. Naravno, 100
milijardi dolara je u njihovom domasaju,
za nas nije. Ali je cinjenica da su
problem imale sa svojim stedionicama i
to je kostalo njihovu drzavu, da ih
sanira, 100 milijardi dolara. Japan je
vec duzi niz godina u ozbiljnim
ekonomskim teskocama i kod njih ta tzv.
kontaminirana aktiva banaka ili
nenaplativa potrazivanja banaka iznose
preko 500 milijardi dolara. U
zemljama Latinske Amerike, kako u kojoj,
ta aktiva, ta dubioza u bankama
koja treba da bude predmet sanacije se
krece izmedju polovine i cetvrtine
drustvenog proizvoda.

I sada da dodjemo na Jugoslaviju.
Prvo, problem tzv. dubioznih
potrazivanja banaka ili takvih stavki u
bilansima banaka se kod nas takodje
najmanje 20 godina dobro poznaje. Prvi
put je za vreme vlade Milke Planinc
napravljena procena koliko ti gubici,
potencijalni, u bankama iznose. Drugi
put je to uradjeno za vreme vlade Ante
Markovica. Svetski ekspert De Huan je
dosao i procenio te velicine. Znaci, sve
su te cinjenice poznate, sve su
postojale, dakle, pre mnogo godina i
prakticno nisu rezultat poslovanja ni
jugoslovenske privrede, ni
jugoslovenskog bankarstva u poslednjih
10 godina.
Zasto? Zato sto je u bilansima ovih
banaka o kojima govorimo najveci deo
tzv. devizni podbilans. Osamdeset ili 90
posto bilansne sume u tim bankama
su devizne obaveze i potrazivanja, samo
ostatak su dinarske obaveze i
dinarska potrazivanja. A devizne obaveze
i devizna potrazivanja su nastala
do 1991. godine. Za vreme sankcija nije
bilo nikakvog zaduzivanja u
inostranstvu, jer je najveci deo duga
Jugoslavija nakupila tako sto se
zaduzila kod inostranih banaka koje su
se posle slozile u Londonski klub,
kod inostranih vlada koje su se slozile
i Pariski klub, kod Svetske banke i
Monetarnog fonda i to sve za vreme
prethodne SFRJ. Tada je u toj drzavi
svako svakoga kontrolisao, niko nista
nije mogao da uradi bez saglasnosti
drugih. Znaci, nije rec ni o kakvim
greskama koje su se omakle, nego svesnoj
politici jedne drzave koja je smatrala
da tako treba da finansira svoj
privredni razvoj. I od 1991. godine nema
nikakvog povecanja tog duga. Znaci,
niko posle 1991. godine nije povecavao
dug drzave SFRJ prema inostranstvu,
iako se ta cifra stvarno povecala.
Ali, zasto se povecala? Zato sto je za
vreme sankcija taksimetar
otkucavao, obracunavane su kamate na taj
dug, kamate za zakasnjenje u
otplati tog duga, raznorazne zatezne i
kaznene kamate, tako je taj dug,
prema podacima koje je Monetarni fond
objavio u zajednickom papiru sa
jugoslovenskom vladom, bio krajem
decembra 2000. godine 11 milijardi i 460
miliona dolara. Od toga duga onaj deo
koji je trebao vec da se vrati, a nije
vracen, iznosi devet milijardi i 400
miliona dolara. A od tih devet
milijardi i 400 miliona dolara glavnica
je pet milijardi i 400 miliona
dolara, a razlika, znaci cetiri
milijarde, kamata. Za tu kamatu je dug
porastao od 1991. na ovamo, a ne zbog
toga sto bi neko uzimao novi dug. I da
je hteo nije mogao, jer smo bili pod
sankcijama. To je glavni deo bilansa
ovih banaka o kojima danas razgovaramo.
Prema tome, sve je to nastalo jos u
prethodnoj drzavi, a posledice tek sada
dozivljavamo.
Znate i sami da je tih poslednjih
deset godina, dakle u uporedjenju sa
ovih 11 milijardi i 460 duga prema
inostranstvu koji nije sav ni dospeo,
prema procenama Savezne vlade, steta od
sankcija je bila 140 milijardi
dolara. Prema procenama raznih
institucija koje se uglavnom slazu steta
od bombardovanja samo na nekretninama u
Srbiji bila je 37 milijardi dolara,
tako da je nemoguce raspravljati o
jednoj stvari, a nemati u vidu drugu. I
taj problem sa kojim se mi sada
suocavamo ne moze da se resava zatvaranjem
banaka. Sve druge zemlje koje su se
suocile sa problemom sredjivanja stanja
u bankarstvu uvek su povezivale stanje u
privredi i u preduzecima sa stanjem
u bankama. Jer, obaveze banaka su u ovom
slucaju prema inostranstvu, ali
banke nisu same trosile te kredite. Te
kredite su banke posredovale
preduzecima, to su uglavnom bili
dugorocni zajmovi za finansiranje
investicija. Duznici za te kredite su
preduzeca. Banke nemaju svoj devizni
priliv iz koga bi to vracale. Prema
tome, mogu da vrate samo ako preduzeca
rade, ako stvaraju devizni priliv,
ako im preduzeca vracaju taj dug, onda
ce banke biti u stanju da vrate dug prema
inostranstvu. Prema tome, ima takodje vec
jedno petnaestak godina da niko u svetu
ne razgovara o sanaciji banaka, a da ne
razgovara istovremeno o sanaciji
duznika tih banaka. Jer je poenta da se
prvo osposobe duznici da vracaju
