Informazione
Riassunto:
RK Kent (professore di storia alla Berkeley University) ha ricevuto
una lettera dai "Medici senza frontiere" che gli chiedono un contributo.
E lui risponde: e' vero cio' che dite, il premio Nobel per la Pace
l' avete avuto, ma avete dimenticato di dire che subito dopo avete
espulso dai vostri ranghi i "Medici zenza frontiere" greci soltanto
perche' hanno osato assistere i feriti serbi. In quel preciso momento
avete eretto una frontiera, e cessato di essere medici, aderendo al
razzismo e mostrando il vero volto della vostra organizzazione
che considera il popolo serbo inferiore ed indegno delle vostre
cure... Sostenervi con un contributo significherebbe sancire la truffa
etica della quale voi siete partecipi.
Il solo rimedio per voi sarebbe di chiedere scusa in una forma
universalmente accettabile, e di restituire il Nobel per la Pace.

TRIESTE 12/9
Parliamo di Jugoslavia
" A due anni dai bombardamenti NATO (e quindi anche
Italiani) sulla Jugoslavia, � sceso il silenzio sulle
conseguenze causate da quella guerra sulle popolazioni,
sull'ambiente, sulle condizioni economiche e sulle
prospettive politiche e sociali dei Paesi che costituivano
la Repubblica Federativa Socialista di Jugoslavia."
Queste erano le parole con cui presentammo la nostra
recente iniziativa a Sgonico (TS), a luglio.
E queste qui sotto sono le parole che ci scrivono oggi (1.
settembre) gli operai di Kragujevac, nel loro accorato
appello di richiesta di aiuto:
" L'attenzione della comunita internazionale e dei media
verso la situazione jugoslava da un po' di tempo �
diminuita. Questo potrebbe far pensare ad una situazione
generale migliorata dalla fine dei bombardamenti. La dura
realta � purtroppo molto diversa, per tutto il paese, ma
sopratutto per i lavoratori, le lavoratrici e le loro
famiglie. La loro situazione � molta dura ed al limite,
paradossalmente, � piu difficile del dopo bombardamenti di
due anni fa; e l'inverno che ci aspetta fa molta paura."
I lavoratori di Kragujevac avevano riavviato la fabbrica
distrutta dalle bombe. Oggi il nuovo governo "democratico"
di Djindjic, agli ordini del F.M.I., la chiude, licenziando
decine di migliaia di operai.
A luglio scrivemmo anche che la situazione in Macedonia
stava volgendo al peggio.
Sono passati soltanto due mesi, e purtroppo i fatti ci
hanno dato ragione: i soldati della NATO oggi entrano "da
eroi" in Macedonia, fingendo di farsi restituire le armi
che loro stessi hanno affidato all'UCK per destabilizzare
prima il Kosovo, ed ora la Macedonia. Armi che hanno
viaggiato anche nei containers della "Missione Arcobaleno".
Pagate dai bravi cittadini italiani. Anche da "compagni"
italiani.
La NATO avanza ad est, e si riunisce a Napoli. I suoi
alleati Turchia e Israele fanno strage di Kurdi e
Palestinesi. L'Onu balbetta di razzismo a Durban, mentre
nei Balcani � invisibile. Perch�? Parliamone.
Oggi delle attuali emergenze di questi popoli non parla
nessuno:

CESENA 13/9
Basta con i terroristi della N.A.T.O. : macellai della globalizzazione
imperialista!
Ieri l'asse Clinton -D'Alema con le bombe all'uranio, oggi
Bush-Berlusconi con lo scudo spaziale: la NATO ed i paesi ricchi
continuano ad armarsi per imporre lo sfruttamento dell'umanit� e del
pianeta . Distruggono con bombe, embarghi, genocidi e uranio
impoverito per perpetrare le vergognose ingiustizie del capitalismo
e del "libero" mercato.
Le guerre "umanitarie", le "operazioni di pace", i Tribunali
internazionali come quello dell'Aja servono a piegare e criminalizzare
chiunque nel mondo si oppone alle 500 multinazionali che oggi
controllano l'economia del pianeta.
Gli effetti di questo "Nuovo Ordine Mondiale", diviso fra gli
"alleati" USA ed Europa in una folle corsa ad accaparrarsi risorse,
mercati, forza lavoro a basso costo sono sempre pi� evidenti :
guerre ,distruzioni , massacri, fame, cancellazione di diritti
elementari .
Per chi non ci st� ci sono mercenari in divisa o , se si tratta
d'interi popoli e stati, piloti ben addestrati a radere al suolo citt�
come in Iraq, Jugoslavia,Palestina.
Ma la NATO � anche terrorismo interno : dalla strage di Piazza
Fontana, passando per le stragi nei treni e alla stazione di Bologna
fino ai delitti della "Uno Bianca". Una strategia niente affatto
"deviata" o "eversiva" ma organica a un disegno di stabilizzazione di
uno stato "democratico" forte e autoritario nel segno dell'alternanza.
Uno stato che nella alternanza del personale politico in carica ha
mostrato il suo vero volto ai vertici di Napoli e Genova.
Non c'� spazio dunque per linee concertative o di dialogo ne tanto
meno per un imbelle pacifismo riformista : la vita , la salute e la
natura non si contrattano. Per fermare i criminali della NATO occorre
una opposizione di massa radicale che diventi un reale contropotere su
scala planetaria.
Tutti a Napoli il 26/9 contro la NATO e a Vicenza il 5/10 contro il
convegno della nato sulle tecnologie satellitari militari.
Per preparare la partecipazione a questi due appuntamenti Gioved� 13/9
h.21.00 presso il centro "pellerossa" autogestito vicolo stazione 52

INIZIATIVE AD AVIANO
CONTRO LA NATO GLOBALE NO AL MILITARISMO
ORGANIZZIAMO L'OPPOSIZIONE SOCIALE
AL BRACCIO ARMATO DELLA GLOBALIZZAZIONE CAPITALISTA
Il vertice di Napoli del 26 e 27 settembre, che dovrebbe
ufficializzare la decisione "americana" di costruire lo
scudo spaziale, si incardina non a caso nella sequenza
degli appuntamenti che i padroni del pianeta si danno
ormai con frequenza ossessiva nel tentativo, sempre pi�
difficile, di affrontare e nel contempo di occultare
all'opinione pubblica mondiale i fattori della crisi
intercapitalistica in atto ormai da tempo.
Nessuna decisione sul clima, risibili risultati nella
lotta alla fame nel mondo, conflitti "etnici" che
esplodono dappertutto, crisi ecologiche diffuse e sempre
pi� vaste: questo � lo scenario prodotto dal capitalismo
che i rappresentanti degli evanescenti stati-nazione
pretendono di affrontare con gli stessi mezzi che ne
hanno causato gli effetti.
Le questioni militari non sono ovviamente estranee a
tutto ci�: basti a dimostrarlo il ruolo della NATO nei
recenti conflitti balcanici.
Ci sembra perci� fondamentale un momento di approfondimento
e di sensibilizzazione, da tenersi ai confini di una delle
pi� importanti basi del sistema bellico Statunitense-NATO,
negli stessi giorni in cui a Napoli si dovrebbe segnare una
svolta, anche a livello formale, nella funzione
della NATO: da organismo di difesa dei paesi "occidentali"
contro le aggressioni esterne, ad esercito internazionale
di tutela mondiale, con ampia libert� di intervento, di
tutti gli interessi dei paesi dominanti e di
quelli che vogliono fare affari con loro.
E' indispensabile inoltre continuare ad analizzare gli
"effetti secondari" dei processi di riorganizzazione
militare: lo sviluppo di armamenti hi-tech,
riservati ovviamente alle nazioni pi� ricche, presuppone
imponenti finanziamenti di cui beneficeranno le multinazionali
del settore. Grandi spese quindi, ma lo squilibrio nelle
bilance dei pagamenti si colma presto
con la vendita di armi convenzionali, a bassa tecnologia,
letali quanto basta, verso i paesi in "via di sviluppo" che
hanno sempre pi� bisogno di controllare popolazioni
riottose a seguire i dettami del FMI...
Il sistema delle basi NATO e dei paesi alleati
costituisce ormai una rete che deve coprire l'intero
globo: le regioni che le ospitano, il territorio,
l'ambiente, la societ� devono piegarsi (flessibilit�
anche qui) ai bisogni della funzione militare.
Disagi, inquinamento ambientale, incidenti
gravissimi, degrado sociale e culturale:
tutto questo � il contorno delle basi militari.
E' necessario capire come la florida societ� del Nord-Est
possa ancora accettare una militarizzazione cos�
massiccia del proprio territorio. Non crediamo che sia
estranea a questo atteggiamento la ghiotta
opportunit�, organizzata a puntino dalle istituzioni
regionali, (Task Force NordEst) di fare lucrosi e garantiti
affari nei protettorati balcanici, sorvegliati dalle
truppe alleate.
Abbiamo messo in programma per sabato 29 e domenica 30
settembre p.v., a pochi giorni dal vertice di Napoli,
alcune iniziative che avrebbero lo scopo
di riportare all'attenzione dell'opinione pubblica locale
e nazionale la questione delle basi miliari presenti
sul territorio italiano; per denunciare il pericolo
di ripresa dell'iniziativa militare della NATO che
vede l'Italia impegnata in prima linea, con ricadute
pesantissime sul tessuto sociale e sul vissuto di ogni
individuo, con uno spreco di risorse e ricchezze.

disponibili)

che i rappresentanti degli evanescenti stati-nazione
pretendono di affrontare con gli stessi mezzi che ne
hanno causato gli effetti.
Le questioni militari non sono ovviamente estranee a
tutto ci�: basti a dimostrarlo il ruolo della NATO nei
recenti conflitti balcanici.
Ci sembra perci� fondamentale un momento di approfondimento
e di sensibilizzazione, da tenersi ai confini di una delle
pi� importanti basi del sistema bellico Statunitense-NATO,
negli stessi giorni in cui a Napoli si dovrebbe segnare una
svolta, anche a livello formale, nella funzione
della NATO: da organismo di difesa dei paesi "occidentali"
contro le aggressioni esterne, ad esercito internazionale
di tutela mondiale, con ampia libert� di intervento, di
tutti gli interessi dei paesi dominanti e di
quelli che vogliono fare affari con loro.
E' indispensabile inoltre continuare ad analizzare gli
"effetti secondari" dei processi di riorganizzazione
militare: lo sviluppo di armamenti hi-tech,
riservati ovviamente alle nazioni pi� ricche, presuppone
imponenti finanziamenti di cui beneficeranno le multinazionali
del settore. Grandi spese quindi, ma lo squilibrio nelle
bilance dei pagamenti si colma presto
con la vendita di armi convenzionali, a bassa tecnologia,
letali quanto basta, verso i paesi in "via di sviluppo" che
hanno sempre pi� bisogno di controllare popolazioni
riottose a seguire i dettami del FMI...
Il sistema delle basi NATO e dei paesi alleati
costituisce ormai una rete che deve coprire l'intero
globo: le regioni che le ospitano, il territorio,
l'ambiente, la societ� devono piegarsi (flessibilit�
anche qui) ai bisogni della funzione militare.
Disagi, inquinamento ambientale, incidenti
gravissimi, degrado sociale e culturale:
tutto questo � il contorno delle basi militari.
E' necessario capire come la florida societ� del Nord-Est
possa ancora accettare una militarizzazione cos�
massiccia del proprio territorio. Non crediamo che sia
estranea a questo atteggiamento la ghiotta
opportunit�, organizzata a puntino dalle istituzioni
regionali, (Task Force NordEst) di fare lucrosi e garantiti
affari nei protettorati balcanici, sorvegliati dalle
truppe alleate.
Abbiamo messo in programma per sabato 29 e domenica 30
settembre p.v., a pochi giorni dal vertice di Napoli,
alcune iniziative che avrebbero lo scopo
di riportare all'attenzione dell'opinione pubblica locale
e nazionale la questione delle basi miliari presenti
sul territorio italiano; per denunciare il pericolo
di ripresa dell'iniziativa militare della NATO che
vede l'Italia impegnata in prima linea, con ricadute
pesantissime sul tessuto sociale e sul vissuto di ogni
individuo, con uno spreco di risorse e ricchezze.

disponibili)

======================================Tough Measures Justified in Belarus
by Jared Israel [3 September 2001]
======================================
"A spokesman for the US Embassy in Minsk
told The Times that the embassy
helped to fund 300 non-governmental
organisations (NGOs), including non-state
media, but did not fund political parties,
since that is banned by law. He
admitted that some of the NGOs were linked
to those who were 'seeking political change.'
"[Ambassador Kozak wrote to a British
newspaper that] America's 'objective
and to some degree methodology are the
same' in Belarus as in Nicaragua,
where the US backed the Contras against the
left-wing Sandinista Government
in a war that claimed at least 30,000
lives." [From article in "The Times"
(UK), 3 September 2001, posted below.]
Victor Olevich, a Philadelphia reader, sent
us the article from 'The
Times'(UK) which is posted below.
Mr. Olevich commented that it is "one of
the bluntest I've seen in recent
months;" and so it seems to me as well.
With this 'Times' article, the cards
are on the table: U.S. Ambassador to
Belarus, Michael Kozak, has now admitted
that the U.S. is pursuing a 'Nicaraguan'
policy in Belarus.
Victor Olevich writes:
" They [i.e., US operatives] have been
putting out anti-Lukashenko propaganda
pieces and interviews with 'opposition'
leaders in many US-controlled Russian
papers during the past week. They're trying
to do all they can to change the
popular outcome of Sept. 4 elections by any
means - including possible
organized US-funded 'protests' in Minsk
following announcement of election
results (just as after presidential
elections in Yugoslavia last year)."
Taken in this context, what is Mr. Kozak's
statement but a threat to
Belorussian citizens: vote the
U.S.-approved way or suffer the fate of
Nicaragua.
Earlier this year, the Belorussian
government seized computers being used by
an unregistered, 'opposition' newspaper. It
seemed the computers had been
donated to the newspaper by the U.S.
Department of State.
Rather than being embarrassed that his boss
had been caught outrageously
violating Belorussian sovereignty, State
Department spokesman Richard Boucher
demanded that Washington's computers be
returned!
Anyway, while the 'Times' article kindly
sent to us by Mr. Olevich openly
confirms that the Belorussian government
has been telling the truth about
Washington's gross attack on Belorussian
sovereignty, the article also
slanders the Belorussian government.
It calls Belorussian President Lukashenko a
"dictatorial communist." But at
the same time, the article admits:
"President Lukashenko is popular and most
Belorussians fear that a new,
pro-Western leader would bring the poverty
experienced by many Russians and
Ukrainians after the transition to a market
economy. "
So if he's supported on a perfectly
sensible basis by most citizens, wherein
lies his dictatorialness? The article cites
only one 'example.' Here it is:
"Washington said recently that allegations
of state-sanctioned death squads
operating in Belarus, Europe's last bastion
of communism, were "credible".
Two former state prosecutors, who have been
granted political asylum in
America, have said that victims were
murdered with a special pistol and
buried in a cemetery in Minsk."
It is reassuring that a story almost surely
invented by Washington is found
credible - by Washington. And that 'special
pistol' is a nicely chilling
little touch. Still, this particular piece
of disinformation could use more work.
First of all, the same article quotes U.S.
Ambassador to Belarus, Michael
Kozak, to the effect that:
"America's 'objective and to some degree
methodology are the same' in Belarus
as in Nicaragua, where the US backed the
Contras against the left-wing
Sandinista Government in a war that claimed
at least 30,000 lives."
Second of all, note that one of the marked
features of the attack on Nicaragua by the
U.S.-financed-trained-and-led Contras was
the massive dose
of lies and deception emanating from
Washington. This, you may recall,
culminated in "Iran-Contra," an operation
synonymous with disinformation.
During Iran-Contra, the Reagan
Administration lied to: a) Congress; b)
everyone else; c) set up phony humanitarian
groups all over Central America
and d) presented the Contra death squads as
freedom fighters. (If this sounds
eerily familair, it may be because
Washington is now doing all the same
things to Macedonia!)
Which reminds me: the death squads in
Nicaragua (like the current ones in
Macedonia) were U.S. financed, trained and
'advised.'
And since 'The Times' article tells us that
now-Ambassador-to-Belarus Kozak
was:
"Principal Deputy Assistant Secretary for
Inter-American Affairs...working in
Panama, Nicaragua and El Salvador,
and...was serving in Nicaragua [when] Mr.
Reagan famously compared the Contras to the
French Resistance fighters." [One
of many of the amazing lies the U.S.
government spread about Nicaragua.]
- since Kozak was therefore of necessity
intimately involved with the
organization and direction of the death
squads in Nicaraguan and El Salvador
- isn't it 'credible' that a) the U.S.
invented the fable about Belorussian
government death squads, which it then
found credible and b) the U.S. is
planning to unleash the same sort of
violence which marked the "objective and
to some degree methodology" of Kozak's
previous work, where he and his
associates employed death squads and lies
against Nicaragua.
**********************
Fight Fire With Water
**********************
Mr. Lukashenko has been described as
'dictatorial' for taking mild measures
against the U.S.-funded Fifth Column.
According to 'The Times' there are now 300
U.S.-funded 'Non-governmental'
Organizations in Belarus.
300!
That's one U.S. Government Organization for
every 30,000 inhabitants of
Belarus, man, woman and child.
Can you imagine how Washington would react
were the Belorussian Ambassador,
coincidentally a former death squad
organizer, to set up 9,500 'independent'
NGOs and announce that their task was to
overthrow the U.S. government?
The accusation of 'dictatorial' behavior is
a ploy. It is intended to
intimidate the Belorussian authorities with
bad publicty, so they won't take
measures adequate to defend their country
from U.S. takeover.
Ambassador Kozak's remarks are a
declaration of covert war. It is entirely
appropriate that Belarus demand Mr. Kozak
be recalled and then immediately,
without awaiting Washington's response,
escort him and his entire staff to
the border. Throwing out the whole lot will
disrupt Washington's plans.
In addition, why shouldn't Belarus arrest
those receiving U.S. money?
Washington does not give people money out
of the kindness of its heart. It
pays for services rendered. In exchange for
money, some Belorussian
'democrats' have signed on to be
Washington's new Contras, employing 'a
methodology' similar to the methods
Washington used against Nicaragua. As
'The Times' notes, Washington's war against
Nicaragua killed 30,000 human
beings. Must the nightmare be repeated,
time and again?

The Times (UK) 3 September 2001 US adopts
'Contras policy' in communist
Belarus
FROM ALICE LAGNADO IN MOSCOW
THE US Embassy in Belarus has admitted that
it is pursuing a policy similar
to that in 1980s Nicaragua, in which
anti-government Contra rebels were
funded and supported.
President Lukashenko, a dictatorial
Communist, is heading for victory in
presidential elections on Sunday.
In an unusual admission, Michael Kozak, the
US Ambassador to Belarus, said in
a letter to a British newspaper that
America's "objective and to some degree
methodology are the same" in Belarus as in
Nicaragua, where the US backed the
Contras against the left-wing Sandinista
Government in a war that claimed at
least 30,000 lives. Mr Kozak was not
available for comment.
Washington said recently that allegations
of state-sanctioned death squads
operating in Belarus, Europe's last bastion
of communism, were "credible".
Two former state prosecutors, who have been
granted political asylum in
America, have said that victims were
murdered with a special pistol and
buried in a cemetery in Minsk.
The ambassador's disclosure has coincided
with moves by the Bush
Administration to gain increased political
influence in Eastern Europe and
the Balkans and with reports in several
European newspapers, which said that
former US servicemen believed to be working
for the CIA were escorted with
Albanian guerrillas from a village in the
Former Yugoslav Republic of
Macedonia earlier this year.
Earlier in his career, Mr Kozak served as
Principal Deputy Assistant
Secretary for Inter-American Affairs under
Presidents Reagan and Bush,
working in Panama, Nicaragua and El
Salvador, and was Ambassador to Cuba.
While Mr Kozak was serving in Nicaragua, Mr
Reagan famously compared the
Contras to the French Resistance fighters.
President Lukashenko is popular and most
Belorussians fear that a new,
pro-Western leader would bring the poverty
experienced by many Russians and
Ukrainians after the transition to a market
economy.
A spokesman for the US Embassy in Minsk
told The Times that the embassy
helped to fund 300 non-governmental
organisations (NGOs), including non-state
media, but did not fund political parties,
since that is banned by law. He
admitted that some of the NGOs were linked
to those who were "seeking political change".

======================================Speechless in Belarus
by Jared Israel [3 September 2001]
======================================
Frankly, the article posted below left me
speechless.
But why?
After all, as President Slobodan Milosevich
noted in the speech they didn't
let him make a few days ago, the U.S. has
employed missiles to punish uppity
nations so often that the repetition of
such attacks is 'expected before it occurs.'
If missiles are appropriate when one defies
the Great White (Mini)Father, why
should it surprise me that State Department
Spokesman Richard Boucher says
the U.S. is aiding the "prospect for free
and fair presidential elections" by
giving money and equipment to pro-U.S.
groups in Belarus?
Why should I consider it odd that Boucher
describes such groups, created and
funded by the U.S. (there are now 300
U.S.-funded NGOs in Belarus!) as "independent?"
Perhaps the problem is I am 57, hence was
(mis)educated in numerous
out-of-date definitions, such as:
in�de�pend�ent
in�de�pend�ent (�n�d�-p�n�dent) adjective
Abbr. ind.
1. Not governed by a foreign power;
self-governing.
2. Free from the influence, guidance, or
control of another or others;
self-reliant: an independent mind.
Whereas in Uncle Sam's Excellent New Order,
'independent' means "governed by
a foreign power" not to mention "getting
all the funds and computer equipment
from Sam you Can."
That being the case, when the State
Department gives computers to an
'opposition' group in Belarus, thus
heightening said group's independence,
and the Belorussian authorities seize such
equipment, thus abusing
Washington's God-given right to rule the
world - plus proving they are agents
of a communist dictatorship - why shouldn't
Mr. Boucher demand his computers
be returned?
Will I never learn?
- Jared Israel, still speechless after all
these years.

