THE INTERNATIONAL CRIMINAL TRIBUNAL FOR THE FORMER YUGOSLAVIA A
CREATION AND INSTRUMENT OF NATO
Ostrava, February 2001
There is an ugly, dirty spot on the face of Europe. It is a sort of
cancer, regrettably still very much cherished by the official European
Union (EU) and its parliament, by NATO and. the USA (especially by the
former Clinton’s administration). It is the International Criminal
Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia in The Hague, the ICTY, that started
its official wretched, existence in May 1993. Its hypocrisy and biased,
lawless and unfair activities, as well as a very selective justice,
made out of it, in its-present form, a kangaroo court. The events
during the last 10 years in Yugoslavia have proved it.
Many hundreds of years ago, Saint Augustine (354-430) said that a state
without law was a den of bandits. In a similar way one could say that a
court without justice is a den of rogues. It is just to punish various
war crimes, but it is criminal to organize a selective, onesided,
biased justice in the hope that the world is stupid enough to swallow
anything that the US/NATO/EU propaganda machine fabricated.
The creation of the ICTY as a subsidiary of the UN Security Council was
legally very doubtful from its very beginning. Among the first to head
the preparatory work for the ICTY was an honest Dutch professor of law
Fritz Kalshoven who soon resigned, obviously because he realized that
shameless frauds and frame-ups were being concocted, under a. severe
pressure by Clinton’s administration. It is sad to realize that the so-
called „free world“ has been led and informed during the last 10 (1991-
2000) by a gang of disinformers, even overt liars.
The first violation of justice occured when the data were collected for
the ICTY, about the crimes perpetrated in Yugoslavia during the civil-
ethnic-religious war, where nobody was quite innocent. A devout Muslim
from Egypt, a professor at De Paul University (Chicago, USA) „Sharif“
M.Bassiouni was picked up (by whom ?) to prepare the data base for the
ICTY (murder, torture, plunder, rape, etc.) and to publish his
findings. But, alas, in a huge annex of his report, he practically
omitted the well documented Serbian reports about the crimes
perpetrated against them. And so the ICTY obtained only the data de-
scri’Bing the Serbian real and alleged war crimes, without any attempt
to evaluate their credibility or truthfulness. The Serbian data about
the Croat and Muslim crimes had been sent to professor Bassiouni three
times, one even as a diplomatic mail, but he omitted them somehow, just
left them out.
Milivoje Ivanisevic, a Serb academic, from the north-eastern Bosnia,
collected in his book „The Chronicle of Our Cemetery“ (Belgrade, 1994)
a vast quantity of data about the mass murder, ethnic cleansing,
torture, plunder, etc., carried out by the Muslim extremists and their
collaborators (1992-93) at Bratunac, Milici, Skelani and Srefarenica -
until 1991 the latter had almost 30% of Serb inhabitants, in 1995
none. .Detailed lists of the murdered (about 1000) , of their killers,
of the property plundered, were given to the Crimes Investigators of
the ICTY. but nothing happened, nobody was indicted. And so, as an
example par excellance, Nasir Oric, the war criminal, the commander of
the Muslim garrison (the 28th division) in the
allegedly „demilitarized“ (sic !) Srebrenica is free and well-off, in
his disco club in Tuzla, where are so many Americans, regardless of the
fact that his troops devastated up to 100 Serbian villages in Eastern
Bosnia, killing about 1200 civilians. A member of the Bosnian
parliament for Izetbegovic’s SDA party, in an article the reign of
terror in Srebrenica, as organized by Nasir Oric (Slobodna Bosna, July
14, 1996).