sredstva bankama, a onda banke da se
saniraju, da budu u stanju da
izvrsavaju svoje obaveze i prema drugima
u zemlji i prema onima u
inostranstvu. Drugim recima, sve do
nedavno, koncept je bio i tako se
Narodna banka Jugoslavije ponasala, da
se dugovi Jugoslavije prema
inostranstvu koji su za vreme sankcija
mirovali, apsolutno se nisu
otplacivali. Bilo je slucajeva da smo
hteli da placamo pa nam je bilo
zabranjeno da placamo. Ti dugovi koji su
mirovali vodili su se uz punu
saglasnot Narodne banke Jugoslavije u
takozvanoj vanbilansnoj evidenciji
poslovnih banaka. Niti su preduzeca
placala bankama, jer je spoljni dug u
celini mirovao. Racunalo se da kad se
sankcije okoncaju, kada se postigne
sporazum sa stranim poveriocima o tom
dugu, o nekom reprogramiranju ili
refinansiranju tog duga, da ce onda
refinansirane ili reprogramirane sume da
se upisu u bilanske banaka u,
naravno, mnogo udobnijim rokovima
otplate. To znaci da bi godisnje obaveze
i banaka i drzave bile manje i tek kad
se to uradi, onda to isto da se ugovori
prema domacim preduzecima koji su
krajnji duznici. Ti domaci subjekti bi,
takodje, dobili mnogo povoljnije uslove
otplate duga i verovatno umanjen dug
ako dodje do bilo kakvog otpisa duga, pa
onda sa tom novom situacijom odnosa
izmedju preduzeca i banaka i banaka
prema refinansiranom spoljnom dugu, sa
tim novim stanjem da se udje u problem
sanacije banaka. To je normalan
postupak svuda u svetu, to je do nedavno
bio stav Narodne banke Jugoslavije.
Inace, bilansi banaka su bili poznati,
svi su podaci poznati. Bilanse
banaka mozete da zatrazite u Udruzenju
banaka Jugoslavije, nije tajna. Vec
odavno, bar deset godina, u Jugoslaviji
postoji Zakon o reviziji ili
oditingu, a prve su bile banke duzne da
svoje bilanse odituju i da ih tako
oditovane podnesu svojim skupstinama na
usvajanje. To se radi vec dugi niz
godina. Ti oditori, a danas su svi
svetski oditori prisutni u Beogradu, su
za velike pare oditovali bilanse banaka.
Prosecno su naplacivali izmedju 130
i 200 hiljada dolara po bilansu jedne
banke. Prema tome, svi ti podaci
postoje. I svi ti podaci su provereni,
procenjivani pre nego sto su isli na
skupstinu akcionara tih banaka koje su
svake godine odlucivale o
celishodnosti, zakonitosti, efikasnosti
poslovanja banaka.
Prema tome, sto se cinjenica tice, sve
je poznato, sve se zna. Sta se
promenilo? Promenilo se stanoviste
Narodne banke Jugoslavije. Sredinom ove
godine, prvo je izmenjen Zakon o
sanaciji i stecaju banaka i Zakon o
racunovodstvu, a zatim je Narodna banka
naredila oditorima ili revizorima,
da ono sto su do sada vodili van bilansa
banaka, te obaveze prema
inostranstvu, vecim delom sada vrate u
bilanse banaka, izuzev Pariskog i
Londonskog kluba. I kad su one, naravno,
te obaveze upisale u svoje bilanse
onda je moralo da se postavi pitanje - a
sta je sa njihovim potrazivanjima
po tim istim kreditima od domace
privrede. Konstatovalo se da posle deset
godina sankcija i bombardovanja jedan
deo toga preduzeca nece biti u stanju
da plate, pa je bankama onda naredjeno
da to iskazu kao gubitak i samim tim
je nastala situacija koja dozvoljava da
se banke stave u sanaciju. Doneto je
resenje o sanaciji, napravljena je
racunica koju mozete da vidite u svakoj
odluci za ove cetiri banke pojedinacno.
Odluka o sanaciji je doneta jer je
sredinom ove godine stanje bilo
takvo da se sanacija vise
isplacivala nego stecaj. U slucaju
stecaja bi troskovi bili veci.
Naravno, mi smatramo da je takav
postupak bio preuranjen i los, jer jos
nije izvedeno definitivno i novo stanje
u obavezama Jugoslavije i jugoslovenskih
banaka prema inostranstvu. Dakle, da
je sanaciju bankarskog sistema trebalo
preduzeti sa tim novodefinisanim
obavezama, a ne sa starim
obavezama, a da je istovremeno trebalo
duznicko-poverilacke odnose izmedju
preduzeca i banaka resavati u
Jugoslaviji. Oni od vas koji su se
specijalizovali za privredu setice se da
je pre jedno dve godine u
Privrednoj komori Srbije usvojen Kodeks
o resavanju medjusobnih
duznicko-poverilackih odnosa preduzeca i
banaka i to je trebao da bude neka
vrsta domaceg reprograma na osnovu koga
bi preduzeca priznala i uredno
izvrsavala svoje obaveze prema bankama,
a onda banke prema inostranstvu. Tek
da je ta cela prica zavrsena, znaci, da
se stanje banaka sagleda posle
reprograma spoljnog duga, da se
istovremeno uradi domaci reprogram,
odnosno uredjivanje odnosa sa preduzecima,
posle toga ima smisla razgovarati o sanaciji
bankarskog sistema, a ne bez toga.