U.S. Denounces [!] Belarus Authorities
WASHINGTON
The State Department on Friday denounced
Belarus authorities for seizing
U.S.-supplied equipment designed to assist
the country's democratic opposition ahead
of Sept. 9 presidential elections.
Spokesman Richard Boucher demanded the
immediate return of the equipment.
On July 12, Boucher said, militia officers
in the town of Krichev seized
equipment owned by the U.S. government and
leased to the independent newspaper Volny Grad.
Militia officers also seized computer
equipment leased by the U.S. Embassy
Democracy Commission to a pro-democracy
center, Boucher said.
He noted that the Belarusian government had
confirmed that the equipment was
seized under terms of Decree No. 8, imposed
by the regime to limit foreign
assistance to the democratic opposition.
''This decree has ben denounced by the
international community,'' Boucher
said, ''as have many other actions taken by
the regime that impede the
prospect for free and fair presidential
elections.''
He said all U.S. assistance falls under a
1996 bilateral assistance
agreement. He added that the seizures
contradict the Belarusian government's
assurances that U.S. assistance is exempt
from Decree 8.
Only by creating conditions for free and
fair elections can Belarus win the
respect of the international community,
improve relations with the United
States and end its self-imposed isolation,
Boucher said.

to that in 1980s Nicaragua, in which
anti-government Contra rebels were
funded and supported.
President Lukashenko, a dictatorial
Communist, is heading for victory in
presidential elections on Sunday.
In an unusual admission, Michael Kozak, the
US Ambassador to Belarus, said in
a letter to a British newspaper that
America's "objective and to some degree
methodology are the same" in Belarus as in
Nicaragua, where the US backed the
Contras against the left-wing Sandinista
Government in a war that claimed at
least 30,000 lives. Mr Kozak was not
available for comment.
Washington said recently that allegations
of state-sanctioned death squads
operating in Belarus, Europe's last bastion
of communism, were "credible".
Two former state prosecutors, who have been
granted political asylum in
America, have said that victims were
murdered with a special pistol and
buried in a cemetery in Minsk.
The ambassador's disclosure has coincided
with moves by the Bush
Administration to gain increased political
influence in Eastern Europe and
the Balkans and with reports in several
European newspapers, which said that
former US servicemen believed to be working
for the CIA were escorted with
Albanian guerrillas from a village in the
Former Yugoslav Republic of
Macedonia earlier this year.
Earlier in his career, Mr Kozak served as
Principal Deputy Assistant
Secretary for Inter-American Affairs under
Presidents Reagan and Bush,
working in Panama, Nicaragua and El
Salvador, and was Ambassador to Cuba.
While Mr Kozak was serving in Nicaragua, Mr
Reagan famously compared the
Contras to the French Resistance fighters.
President Lukashenko is popular and most
Belorussians fear that a new,
pro-Western leader would bring the poverty
experienced by many Russians and
Ukrainians after the transition to a market
economy.
A spokesman for the US Embassy in Minsk
told The Times that the embassy
helped to fund 300 non-governmental
organisations (NGOs), including non-state
media, but did not fund political parties,
since that is banned by law. He
admitted that some of the NGOs were linked
to those who were "seeking political change".

======================================Speechless in Belarus
by Jared Israel [3 September 2001]
======================================
Frankly, the article posted below left me
speechless.
But why?
After all, as President Slobodan Milosevich
noted in the speech they didn't
let him make a few days ago, the U.S. has
employed missiles to punish uppity
nations so often that the repetition of
such attacks is 'expected before it occurs.'
If missiles are appropriate when one defies
the Great White (Mini)Father, why
should it surprise me that State Department
Spokesman Richard Boucher says
the U.S. is aiding the "prospect for free
and fair presidential elections" by
giving money and equipment to pro-U.S.
groups in Belarus?
Why should I consider it odd that Boucher
describes such groups, created and
funded by the U.S. (there are now 300
U.S.-funded NGOs in Belarus!) as "independent?"
Perhaps the problem is I am 57, hence was
(mis)educated in numerous
out-of-date definitions, such as:
in�de�pend�ent
in�de�pend�ent (�n�d�-p�n�dent) adjective
Abbr. ind.
1. Not governed by a foreign power;
self-governing.
2. Free from the influence, guidance, or
control of another or others;
self-reliant: an independent mind.
Whereas in Uncle Sam's Excellent New Order,
'independent' means "governed by
a foreign power" not to mention "getting
all the funds and computer equipment
from Sam you Can."
That being the case, when the State
Department gives computers to an
'opposition' group in Belarus, thus
heightening said group's independence,
and the Belorussian authorities seize such
equipment, thus abusing
Washington's God-given right to rule the
world - plus proving they are agents
of a communist dictatorship - why shouldn't
Mr. Boucher demand his computers
be returned?
Will I never learn?
- Jared Israel, still speechless after all
these years.

U.S. Denounces [!] Belarus Authorities
WASHINGTON
The State Department on Friday denounced
Belarus authorities for seizing
U.S.-supplied equipment designed to assist
the country's democratic opposition ahead
of Sept. 9 presidential elections.
Spokesman Richard Boucher demanded the
immediate return of the equipment.
On July 12, Boucher said, militia officers
in the town of Krichev seized
equipment owned by the U.S. government and
leased to the independent newspaper Volny Grad.
Militia officers also seized computer
equipment leased by the U.S. Embassy
Democracy Commission to a pro-democracy
center, Boucher said.
He noted that the Belarusian government had
confirmed that the equipment was
seized under terms of Decree No. 8, imposed
by the regime to limit foreign
assistance to the democratic opposition.
''This decree has ben denounced by the
international community,'' Boucher
said, ''as have many other actions taken by
the regime that impede the
prospect for free and fair presidential
elections.''
He said all U.S. assistance falls under a
1996 bilateral assistance
agreement. He added that the seizures
contradict the Belarusian government's
assurances that U.S. assistance is exempt
from Decree 8.
Only by creating conditions for free and
fair elections can Belarus win the
respect of the international community,
improve relations with the United
States and end its self-imposed isolation,
Boucher said.

DIFENDERE MILOSEVIC E' DIFENDERE
LA LIBERTA' E LA SOVRANITA' DEI POPOLI
di Fulvio Grimaldi
Il 24 marzo scorso, anniversario dell'aggressione Nato
alla Jugoslavia, si � svolto a Belgrado un
convegno internazionale, organizzato dalle sinistre
serbe, su cause e conseguenze dell'aggressione imperialista.
L'ex-presidente Slobodan Milosevic, che era stato
sconfitto nelle elezioni presidenziali
da una coalizione di forze finanziate e istruite
dagli USA e da altri paesi Nato, al termine di
una campagna segnata da minacce militari e ricatti
economici di ogni genere, rischiava l'arresto e
l'estradizione al tribunale dell'Aja, un
tribunale-farsa, voluto e finanziato dagli USA,
creato dall'ONU in violazione del suo stesso
statuto, specializzato in montature contro
dirigenti serbi. Si costitu� quindi il Comitato
Internazionale di Difesa di Slobodan
Milosevic (ICDSM), formato da 80 tra giuristi,
esponenti della cultura, politici, giornalisti
di 30 paesi. Ne sono presidenti l'ex-ministro
della giustizia statunitense e leader dei diritti
civili e del movimento antimperialista, Ramsey
Clark, e il parlamentare bulgaro prof. Velko
Valkanov, presidente dell'Unione Antifascista
Bulgara. Chi scrive ne � vicepresidente e
referente per l'Italia. Nel nostro paese l'ICDSM
opera in stretta collaborazione con
il Tribunale Ramsey Clark per i crimini di
guerra della Nato.
In poche settimane l'ICDSM ha raccolto milioni
di firme in tutto il mondo contro l'arresto di
Milosevic, nel frattempo attuato in forme totalmente
illegali e su ricatto finanziario USA e contro
la sua illegale detenzione. L'ICDSM ha fornito
al collegio di difesa di Milosevic, nel corso dei
tre mesi di detenzione a Belgrado, un costante
monitoraggio giuridico della legalit� internazionale
e si � adoperato per pubblicizzare tutte le
illegalit� che caratterizzavano il trattamento
di Milosevic da parte delle autorit� serbe, installate
dopo il pogrom filo-Nato dell'ottobre 2000.
In particolare, � stato denunciato come la
detenzione di Milosevic, prorogata illegalmente
per tre volte in totale assenza di prove a suo
carico fornite dalle centinaia di
testimoni ascoltati per l'imputazione di
abuso d'ufficio e abuso di poteri, violasse
i principi fondamentali degli ordinamenti
giuridici nazionale ed internazionale. L'ICDSM
ha poi seguito la vicenda di Milosevic, in
particolare con l'avvocato Christopher Black e
altri legali del prestigioso studio
canadese Mandel, dalla consegna dell'ex-presidente
agli USA e poi al Tribunale della Nato all'Aja,
avvenuta su ennesimo ricatto finanziario USA e
deciso in solitudine, contro le decisioni del
Parlamento e della Corte Suprema e in violazione
delle Costituzioni jugoslava e serba, dal
quisling serbo Zoran Djindjic, un losco personaggio,
gi� al soldo dei servizi segreti tedeschi,
fuggito in Germania all'inizio dell'aggressione
dove ha aiutato la Nato a
colpire obiettivi civili in Jugoslavia.
Va ricordato che negli ultimi giorni lo stesso
presidente Kostunica si � dissociato politicamente
da Djindjic, ritirando il suo partito dalla coalizione
DOS al governo, e ha accusato il gruppo del
primo ministro di essere espressione della
malavita organizzata, un fatto noto da tempo
a tutti gli osservatori internazionali.
Resta a Djindjic, nell'attuale crisi jugoslava,
oltre all'appoggio degli USA, il poco qualificante
sostegno dei terroristi di Otpor, la famosa
organizzazione detta degli studenti serbi e
che, a dispetto delle profferte di amicizia
fattegli da settori del Movimento anti-global
italiano (Tute Bianche e Ya Basta) e addirittura
da elementi della sinistra antagonista, si �
confessata creazione della CIA, dagli USA finanziata,
equipaggiata, istruita ed addestrata in corsi
di formazione insurrezionale a Sofia e a Budapest.
Anche le costanti violazioni di diritto e i
soprusi consentiti dai regolamenti del sedicente
Tribunale dell'Aja e inflitti a Milosevic (come
il prolungato rifiuto degli incontri con i
famigliari, l'isolamento, le perquisizioni
addirittura di nipoti di pochi anni, l'arrogante
e scorretta interruzione audio delle
dichiarazioni di Milosevic in aula) sono
documentate e denunciate dall'ICDSM che,
in aggiunta, continua a monitorare le condizioni di salute
dell'ex-presidente. Fu l'ICDSM a denunciare
come i diritti sanitari del detenuto fossero
sistematicamente ignorati e violati, anche nel
corso di un infarto che lo colp� a met� maggio.
Accanto alla stretta sorveglianza giuridica e
alla denuncia dei costanti abusi compiuti dai
suoi carcerieri, l'ICDSM si propone anche di
controbattere alla micidiale opera di
disinformazione e intossicazione attuata dai
media ai danni della Jugoslavia, della Serbia
e, soprattutto, di Slobodan Milosevic,
che costituisce in s� un crimine contro l'umanit�.
Riteniamo che Milosevic sia il personaggio
storico pi� diffamato dai tempi di Giuliano
l'Apostata, un imperatore illuminato che ebbe
il coraggio di opporsi al dilagante controllo
della Chiesa Cristiana sui beni pubblici
e sui cittadini dell'Impero. La sua
figura e opera sono state aggredite da una
macchina da guerra di menzogne e mistificazioni,
poi risultate tutte fondate sull'invenzione
di specializzate agenzie USA di disinformazione,
cui quasi tutti i media sono obbedienti fin dai
tempi dell'aggressione all'Iraq nella Guerra
del Golfo. Nel frattempo il tempo � stato
galantuomo e si sono dissolte le diffamazioni
circa la pulizia etnica ai danni degli albanesi
(inventata, contrariamente a quella effettuata
dagli albanesi, sotto l'egida Nato, ai danni di
centinaia di migliaia di serbi), le fosse comuni,
le stragi attribuite ai serbi a Racak, in Kosovo, o a
Sarajevo e Sebrenica in Bosnia, il presunto
nazionalismo di un presidente che ha dovuto
costantemente difendersi dalle strategie
divisorie dell'imperialismo e dei nazionalismi
etnici e che si � invece adoperato fino all'ultimo
per la pacifica convivenza di tutte le etnie,
culture, religioni, anche accogliendo un milione
di profughi tra i quali Rom, ebrei, goranci, bulgari,
ungheresi, cacciati dall'UCK e da Tudjman, fino
all'accusa da sinistra di una resa alla globalizzazione
liberista, allorch� fu invece proprio Milosevic
a porre un freno alle privatizzazioni imposte dai
ricatti FMI e a salvaguardare uno stato sociale che
vantava, ultimo in Europa, servizi sociali come
sanit� e scuola pubblici gratuiti (ora in corso
di privatizzazione), che escludeva la cessione di
settori strategici a maggioranze straniere, che
garantiva alle maestranze il 60% delle imprese
privatizzate, che aveva ricostruito la Zastava,
ora in vendita al migliore offerente.
Mi ha detto Slobo nell'ultimo colloquio che ha
avuto, nella sua residenza, con un giornalista
straniero:"Cercano il mio cosiddetto "tesoro".
Lo hanno cercato in Svizzera e le autorit�
svizzere hanno cercato e risposto che non c'era
nulla. Hanno additato Cipro, dove stavano le
bare refrigerate per i caduti segreti USA, e il
governo di Cipro ha negato con indignazione. Sa
dove si trova il "tesoro di Milosevic"? Sta nei
ponti jugoslavi ricostruiti, sta nel
cibo e nelle medicine con cui abbiamo potuto
salvaguardare l'esistenza del mio popolo sotto
embargo, sta nella Zastava ricostruita in un
anno al 70%.
Il resto, su questa figura coraggiosa ed integra,
profondamente antimperialista e patriottica, lo
pu� imparare chiunque si sia dato cura di ascoltarne
le dignitose e ferme parole al Tribunale dell'Aja,
prima che un presidente asservito agli USA gli
tagliasse il microfono. Lo stanno apprendendo anche
i serbi, gi� ingannati dalle bugie e false
promesse dell'imperialismo, che di giorno in
giorno vanno rafforzando, con manifestazioni di
decine di migliaia di persone, il Partito Socialista
Serbo, unica opposizione, repressa e perseguitata
dal regime "democratico" installatosi col colpo
di stato del 5 ottobre, che ha reso pi� disperata
che mai la situazione economica del paese, lo ha
affidato alla mafia e ne ha svenduto dignit�,
sovranit� e indipendenza.
L'ICDSM, in collaborazione con il Tribunale Clark
(tribunaleclark@...), prepara ora un
convegno nazionale sulla natura del Tribunale
dell'Aja e sulle violazioni del diritto
internazionale di cui � protagonista. Analoghi
convegni si svolgeranno in altri paesi, fino a
culminare, a ottobre, con una grande
assemblea-manifestazione all'Aja, contro il
tribunale-farsa, contro la Nato, per la Jugoslavia
e la liberazione di Milosevic.

======================================Against NATO's Terrorist Occupation Of The Balkans
President Milosevic's Call-in to Fox
News, 24 August 2001 [posted 29 August 2001]
======================================
RITA COSBY: President Milosevic, thank
you so much for joining us from the
Hague. First of all, tell us if you
could, how are you feeling?
SLOBODAN MILOSEVIC: I feel fine, you
know I'm here in the jail, the
so-called "prison" of that illegitimate
tribunal, which is not having any
legitimacy exactly as NATO aggression
against Yugoslavia had no
legitimacy. Those are the paths of the
same approach. This tribunal is to
NATO based tribunal to continue the war
by other means.
RITA COSBY: Now that tribunal has
called you an indicted war criminal, how
do you feel about that title?
SLOBODAN MILOSEVIC: You know I can tell
you, I'm proud for everything I did
in defending my country and my people,
all my decisions are legitimate and
legal, based on the Constitution of
Yugoslavia, and based on the right of
self-defense which belongs to every
nation in the world . And their
decisions - NATO leaders' decisions
were all criminal. They were simply
killing our people and they have thrown
more than 22,000 tons of bombs to
hospitals, to apartments of civilians,
to electricity facilities, water
supply, bridges, railways, trains,
refugees, and that was all one massive
killing of innocent people and that
was the real crime, so right address
for war crimes in Yugoslavia is NATO.
That all was done in front of the
eyes of all the world, so I don't
believe in spite the huge media campaign
against my country, that it is possible
to hide those facts.
RITA COSBY: Do you think that you have
anything to apologize for, because
tens of thousands of Albanian lives
were lost?
SLOBODAN MILOSEVIC: They were lost in
the NATO aggression. I want to
remind you that before the aggression
started there were only some rare
conflicts with small groups of
terrorists who were putting bombs in
cafes, in market places or somewhere else,
killing innocent people. That was all,
and that was calmed down in the Autumn
of 1998. They were bringing they're
arms by tractors getting it back to the
police, and that was completely
calmed down. And people were in their
homes, and there was verification
mission of OSCE, so in front of them,
that was completely clear, Kosovo
was completely calm. But when NATO
started bombing on 24th of March, lots
of civilians were killed, and of course
lot of them tried to escape what
was normal - everybody was running
away. I said to one of your colleagues
during the war when he was asking me
why the people were running away: "How
one wouldn't t run away under air alarm
of 24 hrs a day and under massive
bombings of NATO". Everybody was
running away, including dears, bears,
birds, everybody was running away.
RITA COSBY: What I wanted to ask you,
was you did direct Serb troops to
kill Albanians, of course Albanians
were killing Serbs as well, but you did
direct Serb troops to kill Albanians,
how do you feel about that?
SLOBODAN MILOSEVIC: No, no, the
troops were avoiding to kill civilians
anyhow, they had only to eliminate
terrorist groups which were killing
people, both Serbs and others -
Albanians, Turks, Muslims, everybody.
Even when they were quite clearly visible
within the groups of civilians, there
was strict order that police or army
should not open fire - just to avoid
possibility to kill any civilian. So
there was nothing like killing
civilians done by armed forces of
Yugoslavia.
RITA COSBY: But many civilians were
raped, many were killed - there is
proof of that . They ended up in mass
graves, how do you explain that?
SLOBODAN MILOSEVIC: There were
individual crimes, but there was clear
order that any crime has to be
punished immediately, and whoever did it
has to be arrested. And the proof that
that order was obeyed quite clearly
and exactly as it was supposed to be
obeyed, is the fact that more than
500 different individuals were
immediately arrested by the police or
the army. So, armed forces and police
forces had nothing in common with any
crime which was committed in Kosovo.
Those were consequences of chaotic
situation created by massive bombing of
NATO. In such chaotic situation, of
course there is always a possibility
for different criminal elements to do
some crime, but there was very very
efficient action against all of them to
be immediately arrested and sent to
jail. Army and police forces were
defending the country and were not used
against the population They were
our citizens and they were not object
of any military action.
RITA COSBY: Are you sorry - and I will
say that some of the Albanian
leaders, and Albanian officials have
said that they are sorry that some
Serb civilians were killed in the
process, as you have said, in the chaotic
situation. Are you prepared to say now
that you and others are sorry for,
maybe some of the civilian deaths,
some of the other deaths that happened
to have been killed?
SLOBODAN MILOSEVIC: Many things
happened in that chaos, but you have to
be aware of the fact that that was just
the consequence of that criminal
aggression committed by NATO against
Yugoslavia.
RITA COSBY: Are you sorry I guess, a
lot of people...
SLOBODAN MILOSEVIC: Of course, all of
us are sorry for the death of any
person anywhere in the world, nobody
can't be happy for the death of any
person anywhere, that is so obvious so
that it is not the question at all.
RITA COSBY: What will you use as your
defense at the trial, and will you
represent yourself? What will you use
as your defense?
SLOBODAN MILOSEVIC: You know, this
trial is really illegal, but I said to
you that all the decisions of mine
were completely legitimate and legal in
defense of my country, and their
decisions were completely criminal and
that is the big difference. That is the
big difference. Look now at what
they are doing in Macedonia, they
first supported Albanian terrorists whom
they call "Kosovo liberation army", in
fact that is a terrorist
organization, to start killing people
in Macedonia, and then that is now
the excuse for them to get in with the
troops and to occupy Macedonia.
That is the process of occupation of
the Balkan peninsula.
RITA COSBY: But in this case, Mr.
President, the NATO troops are coming in
and they are disarming the Albanians,
do you think that is a good thing?
SLOBODAN MILOSEVIC: They will disarm
Albanians like they disarmed
Albanians in Kosovo. I remember what
commanding general of KFOR in July
1999, said - that "KLA" was disarmed,
and than those disarmed are killing
people every day under the auspices of
NATO, who are occupying Kosovo, so I
don't believe that they will disarm
them. They will only say that, but they
will not do that.
RITA COSBY: How do your people in
Yugoslavia feel about you now, do you
think you still have support within
your country?
SLOBODAN MILOSEVIC: Yes, I have very
wide and very strong support within
my people. So, they understand how
they have brought that puppet regime
now in Belgrade with those stolen
elections and they understand that that
is the way to occupy Yugoslavia.
Everything is now worse than it was
before, despite the fact that there are
no sanctions anymore, that
everything is now open for growing the
economy without any limitation. But
economy is getting down, there is no
factory which is working normally,
people are living very hard and
everybody knows it.