When in September 1993 the Croatian army, its 9th brigade, supported by
many foreign mercenaries, overran and completely destroyed the Serbian
villages Medak, Citluk and Divoselo in the UN protected „pink zone“ of
Krajina, killing about 100 unprotected civilians (the
French „protectors“ fled), the event was described in detail by the
high UN representative Cedrin Thornberry. „The UN dossiers, with their
voluminous evidence, have been given to the Crimes Investigators (of
the ICTY) on October 6 – 1993,.. Since then there has been nothing but
silence“ (Foreign Policy, Fall 1996). In that war crime a prominent
role was played by Agim Ceku, an Albanian officer who defected from
earlier the former Yugoslav Army. He was promoted to general after the
Medak massacre by the late Croatian president Franjo Tudjman. Later, in
1999, Ceku commanded the Albanian KLA (Kosovo Liberation Army, UCK)
terrorists in Kosovo, and. became later the boss, of the armed „Kosovo
Protection Corps“ the MTK, the new form of the KLA, According to press
reports, he is on the list of war criminals of the ICTY, allegedly on
the payroll of UN, as commander of the MTK. The ICTY did not care about
the above so far.
In early September 1991 the Croatian army and police assassinated about
100 Serbs in the area of Gospic in Croatia. A special „liquidation
squad“ called the „Autumn Rains“ did it. Its leading men were Tomislav
Mercep (notoriously known for crimes against the Serbs in the Eastern
Slavonia, in the area of Vukovar, Borovo) and Mirko Norac, later the
youngest Croatian general (at 34), known for his war crimes and wanted
even by the Croatian authorities (january-february 2001) in connection
with the mass murder of Serbs in Croatia. This crying shame was never
mentioned by the ICTY. The last fall (2000), Ms.Carla del Ponte, the
latest prosecutor general of the ICTY, visited Gospic and Zagreb.
One could have expected that she would indict him and try to get the
extradition of Mirko Norac for his war crimes, as well as of some of
his’collaborators, e.g., Tihomir Oreskovic, one of the most notorious
killers of Serbs in the Gospic district (1991) – but just the opposite
happened. Norac surrendered himself and was arrested, immediately after
the ICTY informed the Croatian authorities (Feb.21, 2001) that it would
not prosecute Norac (DPA).-“Norac is not on the list of persons,
prosecuted by the Tribunal, and his case will n o t be transferred to
The Hague“, said Carla del Ponte, to strengthen the utter hypocrisy of
the ICTY. The above killers organized murder of up to 100 Serbs and
some pro-Yugoslav Croats in the Gospic area, mostly „teachers, judges,
doctors. Before he started his bloodstained carrer, before he became a
member of a special police unit, Mirko Norac had been a waiter. His
military carrer was really staggering: in less than 10 years, he was
made from a waiter a general. He was a protege of the late Croatian
Defence Secretary Gojko Susak. A Croatian ex-intelligence officer
Mr.Milan Levar, who had testified against him, was killed last year
(2000) when a bomb exploded in his house at Gospic.
The ICTY has issued repeated warrants for arrest of three officers of
the Yugoslav Army, asking their extradition from Belgrade, for. alleged
war crimes against the Croatian civilians in autumn 1991 duringfighting
around Vukovar. But the ICTY did not mention a single time the well
documented war crimes perpetrated by the Croatian National. Guard Corps
(ZNG) and the paramilitaries in spring and summer 1991 in the Vukovar
area, in Borovo and in Borovo Naselje, where many (!) hundreds of Serbs
had been tortured and killed. The leading Croatian officials Tomislav
Mercep, Branimir Glavas (commander of the notorious „Black Legion“),
even Vladimir Seks took a leading part in it, together with many local
killers, As an utter hypocrisy, the visiting members of the European
parliament (Febr.10, 20.01) strongly requested in Belgrade the
extradition of the above mentioned three officers, without mentioning
the war crimes by the Croatian paramilitaries and police. Probably the
EU parliamentarians did not know about those crimes, because nobody had
told them and so their ignorance created the above arrogance. Some EU
officials and the ICTY started even to blackmail the new Yugoslav
government, connecting the extradition of the alleged war criminals
with the economic aid to the country, devastated by the US/NATO
aggression, approved by the EU. How is it possible that a real war
criminal, Javier Solana (see the resolutions of the three Tribunals in
Kiyev, Berlin, New York, in ‘•:.: may and June 2000) is among the top
ranking EU officials? Wasn’t it Mr.Solana who „pressed the button“ oh
March 24, 1999, that started the criminal NATO aggression against
Yugoslavia?