Sta se u medjuvremenu desilo? U
medjuvremenu smo dobili obecanje od
Pariskog kluba, nigde toga nema
napisano, da je Pariski klub pristao na
otpis duga, a znamo da je sa poslednjeg
susreta jugoslovenske delegacije sa
Pariskim klubom proizasao rezultat da
dve velike i znacajne zemlje nisu
potpisale to navodno stanoviste Pariskog
kluba da su zemlje spremne da
otpisu 66 posto jugoslovenskog duga. A
ta navodna cinjenica, i pretpostavka
da ce to da uradi i Londonski klub, bila
je osnova za donosenje odluka
Narodne banke u stavljanju ove cetiri
banke u stecaj. Zasto? Zato sto im je
naredjeno da sada jednu trecinu duga
prema Pariskom klubu i jednu trecinu
duga prema Londonskom klubu upisu u
svoje bilanse, znaci da povecaju svoje
obaveze prema inostranstvu, iako je to
tek obecanje i nema jos uvek niceg
cvrstog na papiru. Dakle, naredjeno je
da vestacki povecaju svoje obaveze, a
istovremeno nista nije uradjeno da
preduzeca prema bankama takodje potvrde
te svoje obaveze. Naprotiv, receno je -
posto preduzeca verovatno nece biti u
stanju da plate ni tu jednu
trecinu, onda proglasavamo da su
ove cetiri banke u jos vecoj dubiozi sa
jos vecim gubicima, jer ce obaveze
po ovoj jednoj trecini Pariskog i
Londonskog kluba da padnu na banke, a one
to nece moci da naplate od preduzeca. To
je bio argument da se sada te banke
oteraju u stecaj pa je napravljena
racunica da ce stecaj manje kostati nego
eventualna sanacija tih banaka.
Naravno, tu ima citav niz problema.
Prvo, u Pariskom i Londonskom klubu su
mnoge druge banke iz Jugoslavije, ne
samo ove cetiri. Indikativno je da su
samo ove cetiri banke dobile naredjenje
da u svoje bilanse upisu jednu
trecinu obaveza prema Pariskom i
Londonskom klubu. Druge banke nisu
dobile.
Pa, po kom osnovu se moze da vrsi takva
diskriminacija? Zasto drugim bankama
takodje nije naredjeno da to upisu u
svoje bilanse. Ocigledno zato sto to
jos nije nikakva cinjenica.
Dakle, Pariski klub jeste pominjao
obecanje, ali se dve zemlje protive i
nema nikakvog konacnog resenja, a
Londonski klub je jos na dugackom stapu.
Znate da je poslednji sastanak sa njima
proizasao bez rezultata. Pa, da li
moze da se donese bilo kakvo upravno
resenje, kao sto je Narodna banka
donela o pocetku stecaja u ove cetiri
banke, na bazi rekla-kazala. Vidi se,
dakle, da je ocigledna namera da se ove
banke teraju u stecaj, vidi se i po
tome sto je samo njima naredjeno da to
upisu u svoje bilanse, a ne i drugim
bankama u Jugoslaviji koje takodje imaju
obaveze prema Londonskom i Pariskom
klubu.
Zasto mi podrzavamo stanoviste radnika
bankarskog i finansijskog sektora,
zasto mislimo da ce njihova tuzba
saveznom sudu uroditi plodom i zasto
treba tako da postupe? Zato sto je to samo
pocetak nevolja. One ce se siriti i na
preduzeca i na druge banke. Na preduzeca
ce se siriti ovako. Cak i ako ove
banke stvarno budu oterane u likvidaciju
onaj ko preuzme obaveze ovih banaka
preuzima i njihova potrazivanja. To
znaci da ce preduzeca umesto bankama
dugovati onome ko ce izvrsavati obaveze
ovih cetiri likvidiranih banaka.
Samo jedna od tih banaka ima
potrazivanja od preduzeca, i to utuzena
potrazivanja od tih preduzeca, u visini
od 207 milijardi dinara.
Potrazivanja su pokrivena hipotekom na
zgrade, opremu, drugu imovinu itd,
ili nekom drugom valjanim zalogom. Ko
garantuje, dakle, preduzecima o kojima
se radi da pravni sledbenik ovih banaka
nece aktivirati sve te hipoteke,
zaloge itd, i za 207 milijardi u samo
jednoj banci, a ima ih cetiri, oterati
ta preduzeca u stecaj, prodati im imovinu,
zatvoriti preduzeca i otpustiti radnike.
Nema nikakve garancije. Zato mi smatramo
da je ovo krupna stvar. Mi brinemo o svim
radnicima, o svim preduzecima, ne samo o
bankarskim radnicima.
Drugi razlog je sledeci: Ako neka
banka misli da su samo ove cetiri ispale
zrtve, a da su one spasene, grdno se
varaju. Rekao sam vec, Londonski i
Pariski klub imaju i druge jugoslovenske
banke. Sa Londonskim klubom je
svojevremeno kada su ti zajmovi
zakljucivani sklopljen sporazum koji
sadrzi klauzulu solidarne odgovornosti.
Tamo bukvalno pise cross default clause, a
to znaci da kada jedna od jugoslovenskih
banaka ne izvrsi svoju obavezu
prema Londonskom klubu, tu obavezu
solidarno izvrsavaju sve druge banke.
Kada je refinansiran taj dug prema
Londonskom klubu 1992. godine, sve
jugoslovenske banke i Narodna banka su
