national news UN PROBES NATO BOMBING CAMPAIGN The UN chief war crimes prosecutor is reviewing the conduct of Nato pilots and their commanders during the bombing campaign against Yugoslavia. A report of the Yugoslav tribunal's investigation on the air strikes carried out by the alliance landed on prosecutor Carla Del Ponte's desk in The Hague last week, said her spokesman, Paul Risley. It was compiled by her staff at the urging of several "interested parties," including a group of Russian parliamentarians and a Canadian law professor, Risley said. The war crimes tribunal, set up in 1993 by the UN Security Council, cannot indict governments or international organisations. But if Del Ponte chooses to press charges against any individual as a result of the report, it would be a landmark in global justice - and a highly controversial one. Never has a Western leader or military figure been hauled before an international tribunal. Nato launched the bombing campaign in March to force Yugoslav President Slobodan Milosevic to halt his crackdown against ethnic Albanians in the rebellious southern province of Kosovo. The contents of the tribunal's report are confidential. However, Nato has been criticised for civilian deaths in what it has described as mishaps, including the bombing of the Chinese Embassy in Belgrade and a strike against a railroad bridge as a passenger train was crossing it. Nato spokesman Jamie Shea refused to comment on the investigation, saying the organisation has not been formally notified of it.

It is naive to belive that Ameracns will alowe any of the members of the Nato involved in war against Yugoslavia to be charged with crime not alone brought to trial. One of the reason is that thise crimes were comited agains Yugoslavia, a state blaklisted as rogue whose leader is branded a criminal. Americans are careful in this. First they anleash the media with dayly misinformationa and fabrications until the intended victim is demoralized without friends or support. Then they can do what they want without feer of reprizial. No Nato will not be brought to justice. That was the first thing they ensured before they destroyed Yugoslavia. * Sent from RemarQ http://www.remarq.com The Internet's Discussion Network * The fastest and easiest way to search and participate in Usenet - Free!

You obviously have taken a side in this war. I have lately read a few history books of Balkan history. All of them put me on the Nato side. I would like you to give me a few references to history books which would make me change view. dad <rlazicNOrlSPAM@home.com.invalid> wrote in message news:0f5b83e7.ca61b47d@usw-ex0107-049.remarq.com... > In article <0ec4c663.709cb81a@usw-ex0102-011.remarq.com>, hector > <babydriver3NObaSPAM@postmaster.co.uk.invalid> wrote: > > national news > > UN PROBES NATO BOMBING CAMPAIGN > > The UN chief war crimes prosecutor is reviewing the conduct of Nato > > pilots and their commanders during the bombing campaign against > > Yugoslavia. > > A report of the Yugoslav tribunal's investigation on the air > > strikes > > carried out by the alliance landed on prosecutor Carla Del Ponte's > > desk > > in The Hague last week, said her spokesman, Paul Risley. > > It was compiled by her staff at the urging of several "interested > > parties," including a group of Russian parliamentarians and a > > Canadian > > law professor, Risley said. > > The war crimes tribunal, set up in 1993 by the UN Security Council, > > cannot indict governments or international organisations. > > But if Del Ponte chooses to press charges against any individual > > as a > > result of the report, it would be a landmark in global justice - > > and a > > highly controversial one. > > Never has a Western leader or military figure been hauled before an > > international tribunal. > > Nato launched the bombing campaign in March to force Yugoslav > > President > > Slobodan Milosevic to halt his crackdown against ethnic Albanians > > in > > the rebellious southern province of Kosovo. > > The contents of the tribunal's report are confidential.

I am Serbian, born in Yugoslavia( Serbija) not far from Kosovo border. As Serbian I have taken Serbian side in the war as the Albanians have taken Albanian side, which I understand and do not blame them. What I don't understand is their fanatical belif that Kosovo ( and now part of Serbia proper) is theirs and only theirs by the fact that ther are more of them. What they say is, there are more of us, we want it therefor it is ours. The fact that only 50 years ago Serbians were majority in Kosovo is irelevent to them and to the internation comunity. I have lived in closse proximity and with them. My personal experience was thet even thought it is serbia and we are Serbs the Albanians had greater freedom than the serbs. These are some of the facts I remeber as a young man. 1. No Serb was alowed to own a fire arm of any kind. Ony in the 60's serbs were alowed to own hunting guns. Yet, all Albanians and I mean all Albanians owned guns openly. 2. All serbs hade to pay taxes as does most everyone on the plant. If we did not pay taxes often their live stok and land was reposes to pay the taxes. At the same time albanian did not pay any taxes. 3. Albanians were allowed to have more than one wife. In fact 40% of Albanians had 2 to 3 wifes. Thise was strictly prohibited to the Serbs. The laws I mentioned above were placed in place for all citizens of Yogoslavia, be they Serbs, Croats, or Albanians. Yet the Albanians simply ignored them. What is worse the low makers and judiciary system of Kosovo overlooked them when applied to the Albanians. One of the problems in reaching the true picture of Yougoslavi, Serbia or Kosovo is the fact that up to few yeras ago no one cared about them or bothered to read books on history or social life of the region. Now any reading material, books and artikles available are for propaganda purposes writen by people and government in the way to justify their actions. As usual the more money you have to spend on propaganda and misinformation and the more ways you have to spred it will win at the end. As someone sade "tell a liy 10 times and it becomes a truth". I apologize that I could not name any books for you to read. I heard a new book just came out. I am traing to get. It is writen by Scot Taylor and is called "Inat" ( meaning stubornes. I dont know what it is about. Please, remember most of the books or material you read are writen on request of the west or have been aproved by the west. I douth you will find much of the trought in them. * Sent from RemarQ http://www.remarq.com The Internet's Discussion Network * The fastest and easiest way to search and participate in Usenet - Free!

If you will understand today, you have to know the history. It is a bit amazing that you claim that the history books I have read is propaganda. I will not deny that the west is(was) using propaganda, but we do not have any censorship. All the history books I read was old, and they ended after second world war. The items you listed in point 1 to 3 may be right, but it certainly did not give you any historical rights to the country. If you go back in history, and list the times Kosovo was part of Serbia (not Yugoslavia), you will be surprised. > March 27/2000 > > Yes you are correct, I have taken sides.