Ms.Louise Arbour, the second prosecutor general of the ICTY, visited
Sarajevo in autumn 1997. At that time it was full of appalling details
about the mass murder of Serbs during 1992-93, a part of whom had been
thrown into deep mountain pits KAZANI, near Sarajevo. The crimes were
described in an independent Sarajevo journal DANI (Nov.7, 1997), and by
the International Herald Tribune (8-9 Nov.,1997). The latter estimated
that 1000 to 2000 Serbs had been robbed and brutally killed.Even a
detailed list of 51 killers was published, most of them belonged to the
10th Muslim mountain brigade, including their commander Musan Topalovic-
Caco and the boss of another gang of thugs Izmet-Bajramovic-Celo. The
ICTY authorities had been informed about those crimes by officials of
Republika Srpska in Pale. But the ICTY remained silent, nobody was
indicted, regardless of the well documented evidence of murder,
robbery, torture.
After leaving her post in The Hague in 1999, the ICTY „inquisitor“
Ms.Louise Arbour was rewarded for her obedience, submissivenes to her
US/NATO bosses. She became a member of the Supreme Court of Canada.
The expulsions, robbery, ethnic cleansing, even murder of the Serbs
living for many centuries in Croatia started even before its official
secession on June 25, 1991. As an example, two „Crystal Nights“ must be
mentioned, resembling the beginning of the Nazi pogroms against Jews,.
the original „Crystal Night“ (on Nov. 9, 1938). On the eve of May 1,
1991, the anti-Serb hysteria, organized by Mr.Tudjman’s party (HDZ) and
the ustasha (Croat fascists during the Second World War) diaspora
mobilized chauvinistic Croatian mobs in Zadar. They robbed, vandalized
and burned Serbian shops, restaurants, private homes. The same was
repeated on May 3 in Sibenik and in other localities of Dalmatia. Many
Serbian houses were dynamited. Croatian punishment expeditions bursted
into many villages, looting, even killing. There was no mention of it
in any ICTY report, nobody was indicted.
At the beginning of 1996 the Muslim authorities kidnapped in Sarajevo
(where they had been officially) two high ranking officers of the
Republika Srpska, general Djukic and colonel Krsmanovic. There was no
official warrant issued. The prosecutor general of the ICTY at that
time Richard Goldstone ordered their immediate transfer to the prison
in The Hague. After many weeks of interrogations, they were released. A
few days after his release, general Djukic died, he was in a terminal
stage of cancer. His family complained that he had, while in prison, no
proper treatment, no proper diet… A well known Dutch professor of the
international law Theo van Boven stated at that time that the
kidnapping of both officers lacked any legal justification and that it
was at odds with various conventions on human rights. Mr.Goldstone was
not authorized to behave like that. A real danger always existed,
professor Boven thought, that the ICTY would become a prolonged arm of
American interests.
When in may 1995 the Croatian army, well armed and equipped by Germany,
the USA, Argentina, etc., in spite of the existing arms embargo and
armistice agreement overran the Western Slavonia (a part of the Serbian
Krajina), plundering, killing (reports said many hundreds) and burning
everything, destroying many villages, expelling over 20 000 (30 000)
Serbs, the ICTY did not take any action. But when Mr.M.Martic,
president of the Serbian Krajina ordered firing of a few rockets on
Zagreb (there were 5 dead and a dozen or so wounded), the ICTY declared
immediately that Mr.Martic was a war criminal. What a hypocrisy!