potpisale ugovor da ce, takodje,
solidarno da budu duznici prema
Londonskom klubu, a mnoge banke su
medjusobno, takodje, sklopile ugovore o
solidarnoj odgovornosti.
Sta to znaci? Ako ove cetiri banke
budu likvidirale i ne budu placale
svoje obaveze prema Londonskom klubu, te
obaveze padaju na ove preostale
banke. Hoce li one biti u stanju da
plate jednu trecinu obaveza prema
Londonskom klubu, iako Londonski klub
uopste ne pominje nikakav otpis!
Verovatno nece biti u stanju. Sta to
znaci? Hoce li one doci na red za
likvidaciju? To niko ne moze da vam
kaze, ali je velika sansa da ce te
banke, zbog posledica likvidacije ove
cetiri banke, takodje doci na dnevni
red. Ili ce biti sanirane ili ce i one
otici u stecaj.
Na ovaj proces je ocigledno uticao i
spoljni faktor. Ja imam pred sobom,
mogu da vam citiram iz izvestaja Misije
Medjunarodnog monetarnog fonda koji
je objavljen na Internetu u oktobru ove
godine, da je u razgovoru sa
jugoslovenskim vlastima bilo razlicitih
misljenja o tome da li banke treba
sanirati ili likvidirati. Misija fonda i
banke bila je za to da se ove
cetiri ili pet banaka likvidiraju.
Znaci, jugoslovenska strana je prihvatila
to stanoviste i svesrdno krenula u to.
Ali, i pored toga, nije sasvim jasno
ko taj posao ovde u Jugoslaviji radi.
Nesto od toga vec je prodrlo u novine,
a one od vas koji hoce da se bave
istrazivackim novinarstvom, evo, upucujem
na to da se raspitaju u krugovima vlade,
Narodne banke, Savezne agencije za
sanaciju banaka, ko su izvesna gospoda
Dzordz Mulino, Dejvid Parker, pa Bil
Tomas, koji pisu, ako se ne varam,
direktoru Savezne agencije za sanaciju
banaka gospodji ili gospodjici Vesni
Djenic ili Djinic, 12. decembra, sta
treba uraditi, korak po korak, sa
sanacijom banaka. Cak i da izvesnog
gospodina Mrvosevica
treba angazovati za sefa bezbednosti
u celom tom procesu, jer ako se to ne
uradi, kako se kaze, moze da se
zamisli socijalno nezadovoljstvo koje ce
se pojaviti.
Bilo bi jako interesantno cuti ko su
ta gospoda, kome oni odgovaraju, kome
neko njih moze da tuzi? Isto tako, prema
tome, samo je fikcija da je 3.
januara doneta odluka o likvidaciji
banaka, ocigledno se 12. decembra 2001.
godine vec pravio detaljan scenario,
korak po korak, tacno sta sve treba
preduzeti, ko treba da budu likvidacioni
upravnici u tim bankama itd.
Postoji jos jedan tekst i to biste isto
mogli da proverite, ko je izvesna
gospodja ili gospodjica Djurdjica
Ognjenovic koja je jos 7. decembra
takodje razradila metodologiju kako iz
bilansa, odnosno sa racuna ovih banaka
preneti depozite gradjana i preduzeca na
Postansku stedionicu kako bi se to
pocelo isplacivati itd. A ako se ne
varam, tada je jos davana izjava da o
sudbini tih banaka nece moci nista da se
saopsti do kraja marta dokle tece
stand bdz aranzman. A 7. decembra
gospodja Djurdjica vec precizno obrazlaze
kako ce se to uraditi i u svom pismu
vrlo jasno kaze da se to odnosi na pet
banaka koje ce ici u likvidaciju. Pa,
voleo bih da mi otkrijete i ko je ta
gospodja i u kakvoj je
vezi sa nasom vladom, sa nasim
vlastima i kome ona odgovara.
U samom resenju guvernera ima dosta
propusta. Same banke rade na tome da,
kao sto pise u pravnoj pouci na kraju
resenja na osnovu clana 14 Zakona o
sanaciji itd. na ova resenja guvernera
podnesu tuzbe Saveznom sudu u roku od
30 dana. Ja verujem da ce banke podneti
te tuzbe i da ce onda, na kraju
krajeva, poceti stvar da se razmatra
kako je to red u pravnoj drzavi.
Koincidencija je da ce te tuzbe stici u
savezni sud koji je svojim pismom od
19.12.2001. godine obavestio Saveznu
skupstinu o sledecem - da Narodna banka
Jugoslavije u svojim upravnim postupcima
krsi propise, da sprecava
ostvarivanje zakonitosti, ugrozava
pravni poredak, nanosi stetu strankama u
postupku, otezava i usporava
ostvarivanje monetarne politike i drugih
funkcija Narodne banke Jugoslavije, da
je savezni sud u 19 predmeta ponistio
resenja guvernera Narodne banke
Jugoslavije o oduzimanju dozvole za rad i
pokretanju postupka sanacije nad bankama
i da zbog toga preporucuje Saveznoj
skupstini da se Skupstina zainteresuje
i sagleda stanje u Narodnoj banci
Jugoslavije sa gledista
zakonitosti njenog rada. Ovaj sud koji
je, ocigledno, dobro upoznat sa metodima
rada u Narodnoj banci, ima sanse da
dobije tuzbe ovih banaka i da ih sa
velikim poznavanjem sustine stvari
razmatra.

