Dear Jared,
I respect your work very much, as I have told you this several times. We,
from "Resistance web site",are publishing , with your kind permission many
of your articles, or articles coming from your site.
So, please read this as a friendly suggestion:
Milosevic is a criminal. Big time. I am living under his yoke, witnessing
his crimes everyday. He is a little ruthless dictator, with a mad wife, with
two idiotic kids. He is privatizing everything, he has organized a perfect
cleptocracy for his family and his oligarchy, he had killed almost all of
the opposition press ( it's low quality notwithstanding, we are talking
about freedom of thought and expression); he have stolen the elections in
1996; his thugs are beating up kids in the middle of the day, his assassins
are killing or kidnapping people ( Ivan Stambolic is the most recent
example) - the list of his crimes in internal politics is endless. And, with
regards to his external politics, people form all over the world, good
people , are deceived with his leftist-anti imperialist mask: he is not a
leftist. He is haunting leftist, authentic radicals, in his own country. His
party is the richest party on this side of Colorado river. He is using every
opportunity, and every emotion, to preserve power and to stay on power.
Yugoslavia is a wonderful country. Yugoslav people deserve help and
protection from "antiserb racism" which we are all witnesses of. We should
fight back this idea of collective crime which is casted upon us.
But Yugoslavia is not Milosevic. Fighting against imperialism, injustices
made to Yugoslavs, new wars which Imperial States of AmeriKKKa are
instigating on this soil, slowly but very skillfully, is possible without
attachment to Milosevic. He doesn't deserve it. I guess that my word isn't
enough, but please just acknowledge that I am an insider, radical leftist
and a person who suffered a lot under foreign imperialism and under
Milosevic. I think that this opportunity gives me a chance to be as
objective as one could be , in complex situation like this.
With regards to Chomsky, contrary to what you may believe, his books helped
radical leftist here to make a clearer picture about the nature of state
violence, nature of AmeriKKKan foreign politics, European Imperialism,
shaping of the mental images and representations, and to offer this picture
to the people here, with much success. Chomsky helped us a lot. His mistakes
notwithstanding. He made good deal of mistakes, yes. But who of us, involved
in a fight for social change, for a better and healthier society, didn't?
With respect, in solidarity,
Andrej Grubacic