But the most flagrant hypocrisy of the ICTY became evident during the
Croatian army offensive called THE STORM, in august 1995 that_expel led
over 200 000 Serbs from their ancient homes in Krajina and massacre ‘.
intentionally hundreds of them. The Croatian army was very well
equipped during the arms embargo by Germany (huge quantities of arms,
including tanks, helicopters, planes from the former East German army),
the USA, Argentina, etc. The planning of the „Storm“ was done by hired
American „dogs of war“, the retired mercenary generals from the MPRI
(Military Professional Resources, Inc., Alexandria, Virginia). The ICTY
remained absolutely silent, no outcries came from it. But the ICTY
panicked, when its former employee made public in the New York Times
(March 21, 1999) that the ICTY had been well informed about the carnage
in Krajina by the Croatian army and special police, but did not act
accordingly, did not charge the perpetrators. Three Croatian generals
Ante Gotovina, Ivan Korada, and Ivan Cermak, under whose orders all
that happened, were never indicted. Neither was the Croatian president
F.Tudjman branded as a war criminal. Serbia, and Republica Srpska in
Bosnia, flooded by refugees, did not get a dime from the organizers of
that blood bath (the USA, Germany). Anybody who travelled through
Krajina by. car during the last 5-6 years had the opportunity to see
the incredible devastations, the barbarism of the West that sponsored
it.
Three explosions in Sarajevo, thanks to the mendacity and false
evidence of the western leaders and media, of the Muslim and Croat
authorities, caused irreparable damages to the Serbs. It was „the
breadline massacre“ (May 27, 1992), „Markale I massacre“ (Feb. 5,
1994), and „Markale II massacre“ (Aug.27,1995), with over 100 dead and
much over 300 wounded. Without any proper proof, the Bosnian Serbs,
were immediately blamed for all the carnage by the West, parroted
hysterically by the Muslim and Croat officials, media. But very soon
the available evidence, including the Western sources, proved that all
three explosions and massacres of their own people had been
masterminded by the Muslim authorities in Sarajevo – and that Markale
II was prepared in collaboration with some unnamed western secret
services, to compel and authorise NATO to destroy the facilities of the
Bosnian Serb Army, the infrastructure of the Republika Srpska, and to
become ‘de facto an ally of Muslims and Croats. The original outcry
after the explosions from the ICTY was, overwhelming, the western
politicians, naturally including Mrs.Albright, and media created an
atmosphere of hysteria. But, when it was shown later that the massacres
had been prepared by the Muslim authorities themselves, the West (and
the ICTY) remained silent Neither Mr.Alija Izetbegovic, nor his
generals were indicted, nor the NATO commander whose orders meant the
death and destruction in the Republika Srpska, the use of the murderous
DU (depleted uranium) bombs.
Another case of western fabrications and hysteria, of an ICTY hypocrisy
was the case of Srebrenica. The very inflated numbers of the alleged
victims (8-12 000), of the disappeared Muslim civilians and military
(feared dead), the huge discrepancies among various figures have never
been substantiated. There was severe fighting around Srebrenica, with
losses among civilians, there were many military casualties on both
sides – the Serbian sources put their losses at 1200 dead, with over
2000 dead Muslims. But it was no genocide as the wild reports of the
western media and politicians, including Mrs.Albright and the ICTY, the
Muslims| / tried to describe. The reports by many members of the
Dutchbat, stationed at Srebrenica, are quite realistic about it. The
western (including the ICTY) and the Muslim disinformers are beginning
now to believe in their own fabrications, because they repeated them so
many times. Hitler’s minister for propaganda Mr.J.Goebbels would be
enthusiasted…The ICTY never charged the Muslim army and
paramilitaries for their crimes against so many Serbian villages around
Srebrenica. …The excellent book by J.Elsasser „The War Crimes“
(Konkret, Hamburg, 2000) gives a perfect overview about the „myth“ of
Srebrenica, about the Racak „affair“. The case of Srebrenica was one of
the master fabrications of the ICTY during its indictment and trial in
absentia of the Serbian leader in Bosnia, Dr.Radovan Karadzic and
general Ratko Mladic. Among the 19 charges against the leaders of
US/NATO by the Tribunal in New York (June 10, 2000),there was the
important charge No.14, that the illegal ad hoc tribunal (ICTY) was
established with intention to destroy and demonize the Serb leaders.
