The New World Order and (Kosovo) the Balkans in a European Union

Milosevic is a 58 years old lawyer, a former member of the Communist Party and
in 1983 director of Beobank, a major state-run bank. In 1986 he orchestrated a
putsch to take over the Communist Party and in 1989 he became president of
Serbia. In 1997 he became president of Yugoslavia, giving himself unlimited
power. He and wife, Mirjana Markovic, are extremely devoted to each other. They
have two children, daughter, Marija, 34, who runs a TV and radio station and
their son Marko, 25, who owns a disco and is also a race car enthusiast.
Ambassador Jeane Kilpatrick made the case for Clinton before Congress to
support a U.S.-NATO military action against the Serbs. She said, "I believe
that that violence in Kosovo is a direct consequence of Slobodan Milosevic's
decision to expand his powers in 1989 by revoking the statute of autonomy under
which Kosovo had been governed since 1974.

When compared to Milosevic, Kilpatrick called Tito's reign an "enlightened
communist dictatorship, preferable to the unification imposed by Milosevic."

She said it is alright to unify, "but not too much."

Kilpatrick estimates it will take THREE years to get self- government for
Kosovo. This is what she said in Congress.

She was lobbying for Resolution 42, in support of a joint US- NATO military
invasion of Yugoslavia.
Dr. Kissinger took a different position when he also spoke to Congress
regarding Resolution 42.
Kissinger said, he did "not think the issue of Kosovo is exclusively or maybe
even primarily a Milosevic problem." The problem as put by him, is that the
area is a "region of the confluence of religions, of nationalities, of empires
that have fought over almost the same issue for hundreds of years." And, he
went on to say, "it is in some ways an insoluble problem."

It is insoluble and therefore reprehensible for us to be there when NOTHING can
be accomplished by it and in spite of the suggestion that we could save lives,
bombing the hell out of them is certainly going to destroy more lives than it
could ever save. It is not unlike our bombing them "back into the stone age in
Vietnam." The cost in human lives was 58,000 American soldiers, thousands of
M.I.A.s, and over a million dead Vietnamese.

Kissinger said, "Nobody has yet challenged Kosovo as part of Serbia. And
therefore, from an international legal point of view, what is being proposed is
that NATO military forces should be introduced on the territory of a sovereign
country for the purpose of detaching a province which in the history of that
country has been the origin of its national identity, because that is where the
battle for Serbian independence started 600 years ago."
Kissinger asserted his view that it is dangerous to take this military action
against the Serbs and his precise words were:

"... I believe that the introduction of American ground forces and of NATO
military forces for that purpose is first an unprecedented extension of NATO
authority, an extraordinary assertion of international law, and a dangerous
precedent for America."

He stated that Jeane Kirpatrick overstated the Administrations case to
Congress.

The administration was saying "that the solution should be an autonomy,
safeguarded by NATO troops, within the context of a unified Serbia. Serbian
troops and police remain in the province. The KLA is supposed to be disarmed.
And a political process is supposed to start, which at the end of three years,
will allow some permanent definition of autonomy." Kissinger said that course
is "unmanageable." He said the United States will find itself in a situation
from which it will be "extraordinarily difficult to extricate ourselves."

"It is obvious that neither of the parties like the agreement as it now stands.
We are winking at the Albanians and saying, if you accept this, we will bomb
the Serbs for you. And we can't bomb the Serbs unless you accept this. So we
will have one party that was bombed into an agreement and another party which
accepted the agreement because we've become the artillery for their purposes,
and they are then under our aegis.

Supposed to manage a political process extending over a period of three years."
[Kissinger]

First of all, the KLA will not be disarmed under any conditions. That isn't
going to happen. So, what are we doing there? Forming a more _perfect_ European
UNION, of course.

"Kosovo was never an autonomous unit like these other states, and therefore it
is technically an expansion of NATO authority and of American military reach,
which is unprecedented up to now and which moreover cannot end with that
operation, which will be a continuing process under the definition of an
autonomy that will be redefined and still remain an autonomy." [Kissinger]

There is also the Russian equation. They will most certainly support the Serbs
and this will become a classic Balkan crisis of our making.