GLAS JAVNOSTI 6-7 januar 2002

Makijavelijev nauk

Ako se u duhu one narodne - po jutru se
dan poznaje - kaµe da se po prvom novogodi±njem
potezu vladaju?ih dosmanlija poznaje cela
godina, onda se u Novoj godini ni?emu dobrome ne
moµemo nadati. Re? je naravno o
likvidaciji ?etiri najve?e banke: Beogradske
banke, Beobanke, Investbanke i Jugobanke.

Kao presudan razlog za ste?aj pomenutih
banaka navodi se njihova nesposobnost da trenutno
raspoloµivim novcem ispune dospele
obaveze. A kada takav trenutak nastupi, onda je ste?aj
neizbeµan. Tim povodom postavlja se vi±e
neugodnih pitanja.
Najpre, kako su uop±te ove banke postale
nelikvidne? Tako ±to su, naj?e±?e po odluci
mo?nih politi?kih ?inilaca, a re?e shodno
vlastitim pogre±nim procenama, davale kredite i
ulagale u preduze?a za koja se s velikom sigurno±?u
moglo o?ekivati da ?e propasti, a da uzete
zajmove ne?e mo?i da vrate. Dodu±e, sve ove banke
uzimale su odgovaraju?a jemstva - supergarancije
drugih privredno-pravnih subjekata ili
hipoteku na nekretnine duµnika.

Pa ±ta su privredni sudovi trebali da
u?ine da bi pomenute banke naplatile svoja
potraµivanja? Trebalo je da blagovremeno pokre?u
ste?ajni postupak i likvidiraju nesolventna
preduze?a kako bi iz njihove
ste?ajne mase banke mogle da
naplate bar deo svojih potraµivanja. Tako se radi
u zdravoj privredi.

Umesto toga, G17, ?iji ljudi drµe klju?ne
poloµaje u Narodnoj banci, Saveznoj i Republi?koj
vladi, doneo je kobnu odluku da umesto mno±tva
nesolventnih duµnika likvidira njihove najve?e
poverioce - ?etiri ve? pomenute banke. Pri
tom se rukovodio najve?ma politi?kim razlozima.