The western politicians, media, and their obedient USA/NATO subsidiary,
the ICTY, with all its stooges, managed to increase the hatred to
unprecedented levels both in Croatia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, in
Kosovo… The expulsion of over 200 000 Serbs from Krajina could have
been seen by the whole world (the western media did not show it too
much), the carnage of the remaining Serbs in Krajina was confirmed by
many independent observers, but it meant almost nothing to the West,
while the ICTY was absolutely silent. But the controversial case of
Srebrenica, with many discrepancies, unsubstantiated hearsays,
represented for the western pharisees much more than the incomparably
more appalling fate of the Serbs from The Serbian Republic Krajina. The
western radio, TV, press and politicians almost managed to shout down
the truth.
Did the ICTY indict colonel Atif Dudakoyic, commander of the 5th Muslim
corps from the protected and „demilitarized“ (what a farce) Bihac in
the western Bosnia, when his offensive in autumn 1994, with logistic
and NATO air support expelled over 20 000 Serbs, civilians, leaving
behind devastated villages with many dead, until he was driven back by
the Army of Republika Srpska (VRS)? The ICTY was silent again. Did’the
ICTY accuse anybody of „CULTURAL GENOCIDE“, when about 300 000 books
written in the Cyrillic alphabet (because the Serbs read it) had been
destroyed in Croatia (as in the „old, good“ Hitler times) The CULTURAL
GENOCIDE in Kosovo, with about 2 000 000 books in Serbian destroyed by
Albanians, left the people of the ICTY absolutely without interest,
without any public outcry. When during the 1998, at the height of the
KLA terrorist activity in Kosovo, about 50 periodicals in the Albanian
appeared there, the West, including Mr.B.Kouchner and the ICTY kept
talking about a cultural apartheid in Kosovo.
At the end of december 1994, the former US president Jimmy Carter,
brokered a four months armistice in Bosnia. But during february 1995
many US planes brought secretely at night a lot of arms and ammunition
to the Tuzla airport. It enabled the Muslim command to break the
armistice and to start an offensive on March 20, during which again
Serb settlments were destroyed and many civilians killed. Neither the
UN, nor the ICTY protested, nobody was indicted.
(1/2 continua)
(2/2 fine)
The lies and fabrications of the western politicians and media reached
their climax during the US/NATO aggression against Yugoslavia,
supported more or less by the EU. The ICTY tried as much as possible to
justify the US/NATO crimes. But, fortunately, those lies were generally
short-lived, but they are still present. To explain it, the title of an
article by D.Pearl and R.Block in the Wall Street Journal (Dec. .31,
1999) may be quoted: „War in Kosovo Was Cruel, Bitter, Savage; Genocide
it wasn’t“, with a subtitle „Tales of Mass Atrocity Arose and Were
Passed Along Often with Little. Proof – No Corpses in the Mine Shaft“.
It must be stressed here that the pundits of this journal were renowned
for their anti-Serb attitudes. But here – they were honest. A.Cockburn
published a cogent article ridiculing the western (and ICTY)
fabrications „Where’s the evidence of Genocide of Kosovar Albanians?“
(Los Angeles Times, Oct.29, 1999):..Unfortunately, the western
propaganda and fabrications, devised by the obedient servants of
US/NATO, by the ICTY, had dire consequences for the Serbs. The US/NATO
orchestrated the frame-up of Racak {Jan.16, 1999)- They contri ved
there the evidence against Yugoslavia (Serbs), so that a verdict of
guilty was assured. The framers had a good organizer there, the boss of
the OSCE verificators in Kosovo, Mr.William Walker, a veteran of
criminal interferences by the State Department in the Central America“
(Balkans Infos, No.42, March 2000). All the above was immediately
abused by the big „framer“ Mrs M. Albright, during the farce
called „the talks at Rambouillet“, that enabled her to persuade the war-
mongers of the New World Order to start the criminal war of aggression
against Yugoslavia. It was her „very personal war“, as her spokesman
J.Rubin wrote ( The Financial Times, Sept.30/Oct. 1, 2000). Instead of
accusing the war criminal Mrs.Albright (see the resolutions of the
Tribunals in Kiyev, Berlin, New York in 2000) of starting the
bloodbath, the ICTY wholeheartedly supported the US/NATO bosses. The
prosecutor general Ms.Arbour, in an attempt to help them, when the
public of the West started to doubt the US/NATO claims to wage
a „humanitarian war“ in Kosovo, Ms.Arbour accused (May 27, 1999) the
Serb leaders Milosevic, Milutinovic, general Ojdanic and others, of
genocide, of war crimes in Kosovo with a simple objective: to show the
world that the aggression against Yugoslavia was actually an ACTION
AGAINST CRIMINALS. What a fabrication, hypocrisy good for the feeble
minded!…For this dirty role of her, two internationally well known
lawyers, C.Black (Canada) and E.S.Herman (USA) called Ms.L.Arbour – the
war criminal not yet accused (Balkans Infos No. 42, March 2000).
