A new book
HIDDEN AGENDA: U.S./NATO TAKEOVER OF YUGOSLAVIA
Published by the International Action center
The United States may have the world's largest military machine but
ultimately this government cannot control the forces it has unleashed.
There is a rising global movement against this ruthless competition
and spiraling economic chaos. Six months after NATO's bombing of
Yugoslavia a new movement against corporate globalization was born in
Seattle. Hundreds of thousands of young activists have focused on the
brutal policies imposed by the International Monetary Fund, the World
Bank and the trade agreements such as NAFTA and the FTAA, and the
World Trade Organization. This is a movement outraged at sweatshop
conditions, prisons, environmental devastation and capitalist chaos.
We are confident that the material published in this book will
contribute toward the judgment of history. NATO means continuing war,
crisis and colonial domination. Here at home NATO's existence means
greater poverty and repression. This book is our effort to develop an
understanding and to plant seeds of resistance. Resistance is needed,
resistance is possible. The new movement against corporate
globalization has shown that resistance will grow. (From "Abolish NATO
and Its Court" by Sara Flounders )
The book is available for purchase online from www.leftbooks.com.

3/30/2002
YUGOSLAVIA, THE AVOIDABLE WAR was held over for a third week at
the Two Boots Pioneer Theater in New York's Lower East Side.
In Steven Holden's review for The New York Times, he wrote <<One of
the many unsettling contentions of George Bogdanich's documentary
film, "Yugoslavia, the Avoidable War," is its assertion that many of
the most horrendous events in the recent Balkan wars were
stage-managed for the news media.>> He adds later, <<Almost anything
we thought we knew about the Balkan wars is thrown into question by
the film.>>
Directed by George Bogdanich; directors of photography, Michael Moser,
Vladimir Bibic, Dragan Milinkovic, David Hansen, Joe Friendly and
Predrag Bambic; edited by Mary Patierno; title song, "Road to Hell,"
by Chris Rea; produced by Mr. Bogdanich and Martin Lettmayer; released
by Hargrove Entertainmnet.
Running time: 165 minutes.