Da je prema dospelosti potraµivanja
zatvarao nesolventna preduze?a, do sada bi bar
80.000 radnika ostalo bez posla. G17 nije imao
petlju za takvu odluku, pa je umesto duµnika
re±io da zatvori njihove banke poverioce i ostavi
bez posla 8.000 radnika.

Drugi razlog za ovakvu "politiku" jeste
tzv. privatizacija. Nesolventna preduze?a ne?e
niko da kupi, a svi ho?e da kupe preduze?a koja,
poput Beo?inske cementare, dobro posluju. No, ako
se jednim potezom pera likvidiraju njihovi
poverioci, i nesolventna preduze?a postaju
solventna, pa ?e pre ili posle na?i kupca.

Tre?i razlog je najverovatnije sadrµan u
obavezuju?im "preporukama" Me?unarodnog
monetarnog fonda, koje G17 provodi kao
na±u drµavnu politiku. Po svoj prilici, na±oj
drµavi je namenjen status me?unarodnog protektorata
i ekonomske kolonije Zapada. A takvim
nesamoupravnim teritorijama nisu potrebne
velike doma?e banke, koje su svuda u svetu
krvotok privrede. Otuda zatvaranje ?etiri najve?e
banke moµe predstavljati ra±?i±?avanje prostora
za pojavu filijala velikih stranih banaka u
koje ?e doma?e stanovni±tvo, ba± kao i u
Argentini, imati ve?e poverenje.

Na posletku, valja primetiti da u ovoj
dramati?noj likvidaciji beogradskog bankarstva ne
u?estvuje obligatni Zoran ?in?i?. Kako se
javno hvalio da je ?itao Makijevilija, valja re?i
da je pone±to od tog velikog politi?kog pisca i
nau?io. Tako, po Makijaveliju, vladar mora da
bude veoma pritvoran i dvoli?an, pa stoga
drugima treba da poveri ?injenje neprijatnih
stvari, a da prijatne zadrµi za sebe. Nema naravno
neprijatnije stvari od zatvaranja beogradskog
bankarstva i isterivanja njegovih zaposlenih na ulicu.
Taj prljavi posao poveren je predstraµi iz G17,
dok ?in?i? putuje po svetu i pro±iruje
saradnju na±e privrede sa stranim preduze?ima.

Jedino ±to nije otkrio jo± vaµniji
Makijavelijev nauk da su okrutna dela dobro
upotrebljena ako se izvr±e odjednom, a
potom se ne nastavljaju nego se preobra?aju
u stvari ±to je mogu?e korisnije za podanike.
Da je odmah po dolasku na vlast odjednom
likvidirao sve nesolventne firme, a
njihove zaposlene izbacio na ulicu, i da
je istoga trena poslao u Hag sve koje sada
namerava da po±alje, narod bi to moµda prihvatio kao
nuµno prevratni?ko zlo, posle kojeg slede samo
dobra i blagotvorna dela. Umesto toga, izgleda da
su ?in?i? i njegove dosmanlije re±ili da nas
malo-pomalo zasipaju isklju?ivo okrutnim i
nepopularnim merama - u?estalim zatvaranjem
preduze?a i banaka, izbacivanjem na ulicu
njihovih zaposlenih i povremenim slanjem u Hag
na±ih sunarodnika i drµavljana. Ako je
verovati Makijaveliju, tako se dugo ne moµe
vladati.

Una dottrina machiavellica

Se, nello spirito del proverbio popolare "il buon
giorno si vede dal mattino", si ritiene che, dalla prima
mossa dell'anno nuovo, sia possibile riconoscere cosa
faranno tutto l'anno i governanti Dos-ottomani, allora, per
l'anno nuovo, non possiamo sperare in niente di buono. Si
tratta, ovviamente, della liquidazione delle quattro banche
maggiori: Beogradska banka, Beobanka, Investbanka e
Jugobanka.

Come ragione decisiva per considerare
inevitabile la bancarotta delle banche menzionate, si cita
la loro insolvenza, nei confronti degli impegni assunti, al
momento della loro prossima scadenza. E' quando si arriva
a un momento del genere che il fallimento diventa un fatto
inevitabile.

A tal proposito, vanno poste alcune domande spiacevoli.

Prima di tutto, come mai queste banche sono
diventate insolventi? Il più delle volte, sulla base di
decisioni derivanti da fattori politici di peso consistente
e, più raramente, in base a valutazioni sbagliate, venivano
offerti crediti e venivano effettuati investimenti presso
ditte da cui ci si poteva aspettare, con grande sicurezza,
che avrebbero fatto bancarotta, senza poter restituire i
crediti assegnati. Veramente, tutte queste banche assumevano
come garanti- supergaranti altri soggetti
economico-giuridici , oppure assumevano come garanzia
un'ipoteca immobiliare del debitore.