LA LIBERTA' E LA SOVRANITA' DEI POPOLI

Il 24 marzo scorso, anniversario dell'aggressione Nato

L'ex-presidente Slobodan Milosevic, che era stato

Valkanov, presidente dell'Unione Antifascista
Bulgara. Chi scrive ne � vicepresidente e
referente per l'Italia. Nel nostro paese l'ICDSM
opera in stretta collaborazione con
il Tribunale Ramsey Clark per i crimini di
guerra della Nato.
In poche settimane l'ICDSM ha raccolto milioni
di firme in tutto il mondo contro l'arresto di
Milosevic, nel frattempo attuato in forme totalmente
illegali e su ricatto finanziario USA e contro
la sua illegale detenzione. L'ICDSM ha fornito
al collegio di difesa di Milosevic, nel corso dei
tre mesi di detenzione a Belgrado, un costante
monitoraggio giuridico della legalit� internazionale
e si � adoperato per pubblicizzare tutte le
illegalit� che caratterizzavano il trattamento
di Milosevic da parte delle autorit� serbe, installate
dopo il pogrom filo-Nato dell'ottobre 2000.
In particolare, � stato denunciato come la
detenzione di Milosevic, prorogata illegalmente
per tre volte in totale assenza di prove a suo
carico fornite dalle centinaia di
testimoni ascoltati per l'imputazione di
abuso d'ufficio e abuso di poteri, violasse
i principi fondamentali degli ordinamenti
giuridici nazionale ed internazionale. L'ICDSM
ha poi seguito la vicenda di Milosevic, in
particolare con l'avvocato Christopher Black e
altri legali del prestigioso studio
canadese Mandel, dalla consegna dell'ex-presidente
agli USA e poi al Tribunale della Nato all'Aja,
avvenuta su ennesimo ricatto finanziario USA e
deciso in solitudine, contro le decisioni del
Parlamento e della Corte Suprema e in violazione
delle Costituzioni jugoslava e serba, dal
quisling serbo Zoran Djindjic, un losco personaggio,
gi� al soldo dei servizi segreti tedeschi,
fuggito in Germania all'inizio dell'aggressione
dove ha aiutato la Nato a
colpire obiettivi civili in Jugoslavia.
Va ricordato che negli ultimi giorni lo stesso
presidente Kostunica si � dissociato politicamente
da Djindjic, ritirando il suo partito dalla coalizione
DOS al governo, e ha accusato il gruppo del
primo ministro di essere espressione della
malavita organizzata, un fatto noto da tempo
a tutti gli osservatori internazionali.
Resta a Djindjic, nell'attuale crisi jugoslava,
oltre all'appoggio degli USA, il poco qualificante
sostegno dei terroristi di Otpor, la famosa
organizzazione detta degli studenti serbi e
che, a dispetto delle profferte di amicizia
fattegli da settori del Movimento anti-global
italiano (Tute Bianche e Ya Basta) e addirittura
da elementi della sinistra antagonista, si �
confessata creazione della CIA, dagli USA finanziata,
equipaggiata, istruita ed addestrata in corsi
di formazione insurrezionale a Sofia e a Budapest.
Anche le costanti violazioni di diritto e i
soprusi consentiti dai regolamenti del sedicente
Tribunale dell'Aja e inflitti a Milosevic (come
il prolungato rifiuto degli incontri con i
famigliari, l'isolamento, le perquisizioni
addirittura di nipoti di pochi anni, l'arrogante
e scorretta interruzione audio delle
dichiarazioni di Milosevic in aula) sono
documentate e denunciate dall'ICDSM che,
in aggiunta, continua a monitorare le condizioni di salute
dell'ex-presidente. Fu l'ICDSM a denunciare
come i diritti sanitari del detenuto fossero
sistematicamente ignorati e violati, anche nel
corso di un infarto che lo colp� a met� maggio.
Accanto alla stretta sorveglianza giuridica e
alla denuncia dei costanti abusi compiuti dai
suoi carcerieri, l'ICDSM si propone anche di
controbattere alla micidiale opera di
disinformazione e intossicazione attuata dai
media ai danni della Jugoslavia, della Serbia
e, soprattutto, di Slobodan Milosevic,
che costituisce in s� un crimine contro l'umanit�.
Riteniamo che Milosevic sia il personaggio
storico pi� diffamato dai tempi di Giuliano
l'Apostata, un imperatore illuminato che ebbe
il coraggio di opporsi al dilagante controllo
della Chiesa Cristiana sui beni pubblici
e sui cittadini dell'Impero. La sua
figura e opera sono state aggredite da una
macchina da guerra di menzogne e mistificazioni,
poi risultate tutte fondate sull'invenzione
di specializzate agenzie USA di disinformazione,
cui quasi tutti i media sono obbedienti fin dai
tempi dell'aggressione all'Iraq nella Guerra
del Golfo. Nel frattempo il tempo � stato
galantuomo e si sono dissolte le diffamazioni
circa la pulizia etnica ai danni degli albanesi
(inventata, contrariamente a quella effettuata
dagli albanesi, sotto l'egida Nato, ai danni di
centinaia di migliaia di serbi), le fosse comuni,
le stragi attribuite ai serbi a Racak, in Kosovo, o a
Sarajevo e Sebrenica in Bosnia, il presunto
nazionalismo di un presidente che ha dovuto
costantemente difendersi dalle strategie
divisorie dell'imperialismo e dei nazionalismi
etnici e che si � invece adoperato fino all'ultimo
per la pacifica convivenza di tutte le etnie,
culture, religioni, anche accogliendo un milione
di profughi tra i quali Rom, ebrei, goranci, bulgari,
ungheresi, cacciati dall'UCK e da Tudjman, fino
all'accusa da sinistra di una resa alla globalizzazione
liberista, allorch� fu invece proprio Milosevic
a porre un freno alle privatizzazioni imposte dai
ricatti FMI e a salvaguardare uno stato sociale che
vantava, ultimo in Europa, servizi sociali come
sanit� e scuola pubblici gratuiti (ora in corso
di privatizzazione), che escludeva la cessione di
settori strategici a maggioranze straniere, che
garantiva alle maestranze il 60% delle imprese
privatizzate, che aveva ricostruito la Zastava,
ora in vendita al migliore offerente.
Mi ha detto Slobo nell'ultimo colloquio che ha
avuto, nella sua residenza, con un giornalista
straniero:"Cercano il mio cosiddetto "tesoro".
Lo hanno cercato in Svizzera e le autorit�
svizzere hanno cercato e risposto che non c'era
nulla. Hanno additato Cipro, dove stavano le
bare refrigerate per i caduti segreti USA, e il
governo di Cipro ha negato con indignazione. Sa
dove si trova il "tesoro di Milosevic"? Sta nei
ponti jugoslavi ricostruiti, sta nel
cibo e nelle medicine con cui abbiamo potuto
salvaguardare l'esistenza del mio popolo sotto
embargo, sta nella Zastava ricostruita in un
anno al 70%.
Il resto, su questa figura coraggiosa ed integra,
profondamente antimperialista e patriottica, lo
pu� imparare chiunque si sia dato cura di ascoltarne
le dignitose e ferme parole al Tribunale dell'Aja,
prima che un presidente asservito agli USA gli
tagliasse il microfono. Lo stanno apprendendo anche
i serbi, gi� ingannati dalle bugie e false
promesse dell'imperialismo, che di giorno in
giorno vanno rafforzando, con manifestazioni di
decine di migliaia di persone, il Partito Socialista
Serbo, unica opposizione, repressa e perseguitata
dal regime "democratico" installatosi col colpo
di stato del 5 ottobre, che ha reso pi� disperata
che mai la situazione economica del paese, lo ha
affidato alla mafia e ne ha svenduto dignit�,
sovranit� e indipendenza.
L'ICDSM, in collaborazione con il Tribunale Clark
(tribunaleclark@...), prepara ora un
convegno nazionale sulla natura del Tribunale
dell'Aja e sulle violazioni del diritto
internazionale di cui � protagonista. Analoghi
convegni si svolgeranno in altri paesi, fino a
culminare, a ottobre, con una grande
assemblea-manifestazione all'Aja, contro il
tribunale-farsa, contro la Nato, per la Jugoslavia
e la liberazione di Milosevic.

======================================Against NATO's Terrorist Occupation Of The Balkans
President Milosevic's Call-in to Fox
News, 24 August 2001 [posted 29 August 2001]
======================================
RITA COSBY: President Milosevic, thank
you so much for joining us from the
Hague. First of all, tell us if you
could, how are you feeling?
SLOBODAN MILOSEVIC: I feel fine, you
know I'm here in the jail, the
so-called "prison" of that illegitimate
tribunal, which is not having any
legitimacy exactly as NATO aggression
against Yugoslavia had no
legitimacy. Those are the paths of the
same approach. This tribunal is to
NATO based tribunal to continue the war
by other means.
RITA COSBY: Now that tribunal has
called you an indicted war criminal, how
do you feel about that title?
SLOBODAN MILOSEVIC: You know I can tell
you, I'm proud for everything I did
in defending my country and my people,
all my decisions are legitimate and
legal, based on the Constitution of
Yugoslavia, and based on the right of
self-defense which belongs to every
nation in the world . And their
decisions - NATO leaders' decisions
were all criminal. They were simply
killing our people and they have thrown
more than 22,000 tons of bombs to
hospitals, to apartments of civilians,
to electricity facilities, water
supply, bridges, railways, trains,
refugees, and that was all one massive
killing of innocent people and that
was the real crime, so right address
for war crimes in Yugoslavia is NATO.
That all was done in front of the
eyes of all the world, so I don't
believe in spite the huge media campaign
against my country, that it is possible
to hide those facts.
RITA COSBY: Do you think that you have
anything to apologize for, because
tens of thousands of Albanian lives
were lost?
SLOBODAN MILOSEVIC: They were lost in
the NATO aggression. I want to
remind you that before the aggression
started there were only some rare
conflicts with small groups of
terrorists who were putting bombs in
cafes, in market places or somewhere else,
killing innocent people. That was all,
and that was calmed down in the Autumn
of 1998. They were bringing they're
arms by tractors getting it back to the
police, and that was completely
calmed down. And people were in their
homes, and there was verification
mission of OSCE, so in front of them,
that was completely clear, Kosovo
was completely calm. But when NATO
started bombing on 24th of March, lots
of civilians were killed, and of course
lot of them tried to escape what
was normal - everybody was running
away. I said to one of your colleagues
during the war when he was asking me
why the people were running away: "How
one wouldn't t run away under air alarm
of 24 hrs a day and under massive
bombings of NATO". Everybody was
running away, including dears, bears,
birds, everybody was running away.
RITA COSBY: What I wanted to ask you,
was you did direct Serb troops to
kill Albanians, of course Albanians
were killing Serbs as well, but you did
direct Serb troops to kill Albanians,
how do you feel about that?
SLOBODAN MILOSEVIC: No, no, the
troops were avoiding to kill civilians
anyhow, they had only to eliminate
terrorist groups which were killing
people, both Serbs and others -
Albanians, Turks, Muslims, everybody.
Even when they were quite clearly visible
within the groups of civilians, there
was strict order that police or army
should not open fire - just to avoid
possibility to kill any civilian. So
there was nothing like killing
civilians done by armed forces of
Yugoslavia.
RITA COSBY: But many civilians were
raped, many were killed - there is
proof of that . They ended up in mass
graves, how do you explain that?
SLOBODAN MILOSEVIC: There were
individual crimes, but there was clear
order that any crime has to be
punished immediately, and whoever did it
has to be arrested. And the proof that
that order was obeyed quite clearly
and exactly as it was supposed to be
obeyed, is the fact that more than
500 different individuals were
immediately arrested by the police or
the army. So, armed forces and police
forces had nothing in common with any
crime which was committed in Kosovo.
Those were consequences of chaotic
situation created by massive bombing of
NATO. In such chaotic situation, of
course there is always a possibility
for different criminal elements to do
some crime, but there was very very
efficient action against all of them to
be immediately arrested and sent to
jail. Army and police forces were
defending the country and were not used
against the population They were
our citizens and they were not object
of any military action.
RITA COSBY: Are you sorry - and I will
say that some of the Albanian
leaders, and Albanian officials have
said that they are sorry that some
Serb civilians were killed in the
process, as you have said, in the chaotic
situation. Are you prepared to say now
that you and others are sorry for,
maybe some of the civilian deaths,
some of the other deaths that happened
to have been killed?
SLOBODAN MILOSEVIC: Many things
happened in that chaos, but you have to
be aware of the fact that that was just
the consequence of that criminal
aggression committed by NATO against
Yugoslavia.
RITA COSBY: Are you sorry I guess, a
lot of people...
SLOBODAN MILOSEVIC: Of course, all of
us are sorry for the death of any
person anywhere in the world, nobody
can't be happy for the death of any
person anywhere, that is so obvious so
that it is not the question at all.
RITA COSBY: What will you use as your
defense at the trial, and will you
represent yourself? What will you use
as your defense?
SLOBODAN MILOSEVIC: You know, this
trial is really illegal, but I said to
you that all the decisions of mine
were completely legitimate and legal in
defense of my country, and their
decisions were completely criminal and
that is the big difference. That is the
big difference. Look now at what
they are doing in Macedonia, they
first supported Albanian terrorists whom
they call "Kosovo liberation army", in
fact that is a terrorist
organization, to start killing people
in Macedonia, and then that is now
the excuse for them to get in with the
troops and to occupy Macedonia.
That is the process of occupation of
the Balkan peninsula.
RITA COSBY: But in this case, Mr.
President, the NATO troops are coming in
and they are disarming the Albanians,
do you think that is a good thing?
SLOBODAN MILOSEVIC: They will disarm
Albanians like they disarmed
Albanians in Kosovo. I remember what
commanding general of KFOR in July
1999, said - that "KLA" was disarmed,
and than those disarmed are killing
people every day under the auspices of
NATO, who are occupying Kosovo, so I
don't believe that they will disarm
them. They will only say that, but they
will not do that.
RITA COSBY: How do your people in
Yugoslavia feel about you now, do you
think you still have support within
your country?
SLOBODAN MILOSEVIC: Yes, I have very
wide and very strong support within
my people. So, they understand how
they have brought that puppet regime
now in Belgrade with those stolen
elections and they understand that that
is the way to occupy Yugoslavia.
Everything is now worse than it was
before, despite the fact that there are
no sanctions anymore, that
everything is now open for growing the
economy without any limitation. But
economy is getting down, there is no
factory which is working normally,
people are living very hard and
everybody knows it.

Quelle che seguono sono le traduzioni in serbocroato di due
articoli apparsi su "Le Monde Diplomatique", risp. nelle
edizioni di agosto e settembre 2001. Le versioni originali,
in italiano, si potranno leggere sul sito:
> http://www.ilmanifesto.it/MondeDiplo/index1.html
tra qualche settimana.
Il primo articolo, "La vittoria del diritto", e' una critica
severa dello pseudo-Tribunale "ad hoc" dell'Aia. Il secondo,
"La parte del leone", contiene riflessioni sul Bollettino del
Fondo Monetario Internazionale del 6. agosto, che ci fa sapere
che la parte del leone nel nuovo ordine mondiale spetta sempre
ai ricchi e soprattutto agli Americani, che si sono presi
l'anno scorso la bellezza dei 64% del capitale mondiale.
E' interessante notare che tra il 1992 ed il 1997 la
loro percentuale era del "solo" 35%.

POBEDA PRAVA
Nekoliko dana nakon sto je bivsi predsednik Slobodan
Milosevic avionom Nato pakta izrucen ili, da budemo precizniji,
trampljen za ekonomsku pomoc, predsednik Dj. Bus je za
direktora Biroa za demokratiju, prava coveka i medjunarodne
operacije (Office for democracy, human rights and international
operations) postavio Eliota Ebramsa (Elliot Abrams).
Nije bas apsolutno jasno da se ovaj dogadjaj koga su veliki mediji
odvec olako precutali, zapravo podudara sa novom erom
univerzalnog prava, morala i nezne osecajnosti o kojima nam trucaju
cirkusari Internacionalnog Krivicnog Tribunala (TPI).
Prava? Eliot Ebrams, zamenik sekretara stejtdepartmenta za
Reganovog predsednikovanja, priznao je 1991. da je pod
zakletvom obmanuo Kongres SAD lazirajuci informacije o
-bespravnoj- podrsci americke vlade kontrasima i njihovoj borbi
protiv vlade Nikaragve. Ta podrska veoma desnicarski nastrojenoj
gerili, finansirana je delom iz prodaje oruzja Iranu, zemlji pod
americkim embargom, i tako je izigran Kongres. Ilegalna prodaja i
laziranje, zataskani su osudom nekolicine saradnika. Medju njima
nasao se i E. Ebrams, koga ce 1992. pomilovati Dj. Bus, otac
sadasnjeg predsednika.
Morala? Direktor americkog Biroa za prava coveka osamdesetih
godina bio je mozak americke politike, ubilacke za Centralnu
Ameriku. Njegova specijalnost? Negiranje pokolja. (1) Recimo
onog iz 1982. kada je pobijeno 767 stanovnika
El Mosetea (El Mozete) u Salvadoru. Ubice su pripadnici poluvojne
skupine koju su amerikanci skolovali u okviru borbe protiv
komunizma. Za g.dina Abramsa ta je borba takva svetinja da njeni
protivnici nisu nista drugo do "zmije otrovnice".
Kada smo februara 1995. u Hadsonovom Institutu, jezgru
konzervativne struje, sreli ovog deklarisanog pristsu izraelske
desnice, smatrao je da Palestinci nemaju "pravo na drzavu". Plasio
se eventualne intervencije predsednika Klintona protiv Iraka "zbog
toga sto ne verujem da ce smoci dovoljno cvrstine da je
okonca". Zalagao se za ukidanje programa pomoci ugrozenim
etnickim zajednicama u SAD: "To je donekle zato sto sam Jevrejin.
Na jevrejsku zajednicu otpada 30% mesta na Harvardu,
iako predstavljasamo samo 2% stanovnistva. Zapravo, svi ti
programi zdrave diskriminacije samo zaostravaju odnose medju
zajednicama."
Prava coveka su zaista u sigurnim rukama sa Ebramsom. Nema sta!

"LAVOVSKI DEO"
Smenjuju se nalik jedna drugoj privredne vesti
potvrdjujuci da izvesne analize i predvidjanja nisu bas uvek bile
nehotice promasene. Primerice, na ime ocekivanih suficita i raznih
fiskalnih doprinosa, bogatasima je efektivno smanjen porez u SAD
(1). No, kako su se predvidjeni suficiti izjalovili usled
usporenog privrednog rasta, sada pripremaju kresanje socijalnih
izdvajanja. U nadi da time poravnaju budzet poljuljan velikodusnom
fiskalnom politikom, koja bi opravdano mogla biti ocenjena kao
nepromisljena, da nije tako vesto vodjena do cilja.
Politika ulaganja stranog kapitala je takodje vesto vodjena. Dok
slusa neke zapadne drzavnike, covek ponekad zamislja da
liberalizacija trzista kapitala nije imala drugog cilja osim da im
omoguci da kapitalom natope zemlje treceg sveta i podare
im blagostanje i srecu. Medjunarodni monetarni fond, medjutim,
upravo ovih dana otkriva identitet ugrozene zemlje u koju
se slivala svekolika finansiska pomoc sveta. U 2000 godini prema
izvestaju MMF-a, "64% neto stranog kapitala otislo je Sjedinjenim
Americkim Drzavama. Poredjenja radi, podatak za 1999. glasi 60% a
za period od 1992. do 1997. 35% (2)" Semanticki vrlo nadahnuto,
sto mu inace nije uobicajeno, Medjunarodni monetarni fond kaze da
je to "lavovski deo"
Naravoucenije : Svakom se moze dogoditi da pogresi, ali i u slucaju
greske, najbolje je biti bogat i Amerikanac.

desnice, smatrao je da Palestinci nemaju "pravo na drzavu". Plasio
se eventualne intervencije predsednika Klintona protiv Iraka "zbog
toga sto ne verujem da ce smoci dovoljno cvrstine da je
okonca". Zalagao se za ukidanje programa pomoci ugrozenim
etnickim zajednicama u SAD: "To je donekle zato sto sam Jevrejin.
Na jevrejsku zajednicu otpada 30% mesta na Harvardu,
iako predstavljasamo samo 2% stanovnistva. Zapravo, svi ti
programi zdrave diskriminacije samo zaostravaju odnose medju
zajednicama."
Prava coveka su zaista u sigurnim rukama sa Ebramsom. Nema sta!

"LAVOVSKI DEO"
Smenjuju se nalik jedna drugoj privredne vesti
potvrdjujuci da izvesne analize i predvidjanja nisu bas uvek bile
nehotice promasene. Primerice, na ime ocekivanih suficita i raznih
fiskalnih doprinosa, bogatasima je efektivno smanjen porez u SAD
(1). No, kako su se predvidjeni suficiti izjalovili usled
usporenog privrednog rasta, sada pripremaju kresanje socijalnih
izdvajanja. U nadi da time poravnaju budzet poljuljan velikodusnom
fiskalnom politikom, koja bi opravdano mogla biti ocenjena kao
nepromisljena, da nije tako vesto vodjena do cilja.
Politika ulaganja stranog kapitala je takodje vesto vodjena. Dok
slusa neke zapadne drzavnike, covek ponekad zamislja da
liberalizacija trzista kapitala nije imala drugog cilja osim da im
omoguci da kapitalom natope zemlje treceg sveta i podare
im blagostanje i srecu. Medjunarodni monetarni fond, medjutim,
upravo ovih dana otkriva identitet ugrozene zemlje u koju
se slivala svekolika finansiska pomoc sveta. U 2000 godini prema
izvestaju MMF-a, "64% neto stranog kapitala otislo je Sjedinjenim
Americkim Drzavama. Poredjenja radi, podatak za 1999. glasi 60% a
za period od 1992. do 1997. 35% (2)" Semanticki vrlo nadahnuto,
sto mu inace nije uobicajeno, Medjunarodni monetarni fond kaze da
je to "lavovski deo"
Naravoucenije : Svakom se moze dogoditi da pogresi, ali i u slucaju
greske, najbolje je biti bogat i Amerikanac.

