Subject: Letter of Diaspora Serbs to President Milosevic
(handed after the Vidovdan - June 28 demonstrations
at The Hague)
To the President of the Federal Republic of
Yugoslavia, Mr Slobodan Milosevic
Dear Mr
President,
As citizens and nationals of leading Nato member countries in
Europe, that have participated in the Aggression on the Federal Republic of
Yugoslavia, we are deeply aware of the fact that your name has been used in
the Western Media far more frequently than the names of all other leaders in
the Balkans taken together. At critical times during the past decade, your
name has been used globally more often than even the name of the American
president, a very rare situation to occur for any statesman in Europe.
We have noticed, however, that the name "Milosevic" most frequently did
not refer to your own person.
We became particularly aware that,
during the military Aggression on the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia, all
leading media outlets in Nato states claimed that Nato was bombing neither
Yugoslavia, nor Serbia, nor the people inside them but exclusively you
personally. And yet some 23,000 tons of Nato bombs were dropped not on you
personally, but on the territory and the people of the Federal Republic of
Yugoslavia.
We noticed that on millions of occasions it was claimed that
sanctions, from which tens of thousands of children and old people in our
country of origin lost their lives, were allegedly directed solely against a
person with the name "Milosevic".
It is because of this that we are
fully aware that all the victims of Nato Aggression are linked to your
name.
And we are especially aware that by accusing you personally as a
"war criminal", the Nato Aggressor, who is simultaneously also the owner of
the so-called Tribunal that keeps you imprisoned, aims to prove that he
only acted against a "criminal".
It is a fact that the continuous and
massive use, more correctly misuse, of your name has had its results with the
citizens of Nato states as well as with our own Diaspora where many accepted
the disinformation of Nato-media propaganda machines, such as those of the
American CNN, the British BBC, the German ZDF, the French TF1 and others. Our
aim is therefore to continue to act in our own environments to highlight the
stark truth that it is via your name that accusations are being levelled
against the state, the republic, the nation and inevitably and most
cynically, against all the victims of the economic, financial, cultural and
finally military aggression.
The so-called Tribunal fraudulently presents
itself as the source for truth and justice for the territory of a European
country against which its master in Washington has conducted the first
aggressive war in Europe since 1945. It is because of this that every
appearance by yourself, despite taking place in front of an illegitimate
body, despite this being before your kidnappers, is of great historical
importance for the interpretation of events of the past decade's events in
The Balkans.
Many amongst us including our German, French, British,
Dutch, Italian as well as other European and American colleagues judge your
appearances to be exceptionally penetrating and of the highest quality.
According to many of us you have already won your case against the so-called
Tribunal via a K.O. on your very first appearance on 14th February 2002. The
Nato-British judge Mr May allowed the process against you to continue, and to
the surprise of many in the world, you repeated your performance of the first
day. Something that you have continually done since. So far you have on
almost every occasion managed to get your accusers and their witnesses into a
losing position for the prosecution. All this despite the fact that the
prosecuting team had time to prepare itself for three years and had over 70
paid staff at its disposal. By contrast even the most elementary conditions
for presenting your case have been denied to you and even your microphone
has frequently been cut-off by the so-called judge, usually in order to save
the prosecution from further embarrassment.
We want to sincerely
congratulate you on your outstanding courage and the dignity with which you
have presented your case. Of this we have numerous confirmations from
internationally known experts and personalities, some of whom have specially
travelled to The Hague to be with us today, both as speakers and
participants.
Thanks to your appearances, we in the Diaspora can more
clearly evaluate the historical events connected to our erstwhile homeland,
and our position is clear. You, as well as others accused on the Serbian and
Yugoslav side, are guilty because you remained loyal to the state to which
you gave your oath and allegiance. Your guilt is known to us from the near
and distant history of the Balkan peoples:
Guilty because you stood up
to the foreign aggressor in the defence of country and people!
We
would like to ask you to extend our greetings to all other prisoners,
and especially to the President of the Republika Srpska Krajina, Mr Milan
Martic as well as to the President of the Republika Srpska, Mr Momcilo
Krajisnik.
