MASSIVE PROTESTS IN SUPPORT OF YUGOSLAVIA IN UNITED STATES

"NATO has committed the worst war crime in Yugoslavia, 
killing civilians, waging all-out  war aimed at destroying 
the entire country," the U.S. anti-war movement International 
Action center President Ramsey Clark said at massive anti-NATO
demonstrations in Washington on Saturday.

About 15,000 people took part in the demonstrations, 
confirmed the organizer, the center for mobilization against 
the NATO aggression on Yugoslavia. The center rallied several 
hundred peace organizations and associations from all over 
the United States.

Two protests were organized - one in Washington outside the 
Pentagon, and another in San Francisco, which rallied 12,000 
demonstrators.

Clark, among the first to address the protest rally, 
strongly condemned the U.S. administration, accusing it of 
genocide and crimes against Yugoslavia and the entire 
Yugoslav people.

"NATO must disappear from the face of the earth," 
Clark said, describing the alliance as one of the most 
dangerous bodies which threaten the survival of mankind.

"NATO has rallied former colonial powers that 
destroyed entire countries throughout Asia and Africa. 
Now these colonial powers have raised their ugly heads 
and are trying to change the map of the world yet again, 
redraw borders, annul sovereignty of countries, divide 
among themselves natural resources which belong to 
others," Clark said.