STENOGRAM
sa pojavljivanja predsednika Slobodana Milosevica
pred "Haskim tribunalom", 30. avgusta 2001. godine
u Hagu
SUDIJA MEJ:
Gospodine Milosevicu, postoje li kakva pitanja koja biste vi zeleli
izneti u vezi sa vasim slucajem ili u vezi sa vasim psihickim i
fizickim stanjem? Vi ste upoznati sa pravilnikom koji ne dopusta
nikakve govore u ovom trenutku. Vi cete imati priliku za to,
odnosno priliku da se branite kada za to dodje vreme, no, ukoliko
postoje neka pitanja koja zelite izneti u vezi sa vasim slucajem,
prilika je da to ucinite.
PREDSEDNIK SLOBODAN MILOSEVIC:
Kao prvo, zeleo bih da znam da li cu moci da govorim ili cete
iskljuciti mikrofon kao sto ste to ucinili poslednji put?
SUDIJA MEJ:
Gospodine Milosevicu, ukoliko budete postovali pravila imacete
mogucnosti da govorite, ako se budete drzali relevantnih pitanja
imacete mogucnosti da govorite.
PREDSEDNIK SLOBODAN MILOSEVIC:
Da, to bi bilo moje sledece pitanje. Ja bih hteo da kazem da je to
ilegalan sud.
SUDIJA MEJ:
Vi ste vec izneli prigovor po tom pitanju. Da li vi sada trazite da
vam se odobri mogucnost da se Vecu obratite usmeno u vezi s tim
pitanjem?
PREDSEDNIK SLOBODAN MILOSEVIC:
Za usmeno izlaganje trebace mi 40 minuta. Posto mi to ne
dozvoljavate, ja cu to izneti u pisanom obliku. Moji saradnici ce to
izneti u stampi ukoliko vi meni ne dozvolite da to javno sada
iznesem.
SUDIJA MEJ:
Ukoliko vi to ucinite u pisanom obliku to ce biti objavljeno kada za
to dodje vreme. Ako vec sada to imate napisano onda ce biti
daleko prikladnije da se to obradi na taj nacin.
PREDSEDNIK SLOBODAN MILOSEVIC:
Da, u redu! Ali potrebno je da razgovaramo kao civilizovane
osobe. Ne na nacin da mi iskljucujete mikrofone, ili da se koristi
bilo kakva sila. Potrebno je da se razumemo kada je rec o tome sta
je moguce, a sto nije. Dakle, kad ne dopustate usmeno, ja cu to
predati vama u pisanom obliku.
SUDIJA MEJ:
U redu.
PREDSEDNIK SLOBODAN MILOSEVIC:
Ako dozvolite, jos bih komentarisao ono sto sam sada upravo cuo.
Cuo sam, naime, nesto vrlo zanimljivo, sto dokazuje ono sto su
vec rekli pre 3. jula u ovoj istoj prostoriji. Naime, da se radi o
jednoj laznoj optuznici. Ja sam optuzen 26. maja, 60-tog dana
NATO-ve agresije protiv Jugoslavije, dok sam ja branio svoju
zemlju. Dakle, dve i po godine su protekle od tog datuma, i mi smo
upravo sada culi da oni koji tuze nemaju dokaze, da oni ne mogu
dovrsiti svoju optuznicu. Dve i po godine je vrlo dugo vreme cak i
za kompletiranje jedne lazne optuznice, a ono sto smo mi upravo
culi je dokaz za to. Naravno, uzimajuci u obzir cinjenicu da ja ne
priznajem ovaj tribunal i da imam vrlo jasno misljenje koje
dokazuju pravne cinjenice, misljenje, naime, da je ovaj tribunal
nelegalan, ja ne vidim zasto bih se ja sada branio pred laznim
sudom na temelju jedne lazne optuznice. Dakle, to je jos jedno
objasnjenje koje sam zeleo da iznesem.
Ako mi dozvolite ja bih sada vama postavio neka pitanja koja se
ticu mojeg polozaja u jednom protivpravnom pritvoru.
SUDIJA MEJ:
Ne mozete postavljati pitanja. No, ukoliko zelite izneti nesto u
vezi sa tim, vi to mozete uciniti.
PREDSEDNIK SLOBODAN MILOSEVIC:
Po nalogu ove nelegalne institucije, ja sam u potpunoj izolaciji.
Moje pitanje s tim u vezi je zasto sam ja izolovan od svoje
porodice, zasto me moja porodica ne moze posetiti na isti nacin
kako to cine porodice drugih koji imaju tu mogucnost? Zasto se
prate posete moje porodice, zasto prisluskujete razgovore koje ja
vodim cak i sa mojim unukom koji je star samo dve i po godine?!
Zasto? Zasto cinite sve to? Zasto na tako grub nacin krsite moja
prava? Zasto sam izolovan od osoba koje bi zelele da me posete i
sa kojima imam potrebu da razgovaram, s kojima zelim da
razgovaram o raznoraznim pravnim aspektima mog polozaja u
ovom ilegalnom pritvoru.
SUDIJA MEJ:
Da zastanemo na trenutak. Pravila koja se ticu pritvora potpadaju
pod nadleznost sekretara Medjunarodnog suda. Ukoliko se
primenjuju na vas na nacin razlicit od drugih pritvorenika, mi cemo
se o tome raspitati. Samo trenutak.
Poteskoca koja se vezuje za advokate je sledeca. Vi, naime, jos
uvek niste odabrali odnosno imenovali advokata. A, pravila
dozvoljavaju samo posete od strane imenovanih advokata. Ja sada
zelim znati da li je vas stav da se vi zelite braniti sami, da ne
zelite da vam se imenuje advokat, ali zelite imati pristup pravnim
savetnicima. Da li bi to bio adekvatan rezime vaseg stava?
PREDSEDNIK SLOBODAN MILOSEVIC:
Jasno je da ja imam pravo na kontakt sa razlicitim strucnjacima u
vezi sa razlicitim aspektima mog polozaja u protivpravnom
pritvoru. Osim toga, ja imam pravo kontakta sa advokatima koji se
bave mojim privatnim stvarima u Jugoslaviji. Isto tako imam pravo
na kontakt sa advokatima koji su angazovani u nekim
medjunarodnim organizacijama koje me podrzavaju. Ja imam pravo
na komuniciranje s tim ljudima, ne razumem kako to moze da se
primenjuje na diskriminatoran nacin. Koliko ja shvatam, pravni
sistem se zasniva na nepostojanju bilo kakve diskriminacije, a ja
sam diskriminisan od prvog dana od kada sam ovde.
SUDIJA MEJ:
Problem, gospodine Milosevicu, lezi u cinjenici da vi niste
imenovali advokata. Nase osoblje mora postovati pravila. Osoba
koja ima pravo na pravne posete je vas imenovani advokat. Ali vi
ste izneli dve stvari u vezi s kojima zelite primiti savet. Dakle, vi
zelite savet u vezi sa vasim polozajem ovde u ovom postupku, isto
tako, kada je rec o vasim stvarima, o vasim poslovima u
Jugoslaviji. Je li tako?
PREDSEDNIK SLOBODAN MILOSEVIC:
Naravno, to je tako. I ja imam jos na umu citav niz drugih stvari u
vezi s kojima zelim da razgovaram sa osobama koje zele da me
posete i koje zele da sa mnom kontaktiraju.
SUDIJA MEJ:
Na prvom Vecu cu se o tome raspitati I obavestiti vas. I to cemo
uzeti u obzir.
PREDSEDNIK SLOBODAN MILOSEVIC:
Trece pitanje je zasto sam ja izolovan od stampe?! Zasto mi se ne
dozvoljava nikakav kontakt? Vi me drzite u izolaciji, ja nemam
pravo na bilo kakav kontakt sa medijima. Cak ni telefonom koji mi
je za sada jedini na raspolaganju. Ovde su neki predstavnici
stampe i medija koji bi zeleli da znaju istinu. Ja mislim da niko ne
treba da se boji istine. S jedne strane, postoji citava ta masinerija
koju vi predstavljate, sve te tajne sluzbe, vojne organizacije, na
mojoj strani je jedino - istina. Ukoliko vi mene izolujete, ukoliko
mi onemogucavate kontakt sa stampom, onda je jasno da se ovde
radi o diskriminaciji. Vi cak ne mozete, na bilo koji nacin, da
nekoga uverite, da pravilno postupate u vezi sa postupkom koji
imate na umu.
I jos da vas podsetim, ja ne priznajem ovaj Medjunarodni tribunal,
smatram ga potpuno protivpravnim i nelegalnim. Sva ta pitanja
koja se ticu advokata i pravnog zastupanja su sasvim izlisna. Ja
sam video u stampi.
SUDIJA MEJ:
Gospodine Milosevicu, moramo ovde uneti reda. Samo trenutak.
Prvo, ono sto ste pokrenuli. Pitanje koje ste pokrenuli. Prema
pravilima pritvorske jedinice, ne postiji nikakav kontakt sa
medijima. Ta pravila se ne ticu samo vas. Ne radi se ni o kakvoj
diskriminaciji. Ta se pravila primenjuju na sve optuzenike koji su u
pritvoru. Sto se tice cinjenice da vi ne priznajete Medjunarodni
tribunal, mi smo to culi, i nema nikakve potrebe da se to ponavlja.
Postoji li jos nesto sto zelite izneti?
PREDSEDNIK SLOBODAN MILOSEVIC:
Koliko sam ja shvatio, oni se bave tim pitanjem protivzakonitosti
suda, nelegalnosti, dakle, to je pitanje nadleznosti. Svakom
advokatu na ovom svetu je jasno da se pitanje nadleznosti moze
pokrenuti pred svakom pravnom institucijom. Medjutim, vi niste
pravna institucija, vi ste politicko sredstvo.
SUDIJA MEJ:
Gospodine Milosevicu, mi necemo sada slusati ove politicke
argumente. Vi mozete da podnesete podnesak o nadleznosti, mi
cemo taj podnesak i razmotriti. Mi cemo podnesak razmotriti.
U redu, rasprava je zavrsena. A nastavicemo u ponedeljak 29.
oktobra.
Molimo ustanite.

What follows is the statement that president Milosevic was
not allowed to read when he appeared, August 30, before the
"tribunal" in the Hague.
STATEMENT
OF PRESIDENT SLOBODAN MILOSEVIC
ON THE ILLEGITIMACY OF THE HAGUE
"TRIBUNAL"
There are three fatal legal flaws in the so called International
Criminal Tribunal for the Former Yugoslavia. Each has disastrous
consequences for the human quest for peace, the rule of law,
democracy, truth and justice.
1. THE CHARTER OF THE UNITED
NATIONS DOES NOT EMPOWER THE
SECURITY COUNCIL TO CREATE A
CRIMINAL COURT
The U.N. Security Council has seized power it does not possess,
corrupting the Charter of the United Nations, placing itself above
the law and threatening "We Peoples of the United Nations" with
a lawless future in which a superpower employs the scourge of
war to have its way. Nothing in the history of the planning,
drafting, discussion, approval or ratifications of the U.N. Charter
implies, or is consistent with an intention to empower any body
created by, or under, the Charter to establish any criminal tribunal.
The words of the Charter and their textual inferences, the
structure and allocation of power and duties, including those in the
incorporated Statute for the International Court of Justice, all
negate the existence of any capacity under the Charter to ordain
criminal courts. The Criminal Tribunal for Former Yugoslavia is
illegitimate and its creation a corruption of the United Nations.
There would never have been a United Nations if its Charter
stated, or implied, that a criminal court could be created under its
authority. No one who believes in historical truth, or that words
have meaning can, after examining the history of its creation and
its text, contend that the Charter of the United Nations empowers
the Security Council to create a criminal court.
An International Criminal Court Can Be Created
Only By A Multinational Treaty, Or
Amendment To The Charter Of The United Nations
The national representatives ho have served on the Security
Council and in the General Assembly and the scholars, lawyers
and experts who have labored for more than thirty years to bring
into being an international criminal court have recognized that the
only lawful and binding way such a court can be created is by an
agreement among nations through a treaty agreed upon for that
purpose, or by amending the Charter of the United Nations under
its strict provisions regulating amendments to authorize, or
establish a court.
When an International Criminal Court was finally agreed upon in
July 1998 by 120 nations meeting in Rome, it was by treaty which
had been studied, drafted and debated for years. The United
States, the most powerful participant in that long process,
consistently sought to weaken the treaty to exempt U.S. leaders
and military personnel from prosecution before it. Having failed
the U.S. was then the most prominent and powerful of the handful
of nations that refused to sign. As of August 1, 2001 37 nations,
the Netherlands the most recent, had ratified the treaty.
The United States is vigorously trying to persuade, coerce, or
bribe nations not to ratify.
Creation Of The International Criminal Tribunal
For The Former Yugoslavia Was A Lawless Act Of
Political Expediency By The United States Designed
To Demonize And Destroy An Enemy And Frustrate
Creation Of A Legitimate International Criminal Tribunal
At the insistence of the U.S. the Security Council nearly fifty
years after it came into being forged a new and powerful weapon
capable of demonizing a nation and its people and depriving
individuals of their liberty for the rest of their lives and placed it
largely in the hands of the United States. The principal precedents
for such pseudo judicial actions over several millennia preceding
the creation of the U.N. are trials of leaders and soldiers of
vanquished populations by the victors in war, and courts used by
colonial powers to control and punish subjugated peoples. The
precedents are many and the violence and cruelty and hatred they
usually exposed and caused was extreme.
Unless It is Limited By The U.N. Charter And
International Law, The Security Council Can Do
Whatever It Chooses To Do
If it is not restrained by the United Nations Charter, the Security
Council can commit any act it desires disregarding all law. Early
proponents of United States world power claimed such unbridled
discretion for the Security Council publicly. Thus in 1950 John
Foster Dullas wrote:
"The Security Council is not a body that
merely enforces agreed law. It is a law unto
itself... No principles of law are laid down
to guide it, it can decide in accordance with
what it thinks is expedient."
If unchallenged, this concept of Security Council power means
that the most powerful international organ created by the Charter
of the United Nations "to end the scourge of war" is above all law,
domestic and international.
But absolute discretion is the very definition of lawlessness and
has been called "more destructive of freedom than any other of
man's inventions," by U.S. Supreme Court Justice William O.
Douglas. All rights of all nations, races, religions, cultures,
political parties and individuals are thereby subordinated to the
will of the Security Council, and the single superpower that too
often will dominate it. All but fifteen nations are excluded from
Security Council counsels. Each of the five permanent members
can veto its actions.
The Security Council is subject to domination by a single nation.
The representative of each member votes as instructed by the
national government that appoints him and to serve the interests
of that government, not as an international statesman serving all
peoples and the purposes for which the U.N. was created. The
Security Council is inaccessible, anonymous and less responsive
to democratic processes than any other international political
institution.
2. A ONE TIME, ONE EPISODE COURT
TARGETING ONE COUNTRY, CREATED
BY INTERNATIONAL POLITICAL POWER
TO SERVE ITS GEO-POLITICAL
INTERESTS IS INCAPABLE OF EQUALITY
AND CONDUCTIVE OF DIVISION AND
VIOLENCE
The illegitimate Criminal Tribunal for Former Yugoslavia corrupts
justice and law because it is incapable of acting equally among
nations, or within the politically targeted nation. It will increase
violence, division and the risk of war with neighboring nations and
peoples and within Yugoslavia among the segments of the society
the U.S. policy of balkanization of Former Yugoslavia has set
against each other and against the new government the U.S. has
installed for its own purposes. If the United Nations Charter had
authorized the Security Council to create criminal courts, it could
not create a court for one nation, or episode for political purposes,
to persecute selected groups, or persons and such a court is
incapable of equal justice under law. An ad hoc court violates the
most basic principles of all law. Equality is the mother of justice.
An international court established to prosecute acts in a single
nation and primarily, if not entirely, one limited group is pre
programmed to persecute incapable of equality.
If the Security Council can create a criminal court to prosecute
conduct in a single country like Yugoslavia, it can appoint a court
for any country, selecting enemies or political and economic
opportunities for targeting one at a time, while never exposing
itself, or those who comply with its wishes to such selective
prosecution. If the U.S., or any ally or client state it chose to
protect was the subject of a serious effort by the Security Council
to be honored with a criminal tribunal in its own name, the U.S.
would veto the threatened action.
A Court created only for crimes in one country is by definition
discriminatory, incapable of equal justice, a weapon against
chosen enemies, or antagonistic interests and war by other
means. If there is to be any international criminal court, it must
act equally as to all nations with none above the law. The ad hoc
tribunal for a single nation corrupts international law.
By its very nature, the ad hoc Tribunal can be created only after
the conduct the Security Council decides justifies creation of the
Court since there is no other excuse for its creation. It is in every
case ex post facto. This violates an ancient principle of law. It
also requires the Security Council, if there is to be a rational basis
for its action, to make some preliminary claim to finding of facts, a
task such a political body is not designed for, that inherently
incriminates a country, or faction by placing the imprimatur of the
Security Council of the United Nations on a political decision of
fact necessary to justify creation of the Tribunal. The very charge
of the Security Council - genocide, crimes against peace, war
crimes, or crimes against humanity demonized any person
thereafter accused.
The Selection Of A Nation For Prosecution
On Political Findings Of Genocide, War Crimes
And Crimes Against Humanity Creates
A Compulsion to Convict.
Investigators, prosecutors and administrative personnel who join
a temporary Tribunal to pursue allegations of humanities greatest
crimes against a people and leaders already demonized will feel
they have failed if there are not convictions. The very psychology
of the enterprise is persecutorial. Few judges appointed to serve
on a Tribunal created under such circumstances will feel free to
acquit any but the most marginal, or clearly mistaken, accused, or
to create an appearance of objectivity.
Powers That Create Ad Hoc International Criminal
Tribunals Divert Attention From Their Own
Offenses, Or Failures, Or Those Of Allies And
Their Political Surrogates While Continuing
To Inflect And Threaten Mass Destruction With Impunity.
The ad hoc Tribunal which targets a country is incapable of
prosecuting what may be greater crimes committed in the same
conflict, by a power, coalition ally or political agents that was and
remains a much greater source of violence and threat to peace.
Most often the power which forced the creation of the target
tribunal to further damage and demonize their enemy is shielded
from criticism by the avalanche of propaganda against the
accused supported by the appearance of United Nations neutrality
and peace making efforts.
What court will consider the criminality of aerial bombardment by
U.S. aircraft of defenseless civilians, their housing, water
systems, power plants, factories, office buildings, schools,
hospitals, which take thousands of lives directly and causes
billions of dollars of property damages in Belgrade, Nis, Novi Sad
and scores of other cities, towns and villages? What threat to
peace continues from the U.S. bombing of the Chinese Embassy?
Who will be held accountable for the devastation of Pristina by
NATO planes, or the attacks on refugee columns in Kosovo and
Metohia? Is the U.S. use of cluster bombs exploding razor sharp
metal fragments over an area as large as a soccer field in the
courtyard at the hospital in Nis no crime? Will the Security
Council act to prevent and punish the use of depleted uranium by
the U.S. which is as indiscriminate in its radiation as the air, the
water, the soil and food hain it touches and contaminates for
millions of years?
International law accepts bombing of defenseless civilian
populations by a militarily advanced technology that can destroy a
country without even setting foot on its soil because supper
power controls international prosecutions and determines
violations. The dominant element in modern military power is
mass destruction. Victors are nations with the greatest capacity
for mass destruction. This places civilian populations at maximum
peril infrastructure supporting civilian life, buildings, water, power,
transportation, communication, food production, storage and
distribution, health care, schools, churches, mosques,
synagogues, foreign embassies were the direct object of U.S.
aerial and missile attacks. Several thousands of civilians were
killed directly and many more indirectly. The U.S. claims it had
159 casualties, a third from friendly fire, none from combat.
In 1998, the U.S. directed 21 Tomahawk Cruise missiles from
international waters to destroy the El Shifa pharmaceutical plant
in Khartoum, Sudan which provided more than half the medicines
available for a people who are very poor and have been unable to
replace that supply. The U.S. continues to support insurrection in
the South of Sudan and threaten Sudan with prosecution in an ad
hoc international criminal tribunal.
NATO does not claim it prevented violence within Kosovo and
Metohia among the Serbian, ethnic Albanian and other peoples. In
fact, NATO accelerated that violence. It bombed Serbia for 79
days targeting civilians and citizens destroying billions of dollars
worth of civilian facilities, using illegal weapons including cluster
bombs, destroying the civilian Serbian TV and radio buildings. It
bombed Kosovo and Metohia heaviest of all, destroying most of
Pristina, killing thousands of Albanians, Muslims, Serbs, Romany,
Turks and others, and causing hundreds of thousands of people to
flee from Kosovo and Metohia. Damage to the Yugoslavia military
was negligible. In the summer of 2001 the U.S. continues to use
cluster bombs in northern and southern Iraq which it attacks on
most days.
And in 1999 when the U.S. and NATO countries came into
Kosovo and Metohia, as a "security force", they refused to
intervene on the ground to protect people who were endangered in
the province.
There will be no remedy or relief for Serbian victims of atrocities,
some 500.000 purged by Croatia with the approval, if not on
instructions of the U.S., forever from their homes in Krajina, the
more than 330.000 permanently purged from Kosovo and Metohia
since the cease fire in 1999, or for the thousands of Serbs,
Romany and others killed by the U.S. and NATO bombing
assaults, or by the U.S.-supported terrorist organization, the so
called KLA, before, during and after the assaults. The
Macedonians killed, injured and driven from their homes by U.S.
condoned if not instigated KLA aggressions which threaten civil
war in Macedonia and general war in the Balkans will not lead the
Security Council to create a Court to prosecute the perpetrators.
Major Powers Are Not Accountable For Their
Actions Which Cause War, Insurrection
And Violence Within Targeted Countries.
There will be no accountability by the U.S., Germany and other
nations whose acts and pressures forced the break-up of
Yugoslavia, stripping Slovenia, Croatia, Bosnia, Macedonia and
attempted stripping of parts of Serbia like Kosovo and Metohia.
The U.S. and several European nations have balkanized the region
in the most artificial and forced apartheid the Balkans, or any
other part of the world has ever known. Their acts have made
peace, stability and prosperity impossible. Economic viability of
small fragmented parts depends on foreign economic interests
intended to dominate and exploit the region. The new apartheid
leads to U.S. planned conflicts between the western Catholic
Croatians and the eastern Orthodox Serbs, creating conflict and a
wall between western and eastern Europe. More dangerous, it
sets the stage for violence, encouraging international conflicts
between Slavic peoples and Muslims to decimate and debilitate
the obstacles to the U.S. world order. Kosovo and Metohia, as a
part of Serbia, and Macedonia are current examples in a long list
of tragic and avoidable violence between Muslims and Slavs,
which has occurred to different extents in Afghanistan, Dagestan,
Chechnya, Kazakhstan, Kyrgystan, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan,
Uzbekistan and Bosnia.
A Federal Republic Of Balkan States Long
Set Against Each Other By Foreign Powers
Was Formed To Established Peace, Cooperation
And Prosperity.
The idea of Yugoslavia, a Balkan federation to heal divisions and
provide a better chance for living together in peace and prosperity,
was seen as important in the years after World War I as a means
to peace. While the idea floundered between the two worst wars
in history, it worked with remarkable success after World War II
in which it was ravaged, but unconquered. An independent and
unified Federal Republic of Yugoslavia was a long term
successful solution for south Slavic peoples. It was a bulwark of
the Non Aligned Movement. With the collapse of the Soviet and
Eastern bloc economy it was the remaining socialist government
threatening capitalist control of Europe. With its mixed market
economy it offered an example to former Eastern bloc countries
for revival of their economic and political independence. With a
successful, functioning Federal Republic of Yugoslavia there was
living proof history had not ended, that more than one economic
system was possible.
After the collapse of the Eastern bloc economy a greater Balkan
federation a south eastern European Union was seen by many in
the region as the means to prevent economic exploitation, avoid
violence and develop a strong and independent political, social and
economic region.
Foreign capital and the geopolitical interests of the U.S.
considered this a dangerous obstacle to their plans for the new
world order, globalization, new colonialism.
The United States Having Demonized
Yugoslavia Attacks It With Impunity
And Persecutes Its Leadership.
The U.S. mercilessly bombed Yugoslavia for 79 day. It tried to
assassinate me by bombing my home, offices and other places,
where it believed I might be. It attempted to kill Libya's head of
State Muammar Qaddafi in its 1986 raid on Tripoli and Iraqi
president Saddam Hussein on numerous occasions beginning in
1991, including its 1993 cruise missile attack on the Al Rashid in
Baghdad at a time it believed he would be there meeting
international Islamic leaders.
Through economic sanctions, the most extreme and overt form of
forced impoverishment and economic assault, the U.S. has
coerced the Security Council into complicity in the longest
deadliest and cruelest genocide of the last decade, the sanctions
against its enemy Iraq which have killed at least 2 million people,
the majority children. The United States has forced economic
sanctions against Yugoslavia, severely damaging its civilian
economy and eroding its will to independence.
Can a criminal tribunal for Yugoslavia which ignores pervasive
violence by the U.S. and diverts public awareness from United
States conduct and legitimatizes by silent acceptance aerial and
missile assaults on civilians and illegal weapons use against one
country after another, making its repetition expected before it
occurs, contribute to the hope for the rule of law, justice or peace?
The United States, itself, immune from control, or prosecution and
above the law, uses its power to cause the persecution of
enemies it selects to terrorize and further demonize. It
manufactures and sells arms to chosen nations, to groups seeking
to overthrow governments it opposes, uses illegal weapons
against defenseless people with impunity, continues to
consolidate and expand its near monopoly of nuclear weapons and
sophisticated rocketry, spends trillion on unilateral protection
from Star Wars assuring a continued arms race while poverty
overwhelms billions, hunger cripples millions, starvation takes
hundreds of thousands of lives and AIDS spreads among poor
nations.
It cripples international environmental protection, undermines
control of nuclear weapons by threatening to withdraw from long
standing protections of the ABM and Non Proliferation treaties. It
refuses to ratify treaties to protect life from land mines which it
continues to manufacture, sell and deploy. It threatens to
undermine a treaty controlling biological and chemical warfare.
And the United States regularly engages in covert operations and
violent military interventions in other nations in violation of their
sovereignty and law.
The so called ICTY is not just another arrow in the arsenal of the
United States with which it persecutes and demonizes enemies
and corrupts international law. The ICTY celebrates inequality in
the rule of law using criminal sanctions to destroy selected
leaders and governments.
It is poisonous arrow destructive of the foundations of peace
among independent nations of equal rights and dignity.
3. THE INTERNATIONAL CRIMINAL
TRIBUNAL FOR FORMER YUGOSLAVIA IS
INCAPABLE OF PROTECTING
FUNDAMENTAL RIGHTS, OR PROVIDING
DUE PROCESS OF LAW.
Such an ad hoc Tribunal has a temporary and limited purpose
without helpful precedent, common tradition or relevant
experience. It lacks power to enforce orders, or compel the
disclosure of evidence and presence of witnesses, particularly for
the defense.
It is not capable of finding facts fairly, or defining and applying
legal principles equally. It cannot do justice.
The statutory mandate for the ICTY makes it hostile to concern
for the rights of those accused before it, because it is told the
crimes charged have occurred and the accused have been
demonized.
The right to assistance of counsel, so firmly established in
international law, has been denied and frustrated by the Tribunal
even in its most prominent cases. The Registry denied to me the
right to consult with lawyers of my choice on legal matters for
several weeks after my arraignment.
The Registrar wrote that for the one attorney who visited me
during that time and for only two hours, it would have been
''inappropriate'' to discuss the case because the conversation
was monitored and confidences would be violated. Lawyers from
Yugoslavia I ask to consult, with one exception, a monitored two
hours visit, were still denied approval and visas to enter the
Netherlands seven weeks after my arraignment.
Instead I was held in solitary confinement. I was able to visit my
wife only after more than two weeks imprisonment and then only
through sound proof glass using monitored telephones. She was
prohibited from speaking with the press and kept isolated from all
public contacts while in the Netherlands, a virtual prisoner in her
hotel room, except as she traveled between the airport, the prison
and the hotel.
The Ad Hoc Tribunal Is Intended To Demonize
And Destroy, Not To Fairly Determine Facts,
Protect Rights Of The Accessed, And Apply
Legal Principles Equally.
Unfair phenomena is inherent in the purpose and the nature of
temporary ad hoc tribunal, struggling without personnel who are
part of a legal tradition, far removed from the place the accused
came from and the events occurred where the court is charged by
its creator not to presume innocence, but that terrible crimes have
occurred and the accused are from the group that committed them.
They do this to protect thr real criminals, the NATO leaders who
killed thousands of innocent people in NATO's criminal
aggression.