And, what about the relationship of the Kosovars towards the Macedonian
Albanains and the Albanian Albanians? Do they federate and expand this war?
Most likely they will be further polarized by our involvement.
Congressman LANTOS said he essentially agreed with Kissinger, but wasn't as
concerned because he said, "the Soviet menace is gone" and "NATO needs to
redefine its role." Lantos, like so many of Clinton's democrats takes the
position that "the Europeans can't do it themselves." Maybe we ought to just
follow the money?

And, Lantos is wrong about the Soviets. They will not be left out of this one.
We're in their neighborhood now.
And, what is the strategy? Did you follow the money? Lantos said before
Congress, it is "the European Union." He said, "At the end of the day, and it
may be a few years down the road, neither Serbia nor Croatia nor Macedonia nor
Kosovo will be able to function unless they are part of a united Europe." A
united European _multi-national, corporate union._

To reiterate, Kissinger was emphatic about it being less a Milosevic problem
and more of a historical problem."
If for "humanitarian reasons," then why not other places in the world where
there are ethnic groups who are denied autonomy, where governments are
oppressive? And, where have we drawn that line? Where is the threat to American
security or is there some other overriding concern." Follow the money.

Kissinger doesn't see an "exit strategy." There is none. It is an unworkable
solution. Kissinger said so, and it should be clear to the American public,
that once in, we're in to stay.

The initial cost estimate is $1.7 billion. How many lives?

The Serbs did not begin the civil war, but are responding to a very real
threat. The United States has repeatedly attempted the dismemberment of
Yugoslavia which has only intensified the bloodshed and the flood of refugees.
The Serbs have a living memory, which Clinton and members of this government do
not have, of Independent states set up by Hitler (Croatia and
Bosnia-Herzegovina) where half the Serbian population were massacred and as
many Jews as they could find - with the help of the Roman Catholic Church.

There was Muslim support and complicity in the slaughter and if there is any
parallel to be drawn with the Holocaust, it was the martyrdom of Serbs in
Croatia-Bosnia (1/3rd of all Serbians).

Interestingly the Germans are involved in this attack. Of not so recent memory,
but recent enough, the Croatians and the Muslims were aided and encouraged on
by Germany as Hitler made his drive to the East into the Balkans and Central
Europe. Germany is now part of the NEW World Order.

Of recent memory, Serbian refugees from Croatia and Bosnia outnumber Croation
and Muslim refugees combined. The media ignored and still ignores their plight.


Some interesting quotes:

"There can be no peace or coexistence between Islamic faith and non-Islamic
faith and institutions... The Islamic movement must and can take power as soon
as it is morally and numerically strong enough, not only to destroy the
non-Islamic power, but to build up a new Islamic one...: This was stated by
Bosnian President Alija Izetbegovic from his book "Muslim Declaration"

"Genocide is a natural phenomenon, in harmony with the societal and
mythologically divine nature. Genocide is not only permitted, it is also
recommended, even commanded by the word of the Almighty, whenever it is useful
for the survival or the restoration of the kingdom of the chosen nation, or for
the preservation and spreading of its one and only correct faith." Croatian
President Franjo Tudjman from his Wastelands of Historical Reality.

"A lie that is repeated frequently becomes the truth", said the Nazi propaganda
expert Josef Goebbels. Many people believe that our democratic society would
never allow Goebbels style propaganda. Yet the media reports from former
Yugoslavia prove just the opposite. Here are five examples of media lies which
gained credibility through frequent repetition. The Globe and Mail, Saturday,
October 17, 1992

THE MEDIA HAS BEEN ANTI-SERB

Follow the money..The money in this case comes from the Vatican, from Germany
and from the Islamic World.
Public Relations Firms were hired by the Muslims. Remember Rudder Finn and Hill
& Knowlton? They were responsible for the fake story about Iraqi solders
killing incubator babies in Kuwait. And, that was the influence which got us
into that war.