There is plenty of evidence now that Racak was not a massacre of
innocent civilians. The final findings by the Finnish pathologists have
shown it without doubts (Berliner Zeitung, Jan. 2001). Many articles in
western journals have described the appalling mendacity of many
Albanians whose eyewitness accounts have been taken for granted by the
West. It is well known .now that the“EYEWITNESSES“ have been well
indoctrinated, instructed what to say by their KLA mentors. And it is
sad that the ICTY took all those fabrications as an absolute reality,
truth (similar „ideology“ of the ICTY was applied many times when
charging the alleged Serb war criminals from Bosnia). The
Albanian „eyewitnesses“ told the western media, politicians, US/NATO
authorities, and to the ICTY – and they considered that it was a truth,
that Serbs, after murdering 700 Albanians, dumped their corpses into
the shafts of Trepca mines. But a special commission of the ICTY
informed (Oct.12, 1999) that absolutely no corpses had been found there
(Kelly Moore). Other „eyewitnesses“ told the western authorities that
350 Albanians had been killed (by the Serbs, naturally) and buried in a
mass grave near Pec, at Ljubenic – only seven bodies were found, etc.
etc. In connection with the Trepca mines, a „fascinating stupidity and
arrogance“ was published in some otherwise renowned journals. The Daily
Mirror wrote (and did not apologize) :“Trepca – the name will live
alongside those of Belsen, Auschwitz and Treblinka.“, while the New
York Times, trying to give its report even more morbid authenticity,
wrote about an „unusual, pungeant, bittersweet smell.. .coming from
Trepca…“ The lies, arrogance, even a sort of stupidity of a part of
the western media, of a part of its politicians, even of a part of the
ICTY, is almost unbelievable. And a trump card more against, the ICTY -
it refused to tell the names (the identity) of those Albanians found
dead at Racak, because it would be obliged to confess that they were
the KLA men.
When the Racak frame-up started, Ms.L.Arbour pushed to Kosovo, Without
any valid Yugoslav visa, to help her US/NATO masters. But, when the
mass graves at Klecka (together with a crematorium-like facility),
Glodjani, and Volujak with many murdered Serbs, Gipsies, pro-Yugoslav
Albanians had been found (in 1998), she was silent. She was silent too,
when the KLA terrorists killed 5 Serb children at Pec, in a cafe near
their high school (Dec.14, 1998).
All those stooges who spoke so often about genocide, ethnic clean, mass
murder, perpetrated allegedly almost exclusively by one side only,
never mentioned one fact. In spring 1998, when the KLA terrorists
started their campaign of terror in Kosovo and Metohija (the western
part of Kosovo) , the Serb Ministry of Health organized and carried
out, with the help of the World Health Organization. (WHO) a mass
vaccination against poliomyelitis of 100 000 (!) children in Kosovo,
most of whom were the ^Albanian children, all of that free of charge.
Did the ICTY notice it?
A short-lived canard, supported especially by the German ministers
R.Scharping and J.Fischer, by the western media, even by the ICTY, was
the so-called HORSE-SHOE OPERATION in which the Yugoslav (Serb) army
allegedly planned and started to expel, even before the NATO bombs, the
Albanians from Kosovo. It was an absolute humbug, a baloney, exposed
e.g.,by H.Loquai, a just retired German general, well informed about
the events in the Balkans (see the already mentioned book by
J.Elsasser „The War Crimes“, 2000).