STENOGRAM
sa pojavljivanja predsednika Slobodana Milosevica
pred "Haskim tribunalom", 30. avgusta 2001. godine
u Hagu
SUDIJA MEJ:
Gospodine Milosevicu, postoje li kakva pitanja koja biste vi zeleli
izneti u vezi sa vasim slucajem ili u vezi sa vasim psihickim i
fizickim stanjem? Vi ste upoznati sa pravilnikom koji ne dopusta
nikakve govore u ovom trenutku. Vi cete imati priliku za to,
odnosno priliku da se branite kada za to dodje vreme, no, ukoliko
postoje neka pitanja koja zelite izneti u vezi sa vasim slucajem,
prilika je da to ucinite.
PREDSEDNIK SLOBODAN MILOSEVIC:
Kao prvo, zeleo bih da znam da li cu moci da govorim ili cete
iskljuciti mikrofon kao sto ste to ucinili poslednji put?
SUDIJA MEJ:
Gospodine Milosevicu, ukoliko budete postovali pravila imacete
mogucnosti da govorite, ako se budete drzali relevantnih pitanja
imacete mogucnosti da govorite.
PREDSEDNIK SLOBODAN MILOSEVIC:
Da, to bi bilo moje sledece pitanje. Ja bih hteo da kazem da je to
ilegalan sud.
SUDIJA MEJ:
Vi ste vec izneli prigovor po tom pitanju. Da li vi sada trazite da
vam se odobri mogucnost da se Vecu obratite usmeno u vezi s tim
pitanjem?
PREDSEDNIK SLOBODAN MILOSEVIC:
Za usmeno izlaganje trebace mi 40 minuta. Posto mi to ne
dozvoljavate, ja cu to izneti u pisanom obliku. Moji saradnici ce to
izneti u stampi ukoliko vi meni ne dozvolite da to javno sada
iznesem.
SUDIJA MEJ:
Ukoliko vi to ucinite u pisanom obliku to ce biti objavljeno kada za
to dodje vreme. Ako vec sada to imate napisano onda ce biti
daleko prikladnije da se to obradi na taj nacin.
PREDSEDNIK SLOBODAN MILOSEVIC:
Da, u redu! Ali potrebno je da razgovaramo kao civilizovane
osobe. Ne na nacin da mi iskljucujete mikrofone, ili da se koristi
bilo kakva sila. Potrebno je da se razumemo kada je rec o tome sta
je moguce, a sto nije. Dakle, kad ne dopustate usmeno, ja cu to
predati vama u pisanom obliku.
SUDIJA MEJ:
U redu.
PREDSEDNIK SLOBODAN MILOSEVIC:
Ako dozvolite, jos bih komentarisao ono sto sam sada upravo cuo.
Cuo sam, naime, nesto vrlo zanimljivo, sto dokazuje ono sto su
vec rekli pre 3. jula u ovoj istoj prostoriji. Naime, da se radi o
jednoj laznoj optuznici. Ja sam optuzen 26. maja, 60-tog dana
NATO-ve agresije protiv Jugoslavije, dok sam ja branio svoju
zemlju. Dakle, dve i po godine su protekle od tog datuma, i mi smo
upravo sada culi da oni koji tuze nemaju dokaze, da oni ne mogu
dovrsiti svoju optuznicu. Dve i po godine je vrlo dugo vreme cak i
za kompletiranje jedne lazne optuznice, a ono sto smo mi upravo
culi je dokaz za to. Naravno, uzimajuci u obzir cinjenicu da ja ne
priznajem ovaj tribunal i da imam vrlo jasno misljenje koje
dokazuju pravne cinjenice, misljenje, naime, da je ovaj tribunal
nelegalan, ja ne vidim zasto bih se ja sada branio pred laznim
sudom na temelju jedne lazne optuznice. Dakle, to je jos jedno
objasnjenje koje sam zeleo da iznesem.
Ako mi dozvolite ja bih sada vama postavio neka pitanja koja se
ticu mojeg polozaja u jednom protivpravnom pritvoru.
SUDIJA MEJ:
Ne mozete postavljati pitanja. No, ukoliko zelite izneti nesto u
vezi sa tim, vi to mozete uciniti.
PREDSEDNIK SLOBODAN MILOSEVIC:
Po nalogu ove nelegalne institucije, ja sam u potpunoj izolaciji.
Moje pitanje s tim u vezi je zasto sam ja izolovan od svoje
porodice, zasto me moja porodica ne moze posetiti na isti nacin
kako to cine porodice drugih koji imaju tu mogucnost? Zasto se
prate posete moje porodice, zasto prisluskujete razgovore koje ja
vodim cak i sa mojim unukom koji je star samo dve i po godine?!
Zasto? Zasto cinite sve to? Zasto na tako grub nacin krsite moja
prava? Zasto sam izolovan od osoba koje bi zelele da me posete i
sa kojima imam potrebu da razgovaram, s kojima zelim da
razgovaram o raznoraznim pravnim aspektima mog polozaja u
ovom ilegalnom pritvoru.
SUDIJA MEJ:
Da zastanemo na trenutak. Pravila koja se ticu pritvora potpadaju
pod nadleznost sekretara Medjunarodnog suda. Ukoliko se
primenjuju na vas na nacin razlicit od drugih pritvorenika, mi cemo
se o tome raspitati. Samo trenutak.
Poteskoca koja se vezuje za advokate je sledeca. Vi, naime, jos
uvek niste odabrali odnosno imenovali advokata. A, pravila
dozvoljavaju samo posete od strane imenovanih advokata. Ja sada
zelim znati da li je vas stav da se vi zelite braniti sami, da ne
zelite da vam se imenuje advokat, ali zelite imati pristup pravnim
savetnicima. Da li bi to bio adekvatan rezime vaseg stava?
PREDSEDNIK SLOBODAN MILOSEVIC:
Jasno je da ja imam pravo na kontakt sa razlicitim strucnjacima u
vezi sa razlicitim aspektima mog polozaja u protivpravnom
pritvoru. Osim toga, ja imam pravo kontakta sa advokatima koji se
bave mojim privatnim stvarima u Jugoslaviji. Isto tako imam pravo
na kontakt sa advokatima koji su angazovani u nekim
medjunarodnim organizacijama koje me podrzavaju. Ja imam pravo
na komuniciranje s tim ljudima, ne razumem kako to moze da se
primenjuje na diskriminatoran nacin. Koliko ja shvatam, pravni
sistem se zasniva na nepostojanju bilo kakve diskriminacije, a ja
sam diskriminisan od prvog dana od kada sam ovde.
SUDIJA MEJ:
Problem, gospodine Milosevicu, lezi u cinjenici da vi niste
imenovali advokata. Nase osoblje mora postovati pravila. Osoba
koja ima pravo na pravne posete je vas imenovani advokat. Ali vi
ste izneli dve stvari u vezi s kojima zelite primiti savet. Dakle, vi
zelite savet u vezi sa vasim polozajem ovde u ovom postupku, isto
tako, kada je rec o vasim stvarima, o vasim poslovima u
Jugoslaviji. Je li tako?
PREDSEDNIK SLOBODAN MILOSEVIC:
Naravno, to je tako. I ja imam jos na umu citav niz drugih stvari u
vezi s kojima zelim da razgovaram sa osobama koje zele da me
posete i koje zele da sa mnom kontaktiraju.
SUDIJA MEJ:
Na prvom Vecu cu se o tome raspitati I obavestiti vas. I to cemo
uzeti u obzir.
PREDSEDNIK SLOBODAN MILOSEVIC:
Trece pitanje je zasto sam ja izolovan od stampe?! Zasto mi se ne
dozvoljava nikakav kontakt? Vi me drzite u izolaciji, ja nemam
pravo na bilo kakav kontakt sa medijima. Cak ni telefonom koji mi
je za sada jedini na raspolaganju. Ovde su neki predstavnici
stampe i medija koji bi zeleli da znaju istinu. Ja mislim da niko ne
treba da se boji istine. S jedne strane, postoji citava ta masinerija
koju vi predstavljate, sve te tajne sluzbe, vojne organizacije, na
mojoj strani je jedino - istina. Ukoliko vi mene izolujete, ukoliko
mi onemogucavate kontakt sa stampom, onda je jasno da se ovde
radi o diskriminaciji. Vi cak ne mozete, na bilo koji nacin, da
nekoga uverite, da pravilno postupate u vezi sa postupkom koji
imate na umu.
I jos da vas podsetim, ja ne priznajem ovaj Medjunarodni tribunal,
smatram ga potpuno protivpravnim i nelegalnim. Sva ta pitanja
koja se ticu advokata i pravnog zastupanja su sasvim izlisna. Ja
sam video u stampi.
SUDIJA MEJ:
Gospodine Milosevicu, moramo ovde uneti reda. Samo trenutak.
Prvo, ono sto ste pokrenuli. Pitanje koje ste pokrenuli. Prema
pravilima pritvorske jedinice, ne postiji nikakav kontakt sa
medijima. Ta pravila se ne ticu samo vas. Ne radi se ni o kakvoj
diskriminaciji. Ta se pravila primenjuju na sve optuzenike koji su u
pritvoru. Sto se tice cinjenice da vi ne priznajete Medjunarodni
tribunal, mi smo to culi, i nema nikakve potrebe da se to ponavlja.
Postoji li jos nesto sto zelite izneti?
PREDSEDNIK SLOBODAN MILOSEVIC:
Koliko sam ja shvatio, oni se bave tim pitanjem protivzakonitosti
suda, nelegalnosti, dakle, to je pitanje nadleznosti. Svakom
advokatu na ovom svetu je jasno da se pitanje nadleznosti moze
pokrenuti pred svakom pravnom institucijom. Medjutim, vi niste
pravna institucija, vi ste politicko sredstvo.
SUDIJA MEJ:
Gospodine Milosevicu, mi necemo sada slusati ove politicke
argumente. Vi mozete da podnesete podnesak o nadleznosti, mi
cemo taj podnesak i razmotriti. Mi cemo podnesak razmotriti.
U redu, rasprava je zavrsena. A nastavicemo u ponedeljak 29.
oktobra.
Molimo ustanite.