No wonder Milocevic does not trust the foreign press. He never got a fair shake
from them.

The Armenians did not want to negotiate in Kosovo. They never did. A phoney
story about a massacre is broadcasted around the globe and that is the pretext
for bombing the serbs.

Jona Hoey in The Nation, January 30, 1995 p.130-132

"What are we to make of U.S. policy in Bosnia? One minute Washington is sending
fighter planes to bomb the Bosnian Serbs, the next minute it is sending peace
envoys to negotiate cease-fires with them."

"Washington started out in 1991 by supporting the unity of Yugoslavia and
opposing the secessionist republics. By early 1992, the United States was
supporting the secessionist republic of Bosnia. In early 1993, the Clinton
Administration began by supporting the Vance-Owen plan for the cantonization of
Bosnia, but then changed its mind and brought about the collapse of the plan.
Later in 1993, Washington accepted the Owen-Stoltenberg plan for the three-way
partition of Bosnia, a virtual duplicate of the three-way partition plan the
Bush Administration had urged Sarajevo to reject in 1992, then rejected it,
then accepted it, then rejected it again. Also in 1993, the United States
adopted its "lift and strike" policy (i.e., lifting the arms embargo on the
Bosnian government and launching airstrikes against the Serbs), then abandoned
this and began to characterize the Bosnian war as a civil rather than an
international conflict, then returned to lift and strike. In 1994, Washington
continued to blow hot and cold about lift and strike, changing its mind from
one month and even one week to the next, blowing with the winds of
Realpolitik."

Joan goes on to say in that 1995 article, "Just about the only thing that has
been consistent in the U.S. approach to Yugoslavia is a determination to
bolster America's authority at the expense of its rivals. Thus the initial
pro-Yugoslav policy in 1991 was an attempt to slow down the dissolution of the
cold war order upon which America's ascendancy depended. America's about-face
in 1992, when it led the campaign for an independent Bosnia, had nothing to do
with higher principle; it was a maneuver to usurp the leadership role in
Yugoslavia from Germany. Washington's pursuit of the lift and strike policy
through 1993 and 1994 was aimed at presenting the Europeans as appeasers and
the Americans as decisive leaders and defenders of a besieged multi-ethnic
democracy."

Milosevic is not so difficult to understand. His is a reaction to the press and
U.S. policy, what seemed like an abandonment of a formal claim to a Greater
Serbia, while in fact never really abandoning that goal. It has been political
maneuvering. And, the bombing now taking place is pushing Milosevic to the
brink of a war we will not be able to extricate ourselves from.

Typical of the false media, in 1994-95, in Sarajevo, Bosnia. Muslim troops
fired at their own people, in a propaganda ploy to win world sympathy and draw
military intervention.

"Last August, American pilots became the desperate Bosnian government's
surrogate air force. What triggered the NATO bombing campaign against the
Bosnian Serbs was a U.S. Army officer's bogus report that a Serb mortar attack
had killed 38 people.[...] Have the American people been tricked again? CIA
spooks and several NATO officers plus a squad of U.N. ammo experts say so. All
report that the mortar round that kicked off the NATO bombing was fired not by
the Serbs, but by Bosnian Muslims."

"RUSES THAT PROMPT ATTACKS AS OLD A TRICK AS WAR ITSELF" Editorial from
Sun-Sentinel (Ft. Lauderdale),
Nov. 23, 1995 by David H. Hackworth, retired U.S. Army colonel and America's
most decorated living veteran.

"Officials of the US Congress and members of the intelligence service in Great
Britain are also aware of a firm agreement between the US officials and
Izetbegovic's people in Bosnia for staging of a casus belli for the recent
bombing, most serious since the beginning of the war. Once again the Sarajevo
administration planted explosive on the city market, and when it was detonated
resulting in the loss of many lives, the Bosnian Serbs were accused of
"shelling" innocent civilians. The US intelligence officers stated for this
journal that the radar had failed to register the missile (although it was on).
Collateral damage did not match that which would have been caused by a shell.
As proved and noted by UN observers after the previous "mortar attack on the
market" it was clear that this again was the case of an explosive charge placed
in advance by Izetbegovic's men in order to sacrifice their own citizens only
to put a blame on the Bosnian Serbs on the very eve of the important peace
negotiations."