It is very strange, that the. ICTY never tried to accuse those who
planned and prepared all the tragedy in Yugoslavia. Nobody indicted Mr.
Hans-Dietrich Genscher, the German foreign minister (and a criminal
against peace No.one) who compelled at Maastrich (Dec.17, 1991) the
European Community (later Union) to recognize prematurely, and
illegally the independence of Slovenia and Croatia, followed later by
Bosnia and Herzegovina, thus provoking the start of the civil-ethnic-
religious war.
The Slovene’s were considered to be pro-Yugoslav in their attitudes,
especially during the kingdom of Yugoslavia. The victorious Serbia,
when it agreed (1918) with the creation of the Kingdom of Serbs, Croats
and Slovenes}, helped the Slovenes to maintain their national identity,
very much endangered by germanization from the north and by
italianization from the south. The university of king Alexander
Karageorgevich was the first university in Ljubljana. The activity of
H.D.Genscher, of the German government of Mr. H. Kohl created a „bloody
frontier“ between the Serbs and the Slovenes. The hatred triumphed
again…Why did the ICTY not indict the German government on charges
that it allowed (and helped) the presence of training camps of the
Albanian KLA terrorists in Germany? Nobody from the ICTY did accuse
Belgium, the Netherlands, Sweden, Switzerland, the USA, etc. ,because
they allowed the collection of money, buying of arms and uniforms, a
propaganda campaign, event training of terrorists, organized by the.
KLA? They have been the primary culprits. Did the ICTY accuse any OSCE
observers (verifiers) in Kosovo for their flagrant support of the KLA?
Officially, the ICTY is financed by the UN, but Mrs.Albright, her
spokesman Mr.Rubin, and the NATO’s spokesman (and a desinformer par
excellence) Mr.Jamie Shea, declared without any hesitation who was the
boss, who paid the bills. An American professor of political sciences
Raju Thomas wrote about it (January 2000);“NATO now dispenses justice
on all but itself and the terrorist-turned-freedom fighters KLA.
The „independent prosecutors“ and the Hague Tribunal authorized by the
Security Council are mainly American concoctions with the financial
heli of (the financial shark-turned-filantropist) George Soros and
Saudi Arabia…Ultimately the key mischief makers and hate-mongers were
to be found among the media and leaders of the US and Britain… „Too
many leading members of the „independent (sic!)“ tribunal are coming
from the NATO countries: L.Arbour from Canada, the former chief judge
Ms. Gabrielle Kirk McDonald from the USA, the judge C.Jorda is from
France, the former president of the Tribunal C.Cassese was an Italian,
etc.
During the US/NATO aggression against Yugoslavia, it looked like a
competition in the West: who could put a higher number of the dead or
missing Kosovo Albanians (the same happened during the „rape hyste- j
ria“ during 1992-93 in Bosnia). It was a sad and stupid bidding,
degrading all those who participated, including the ICTY – it never
tried to stop the humbug. Among the most noted disinformers, even liars
who played that morbid „poker“ where even hundreds of thousands of
missing and feared dead were used during the propaganda game, were in
addition to the irresponsible, journalists, reporters, editors, very
many prominent persons, e.g., president Clinton, the gang of
Mrs.Albright (J.Rubin, D. Scheffer, etc.), the defense secretary
W.Cohen, the British prime minister T.Blair and his foreign (R.Cook)
and defense (G.Rpbertson) secretaries, many members of Mr.Schroeder’s
government, especially its defense (R.’Scharping) and foreign
(J.Fischer) secretaries, some members of the French government, NATO’s
former general secretary J.Solana, general W.Clark, etc. Fortunately,
the astronomic figures used by them dropped to very modest ones. But
the hatred remained, as well as the unpunished politicians who had
fomented the tragic events in Yugoslavia.