What follows is the statement that president Milosevic was
not allowed to read when he appeared, August 30, before the
"tribunal" in the Hague.
STATEMENT
OF PRESIDENT SLOBODAN MILOSEVIC
ON THE ILLEGITIMACY OF THE HAGUE
"TRIBUNAL"
There are three fatal legal flaws in the so called International
Criminal Tribunal for the Former Yugoslavia. Each has disastrous
consequences for the human quest for peace, the rule of law,
democracy, truth and justice.
1. THE CHARTER OF THE UNITED
NATIONS DOES NOT EMPOWER THE
SECURITY COUNCIL TO CREATE A
CRIMINAL COURT
The U.N. Security Council has seized power it does not possess,
corrupting the Charter of the United Nations, placing itself above
the law and threatening "We Peoples of the United Nations" with
a lawless future in which a superpower employs the scourge of
war to have its way. Nothing in the history of the planning,
drafting, discussion, approval or ratifications of the U.N. Charter
implies, or is consistent with an intention to empower any body
created by, or under, the Charter to establish any criminal tribunal.
The words of the Charter and their textual inferences, the
structure and allocation of power and duties, including those in the
incorporated Statute for the International Court of Justice, all
negate the existence of any capacity under the Charter to ordain
criminal courts. The Criminal Tribunal for Former Yugoslavia is
illegitimate and its creation a corruption of the United Nations.
There would never have been a United Nations if its Charter
stated, or implied, that a criminal court could be created under its
authority. No one who believes in historical truth, or that words
have meaning can, after examining the history of its creation and
its text, contend that the Charter of the United Nations empowers
the Security Council to create a criminal court.
An International Criminal Court Can Be Created
Only By A Multinational Treaty, Or
Amendment To The Charter Of The United Nations
The national representatives ho have served on the Security
Council and in the General Assembly and the scholars, lawyers
and experts who have labored for more than thirty years to bring
into being an international criminal court have recognized that the
only lawful and binding way such a court can be created is by an
agreement among nations through a treaty agreed upon for that
purpose, or by amending the Charter of the United Nations under
its strict provisions regulating amendments to authorize, or
establish a court.
When an International Criminal Court was finally agreed upon in
July 1998 by 120 nations meeting in Rome, it was by treaty which
had been studied, drafted and debated for years. The United
States, the most powerful participant in that long process,
consistently sought to weaken the treaty to exempt U.S. leaders
and military personnel from prosecution before it. Having failed
the U.S. was then the most prominent and powerful of the handful
of nations that refused to sign. As of August 1, 2001 37 nations,
the Netherlands the most recent, had ratified the treaty.
The United States is vigorously trying to persuade, coerce, or
bribe nations not to ratify.
Creation Of The International Criminal Tribunal
For The Former Yugoslavia Was A Lawless Act Of
Political Expediency By The United States Designed
To Demonize And Destroy An Enemy And Frustrate
Creation Of A Legitimate International Criminal Tribunal
At the insistence of the U.S. the Security Council nearly fifty
years after it came into being forged a new and powerful weapon
capable of demonizing a nation and its people and depriving
individuals of their liberty for the rest of their lives and placed it
largely in the hands of the United States. The principal precedents
for such pseudo judicial actions over several millennia preceding
the creation of the U.N. are trials of leaders and soldiers of
vanquished populations by the victors in war, and courts used by
colonial powers to control and punish subjugated peoples. The
precedents are many and the violence and cruelty and hatred they
usually exposed and caused was extreme.
Unless It is Limited By The U.N. Charter And
International Law, The Security Council Can Do
Whatever It Chooses To Do
If it is not restrained by the United Nations Charter, the Security
Council can commit any act it desires disregarding all law. Early
proponents of United States world power claimed such unbridled
discretion for the Security Council publicly. Thus in 1950 John
Foster Dullas wrote:
"The Security Council is not a body that
merely enforces agreed law. It is a law unto
itself... No principles of law are laid down
to guide it, it can decide in accordance with
what it thinks is expedient."
If unchallenged, this concept of Security Council power means
that the most powerful international organ created by the Charter
of the United Nations "to end the scourge of war" is above all law,
domestic and international.
But absolute discretion is the very definition of lawlessness and
has been called "more destructive of freedom than any other of
man's inventions," by U.S. Supreme Court Justice William O.
Douglas. All rights of all nations, races, religions, cultures,
political parties and individuals are thereby subordinated to the
will of the Security Council, and the single superpower that too
often will dominate it. All but fifteen nations are excluded from
Security Council counsels. Each of the five permanent members
can veto its actions.
The Security Council is subject to domination by a single nation.
The representative of each member votes as instructed by the
national government that appoints him and to serve the interests
of that government, not as an international statesman serving all
peoples and the purposes for which the U.N. was created. The
Security Council is inaccessible, anonymous and less responsive
to democratic processes than any other international political
institution.
2. A ONE TIME, ONE EPISODE COURT
TARGETING ONE COUNTRY, CREATED
BY INTERNATIONAL POLITICAL POWER
TO SERVE ITS GEO-POLITICAL
INTERESTS IS INCAPABLE OF EQUALITY
AND CONDUCTIVE OF DIVISION AND
VIOLENCE
The illegitimate Criminal Tribunal for Former Yugoslavia corrupts
justice and law because it is incapable of acting equally among
nations, or within the politically targeted nation. It will increase
violence, division and the risk of war with neighboring nations and
peoples and within Yugoslavia among the segments of the society
the U.S. policy of balkanization of Former Yugoslavia has set
against each other and against the new government the U.S. has
installed for its own purposes. If the United Nations Charter had
authorized the Security Council to create criminal courts, it could
not create a court for one nation, or episode for political purposes,
to persecute selected groups, or persons and such a court is
incapable of equal justice under law. An ad hoc court violates the
most basic principles of all law. Equality is the mother of justice.
An international court established to prosecute acts in a single
nation and primarily, if not entirely, one limited group is pre
programmed to persecute incapable of equality.
If the Security Council can create a criminal court to prosecute
conduct in a single country like Yugoslavia, it can appoint a court
for any country, selecting enemies or political and economic
opportunities for targeting one at a time, while never exposing
itself, or those who comply with its wishes to such selective
prosecution. If the U.S., or any ally or client state it chose to
protect was the subject of a serious effort by the Security Council
to be honored with a criminal tribunal in its own name, the U.S.
would veto the threatened action.
A Court created only for crimes in one country is by definition
discriminatory, incapable of equal justice, a weapon against
chosen enemies, or antagonistic interests and war by other
means. If there is to be any international criminal court, it must
act equally as to all nations with none above the law. The ad hoc
tribunal for a single nation corrupts international law.
By its very nature, the ad hoc Tribunal can be created only after
the conduct the Security Council decides justifies creation of the
Court since there is no other excuse for its creation. It is in every
case ex post facto. This violates an ancient principle of law. It
also requires the Security Council, if there is to be a rational basis
for its action, to make some preliminary claim to finding of facts, a
task such a political body is not designed for, that inherently
incriminates a country, or faction by placing the imprimatur of the
Security Council of the United Nations on a political decision of
fact necessary to justify creation of the Tribunal. The very charge
of the Security Council - genocide, crimes against peace, war
crimes, or crimes against humanity demonized any person
thereafter accused.
The Selection Of A Nation For Prosecution
On Political Findings Of Genocide, War Crimes
And Crimes Against Humanity Creates
A Compulsion to Convict.
Investigators, prosecutors and administrative personnel who join
a temporary Tribunal to pursue allegations of humanities greatest
crimes against a people and leaders already demonized will feel
they have failed if there are not convictions. The very psychology
of the enterprise is persecutorial. Few judges appointed to serve
on a Tribunal created under such circumstances will feel free to
acquit any but the most marginal, or clearly mistaken, accused, or
to create an appearance of objectivity.
Powers That Create Ad Hoc International Criminal
Tribunals Divert Attention From Their Own
Offenses, Or Failures, Or Those Of Allies And
Their Political Surrogates While Continuing
To Inflect And Threaten Mass Destruction With Impunity.
The ad hoc Tribunal which targets a country is incapable of
prosecuting what may be greater crimes committed in the same
conflict, by a power, coalition ally or political agents that was and
remains a much greater source of violence and threat to peace.
Most often the power which forced the creation of the target
tribunal to further damage and demonize their enemy is shielded
from criticism by the avalanche of propaganda against the
accused supported by the appearance of United Nations neutrality
and peace making efforts.
What court will consider the criminality of aerial bombardment by
U.S. aircraft of defenseless civilians, their housing, water
systems, power plants, factories, office buildings, schools,
hospitals, which take thousands of lives directly and causes
billions of dollars of property damages in Belgrade, Nis, Novi Sad
and scores of other cities, towns and villages? What threat to
peace continues from the U.S. bombing of the Chinese Embassy?
Who will be held accountable for the devastation of Pristina by
NATO planes, or the attacks on refugee columns in Kosovo and
Metohia? Is the U.S. use of cluster bombs exploding razor sharp
metal fragments over an area as large as a soccer field in the
courtyard at the hospital in Nis no crime? Will the Security
Council act to prevent and punish the use of depleted uranium by
the U.S. which is as indiscriminate in its radiation as the air, the
water, the soil and food hain it touches and contaminates for
millions of years?
International law accepts bombing of defenseless civilian
populations by a militarily advanced technology that can destroy a
country without even setting foot on its soil because supper
power controls international prosecutions and determines
violations. The dominant element in modern military power is
mass destruction. Victors are nations with the greatest capacity
for mass destruction. This places civilian populations at maximum
peril infrastructure supporting civilian life, buildings, water, power,
transportation, communication, food production, storage and
distribution, health care, schools, churches, mosques,
synagogues, foreign embassies were the direct object of U.S.
aerial and missile attacks. Several thousands of civilians were
killed directly and many more indirectly. The U.S. claims it had
159 casualties, a third from friendly fire, none from combat.
In 1998, the U.S. directed 21 Tomahawk Cruise missiles from
international waters to destroy the El Shifa pharmaceutical plant
in Khartoum, Sudan which provided more than half the medicines
available for a people who are very poor and have been unable to
replace that supply. The U.S. continues to support insurrection in
the South of Sudan and threaten Sudan with prosecution in an ad
hoc international criminal tribunal.
NATO does not claim it prevented violence within Kosovo and
Metohia among the Serbian, ethnic Albanian and other peoples. In
fact, NATO accelerated that violence. It bombed Serbia for 79
days targeting civilians and citizens destroying billions of dollars
worth of civilian facilities, using illegal weapons including cluster
bombs, destroying the civilian Serbian TV and radio buildings. It
bombed Kosovo and Metohia heaviest of all, destroying most of
Pristina, killing thousands of Albanians, Muslims, Serbs, Romany,
Turks and others, and causing hundreds of thousands of people to
flee from Kosovo and Metohia. Damage to the Yugoslavia military
was negligible. In the summer of 2001 the U.S. continues to use
cluster bombs in northern and southern Iraq which it attacks on
most days.
And in 1999 when the U.S. and NATO countries came into
Kosovo and Metohia, as a "security force", they refused to
intervene on the ground to protect people who were endangered in
the province.
There will be no remedy or relief for Serbian victims of atrocities,
some 500.000 purged by Croatia with the approval, if not on
instructions of the U.S., forever from their homes in Krajina, the
more than 330.000 permanently purged from Kosovo and Metohia
since the cease fire in 1999, or for the thousands of Serbs,
Romany and others killed by the U.S. and NATO bombing
assaults, or by the U.S.-supported terrorist organization, the so
called KLA, before, during and after the assaults. The
Macedonians killed, injured and driven from their homes by U.S.
condoned if not instigated KLA aggressions which threaten civil
war in Macedonia and general war in the Balkans will not lead the
Security Council to create a Court to prosecute the perpetrators.
Major Powers Are Not Accountable For Their
Actions Which Cause War, Insurrection
And Violence Within Targeted Countries.
There will be no accountability by the U.S., Germany and other
nations whose acts and pressures forced the break-up of
Yugoslavia, stripping Slovenia, Croatia, Bosnia, Macedonia and
attempted stripping of parts of Serbia like Kosovo and Metohia.
The U.S. and several European nations have balkanized the region
in the most artificial and forced apartheid the Balkans, or any
other part of the world has ever known. Their acts have made
peace, stability and prosperity impossible. Economic viability of
small fragmented parts depends on foreign economic interests
intended to dominate and exploit the region. The new apartheid
leads to U.S. planned conflicts between the western Catholic
Croatians and the eastern Orthodox Serbs, creating conflict and a
wall between western and eastern Europe. More dangerous, it
sets the stage for violence, encouraging international conflicts
between Slavic peoples and Muslims to decimate and debilitate
the obstacles to the U.S. world order. Kosovo and Metohia, as a
part of Serbia, and Macedonia are current examples in a long list
of tragic and avoidable violence between Muslims and Slavs,
which has occurred to different extents in Afghanistan, Dagestan,
Chechnya, Kazakhstan, Kyrgystan, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan,
Uzbekistan and Bosnia.
A Federal Republic Of Balkan States Long
Set Against Each Other By Foreign Powers
Was Formed To Established Peace, Cooperation
And Prosperity.
The idea of Yugoslavia, a Balkan federation to heal divisions and
provide a better chance for living together in peace and prosperity,
was seen as important in the years after World War I as a means
to peace. While the idea floundered between the two worst wars
in history, it worked with remarkable success after World War II
in which it was ravaged, but unconquered. An independent and
unified Federal Republic of Yugoslavia was a long term
successful solution for south Slavic peoples. It was a bulwark of
the Non Aligned Movement. With the collapse of the Soviet and
Eastern bloc economy it was the remaining socialist government
threatening capitalist control of Europe. With its mixed market
economy it offered an example to former Eastern bloc countries
for revival of their economic and political independence. With a
successful, functioning Federal Republic of Yugoslavia there was
living proof history had not ended, that more than one economic
system was possible.
After the collapse of the Eastern bloc economy a greater Balkan
federation a south eastern European Union was seen by many in
the region as the means to prevent economic exploitation, avoid
violence and develop a strong and independent political, social and
economic region.
Foreign capital and the geopolitical interests of the U.S.
considered this a dangerous obstacle to their plans for the new
world order, globalization, new colonialism.
The United States Having Demonized
Yugoslavia Attacks It With Impunity
And Persecutes Its Leadership.
The U.S. mercilessly bombed Yugoslavia for 79 day. It tried to
assassinate me by bombing my home, offices and other places,
where it believed I might be. It attempted to kill Libya's head of
State Muammar Qaddafi in its 1986 raid on Tripoli and Iraqi
president Saddam Hussein on numerous occasions beginning in
1991, including its 1993 cruise missile attack on the Al Rashid in
Baghdad at a time it believed he would be there meeting
international Islamic leaders.
Through economic sanctions, the most extreme and overt form of
forced impoverishment and economic assault, the U.S. has
coerced the Security Council into complicity in the longest
deadliest and cruelest genocide of the last decade, the sanctions
against its enemy Iraq which have killed at least 2 million people,
the majority children. The United States has forced economic
sanctions against Yugoslavia, severely damaging its civilian
economy and eroding its will to independence.
Can a criminal tribunal for Yugoslavia which ignores pervasive
violence by the U.S. and diverts public awareness from United
States conduct and legitimatizes by silent acceptance aerial and
missile assaults on civilians and illegal weapons use against one
country after another, making its repetition expected before it
occurs, contribute to the hope for the rule of law, justice or peace?
The United States, itself, immune from control, or prosecution and
above the law, uses its power to cause the persecution of
enemies it selects to terrorize and further demonize. It
manufactures and sells arms to chosen nations, to groups seeking
to overthrow governments it opposes, uses illegal weapons
against defenseless people with impunity, continues to
consolidate and expand its near monopoly of nuclear weapons and
sophisticated rocketry, spends trillion on unilateral protection
from Star Wars assuring a continued arms race while poverty
overwhelms billions, hunger cripples millions, starvation takes
hundreds of thousands of lives and AIDS spreads among poor
nations.
It cripples international environmental protection, undermines
control of nuclear weapons by threatening to withdraw from long
standing protections of the ABM and Non Proliferation treaties. It
refuses to ratify treaties to protect life from land mines which it
continues to manufacture, sell and deploy. It threatens to
undermine a treaty controlling biological and chemical warfare.
And the United States regularly engages in covert operations and
violent military interventions in other nations in violation of their
sovereignty and law.
The so called ICTY is not just another arrow in the arsenal of the
United States with which it persecutes and demonizes enemies
and corrupts international law. The ICTY celebrates inequality in
the rule of law using criminal sanctions to destroy selected
leaders and governments.
It is poisonous arrow destructive of the foundations of peace
among independent nations of equal rights and dignity.
3. THE INTERNATIONAL CRIMINAL
TRIBUNAL FOR FORMER YUGOSLAVIA IS
INCAPABLE OF PROTECTING
FUNDAMENTAL RIGHTS, OR PROVIDING
DUE PROCESS OF LAW.
Such an ad hoc Tribunal has a temporary and limited purpose
without helpful precedent, common tradition or relevant
experience. It lacks power to enforce orders, or compel the
disclosure of evidence and presence of witnesses, particularly for
the defense.
It is not capable of finding facts fairly, or defining and applying
legal principles equally. It cannot do justice.
The statutory mandate for the ICTY makes it hostile to concern
for the rights of those accused before it, because it is told the
crimes charged have occurred and the accused have been
demonized.
The right to assistance of counsel, so firmly established in
international law, has been denied and frustrated by the Tribunal
even in its most prominent cases. The Registry denied to me the
right to consult with lawyers of my choice on legal matters for
several weeks after my arraignment.
The Registrar wrote that for the one attorney who visited me
during that time and for only two hours, it would have been
''inappropriate'' to discuss the case because the conversation
was monitored and confidences would be violated. Lawyers from
Yugoslavia I ask to consult, with one exception, a monitored two
hours visit, were still denied approval and visas to enter the
Netherlands seven weeks after my arraignment.
Instead I was held in solitary confinement. I was able to visit my
wife only after more than two weeks imprisonment and then only
through sound proof glass using monitored telephones. She was
prohibited from speaking with the press and kept isolated from all
public contacts while in the Netherlands, a virtual prisoner in her
hotel room, except as she traveled between the airport, the prison
and the hotel.
The Ad Hoc Tribunal Is Intended To Demonize
And Destroy, Not To Fairly Determine Facts,
Protect Rights Of The Accessed, And Apply
Legal Principles Equally.
Unfair phenomena is inherent in the purpose and the nature of
temporary ad hoc tribunal, struggling without personnel who are
part of a legal tradition, far removed from the place the accused
came from and the events occurred where the court is charged by
its creator not to presume innocence, but that terrible crimes have
occurred and the accused are from the group that committed them.
They do this to protect thr real criminals, the NATO leaders who
killed thousands of innocent people in NATO's criminal
aggression.

They do this to protect thr real criminals, the NATO leaders who
killed thousands of innocent people in NATO's criminal
aggression.
Truth Is Beyond The Reach And The Purpose Of
The Ad Hoc Tribunal Which Is Intended To
Punish, Destroy And Divide.
It has been impossible in all cases before powerless ad hoc
Tribunals for the accused to obtain needed evidence and
witnesses for their defense. The ICTY has been unable to obtain
custody of many accused in the former Yugoslavia and has
resorted to, or condoned, improper and illegal means to pressure
their surrender.
Ad Hoc Tribunal Terrorize And Punish Those In Yugoslavia
Who Dared To
Oppose NATO Aggression And To React To Criminal Acts Of
Terrorists Who Were
Killing Serbs, Albanians, Muslims, Turks etc.
In Yugoslavia, the U.S. in violation of international and domestic
laws of both Yugoslavia and the U.S., has installed a government
of its choice in the Republic of Serbia and ousted President
Milosevic for the presidency of the Federal Republic of
Yugoslavia by bombing, economic coercion including sanctions,
physical threats, covert operations and corruption of the electoral
process.
The U.S. Creates Client Governments By
Forcing Elections, Using Millions Of Dollars
to Purchase Unity For Its Candidate , Then
Finance A Campaign That Buys Votes And
Corrupts Democracy.
The U.S. injected more than $ 100.000.000 (US) to defeat the
Government of Peoples Unity that was in power until October,
2000.
The U.S. has intervened in many foreign elections and often
installed governments subservient to its interests by that means.
The creation of an ad hoc international criminal tribunal with
threats and indictments of the leadership of the government it
seeks to remove is an additional devastating assault on the
democratic process and the government targeted for destruction.
My Abduction and Surrender To The
ICTY By A U.S. Installed Serbian Government
Was Done In Violation Of The Constitutions Of The
Federal Republic Of Yugoslavia, The Republic
Of Serbia, The Statute Creating The ICTY
While The Federal Constitutional Court Of
Yugoslavia Reviewed The Request For Surrender
For A Bribe Of, Supposedly, 1.3 Billion Dollars.
The U.S.-installed government of Serbia abducted and
surrendered me in violation of the Constitutions of the Federal
Republic of Yugoslavia and the Republic of Serbia and its Laws
while the request for surrender was under review by the
Constitutional Court of Yugoslavia, which had forbiden any act
related to surrender until the Court's final decision. That was also
a violation of the U.N. Security Council Resolution creating the
Tribunal which provides that surrender shall be accomplished in
accordance with the domestic laws of the nation requested to
make the surrender. The United States threatened to block $1.3
billion (U.S.) in international loans and aid for Yugoslavia unless
the surrender was accomplished by a date it set. Such conduct
and the participation and acceptance of it reveals contempt for the
rule of law by the Tribunal, the new government of Serbia, or the
United Nations.
The illegal seizure of an individual and his delivery to isolation in
the prison of an illegal international criminal tribunal in a distant
nation threatens the freedom of everyone. For the United Nations
to engage in, or accept, international kidnapping of political
leaders tells that world the old ways of violence, deceit and
coercion are its ways. Those ways will be met in the only way
they can be met, by the same means.
The New U.S. Installed Government Of Serbia
Is Using Its Police Power To Crush Political
Opposition In Serbia.
The current government of Serbia is engaged in crushing and
demonizing its domestic political opposition. The regime will
surrender accused persons to the ICTY in violation of its own
laws as it surrendered me in order to destroy political opposition
at home and receive payments of money and support from abroad
for the ruling politicians. It acts to frustrate any support or
investigation for my defense, even attempting to ban entry and
deport Ramsey Clark when he flew to Belgrade in June to discuss
my political persecution. In the hope of eliminating rival domestic
political power, it put hundreds of people in detention on purely
political grunds.
That government may fabricate evidence, destroy evidence and
control and coerce witnesses to assist in convictions by the
ICTY, and it will seek to frustrate defense efforts to obtain
documents, other evidence, and witnesses in Yugoslavia needed
for the defense in the Hague.
The People Of Serbia And Yugoslavia Risk A
Tragic Future From The External Manipulation
And Control Of Their Governments.
The new government of Serbia is a puppet for the United States. If
there is any expectation a U.S. supported government might be
better for the people of Serbia, or Yugoslavia, ask Iranians if they
believe they fared better under the Shah of Iran, enthroned in 1953
by the U.S. for 25 years, than they would have under
democratically elected President Mossadegh and elected
successors. Was a long line of military governments which
brutally repressed the people of Guatemala for decades better for
the people than democratically elected President Arbenz who was
removed by United States forces in 1954. Was Mobutu, who for
four decades brutalized, bankrupted and corrupted the country,
better for the people than democratically elected Patrice
Lumumba assassinated with U.S. complicity in 1960? Did General
Pinochet better serve democracy, human rights and the welfare of
the people for decades than the democratically elected Salvador
Allende murdered in a U.S. supported golpe in Chile in 1973? It
would be difficult to find four greater national tragedies in the last
fifty years, all brought about by the United States determination to
control those regions.
Ask the people of the several score other countries who have
lived under U.S. supported tyrannies, "our SOB's" as FDR called
Somoza in Nicaragua, how they benefited. An ad hoc criminal
tribunal created to crush the leadership of the opposition to a U.S.
installed government cannot bring peace, reconciliation, protect
human rights, or enable a people to live and prosper together. It
will create fear, hatred, division and violence.
Consider the peoples of the poorest countries of the world during
these last decades obediently struggling to repay loans for
projects and purposes they did not choose and that never
benefited them while their own citizens die from hunger and
preventable illnesses. Consider the economies of eastern Europe,
or of the former Yugoslav republics and ask why per capita
income is often less than half, sometimes less than 25% what it
was just twelve years ago. Ad hoc criminal tribunals will prolong
the suffering in poor countries by supporting governments that will
maintain foreign domination that seeks benefits that will worsen
that condition.
The Violence And Division Within Yugoslavia
Since The Collapse Of The Soviet Economy Was
Caused By U.S. Lead Acts Designed To Balkanize
The Federal Republic And Its Member
Republics With The ICTY As Principal Weapon.
The United States engaged in a decade long effort aided by
several European countries, to break-up and destroy the Federal
Republic of Yugoslavia, causing the secession, (remember the
American Civil War) of German oriented Slovenia and Croatia
with 500 000 Serbs purged from its borders. Then Bosnia was
pried away from the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia and
segregated into an unnatural three region religious apartheid,
Muslim, Roman Catholic and Eastern Orthodox Christian. Now
Macedonia is in turmoil, nearing civil war from U.S. stimulated
and supported terrorist organization KLA aggression. Thus
Yugoslavia became former, losing half of its population and
wealth and leaving only Serbia and Montenegro. Kosovo and
Metohia, an historically precious part of Serbia remains occupied
by NATO Forces after 79 days of aerial bombardment in 1999.
U.S. lead aerial assaults inflicted billions in damages on civilian
facilities, killed thousands of civilians throughout Serbia in the
name of NATO. Thereafter the United States and NATO watched
as 330 000 Serbs were forced out of Kosovo and Metohia and
many hundreds murdered, emboldened by the United States.
Violent efforts to remove all Serbs from Kosovo and Metohia
continue. And the KLA has been empowered to attack
Macedonia.
The ICTY was created at the insistence of the United States
which had stimulated violence and secession in republics of
Slovenia, Croatia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Macedonia and
attempted division and conflict in the Serbian province of Kosovo
and Metohia and in three municipalities in the south of Serbia and
throughout the former six Republics. The U.S. intends to
persecute and demonize leaders who together with the people by
defending freedom and by resisting aggression of NATO war
machinery, had defied its will, and at the same time make the
people seem savage. Madeleine Albright, while U.S. Ambassador
to the U.N., was the driving force for creation of the ICTY. The
U.S. Ambassador to the Tribunal, David Scheffer, concedes the
ICTY is ''supported, financed, staffed and provided information''
primarily by the United States.
Now as the idea and existence of ad hoc tribunals are threatened
by the treaty creating the International Criminal Court the United
States is exerting pressure to prevent nations from ratifying it. It
is also pressing for new ad hoc Tribunals for the Democratic
Republic of Congo, Sierra Leone, Sudan and elsewhere, to
dominate those regions and defuse the drive for the International
Criminal Court. The treaty, signed in Rome in 1998 by 120 nations
was ratified by the 37th nation, the Netherlands, in late July 2001.
The United States prefers to select nations for persecution while
protecting itself, its allies and favored client states. Ad hoc
tribunals which are illegitimate, incapable of equal justice under
law, by their nature unable to conduct fair trials, or provide due
process and whose victims have long since been convicted in the
United States controlled media are a U.S. weapon for establishing
long term control and exploitation of targeted nations and regions.
That is their globalization, that is new colonialism.
For these reasons, the so called ICTY should be declared illegal
and its prisoners, legally and illegally surrendered, should be
released.

[Emperor's Clothes]
======================================Former Croatian minister confirms CIA's involvement
in 1995 military operation
SOURCE: HRT1 TV, Zagreb, in Serbo-Croat 1730 gmt 20 Aug 01
[Translated from Croatian TV on 20 August, 2001, Monday]
======================================
Announcer: Today's issue of the US
weekly 'Newsweek' carries a report
containing information that has been
surmised for years, but has never been
officially confirmed. According to Newsweek's
article headlined "What Did
the CIA Know" the US intelligence service
closely cooperated with Croatia,
particularly in the preparation and
during Operation Storm:
Reporter: The article says that in
the mid-1990s the Americans helped the
Croats by sending them images of the
Serb forces' movements and weapons
emplacements photographed by drones.
The images were transmitted to an HQ
near Zadar from where they were then
forwarded to the Pentagon. According
to top Croatian intelligence officials,
copies were also sent to the
headquarters of Ante Gotovina the
Croatian general in command of Operation
Storm. Miroslav Tudjman, the then
head of the Croatian Intelligence
Service, says in the article that
the Croatian and American intelligence
services had a de facto partnership. The
then Minister of Foreign Affairs
Mate Granic also knows about this cooperation:
Mate Granic: Of course I know, they
cooperated well, these aircraft were
also used. During the Kosovo operation
Croatia also cooperated successfully
as a partner of NATO and the USA.
Reporter: The article further says
that the US officials have confirmed
that the CIA had limited sharing of
intelligence information with Croatia,
but also insist American operatives
did nothing that contributed to war
crimes, nor did they know anything
about planning for criminal activity.
These facts can be used for defence
in the Gotovina case, the article
further says. His defence counsel
Luka Misetic says that there were many
sets of eyes watching Operation Storm.
No one there in the CIA saw there
was a problem with war crimes. A former
senior administration official says
the White House had the usual scatter
of information about individual
incidents, but no evidence that the
Croats were going out of their way to
terrorize the Serb population.
Another issue is how to pressure the
USA into opening their archives and
forwarding documents to the Hague tribunal:
Mate Granic: The US is reluctant to
give any of its intelligence reports -
that has been our experience so far.
As for whether it will give any
documents now, it is up to the Hague
tribunal and the USA.
Reporter: Gotovina's lawyer announced
he would ask for this by subpoena.
Roy Gutman concludes by saying that
the US cannot wash its hands of it now,
having been collecting evidence all the
time and finally saying: We were
not there.

