[Emperor's Clothes]
In the aftermath of the death of
Milosevic, the media is rehashing all the old charges
against him - which in effect means, against the Serbian
people. Emperor's Clothes has published many articles
refuting media misinformation about the Serbs and
Yugoslavia. Some of the most important are collected in:
The
Break-up of Yugoslavia: Who did what, and to whom?
Regarding the death of Milosevic,
here are my immediate
comments: Milosevic's death while incarcerated at The Hague
- like the deaths of other Serbs before him - is at minimum
an outrage. He asked for, and Russia agreed to provide,
first rate care for his serious heart condition. The Hague
Tribunal demanded special guarantees; the Russian government
provided them. Nevertheless, the request was denied,
apparently without explanation. Milosevic's lawyer, Mr.
Tomanovic, states that Milosevic wrote to the Russian
Embassy in The Hague, charging that he was being given
dangerous medicines. Even apart from this charge, the denial
of medical care constitutes in itself foul play. And The
Hague has also denied Milosevic's family's demand that an
autopsy be conducted in Russia. Why?
How can a UN organization justify denying medical care to a
prisoner, indeed to an elected head of state? Not to
mention to the accused in what was billed as the trial of
the century? How, even if he had been guilty as charged? But
he was not guilty of war crimes. Despite the media hype,
Milosevic was not a war criminal. And despite some of his
rhetoric at The Hague, he was also not a heroic opponent of
NATO. In truth, he was an appeaser who tried to curry
favor with the West while sometimes talking tough, to the
despair of the ordinary people whom he regularly setup and
betrayed. The fact that, despite this, The Hague Tribunal,
the
proclaimed tool of NATO, seized him without concern for
mere legality, put him on trial in its bizarrely biased
'court,' and finally killed him, at the very least through
criminal negligence,
says much about the character of the leaders of the
International Community who sponsored the resurgent
Croatian, Moslem and Albanian fascists who wrecked havoc on
Yugoslavia, followed by massive NATO bombing.