There existed some hope that the new prosecutor general of the ICTY
Ms.Carla del Ponte, could start a more honest approach to the Kosovo
and Yugoslav problems, but, unfortunately, she continued in the same
farce as her predecessors. On June 2, 2000, she declared bluntly in the
UN Security Council that there existed no data, no justification, to
investigate the charges that NATO comitted crimes when bombing
Yugoslavia She was not interested in the crimes against the Serbs
comitted en masse by the Kosovo Albanians, after the withdrawal of
Yugoslav army (June 1999), when Kosovo was occupied by the NATO forces
(KFOR) that were not able to protect the non-Albanian population of
Kosovo.
To better understand the two main offences of the western media,
politicians, of the ICTY, the LIE and the DISINFORMATION, their
definition is here included (BBC English Dictionary, HarperCollins,
London, 1993). A LIE is something that someone says which (they know)
is untrue. DISINFORMATION is false or misleading information which has
been issued by a government or other political organization to
discredit someone or something.
Officially, the ICTY had to represent the honest, impartial and just
western judiciary. But it was just the opposite. If such a court
(tribunal) existed in any western democracy, it would be immediately
dissolved, in disgust. There are many „offences“ that make a farce out
of the ICTY:
1. it excluded from its procedures the presumption of innocence;
2. it introduced (during the era of Ms.L.Arbour) the shocking
application of „SEALED INDICTMENTS“, very similar to the „lettres de
cachet“ of the French kings;
3. many of those secretely indicted have been kidnapped by armed thugs
and transported (by force) to The Hague; those thugs even did not
hesitate to kill (the SAS men assassinated Simo Drljaca, a Serb,when
arresting him on July 10, 1997);
4. the arrested, have to wait in detention for months, even years, for
trial;
5. the Tribunal acts as both prosecutor and judge, without jury,
without any possibility of a bail;
6. most trials relied only on eyewitness accounts, some of which were
well „prepared“ by the Muslim authorities (e.g., the trial of Dusko
Tadic),
7. if the prisoner confesses while in custody, the confession is
presumed to be voluntary;
8. the accused face often unknown, even hidden accusers
9. the ICTY is very selective, almost no Muslims have been brought
before the Tribunal, and only a few Croats,
10. it was neither impartial nor independent, because it was the US
money that enabled the ICTY to carry out its operations (the
US/NATO „employee“ in the ICTY, Ms.L.Arbour,had been appointed to the
only after the approval of Mrs.):
11. the most serious charge against the ICTY is its adamant refusal to
indict NATO leaders for violating international law and the UN Charter
by waging an aggressive war against a sovereign stata without UN
approval, by bombing many civilian targets, by using prohibited
weapons, the mutilating cluster bombs, the murderous Depleted Uranium
(DU) ammunittion. (see J. Bisset „Tribunal on Trial“, The Ottawa
Citizen, Jan.30, 2001, as well).
There is probably one problem more with the ICTY, with US/NATO/EU. An
honest Tribunal, an impartial judge, politician, journalist would try
to get as many independent, unbiased informations as possible about the
case at issue, e.g., about the history in Kosovo – and not only the
half-truth, even disinformations, supplied en masse by the prejudiced
US/NATO/EU (a part of it). And, unfortunately, a „bible“ about Kosovo
(800 pages) for the West appeared recently (Noel Malcolm:KOSOVO-A short
History, London, 1998), it was one-sided, biased, prejudiced. A Serbian
academic, historina M.Ekmecic wrote about it; „It is a classical
literature of war propaganda, as it used to be called. It is written
with specific objectives for those countries or organizations that pay
for it. Because the author of that book is an intellectual hireling,
mercennarius scriba.e in Latin, that ancient epigone, philosopher only
because of his coat. Here toga speaks, not the wisdom, or the
conviction…“
The famous French philosopher, historian, poet, P.M.Voltaire(1694-1778)
did not like the Catholic Church. His slogan was ECRASEZ L’lNFAME! -
CRUSH THE SHAMELESS! He would surely use that slogan for the present
ICTY and its practices as well. He surely would not like/“US/NATO
either.