Allora, cosa dovevano fare i tribunali
commerciali per consentire alle banche menzionate di
incassare i loro crediti? Occorreva che esse aprissero a
tempo debito la procedura di fallimento e liquidassero le
ditte insolventi, perchè solo in questa maniera, dall'importo
complessivo del ricavato del loro fallimento, le banche
avrebbero potuto incassare almeno una parte dei propri
crediti. Così si agisce in un'economia sana.

Il gruppo G-17, che detiene di fatto poteri
decisivi in seno alla Banca Centrale, nel Governo federale e
in quello serbo, invece di mettere in liquidazione un grande
numero di debitori insolventi, ha deciso di mettere in
liquidazione i loro maggiori creditori, le quattro banche
sopra citate. Sono cioè state fatte delle scelte di ordine
politico.

Se il gruppo G-17 avesse proclamato la chiusura
delle ditte insolventi, alla scadenza dei crediti,
sarebbero rimasti, finora, senza lavoro, almeno 80.000
operai. I G-17 non hanno avuto il fegato di adottare una
tale soluzione e così, al posto dei debitori, hanno deciso
di chiudere le banche creditrici e di lasciare senza lavoro
8.000 dipendenti .

La seconda ragione per una "politica" del genere,
si trova nella strategia delle privatizzazioni. Nessuno
vuole acquistare ditte insolventi ma tutti vorrebbero
acquistare quelle ditte che, come la fabbrica di cemento di
Beocin, presentano una gestione redditizia. Però, se si
liquidano i loro creditori, con un tratto di penna, anche le
ditte insolventi diventeranno solventi, e così, prima o poi,
troveranno un compratore.

La terza ragione, probabilmente, va fatta risalire
alle "raccomandazioni" imposte dal FMI, che il gruppo G-17
traduce nella nostra politica statale. Presumibilmente, al nostro
paese è stato destinato lo status di protettorato internazionale
e di colonia economica dell'Occidente. Così come per
altri Paesi, anch'essi non ritenuti in grado di
autogestirsi, e per i quali non si ritiene pertanto
necessaria la esistenza di grandi banche nazionali,
che rappresentano, nel resto del mondo, l'apparato circolatorio
dell'economia. In conseguenza a tutto ciò si può ritenere
che la chiusura delle quattro maggiori banche possa
determinare un vuoto che aprirà gli spazi necessari
all'apparizione di filiali delle grandi banche straniere, in
cui la popolazione nazionale, proprio come in Argentina,
avrà una fiducia maggiore.

Infine, occorre notare come, in questa
liquidazione drammatica, non appaia apparentemente Zoran
Djindjic. Va detto che proprio lui, che si è vantato
pubblicamente di aver letto Machiavelli, ha imparato
qualcosa da quel grande scrittore politico. Infatti, secondo
Machiavelli, il principe deve essere molto falso ed ipocrita
e perciò agli altri deve affidare di fare le cose
sgradevoli, e per se deve tenere le cose gradevoli. Non c'è,
certo, cosa più sgradevole della liquidazione del sistema
bancario belgradese e del buttare sulla strada i suoi
impiegati. Questa sporca faccenda è affidata all'avanguardia
del G-17, mentre Djindjic viaggia dappertutto nel mondo e
allarga la collaborazione della nostra economia con le ditte
straniere.

L'unica cosa che Djindjic non ha scoperto e' quella
più importante in Machiavelli, e cioè che delle azioni crudeli
viene fatto un buon uso se si fanno tutte in una volta, e
poi non si praticano più, ma si trasformano in cose il più
possibile utili ai sudditi. Se, subito dopo la conquista
del potere, egli avesse liquidato, in una volta sola, tutte
le ditte insolventi e avesse cacciato i loro operai sulle
strade e inoltre, in quel momento, avesse consegnato all'Aja
tutti quelli che adesso ha l'intenzione di consegnare, forse
il popolo avrebbe potuto accettare tutto ciò come un male
rivoluzionario al quale avrebbero potuto seguire solo fatti
buoni e benefici. Viceversa, sembra che Djindjic e i suoi
Dos-ottomani abbiano deciso di ferirci con misure crudeli e
impopolari, con le chiusure frequenti delle banche e delle
ditte, con l'espulsione dei loro impiegati e con la consegna
periodica dei nostri connazionali. Se si crede a
Machiavelli, in questo modo non si può regnare a lungo.