"JOINT US-MUSLIM WAR AGAINST THE SERBS - U.N. AS A U.S. PUPPET" Strategic
Policy, London, July-Aug. 1995, No. 7-8, by Gregory Copley

"America has not been so pathetically deceived since Robert McNamara helped to
micromanage and escalate the Vietnam War."

"The constant sniping incidents deserve equal scrutiny. Objective observers in
Sarajevo frequently describe the abhorrent activity of snipers from both sides,
but suspicions persist that the Muslims have murdered their own people when the
potential existed for instant newsworthiness. Photographers have done nothing
to abate this horror by their vulture-like waiting at areas vulnerable to
sniping. In fact, the Bosnian government encourages this wrongheaded activity
in the belief that such publicity aids its cause."

"SELLING THE BOSNIAN MYTH TO AMERICA: BUYER BEWARE" The Foreign Military
Studies Office, October 1995, by Lt. Colonel John Sray, a U.S. Army Military
Intelligence and Russian Foreign Area Officer who served a six-month tour in
Sarajevo as Chief of the G-2 section for the UN command in Bosnia

"Some of the city's suffering has actually been imposed on it by actions of the
Sarajevo government. [...] Government soldiers, for example, have shelled the
Sarajevo airport,the city's primary lifeline for relief supplies. The press and
some governments, including that of the United States, usually attribute all
such fire to the Serbs, but no seasoned observer in Sarajevo doubts for a
moment that Muslim forces have found it in their interest to shell friendly
targets."

"MAKING PEACE WITH THE GUILTY: THE TRUTH ABOUT BOSNIA" Foreign Affairs,
Sept/Oct 1995, by General Charles G. Boyd, Deputy Commander-in-Chief of the
U.S. European Command.

"The crucial UN report on the market massacre is classified secret, but four
specialists--a Russian, a Canadian and two Americans--have raised serious
doubts about its conclusion, suggesting instead that the mortar was fired not
by the Serbs but by Bosnian government forces.

"BOSNIA'S BOMBERS" The Nation, Oct. 2, 1995, by David Binder, The New Tork
Times editor and Balkan specialist.

"[...] Those around general Rose have never concealed the fact that, at this
meeting, he told the Muslim leaders that he had just received technical
information indicating that the [February 1994 Markale] grenade had not come
from the Serb controlled area, but from the Muslim part of the town.[...]

"ROSE BLACKMAILS IZETBEGOVIC" >From Balkan Odyssey (New York: Harcourt Brace &
Company, 1996.) by Lord David Owen, former British Foreign Secretary and
ex-Chief EU negotiator in Bosnia.

"For the first time, a senior U.N. official has admitted the existence of a
secret U.N. report that blames the Bosnian Moslems for the February 1994
massacre of Moslems at a Sarajevo market.
Yasushi Akashi, the Undersecretary-General for Humanitarian Affairs and the
former head of the U.N. mission in Bosnia, told the German Press Agency DPA
that the secret report is 'no secret'. [...] "

"AKASHI INTERVIEW" >From U.S. press relay of Deutsche Presse-Agentur news
bulletin, June.
And, once again there is this constant stream of false accusations and
propaganda spewing from out of Washington to demonize Milosevic and sanitize
the use of NATO forces to bring down more death and destruction on the Serbs.
It was Iraq but now it is the Serbs in Yugoslavia that are being vilified.
Yugoslavia, intact is a strong military force in the region. It is anathama to
have a unified Yugoslavia in a united European union. A splintered, weakened,
defeated Yugoslavia could be controlled by the big powers, a strong Milosevic
Serb could not.

Stop the bloody war now! Stop the death and destruction being carried out in
our name. We want no part of it.
