Gentle Reign: Washington Makes It Perfectly
Clear in Kosovo
by Jared Israel
Gentleness is a virtue, my friends.
With this in mind, note how the U.S. military dealt
recently with some terrorists, or as the media calls
them, 'ethnic Albanian rebels', or 'guerillas'.
The terrorists were returning to Kosovo after being
rudely received by security forces in the country
called Former Macedonia. They were in a hurry to get
home.
"Jim Marshal, spokesman for the U.S.-led contingent of
the KFOR [i.e., NATO] multinational peacekeeping
force, said the men appeared to be dumping their
uniforms and weapons before heading towards Kosovo.
'"We saw a lot of men in black uniforms crossing into
Kosovo, entering buildings, changing out of their
uniforms, leaving their weapons and coming here...in
civilian clothes,' Marshal told reporters in the
Kosovo village of Debelde, where U.S. troops are
monitoring the trouble.
'''We have seen machine guns and some RPGs
(rocket-propelled grenades) and light weapons,' he
said.
'Anyone who crossed into Kosovo would be detained and
searched, he said. 'We will disarm them and detain
them and investigate each case individually. It is up
to KFOR to decide about further investigations,'
Marshal said.
"'We are talking with the civilians here in Debelde to
convince the armed men to hand over their weapons and
finish this thing."' (My emphasis, 'Reuters',
3-4-2001)
U.S. forces were following the terrorists closely
enough to watch as they shed their clothing and
entered a town which U.S. military spokesman Marshall
calls 'here'. That town was Debelde, coincidentally
the place where U.S. forces (including, apparently,
Mr. Marshall) were stationed.
"We saw [the terrorists] entering buildings, changing
out of their uniforms," said Mr. Marshall.
Isn't this remarkable? The U.S. military and the
terrorists shared the same home base; the U.S.
military knew exactly where the terrorists were at all
times; but the U.S. military did not prevent the
terrorists from attacking Macedonia. Nor did it swoop
down and arrest the terrorists as they were "dumping
their uniforms and weapons", did not stop them from
illegally entering Kosovo and did not immediately turn
them over to Macedonians security forces whom they had
attacked with rocket-propelled grenades, etc.
As you may recall, the BBC has reported:
"Western special forces were still training the
guerrillas [i.e., the terrorists attacking Serbia and
Former Macedonia] as a result of decisions taken
before the change of government in Yugoslavia "
('BBC', Monday, 29 January, 2001)
Could Mr. Marshall have been engaging in double talk?
Could this be a case of Washington simultaneously
sponsoring and lamenting 'Greater Albanian' terrorism?
Why did the terrorists return 'here', that is, to U.S.
headquarters?
Keep in mind that these so-called 'rebels' are none
other than the Kosovo Liberation Army, recycled. Ever
since the KLA was glued together by German and US
'intelligence' from a mishmash of drug traffickers,
children of World War II Nazis and diehard supporters
of the late Albanian leader, Enver Hoxha, said KLA has
never won a battle against people with actual guns,
e.g., the Yugoslav Army. The KLA's specialty is
drive-by shootings and cutting the throats of
civilians, preferably old people and children.
Now a group of KLA'ers had invaded Macedonia and
received an unexpectedly harsh reception; that is, the
local security forces shot back. So they turned tail
and fled to the U.S. base in Debelde to complain,
shedding weapons and clothing as they went.
Why to Debelde? Doesn't it make sense that Debelde was
a base for those "Western special forces [who] were
still training the guerrillas"?
But just as the U.S. military was able to observe the
terrorists' shedding their clothing as they raced back
from Former Macedonia, so could the Former Macedonian
security forces who had routed the terrorists.
Everyone concerned was aware: the terrorists were
fleeing to a U.S. base.
This must have been embarrassing for the U.S. military
command. In an effort to spin gold from misfortune,
military spokesman Marshall called a press conference.
The U.S. military would take action, he declared.
"Everyone who crossed into Macedonia would be detained
and searched."
At first this sounds good, but on reflection it is not
clear what Mr. Marshall's men could hope to find