Alla redazione di "Vesti" (Belgrado/Bad Vilbel)

Il vostro articolo "Bin Laden davanti al Tribunale",
del 21/12/01, non riporta una informazione completa in
relazione alla conferenza stampa ivi menzionata. Forse
per non mettere in agitazione il gran manovratore - lo
zio Sam?
L'organizzazione italiana "Nessuno tocchi Caino" e' una
ambigua organizzazione del Partito Radicale, cioe' del
tandem Pannella-Bonino, veri mercenari del Pentagono.
Non dimentichiamo che Pannella (*) e' colui il quale per
primo ando' da Tudjman ed indosso' in quell'occasione la
uniforme famigerata degli ustascia, e che questo tandem
si e' molto dato da fare per il "tribunale" USA dell'Aia.
"USA e getta". Questo e' stato considerato anche in un punto
della contestazione alla legalita' di quel tribunale, esposto
da un rinomato giurista canadese: questo "tribunale" fa
quello che gli pare, ovvero, come si dice dalle nostre
parti: "il cadi' ti accusa, il cadi' ti giudica".
L'informazione contenuta nell'articolo e' incompleta,
perche' la Carla del Ponte parlava soprattutto del "suo"
tribunale - e di chi altri se non di Milosevic? - mentre
il tribunale internazionale che voi citate e' proprio
quello che NON e' voluto dagli USA.
Invio in allegato l'articolo de "Il Manifesto" (21/12/2001),
nella parte in cui l'autore dell'articolo cita la domanda
della giornalista americana, domanda lasciata "cadere" dalla
Del Ponte. Quest'ultima "si scalda invece quando un collega
jugoslavo sventola le immagini dei bambini [anche albanesi]
uccisi dalle bombe della NATO, chiedendole perche' non sono
state acquisite come prove per trascinare in giudizio la
organizzazione nord-atlantica".
La risposta laconica della Del Ponte e' stata che questo
tribunale lavora su prove, e che le prove contro la NATO non
sono state allegate, "cosicche' l'inchiesta preliminare non
ci ha autorizzato ad aprire il fascicolo". Su questa
incredibile risposta l'autore del succitato articolo
ricorda come la Del Ponte abbia la memoria corta, avendo
dimenticato che i dossier con queste prove sono stati
presentati dalle organizzazioni Amnesty International e
Human Rights Watch.
Perche' Vesti passa sotto silenzio queste informazioni?

Un saluto

PS. Il Coordinamento Nazionale per la Jugoslavia ha diffuso
via internet l'invito della Sezione Italiana del Tribunale
Ramsey Clark a tutte le organizzazioni e persone jugoslave
a farci pervenire i dati sui malati ed i morti per le bombe

ha ricordato cio', egli ha risposto: "Se lei avesse indossato
quella divisa, io mi sarei inchinato dinanzi a lei".

Redakciji "Vesti"

Vas clanak "Bin Ladena pred Tribunal", od 21.12.01., ne daje
potpunu informaciju u vezi doticne konferencije za stampu.
Mozda zato da se nebi uznemirio veliki manovrator "ujka Sam"?!
Italijanska organizacija "Kainove ruke" je sumnjivo celjade
Radikalne stranke, t.j. "dvojca" Panele-Bonino, pravi placenici
Pentagona. Ne zaboraavimo da je Panela taj koji je prvi otiso
do Tudjmana i obukao tom prilikom ustasku uniformu, i da se taj
"dvojac" zdusno zalagao za Tribunal SAD-a. "USA e getta", sto u
literalnom prijevodu znaci "upotrebi i baci". Upravo to i u
jednoj tocki opovrgavanja legalnosti Tribunala iznosi znameniti
kanadski pravnik, t.j. da Tribunal radi sto hoce, ili kako se
u nasim krajevima kaze: "Kadija te tuzi, kadija te sudi".
Informacije clanka su nepotpune jer je Karla del Ponte uglavnom
govorila o "svom" Tribunalu i, o kome drugome nego o Milosevicu,
a Medjunarodni tribunal koji vi spominjete ne odgovara SAD-a.
Saljem vam u prilogu clanak italijanskog "Il Manifesto" i osvrt
na dio gdje autor clanka spominje pitanje americke novinarke
koje je pitanje gospodja Del Ponte mimoisla. "Uzrujala se naprotiv
kad je jedan jugoslavenski kolega masuci snimkama ubijene djece
[i albanske, n.o.] od NATO bombi, trazio zasto nisu od tog
Tribunala uzeti u obzir i ti zlocini za sudjenje Sjeverno
atlantskoj organizaciji".
Lakonicni odgovor Karle del Ponte je da taj sud radi na dokazima
i da dokazi nisu prilozeni, tako da preliminarno ispitivanje nije
nam dozvoljavalo da otvaramo fascikl za to. Na taj nevjerovatni
odgovor, autor gore citiranog clanka podsjeca kako gospodja Del
Ponte zaboravlja da dosije tih dokaza su predale organizacije,
Amnesty International i Human Right Watch.
Zasto "Vesti" presucuju takve informacije?

Drugarski pozdrav
