ADVICE TO KOSTUNICA: RESIST CARLA'S CHARMS
Carla del
Ponte should be shunned by all right thinking people, particularly
in
Belgrade, says William Spring, CANA Director.
'Many years ago a
distinguished journalist said to me: "my dear boy,
everything is
permissible, except bringing the law into disrepute."
The comment,
thrown out almost inconsequentially, while he, & we,
(his
acolytes),were engaged in the obligatory muddy walk around
Robertsbridge
has remained graven in my memory.
He made the remark
in relation to the Nuremberg Trials & I'm sure if
Malcolm Muggeridge
were alive today he would feel the same sentiments at the
obscene spectacle
of the quasi- judicial tart, Carla del Ponte hawking her
wares all around
Middle Europe.
What does she want to go there for? She's already had
Jamie Shea, (in a
linen cupboard @ The Hague), & Cook, or Cook's had
her, (ugh!),
she's even had the irresistible Albright.
Who else can
she impress with her forensic charms?
Why does she so desperately want
to be introduced to Vojislav Kostunica?
What exactly is she offering
the Serbian people? A fair trial for Milosevic?
Evidently not. No trial
at the International Criminal Tribunal for The
Former Yugoslavia (ICTFY)
can be fair: such a concept is alien to a Court
funded by Soros & the
CIA, offering the very best in kinky so called
justice,
(secret
indictments/masked witnesses / headless judges
& ku klux klan style
institutionally racist inquisitorial prosecutors).
Could Carla del
Ponte ever offer to hand over for trial before the Yugoslav
Courts, the
NATO leaders?
Obviously not. And the point is there are indictments in
Serbia against all
the NATO leaders.
No discussion therefore should be
held with Ponte about anything until first
all the NATO leaders surrender
for trial in Belgrade.
CANA requested that she commence proceedings
against the western leaders
responsible
for the March 99 NATO bombing of
the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia.
She refused, as she, & her
predecessor Ms Arbour, refused many other
requests of a similar character
from human rights
groups & jurists world-wide.
Her sudden
discovery now that we might have a case after all; when so many
people are
dying of leukemia, & the DU scandal cannot be hidden any longer,
tells
us volumes about
her cynical approach to her supposed duties.
The
ICTFY was never set up to try War Crimes, but to persecute the
Serbs.
They are & have become sacrificial victims to expiate the
failure of
US/British & French policy
which has handed hegemony of
the Balkans to the new German Reich.
CANA welcomes the decision of Mr
Kostunica not to meet Carla del Ponte in
Belgrade; we trust that in
difficult conditions he finds a way to maintain
the integrity of the
Yugoslav constitutional process, & to remind the world,
when he has
the
opportunity, (perhaps with Tim Sebastian on Hard Talk due to be
screened on
BBC 24 Hours 18th January) who the real aggressors are &
were.
'Yugoslavia's crime in the eyes of the West was one & only
one: it did not
have a
nuclear weapon. Only for that reason was it an
appropriate target for a
humanitarian war.'
WILLIAM SPRING ADDS THIS
FURTHER COMMENT REGARDING THE
DEATH OF AUBERON WAUGH:
Today a great
sadness has afflicted us, a sense of loss for someone I can't
say I ever
really knew, except very indirectly, having come into
contact with Auberon
Waugh through the ICBH, (Institute of Contemporary
British
History)
which sponsors lectures & seminars etc at the University of
London
Senate House
(Local History Room) & I had corresponded with
him about CANA & other
issues.
He knew about CANA & CJPY
& was very sympathetic to us, & our aims.
Every fortnight or so
since Blair's War he'd used his column in The Daily
Telegraph to tell Blair
what a dishonest & beastly idiot he is.
His father Evelyn Waugh,
apart from being, (with George Orwell), the
most distinguished English
novelist of the twentieth century, during the
second world war was
parachuted into Yugoslavia, together with Randolph
Churchill, son of the
British Prime Minister.
Evelyn Waugh's gift was bequeathed to his son,
& his political opinions (at
least in terms of support
for the
Yugoslav state, our former allies, who made common cause with us
against
Hitler,
before America even entered the war.)
Auberon Waugh's death
at 61 is a profound loss: but the mantle of Elijah
has already fallen upon
Elisha;
& his friend columnist A N Wilson will continue to defend
Serbia &
international law, and the acerbic,
only occasionally
misanthropic satirical tradition of English journalism,
(of Swift,
Chesterton, Muggeridge,
Orwell, & the Waughs, a literary craft but
vaguely understood, or not at
all, by most of our serious
minded
American cousins.)
>From CANA we send our our condolences
to the family of Auberon Waugh.