since, according to him, the terrorists had thrown
away clothing and weapons as they rushed back to
Debelde. Were they going to search for tattoos? In a
flash of perhaps unintended humor, Mr. Marshall added
that:
"We will... investigate each case individually..."
'Individually' has a nicely American ring, but again,
what did Mr. Marshall expect to discover? That some of
the terrorists had perfectly good reasons for
attacking Macedonia with "machine guns and some RPGs
(rocket-propelled grenades) and light weapons" whereas
others were being quite naughty?
And what would the U.S. military do after it was done
searching and individually investigating? Mr. Marshall
left that question open. "It will be up to KFOR to
decide about further investigations,'' he said.
The U.S. military was not going to move hastily in
ambiguous matters of law.
Back in the Real World
There is nothing ambiguous about the law concerning
these terrorists. Even UN resolution 1244, which is
NATO's justification for being in Kosovo, affirms:
"...the commitment of all Member States to the
sovereignty and territorial integrity of the Federal
Republic of Yugoslavia and the other States of the
region, as set out in the Helsinki Final Act and annex
2..."
The terrorists are attacking Yugoslavia and Former
Macedonia, i.e., "the States of the region." The U.S.
military is required to seize them and turn them over
to the legal authorities in those countries. Period.
In a dispatch that almost surely referred to the
United States and Britain, the 'BBC' reported that :
"...certain Nato-led K-For forces were not preventing
the guerrillas taking mortars and other weapons into
the exclusion zone
"The guerrilla units had been able to hold exercises
there, including live-firing of weapons, despite the
fact that K-For patrols the zone." ('BBC', Jan 29,
2001)
UN Resolution 1244 has many faults. One fault is that
it was forced on Yugoslavia through the worst possible
violation of international law - the 78 day bombing of
Yugoslavia. Moreover, Resolution 1244 states that the
Yugoslav government has suppressed the rights of
ethnic Albanians, which is simply a lie invented to
justify NATO's crimes including sponsoring terrorism
and bombing a sovereign nation. (1)
However even Resolution 1244:
"15. Demands that the KLA and other armed Kosovo
Albanian groups end immediately all offensive actions
and comply with the requirements for demilitarization
as laid down by the head of the international security
presence in consultation with the Special
Representative of the Secretary-General;" [my
emphasis] (3)
Yet the KLA, trained by "Western special forces", has
been attacking southern Serbia for more than a year
and is now attacking Former Macedonia.
I submit that the United States and Britain are using
KLA terrorists as a wedge to help undermine the
sovereignty of Yugoslavia and Former Macedonia. This
is a direct violation of the Helsinki Final Act, a
cornerstone of international law, which commits its
signers, including the United States and Britain :
"To refrain from any use of armed forces inconsistent
with the purposes and principles of the Charter of the
United Nations and the provisions of the Declaration
on Principles Guiding Relations between Participating
States, against another participating State, in
particular from invasion of or attack on its
territory.
"To refrain from any manifestation of force for the
purpose of inducing another participating State to
renounce the full exercise of its sovereign rights."
[my emphasis] (2)
While it sponsors terrorist attacks on sovereign
nations, the United States government and its various
covert and overt conduits (of money) simultaneously
organize and fund "civil society" groups in targeted
nations around the world. The "civil society" groups
preach that targeted nations must learn to respect the
rule of law. (4)
In other words: WE can and will violate any law or
agreement any time we wish and we will accuse YOU whom
we wish to destroy of doing the violating and THAT is
the New World Order.
And that is how the game is played, my friends. People
of the world: take notice.

Kosovo during the NATO bombing: not mainly because of
the bombing, and not because of Serb attacks.

was the chief archivist of Kosovo and leader of the

Jews were driven from the province by the KLA, with
NATO's complicity. The interview can be read at