Comunicato del Partito Socialista della Serbia
sull'assassinio di Abu Ali Mustafa
Il Comitato Centrale
Belgrado, 29 agosto 2001
Il Partito Socialista della Serbia (SPS) ha appreso con amarezza
dell'assassinio di Abu Ali Mustafa, uno dei principali leader dell'amico
popolo palestinese, segretario generale del Fronte Democratico per
la Liberazione della Palestina.
Nell'esprime il cordoglio ai familiari, ai compagni combattenti e di
partito, ed a tutto il popolo palestinese, ribadiamo in questa occasione
anche la nostra piena solidarieta' con la giusta lotta del popolo
arabo palestinese contro la repressione e per la realizzazione dei
suoi legittimi diritti e dei suoi obiettivi nazionali.
Le forze che stanno dietro questo crimine sono le stesse che, con il
terrorismo ed il crimine organizzato internazionale, per molti decenni
hanno agito in maniera distruttiva ed impunita nel Medio Oriente e
nel Mediterraneo orientale, e per un decennio nei Balcani ed in Asia
centrale, allo scopo di trasformare queste regioni in campi di battaglia
di conflitti etnici e religiosi, nell'interesse della loro espansione
militare, economica e finanziaria, a detrimento dei popoli che vivono
nel nostro angolo del pianeta, senza esitare nemmeno di usare
apertamente l'aggressione e l'occupazione militare.
Il Partito Socialista della Serbia, guidato dal presidente Slobodan
Milosevic, continuera' a guidare la resistenza dei popoli della
Jugoslavia contro la minaccia della colonizzazione e, insieme alle
forze progressiste, democratiche e di liberazione di tutto il mondo,
si impegnera' per la creazione di relazioni internazionali basate
sulla pace, sul rispetto della sovranita' dei popoli e sulla equa
cooperazione. E' vicina la sconfitta definitiva di quelli che cercano
di imporre la loro egemonia globale usando i missili, le bombe e
le sentenze contro chi lotta per la liberta'.

The Socialist Party of Serbia
Head Committee
Belgrade, August 29, 2001
Communiqu�
The Socialist Party of Serbia learned with embitterment about
the assassination of one of the most prominent leaders of the
friendly Palestinian people, Abu Ali Mustafa, general secretary
of the Democratic Front for the Liberation of Palestine.
Expressing condolences to his family, fellow fighters, party
comrades and the whole Palestine people, we reiterate on this
occasion as well our full solidarity with the just struggle of the
Arab Palestinian people against repression and for the
realization of its legitimate rights and national goals.
The forces standing behind this crime are the same ones who,
braced with terrorism and organized international crime, for
several decades act destructively and unpunished in the Middle
East and the Eastern Mediterranean, over a decade in the
Balkans and in Central Asia, in order to transform this regions
into battlefields of ethnic and religious conflicts in interest of
their own military, economic and financial expansion, to the
detriment of the peoples living in our part of the World without
even hesitating open military aggression and occupation.
The Socialist Party of Serbia, headed by President Slobodan
Milosevic, will further on lead the resistance of the peoples of
Yugoslavia to the threat of colonization and, together with the
progressive, democratic and liberation forces throughout the
World, strive for the establishment of international relations
based on peace, respect of the sovereignty of peoples and
equitable cooperation. The definitive defeat of those ones trying
to impose their global hegemony with rockets, bombs and
sentences to freedom fighters - is near.

======================================Why is NATO Decimating the Balkans and
Trying to Force Milosevic to Surrender?
By Jared Israel and Nico Varkevisser
[29 August 2001]
======================================
Recently the International Committee
to Defend Slobodan Milosevic (ICDSM)
received an email from some people in
St. Petersburg. They were organizing a
protest against globalization and The
Hague (un)Tribunal, and in support of
President Milosevic.
Many people in the West don't realize
that there is passionate support for
Milosevic across the political
spectrum in the former Soviet Union.
For example, the Russian Committee to
Defend Slobodan Milosevic is led by
Alexander Zinoviev, the distinguished
author and former Soviet dissident. At
the same time, the Committee is
strongly supported by the communists.
Virtually all Russian citizens demand
Milosevic be freed. They understand
that in NATO's attempt to destroy
Yugoslavia, Macedonia, and then Bulgaria
and Greece, the ultimate target is the
former Soviet Union.
NATO needs to crush Milosevic, and to
tarnish the legend of Milosevic,
because he stands for resistance to
NATO, to neo-colonialism, to Washington's
Imperial rule - to the new slavery
brought to us thanks to this latest
would-be Rome.
The following article is based on a
letter of greeting we sent the
demonstrators in St. Petersburg. * *
Why is NATO Decimating the Balkans and
Trying to Force Milosevic to
Surrender?
By Jared Israel and Nico Varkevisser
During the past 14 years, Yugoslav
loyalists and their leaders, especially
the Serbian people and President
Milosevic and his associates, have achieved
the same thing the Serbs achieved in 1941.
It was in March of that year that the
Serbs overthrew their pro-German
government. In a rage, Hitler ordered
the conquest of Yugoslavia. His troops
got bogged down in the attempt. This
delayed Operation Barbarossa, the
invasion of the Soviet Union. Because
of the Serbs, the Nazi supermen were
trapped in the fierce Russian winter.
In 1987, the forces around Milosevic
defeated pro-NATO elements in the
Serbian government, thus declaring
their independence from Washington.
>From that time on, Milosevic and the
Serbian and other Yugoslav loyalists
have provided a roadblock obstructing
NATO's Drive to the East and a beacon
to the former Soviets, to resist.
****************
A 56 Year-Old Strategy
****************
The attack on Yugoslavia and the
kidnapping of Milosevic are not random
events. They constitute a new phase of
the "anti-Eastern" strategy, which
Washington has pursued for more than
five decades.
That strategy had two parts: Part one
was the break up of the Soviet Union,
achieved in 1991.
Part Two is the reduction of the
Republics of the former Soviet Union
(SU) from nations to devastated
territories, small protectorates under
the domination of the U.S. and its junior
partners.
Washington has openly pursued this
strategy since the end of World War
II, when it created the CIA, in large
measure from General Gehlen's network
of Nazi operatives, agents and contacts
in Western, Eastern and Southern
Europe.
Part One of the strategy went into
high gear in 1979. At that time it was
articulated by Jimmy Carter's National
Security Adviser, Zbigniew Brzezinski.
It was the reason for the U.S. proxy
war against Afghanistan, during which
Washington and its allies created and
nurtured the phenomenon of Islamist
terrorism, which now plagues the
former SU, the Balkans, Algeria, and
the rest of the planet.
In the West, it is considered
politically correct to ascribe the
breakup of the Soviet Union to an inevitable
'revolution' brought about by internal
decay.
Yet it is well known that most Soviet
citizens (perhaps 70%) opposed the
break-up of the Union. How can a
'revolution' that is opposed by most
people be inevitable?
Alexander Zinoviev was a leading
Soviet dissident. Here's what he says:
"The fall of communism has been
transformed into the fall of Russia.
The Russian catastrophe was deliberately
planned in the West. I say this because
I was once involved in these plans
which, under the pretext of fighting
an ideology, in fact prepared the death
of Russia.
"Contrary to a widely held view,
communism did not collapse for internal
reasons. Its collapse is the greatest
possible victory of the West. This
colossal victory has created a
planetary power. The end of communism
is also the end of democracy: our era is not
only post-communist, it is also
post-democratic ... This is because
democracy means pluralism: that
requires the existence of at least two more or
less equal powers During the Cold War
there was democracy at world level, a
global pluralism within which
capitalism and communism coexisted.
Now we live in a world dominated by a
single force, by a single ideology and
by a single globalist party The
Western countries are dominant but
they are also dominated, because they
are progressively losing their sovereignty
to what I call "supra-society". This
planetary supra-society consists of
commercial enterprises and non-commercial
organisms whose zones of influence are
superior to those of nations. The
Western countries are subjected, like
other countries, to the control of
these supranational structures. But
the sovereignty of nations was a
constituent part of pluralism and
democracy at world level. The present
dominating power is crushing sovereign
states. The process of European
integration which is taking place
under our eyes is causing the
disappearance of pluralism within this new
conglomerate, to the benefit of a new
supranational power." ('Figaro', 24th
July 1999)
Washington and Western Europe (NATO)
contrived to exhaust the Soviets
economically (e.g., the Afghan war and
the arms race) bribed and otherwise
seduced many of its officials,
demeaned its ideology, and used other
means to bring about the Soviets' so-called
internal collapse.
In the 1980s, knowing that the
destruction of the Soviet Union was
near, the U.S. mobilized Germany and England and
launched the attack on Yugoslavia,
which went into high gear with the
externally-engineered secession of
Slovenia and Croatia in 1991,
precisely when the Soviet Union was
being destroyed.
Washington launched this attack
because crushing Yugoslavia, and especially
the passionately independent Serbs, is
the key to pacifying the Balkans. And
the Balkans is the strategic southern
flank of the former Soviet Union.
***********************
Washington Goes for World Conquest
***********************
There were plenty of problems with the
former Soviet Union, but these are
grossly distorted by politicians and
propagandists in the West. For example,
a year ago, in an article called
"Living with Russia," Zbigniew
Brzezinski, a strategist of U.S. Imperial rule,
explained the existence of grave
poverty in Russia as follows:
"The painful reality is that the
communist experiment has bequeathed to
the Russian people a ruined agriculture, a
retarded and in many places primitive
social infrastructure, a backward
economy increasingly facing the risk
of progressive de-industrialization, a
devastated environment, and a
demographically threatened population."
We have seen the same argument made
regarding Bulgaria and indeed all the
former socialist countries. It amounts
to heaping insult on injury. Since the
'fall' of communism, draconian
policies, dictated by Washington through the
International Monetary Fund, have
methodically laid waste to the economies
and social service-structures of these
countries.
In the Soviet Union, apartments,
childcare (available 24-hours a day),
medical and dental care, public
transportation and vacations were either free
or subsidized so working people could
afford them. Higher education was not
just free; students were paid stipends
if they maintained good grades. (This,
one might note in passing, was a
policy calculated to induce working
class students to go to college and study.
In much of the capitalist world today,
measures are in effect which produce
the opposite effect.)
The finest cultural achievements, such
as the great Bolshoi Ballet, were
enjoyed by ordinary people. For
example, in the case of the Bolshoi,
admission was a pittance and
transportation was organized so that
working people could attend.
In Soviet society, differences in
wealth existed but they were nothing
like those that exist in the West or that
have come to exist in the former
socialist countries.
***********************
Imperial Hypocrisy
***********************
It is under Western guidance that the
Soviet Union's great social protections
have been destroyed during the past
decade. And now Mr. Brzezinski, one of
the architects of that destruction,
has the audacity to blame it on the
system he helped eliminate and
preaches the moral superiority of the
system he and his ilk have put in its place,
in which some live like kings while
most others suffer without basic
necessities, and the kings preach
morality.
(Perhaps the greatest failing of the
Soviet Union was its non-democratic
character - non-democratic in the
profound sense of not relying on the
political thinking and action of
ordinary people. Instead a highly
centralized bureaucracy was the source
of all political motion. Imperial
strategists like Mr. Brzezinski
recognized this flaw, saw that if they
could penetrate and corrupt this structure
they could bring down the Soviet Union
before the people could be mobilized
to resist. Which is basically what
happened.)
The Soviet Union had a policy of
supporting anti-colonial struggle.
After World War II, partly inspired by the
resistance of the Soviet bloc, colonial
and semi-colonial states from Eastern
Europe to China gained much freedom
from Western domination. But now that
the Soviet Union has been broken up,
and with it the restraining force of
Soviet power, Washington and its
European allies are trying to force
most of the world's people, that is
those living outside North America and
Western Europe, into neocolonial
status, that is, into desperate poverty.
*****************
The Model is Kosovo
*****************
In the Balkans we see Washington's
policy at its harshest. In a recent speech
delivered to soldiers at the giant
U.S. military base in Kosovo (called, with
pompous arrogance, "Bondsteel") George
Bush Jr. described Kosovo as the U.S.
model for progress in the Balkans.
This progress has meant rule by the
gangster-fascists of the KLA; it has
meant that politically unreliable
people - ethnic Serbs, "Gypsies," Slavic
Muslims and anti-fascist Albanians -
are demonized in the media even as they
are driven from the province, while
those who dare to remain in Kosovo live
in constant terror, their homes
reduced to prisons. This is all documented.
What Washington has done to the
Serbian province of Kosovo it is now trying
to do to Macedonia and the rest of
Serbia. If Washington is successful in
Kosovo-izing Serbia, Macedonia and
other Balkans states, it will have created
the stable southern flank it needs to
escalate the "low intensity wars"
(Washington's term) that it is already
fighting on many fronts against the
former Soviet Union.
Yugoslavia shows what Washington hopes
to accomplish in the former Soviet
Union, writ small.
First Yugoslavia was broken up, as the
former SU had been broken up. In the
process, Washington re-created
precisely the same fascist power blocs
that the Nazi's relied on during World War
II, especially clerical-fascists in
Croatia and fanatical Islamists in
Bosnia.
Now NATO is using quisling governments
installed in Belgrade and Skopje, and
fascist-secessionists, mobilized
behind the slogan 'Greater Albania,' which
Washington has encouraged for over a
decade, to pulverize the remains, to
neutralize the powerful Yugoslav Army,
and to physically devastate those
populations in Serbia, Macedonia and
elsewhere which have historically
resisted Imperial domination and whose
hearts are drawn to the East.
If Washington succeeds in "pacifying"
the Balkans in this fashion, it will
try to duplicate the process
throughout the former Soviet Union: reducing
populations inclined to resist U.S.
rule to terrorized slaves ruled by local
fascists (conveniently labeled victims
of oppression by the pro-NATO media)
and all of it dominated by the U.S.
and its allies, especially Germany and
England.
*****************************
Components of the anti-Russian
onslaught are partly in place
*****************************
The critical focus of Washington's
attempt to recolonize the world lies
in the Balkans.
If the new Empire consolidated its
power in the Balkans, the former Soviet
Union's southern flank, the attack on
Russia would increase a hundred- fold.
There would be direct NATO
intervention from the south and from
bases in the Baltic states, from certain former
Warsaw pact countries, and increased
attack from a few NATO-controlled
former Soviet Republics.
This would be justified by an all-out
Western media campaign, posing imperial
conquest as an attempt to curb
humanitarian abuses. At the same time,
Washington would escalate various
internal attacks, employing:
* Fifth Column forces already in
place, organized by George Soros' boys and
by U.S. and European agencies (e.g.;,
the National Endowment for Democracy)
throughout the former Soviet Union;
* Western-inspired attacks by fascist
Islamists (it is notable that some of
the Chechnya terrorists are now
fighting as Albanian rebels in
Macedonia);
* Traitorous betrayals by officials
corrupted through the military and
economic penetration of the former
Soviet Union by Washington and its
allies.
What would the "Kosovo-izing" of the
former Soviet Union mean for the world?
First, Washington and its allies could
engage in the most extreme plunder of
the vast resources of the former
Soviet Union. And second, its position
consolidated in the former SU,
Washington could proceed full force
against the great Asian nation-states, trying
to break up China and India into
numerous small protectorates.
This would be Washington's dream.
Does this policy serve the interests
of ordinary people in North America
and Western Europe? Quite the contrary.
Unchecked, it poses the gravest risk
of worldwide nuclear war.
The resistance by Milosevic and the
Serbian people to NATO's expansion
into the Balkans, their attempt to awaken
the great Russian bear, which was
stunned by the breakup of the Soviet
Union, is of the greatest importance
to humanity, East and West.
By refusing to cooperate with NATO's
Hague unTribunal, President Milosevic
has, in one brave stroke, sent an
electrifying call for resistance
throughout the world. As a refugee from NATO's
attack on Afghanistan wrote:
"I just saw Milosevic [on TV]. He told
this criminal Western kangaroo court
that he doesn't recognize them. So I
wish there was a lot more of those
guys, like Milosevic."
The gentleman is correct. We do need
tens of thousands of those people like
Milosevic. That is why the unTribunal
is doing everything it can to force
Milosevic to drop his defiance and
cooperate with their inquisition.
If the Russians and other people of
the former Soviet Union can regroup,
achieve unity and create popular
movements with a Milosevic-type policy
of national unity based on social justice
- a policy that defends the nation by
mobilizing the overwhelming majority
of people for social justice - if the
Russian and other Soviet people can do
this, they will not only be protecting
themselves, they will once again be
protecting the world, including the
people of the U.S.

======================================Why is NATO Decimating the Balkans and
Trying to Force Milosevic to Surrender?
By Jared Israel and Nico Varkevisser
[29 August 2001]
======================================
Recently the International Committee
to Defend Slobodan Milosevic (ICDSM)
received an email from some people in
St. Petersburg. They were organizing a
protest against globalization and The
Hague (un)Tribunal, and in support of
President Milosevic.
Many people in the West don't realize
that there is passionate support for
Milosevic across the political
spectrum in the former Soviet Union.
For example, the Russian Committee to
Defend Slobodan Milosevic is led by
Alexander Zinoviev, the distinguished
author and former Soviet dissident. At
the same time, the Committee is
strongly supported by the communists.
Virtually all Russian citizens demand
Milosevic be freed. They understand
that in NATO's attempt to destroy
Yugoslavia, Macedonia, and then Bulgaria
and Greece, the ultimate target is the
former Soviet Union.
NATO needs to crush Milosevic, and to
tarnish the legend of Milosevic,
because he stands for resistance to
NATO, to neo-colonialism, to Washington's
Imperial rule - to the new slavery
brought to us thanks to this latest
would-be Rome.
The following article is based on a
letter of greeting we sent the
demonstrators in St. Petersburg. * *
Why is NATO Decimating the Balkans and
Trying to Force Milosevic to
Surrender?
By Jared Israel and Nico Varkevisser
During the past 14 years, Yugoslav
loyalists and their leaders, especially
the Serbian people and President
Milosevic and his associates, have achieved
the same thing the Serbs achieved in 1941.
It was in March of that year that the
Serbs overthrew their pro-German
government. In a rage, Hitler ordered
the conquest of Yugoslavia. His troops
got bogged down in the attempt. This
delayed Operation Barbarossa, the
invasion of the Soviet Union. Because
of the Serbs, the Nazi supermen were
trapped in the fierce Russian winter.
In 1987, the forces around Milosevic
defeated pro-NATO elements in the
Serbian government, thus declaring
their independence from Washington.
>From that time on, Milosevic and the
Serbian and other Yugoslav loyalists
have provided a roadblock obstructing
NATO's Drive to the East and a beacon
to the former Soviets, to resist.
****************
A 56 Year-Old Strategy
****************
The attack on Yugoslavia and the
kidnapping of Milosevic are not random
events. They constitute a new phase of
the "anti-Eastern" strategy, which
Washington has pursued for more than
five decades.
That strategy had two parts: Part one
was the break up of the Soviet Union,
achieved in 1991.
Part Two is the reduction of the
Republics of the former Soviet Union
(SU) from nations to devastated
territories, small protectorates under
the domination of the U.S. and its junior
partners.
Washington has openly pursued this
strategy since the end of World War
II, when it created the CIA, in large
measure from General Gehlen's network
of Nazi operatives, agents and contacts
in Western, Eastern and Southern
Europe.
Part One of the strategy went into
high gear in 1979. At that time it was
articulated by Jimmy Carter's National
Security Adviser, Zbigniew Brzezinski.
It was the reason for the U.S. proxy
war against Afghanistan, during which
Washington and its allies created and
nurtured the phenomenon of Islamist
terrorism, which now plagues the
former SU, the Balkans, Algeria, and
the rest of the planet.
In the West, it is considered
politically correct to ascribe the
breakup of the Soviet Union to an inevitable
'revolution' brought about by internal
decay.
Yet it is well known that most Soviet
citizens (perhaps 70%) opposed the
break-up of the Union. How can a
'revolution' that is opposed by most
people be inevitable?
Alexander Zinoviev was a leading
Soviet dissident. Here's what he says:
"The fall of communism has been
transformed into the fall of Russia.
The Russian catastrophe was deliberately
planned in the West. I say this because
I was once involved in these plans
which, under the pretext of fighting
an ideology, in fact prepared the death
of Russia.
"Contrary to a widely held view,
communism did not collapse for internal
reasons. Its collapse is the greatest
possible victory of the West. This
colossal victory has created a
planetary power. The end of communism
is also the end of democracy: our era is not
only post-communist, it is also
post-democratic ... This is because
democracy means pluralism: that
requires the existence of at least two more or
less equal powers During the Cold War
there was democracy at world level, a
global pluralism within which
capitalism and communism coexisted.
Now we live in a world dominated by a
single force, by a single ideology and
by a single globalist party The
Western countries are dominant but
they are also dominated, because they
are progressively losing their sovereignty
to what I call "supra-society". This
planetary supra-society consists of
commercial enterprises and non-commercial
organisms whose zones of influence are
superior to those of nations. The
Western countries are subjected, like
other countries, to the control of
these supranational structures. But
the sovereignty of nations was a
constituent part of pluralism and
democracy at world level. The present
dominating power is crushing sovereign
states. The process of European
integration which is taking place
under our eyes is causing the
disappearance of pluralism within this new
conglomerate, to the benefit of a new
supranational power." ('Figaro', 24th
July 1999)
Washington and Western Europe (NATO)
contrived to exhaust the Soviets
economically (e.g., the Afghan war and
the arms race) bribed and otherwise
seduced many of its officials,
demeaned its ideology, and used other
means to bring about the Soviets' so-called
internal collapse.
In the 1980s, knowing that the
destruction of the Soviet Union was
near, the U.S. mobilized Germany and England and
launched the attack on Yugoslavia,
which went into high gear with the
externally-engineered secession of
Slovenia and Croatia in 1991,
precisely when the Soviet Union was
being destroyed.
Washington launched this attack
because crushing Yugoslavia, and especially
the passionately independent Serbs, is
the key to pacifying the Balkans. And
the Balkans is the strategic southern
flank of the former Soviet Union.
***********************
Washington Goes for World Conquest
***********************
There were plenty of problems with the
former Soviet Union, but these are
grossly distorted by politicians and
propagandists in the West. For example,
a year ago, in an article called
"Living with Russia," Zbigniew
Brzezinski, a strategist of U.S. Imperial rule,
explained the existence of grave
poverty in Russia as follows:
"The painful reality is that the
communist experiment has bequeathed to
the Russian people a ruined agriculture, a
retarded and in many places primitive
social infrastructure, a backward
economy increasingly facing the risk
of progressive de-industrialization, a
devastated environment, and a
demographically threatened population."
We have seen the same argument made
regarding Bulgaria and indeed all the
former socialist countries. It amounts
to heaping insult on injury. Since the
'fall' of communism, draconian
policies, dictated by Washington through the
International Monetary Fund, have
methodically laid waste to the economies
and social service-structures of these
countries.
In the Soviet Union, apartments,
childcare (available 24-hours a day),
medical and dental care, public
transportation and vacations were either free
or subsidized so working people could
afford them. Higher education was not
just free; students were paid stipends
if they maintained good grades. (This,
one might note in passing, was a
policy calculated to induce working
class students to go to college and study.
In much of the capitalist world today,
measures are in effect which produce
the opposite effect.)
The finest cultural achievements, such
as the great Bolshoi Ballet, were
enjoyed by ordinary people. For
example, in the case of the Bolshoi,
admission was a pittance and
transportation was organized so that
working people could attend.
In Soviet society, differences in
wealth existed but they were nothing
like those that exist in the West or that
have come to exist in the former
socialist countries.

L'UDIENZA DI OGGI 30 AGOSTO 2001
"Volete (o 'vogliamo') comportarvi (ci) da persone civilizzate oppure
volete fare come l'altra volta che mi avete staccato il microfono?"
Breve cronaca dell'udienza di oggi di SM all'Aia come � stata
riportata da un cronista del Messaggero (non ne hanno dato il nome),
trasmessa da Radiopopolare.
"Si e' ripetuto, allungato, lo scenario di due mesi fa. SM ha esordito
dichiarando illegale e illegittimo il tribunale. Si � dimostrato
aggressivo, ha mostrato segni di disagio, si e' seduto di traverso e
ha snobbato la corte. L'udienza e' durata 40 minuti. "Volete (o
'vogliamo') comportarvi (ci) da persone civilizzate oppure volete fare
come l'altra volta che mi avete staccato il microfono? Volete
nuovamente togliermi la parola?". Ad un certo punto la "sicurezza"

RAMSEY CLARK SLAMS HAGUE 'TRIBUNAL'
Introduction by Nico Varkevisser [2 August 2001]
Reposted from www.icdsm.org - Please forward & repost!
[Nico Varkevisser is Editor-in-Chief of the
monthly newspaper, 'Targets.' Mr.
Varkevisser is Vice-Chairman of the
International Committee to Defend
Slobodan Milosevic (ICDSM) and its
Coordinator in The Netherlands.]
Yesterday the ICDSM held another
press conference in Amsterdam.
The press was addressed by Ramsey Clark,
former Attorney General of the USA
and Co-Chairman of the ICDSM. Mr. Clark
had spent the better part of three
days meeting with President Slobodan Milosevic,
imprisoned in The Hague.
Posted below is a surprisingly accurate
'Reuters' dispatch covering the press
conference. I say 'surprisingly accurate'
because three days ago 'Reuters'
declared, as if repeating an accepted fact,
that Milosevic:
"...remains in solitary confinement at his
own request." ('Reuters,' 31 July 2001)
Contradicting this lie, Attorney Clark most
strongly protested the fact that
the Tribunal has kept Mr. Milosevic in
solitary confinement going into the
second month, thus violating even the
'Tribunal's' own rules and procedures.
Milosevic wants very much to be with the
other 'prisoners' but 'Tribunal'
officials have refused. In addition, said
Clark, Milosevic is especially
outraged about the insulting and inhumane
conditions under which his wife,
Mira Markovic, is forced to meet with him.
Reporters became somewhat hostile at
this point, demanding to know why the
'Tribunal' would possibly want to cause
problems for the President and his
wife. Clark answered that, obviously,
this was intended to break Milosevic.
"I have seen this in many countries,"
said Clark. "The authorities try to
disorient and weaken a political prisoner,
especially in the first stages of an arrest."
Clark noted that despite these attempts
to break Slobodan Milosevic, he
remains strong, has an excellent spirit,
is very sharp, and wants to argue
his case to expose NATO's aggression
aimed at breaking up and Yugoslavia, to
defend the sovereignty of Yugoslavia and
to defend the people of his country
against US and European plans to take
over and devastate the economy.
Said Clark: "Milosevic says, 'OK, I
didn't choose to be here, but I am here.
So apparently it is my destiny to use
this prison as a platform to help our people.'"

Ramsey Clark: Milosevic To Defend Himself With Legal Help
THE HAGUE, August 2, 2001 (Reuters) -
Slobodan Milosevic will mount his own
''very powerful defense'' against war
crimes charges in The Hague but wants
lawyers to assist him in court, former
U.S. attorney general Ramsey Clark said on Wednesday.
``He is a person who is used to speaking
for himself and he will speak for
himself, but he wants to have the
assistance of counsel, Clark said after
visiting the detained former Yugoslav
president for a third consecutive day
in The Hague.
Milosevic, in a show of contempt for a
court he has branded an ``illegal
instrument of his NATO enemies, made his
first appearance in court last month
alone after opting not to appoint a defense
lawyer.
Milosevic's unorthodox wish to have lawyers
assisting him both in court and
in the U.N. detention unit while declining
to follow the standard practice of
granting power of attorney has proved a
headache for tribunal officials.
``There is no precedence for this. Any
proposals like that would have to be
looked at by the judges and the court
registry, U.N. tribunal spokesman Jim
Landale said.
If he indeed represents himself during
the trial, expected to start next
year, he would be the first defendant
at The Hague tribunal to do so. Legal
experts have suggested such a strategy
would be foolish.
But lawyers supporting Milosevic, including
Clark, have said he wants to seek
expert legal advice without actually
granting power of attorney.
``He will not be represented...He will
have the advice of counsel on a whole
range of things...He is going to mount
a very powerful defense, said Clark, a
member of the International Committee
to Defend Slobodan Milosevic.
Milosevic, accused of atrocities in Kosovo
in 1999, was whisked out of Serbia
in late June to face war crimes charges
at the U.N. International Criminal
Tribunal for former Yugoslavia.
Milosevic is being held in isolation
from The Hague's other 39 detainees. The
U.N. court said the former leader wanted
to be kept apart from other
detainees, but Clark said Milosevic
did want to mix with other detainees.
Clark, 73, a campaigner for causes
often at odds with U.S. authorities,
served as attorney general under President
Lyndon Johnson in the late 1960s.
He condemned the 1999 NATO bombing of
Yugoslavia during the conflict over Kosovo.

Who Is Guilty? Milosevic or NATO?
by Stan Goff
[Stan Goff is a Retired U.S. Special
Forces Master Sargent, an author,
Organizer for the North Carolina
Alliance for Democracy and a member of
the
International Committee to Defend
Slobodan Milosevic. (ICDSM)]
What do you call someone who pays
officials to break the law, threatens
people with violence if they don't do
what he demands, spreads outrageous
lies to impugn people's reputations, and
participates in a plot to
illegally take an unwilling person out
of the country in captivity?
Guilty of bribery, extortion, slander
and kidnapping.
What do you call a government which does
precisely those things?
The United States in Yugoslavia.
Let's get something straight here. The
'War Crimes Tribunal' at the Hague
is no more an impartial judiciary (1)
than Geraldo Rivera is a
neurosurgeon, and Slobodan Milosevic is
no war criminal. These are just
simply facts, and the thing that--even
at 50--still amazes my ass is the
sheep-like, gullible,
we-just-fell-off-the-turnip-truck
acceptance of the
capitalist media's horse-manure by
comfortable fellow Americans.
United States military troops are
occupying the Balkans, many of them with
relatives who might read this, and very
few people seem the least bit
inclined to find out what's really going
on there. So they listen to CNN,
read the 'New York Times' or the 'News
and Observer,' watch PBS, or listen
to NPR, brought to you by... name your
favorite agribusiness or weapons
contractor... and believe them.
I've got a news flash for you, folks.
The media lie. They lie early and
often, and they keep on telling the same
lies over and over, apparently in
the well-founded hope that we will
simply and finally equate repetition
with accuracy. (2)
Slobodan Milosevic is no war criminal.
Nor was he a dictator. (3)
Until the US started a massive campaign
of extortion, bribery and election
rigging in Serbia, he won his elections
fair and square--unlike the current
de facto President of the United States.
Nor did Milosevic ever lead the
non-existent movement for Greater
Serbia. Nor do Serbs collectively "share"
any blame for whatever flavor-of-the-day
atrocity is being invented by the
IMF, the State Department, NATO
Headquarters in Brussels, or that fake
Tribunal.
Serbs are as fractious and pluralistic
as any group, especially about
politics, deeply split even today
between nationalists and socialists. What
they are not, contrary to the recent
resurgence of Serb-bashing, is
self-pitying and paranoid. They are one
of the most stoic, and tolerant,
people in Europe.
The distortions that underwrite this
latest violation of Yugoslav and
International law--the veritable
kidnapping of a former head of
state--would make Joseph Goebbels blush.
Crimes were invented to fit the
punishment of the Serbs. Allegations
were reported as facts, then
referenced later as if they really were
facts. The mounting evidence of a
giant hoax in almost every case has been
completely ignored by capitalist
media. The effect--intended I think--is
to create an impression so
overwhelming of Serbian guilt that to
question it is to be regarded as a
miscreant holocaust denier. Guilt by
analogy. Milosevic equals Hitler,
therefore defending Serbians equals
defending Nazis (a huge irony here,
since Serbs were tenacious and fearless
fighters against the Third Reich).
There's only one little rub. The
Holocaust has been well documented by the
physical evidence. The Serbians' guilt,
and that of Milosevic, has not.
But skepticism, fact-checking, and logic
have become forbidden foreign
languages in the United States,
especially our (laugh track here) "free"
press.
The overwhelming evidence is that there
was never any coordinated campaign
of genocide or ethnic cleansing by
Serbs, no massacres at either Racak or
Srebrenica, and never any such thing as
Serbian "rape camps." The Kosovo
violence was initiated by Albanian
heroin-gangsters, who named themselves
the Kosovo Liberation Army once they
started to get weapons and training
from German and US Intelligence. The
mass exodus out of Kosovo was not
triggered by Serb violence, but by NATO
bombing. The reports of 100,000
Kosovar Albanians killed has yet to be
corroborated with bodies, and is
being quietly scaled ever downward as
the bodies fail to appear. Racak was
shown to be staged. The bodies from the
Srebrenica "massacre" were never
located either, and in fact many of the
"missing" later turned up alive and
accounted for in Bosnian Muslim combat
units outside Srebrenica. The US and
the pseudo-Tribunal have an answer for
the missing evidence, those tens of
thousands of corpses, that is. Right
under the noses of US surveillance
satellites--and I have seen imagery from
them that can spot a motorcycle
and rider--the crafty Serbs, undetected,
moved thousands of decomposing
bodies to other locations... still to be
discovered. (4)
Right!
The break-up of Yugoslavia has been
largely due to the efforts of US and
German gambits, with substantial help
from the International Monetary Fund,
since the late 1980's. To justify this
economic warfare, this trampling of
sovereignty, this military aggression,
these massive violations by NATO and
the US of the Law of Land Warfare and
the Geneva and Hague Conventions, and
the military occupation of the Balkans,
our government and its
international financier pals have had to
concoct an elaborate Manichean
fantasy with Serbs as the heavy.
Don't take my word for it, but don't
look for a one-paragraph rebuttal
either. Understanding requires study and
work. If you're inclined to swim
upstream in this perennial flood of
stubborn American ignorance, read the
research and reports from Michel
Chossudovsky, Diane Johnstone, and Jared
Israel - none of them Serbian or
Yugoslav, and all of them proud
progressives. (5) (6) & (7)
The Hague Tribunal is about war crimes,
all right. It's about covering up
the war crimes of the North American
Treaty Organization and the US
Government.

Breve cronaca dell'udienza di oggi di SM all'Aia come � stata
riportata da un cronista del Messaggero (non ne hanno dato il nome),
trasmessa da Radiopopolare.
"Si e' ripetuto, allungato, lo scenario di due mesi fa. SM ha esordito
dichiarando illegale e illegittimo il tribunale. Si � dimostrato
aggressivo, ha mostrato segni di disagio, si e' seduto di traverso e
ha snobbato la corte. L'udienza e' durata 40 minuti. "Volete (o
'vogliamo') comportarvi (ci) da persone civilizzate oppure volete fare
come l'altra volta che mi avete staccato il microfono? Volete
nuovamente togliermi la parola?". Ad un certo punto la "sicurezza"
(sic...) spegneva i monitor, chiudeva le tende alle finestre, staccava
il microfono... "
Non e' stato detto altro.

RAMSEY CLARK SLAMS HAGUE 'TRIBUNAL'
Introduction by Nico Varkevisser [2 August 2001]
Reposted from www.icdsm.org - Please forward & repost!
[Nico Varkevisser is Editor-in-Chief of the
monthly newspaper, 'Targets.' Mr.
Varkevisser is Vice-Chairman of the
International Committee to Defend
Slobodan Milosevic (ICDSM) and its
Coordinator in The Netherlands.]
Yesterday the ICDSM held another
press conference in Amsterdam.
The press was addressed by Ramsey Clark,
former Attorney General of the USA
and Co-Chairman of the ICDSM. Mr. Clark
had spent the better part of three
days meeting with President Slobodan Milosevic,
imprisoned in The Hague.
Posted below is a surprisingly accurate
'Reuters' dispatch covering the press
conference. I say 'surprisingly accurate'
because three days ago 'Reuters'
declared, as if repeating an accepted fact,
that Milosevic:
"...remains in solitary confinement at his
own request." ('Reuters,' 31 July 2001)
Contradicting this lie, Attorney Clark most
strongly protested the fact that
the Tribunal has kept Mr. Milosevic in
solitary confinement going into the
second month, thus violating even the
'Tribunal's' own rules and procedures.
Milosevic wants very much to be with the
other 'prisoners' but 'Tribunal'
officials have refused. In addition, said
Clark, Milosevic is especially
outraged about the insulting and inhumane
conditions under which his wife,
Mira Markovic, is forced to meet with him.
Reporters became somewhat hostile at
this point, demanding to know why the
'Tribunal' would possibly want to cause
problems for the President and his
wife. Clark answered that, obviously,
this was intended to break Milosevic.
"I have seen this in many countries,"
said Clark. "The authorities try to
disorient and weaken a political prisoner,
especially in the first stages of an arrest."
Clark noted that despite these attempts
to break Slobodan Milosevic, he
remains strong, has an excellent spirit,
is very sharp, and wants to argue
his case to expose NATO's aggression
aimed at breaking up and Yugoslavia, to
defend the sovereignty of Yugoslavia and
to defend the people of his country
against US and European plans to take
over and devastate the economy.
Said Clark: "Milosevic says, 'OK, I
didn't choose to be here, but I am here.
So apparently it is my destiny to use
this prison as a platform to help our people.'"

Ramsey Clark: Milosevic To Defend Himself With Legal Help
THE HAGUE, August 2, 2001 (Reuters) -
Slobodan Milosevic will mount his own
''very powerful defense'' against war
crimes charges in The Hague but wants
lawyers to assist him in court, former
U.S. attorney general Ramsey Clark said on Wednesday.
``He is a person who is used to speaking
for himself and he will speak for
himself, but he wants to have the
assistance of counsel, Clark said after
visiting the detained former Yugoslav
president for a third consecutive day
in The Hague.
Milosevic, in a show of contempt for a
court he has branded an ``illegal
instrument of his NATO enemies, made his
first appearance in court last month
alone after opting not to appoint a defense
lawyer.
Milosevic's unorthodox wish to have lawyers
assisting him both in court and
in the U.N. detention unit while declining
to follow the standard practice of
granting power of attorney has proved a
headache for tribunal officials.
``There is no precedence for this. Any
proposals like that would have to be
looked at by the judges and the court
registry, U.N. tribunal spokesman Jim
Landale said.
If he indeed represents himself during
the trial, expected to start next
year, he would be the first defendant
at The Hague tribunal to do so. Legal
experts have suggested such a strategy
would be foolish.
But lawyers supporting Milosevic, including
Clark, have said he wants to seek
expert legal advice without actually
granting power of attorney.
``He will not be represented...He will
have the advice of counsel on a whole
range of things...He is going to mount
a very powerful defense, said Clark, a
member of the International Committee
to Defend Slobodan Milosevic.
Milosevic, accused of atrocities in Kosovo
in 1999, was whisked out of Serbia
in late June to face war crimes charges
at the U.N. International Criminal
Tribunal for former Yugoslavia.
Milosevic is being held in isolation
from The Hague's other 39 detainees. The
U.N. court said the former leader wanted
to be kept apart from other
detainees, but Clark said Milosevic
did want to mix with other detainees.
Clark, 73, a campaigner for causes
often at odds with U.S. authorities,
served as attorney general under President
Lyndon Johnson in the late 1960s.
He condemned the 1999 NATO bombing of
Yugoslavia during the conflict over Kosovo.

Who Is Guilty? Milosevic or NATO?
by Stan Goff
[Stan Goff is a Retired U.S. Special
Forces Master Sargent, an author,
Organizer for the North Carolina
Alliance for Democracy and a member of
the
International Committee to Defend
Slobodan Milosevic. (ICDSM)]
What do you call someone who pays
officials to break the law, threatens
people with violence if they don't do
what he demands, spreads outrageous
lies to impugn people's reputations, and
participates in a plot to
illegally take an unwilling person out
of the country in captivity?
Guilty of bribery, extortion, slander
and kidnapping.
What do you call a government which does
precisely those things?
The United States in Yugoslavia.
Let's get something straight here. The
'War Crimes Tribunal' at the Hague
is no more an impartial judiciary (1)
than Geraldo Rivera is a
neurosurgeon, and Slobodan Milosevic is
no war criminal. These are just
simply facts, and the thing that--even
at 50--still amazes my ass is the
sheep-like, gullible,
we-just-fell-off-the-turnip-truck
acceptance of the
capitalist media's horse-manure by
comfortable fellow Americans.
United States military troops are
occupying the Balkans, many of them with
relatives who might read this, and very
few people seem the least bit
inclined to find out what's really going
on there. So they listen to CNN,
read the 'New York Times' or the 'News
and Observer,' watch PBS, or listen
to NPR, brought to you by... name your
favorite agribusiness or weapons
contractor... and believe them.
I've got a news flash for you, folks.
The media lie. They lie early and
often, and they keep on telling the same
lies over and over, apparently in
the well-founded hope that we will
simply and finally equate repetition
with accuracy. (2)
Slobodan Milosevic is no war criminal.
Nor was he a dictator. (3)
Until the US started a massive campaign
of extortion, bribery and election
rigging in Serbia, he won his elections
fair and square--unlike the current
de facto President of the United States.
Nor did Milosevic ever lead the
non-existent movement for Greater
Serbia. Nor do Serbs collectively "share"
any blame for whatever flavor-of-the-day
atrocity is being invented by the
IMF, the State Department, NATO
Headquarters in Brussels, or that fake
Tribunal.
Serbs are as fractious and pluralistic
as any group, especially about
politics, deeply split even today
between nationalists and socialists. What
they are not, contrary to the recent
resurgence of Serb-bashing, is
self-pitying and paranoid. They are one
of the most stoic, and tolerant,
people in Europe.
The distortions that underwrite this
latest violation of Yugoslav and
International law--the veritable
kidnapping of a former head of
state--would make Joseph Goebbels blush.
Crimes were invented to fit the
punishment of the Serbs. Allegations
were reported as facts, then
referenced later as if they really were
facts. The mounting evidence of a
giant hoax in almost every case has been
completely ignored by capitalist
media. The effect--intended I think--is
to create an impression so
overwhelming of Serbian guilt that to
question it is to be regarded as a
miscreant holocaust denier. Guilt by
analogy. Milosevic equals Hitler,
therefore defending Serbians equals
defending Nazis (a huge irony here,
since Serbs were tenacious and fearless
fighters against the Third Reich).
There's only one little rub. The
Holocaust has been well documented by the
physical evidence. The Serbians' guilt,
and that of Milosevic, has not.
But skepticism, fact-checking, and logic
have become forbidden foreign
languages in the United States,
especially our (laugh track here) "free"
press.
The overwhelming evidence is that there
was never any coordinated campaign
of genocide or ethnic cleansing by
Serbs, no massacres at either Racak or
Srebrenica, and never any such thing as
Serbian "rape camps." The Kosovo
violence was initiated by Albanian
heroin-gangsters, who named themselves
the Kosovo Liberation Army once they
started to get weapons and training
from German and US Intelligence. The
mass exodus out of Kosovo was not
triggered by Serb violence, but by NATO
bombing. The reports of 100,000
Kosovar Albanians killed has yet to be
corroborated with bodies, and is
being quietly scaled ever downward as
the bodies fail to appear. Racak was
shown to be staged. The bodies from the
Srebrenica "massacre" were never
located either, and in fact many of the
"missing" later turned up alive and
accounted for in Bosnian Muslim combat
units outside Srebrenica. The US and
the pseudo-Tribunal have an answer for
the missing evidence, those tens of
thousands of corpses, that is. Right
under the noses of US surveillance
satellites--and I have seen imagery from
them that can spot a motorcycle
and rider--the crafty Serbs, undetected,
moved thousands of decomposing
bodies to other locations... still to be
discovered. (4)
Right!
The break-up of Yugoslavia has been
largely due to the efforts of US and
German gambits, with substantial help
from the International Monetary Fund,
since the late 1980's. To justify this
economic warfare, this trampling of
sovereignty, this military aggression,
these massive violations by NATO and
the US of the Law of Land Warfare and
the Geneva and Hague Conventions, and
the military occupation of the Balkans,
our government and its
international financier pals have had to
concoct an elaborate Manichean
fantasy with Serbs as the heavy.
Don't take my word for it, but don't
look for a one-paragraph rebuttal
either. Understanding requires study and
work. If you're inclined to swim
upstream in this perennial flood of
stubborn American ignorance, read the
research and reports from Michel
Chossudovsky, Diane Johnstone, and Jared
Israel - none of them Serbian or
Yugoslav, and all of them proud
progressives. (5) (6) & (7)
The Hague Tribunal is about war crimes,
all right. It's about covering up
the war crimes of the North American
Treaty Organization and the US
Government.
