PHRASES THAT HAVE BEEN OFTEN USED BY WEST MEDIA AND POLITICIANS

* ETHNIC CLEANSING * REFUGEES * HUMANITARIAN CRISES * BUTHERS OF BALKAN * ...JUST DOING THEIR JOBS *
* HUMAN SHIELDS * ISOLATED INCIDENT *

These phrases are being often abused by Western politicians and media. They are being used to justify military action on my country - YUGOSLAVIA. See what's behind those words...


ISOLATED INCIDENT new
NATO officials say that Chinese Embassy was isolated incident...
So thay said about Aleksinac, Tornik, train at Surdulica, refugee convoy, Prishtina, bus at Luzane and Savine Vode, Surdulica, Nis, center of Belgrade, Cacak, ...


HUMAN SHIELDS  new
Lately, we can hear a lot about Serbs using ethnic Albanians as human shields to protect military installations in Kosovo. Could this really be true? Go back and remember what Nato used as an excuse for hitting a refugee convoy near Prizren. The pilot confused tractors for army vehicles. If a pilot can’t make a difference between two vehicles, could anyone believe he could distinguish a Serbian soldier from ethnicAlbanian? Would Serbian forces waste their time placing human shields at places that would be targeted anyway? I don’t think so!
(Bilja Z.)
I would also add that West media often use this phrase when they don't have refugees crossing border. Then they are HUMAN SHIELDS, but if they are let out of Kosovo then we are accused for ETHNIC CLEANSING.


ETHNIC CLEANSING
Serbs were on constant oppression by Albanians on Kosovo, they were killed during and after WW2 down there
Serbs were accused for ethnic cleansing in Croatia, yet there are no Serb left there
Serbs were accused for ethnic cleansing in Bosnia, where all sides we doing the same thing, and only Serbs were punished.
And irony is when mentioned ethnic cleansing everybody say SERBS...
There is now an ethnically pure Greater Croatia. There are almost 900,000 Serbian refugees ethnically cleansed from Croatia and the (Bosnian) federation - 300,000 in Republika Srpska, and 600,000 in Serbia.
This is more than any other ethnic group. Croatia conducted the largest single ethnic cleansing of the war with American military support.
 US Ambassador to Zagreb has said on CHANNEL 4 NEWS in an interview that it wasn't a case of 'ethnic cleansing' since
"...only Serbs are doing that. They've left Krajina on their own free will". (NO COMMENT)

Article from NY Times, 11/1/87
The history of Kosovo since World War II is MAINLY the history of a fascistic group (which evolved into the KLA,with Western help) oppressing Serbs, which was widely reported in the press before the media campaign against the Serbs was launched.
Here is a quote from the NY Times in 1987 - note they are talking about terror directed against the SERBS:
"Slavic Orthodox churches have been attacked, and flags have been torn down.  Wells have been poisoned and crops burned.
Slavic boys have been knifed, and some young ethnic Albanians have been told by their elders to rape Serbian girls....
"The goal of the radical nationalists among them, one said in an interview, is an ''ethnic Albania that includes western Macedonia , southern Montenegro, part of southern Serbia, Kosovo and Albania itself.'' That includes large chunks of the republics that make up the southern half of Yugoslavia.
Other ethnic Albanian separatists admit to a vision of a greater Albania governed from Pristina in southern Yugoslavia rather than Tirana, the capital of neighboring Albania. "

REFUGEES
During summer 1995, 300.000 Serb left Croatia, when Croatian army attacked them.
They created 400 km long line moving toward Serbia. They were shoot at by guns and cannons... they packed whole their life in just one bag and left in hurry..
Nobody helped them, nobody cared about them, nobody listened to their stories...although UN was obligated to protect them..
That's 3-6 times bigger number of refugees then now in Kosovo (Sky news said are about 50.000 - x Albanian refugees).

I'm not saying that there are no refugees on Kosovo. There are refuges... but both Albanian and Serbian
But this is all to blame on bombing, NATO tries to avoid it by planting to us. There were no refugees (in this number) before bombing started. That is the problem...NATO angered the Serbs and encouraged KLA, and that intensified conflict
Imagine this situation
You are person caught in war. There are serbian police and military fighting against KLA (paramilitary organization), KLA members trying to recruit you for their cause, NATO bombing everything that moves down there. What do you do:
a) try to stay loyal to Serbia (KLA will kill you)
b) join KLA (police will kill you)
c) hide in shelters, if any (you risk to get hit by NATO bombers, killed or recruted by KLA)
d) run away to nearest country and wait for things to calm down
e) __________
Do you get my point?

HUMANITARIAN CRISES
Ask yourselves, was Humanitarian Crises bigger now or before NATO's action ,as they say "as Good Samaritanian", started?
There are a lot of refugees on both sides, there are a lot of peolpe in shelters, houses destroyed, factories destroyed, ...
If it's all about Humanitarian crises, why are now this refugees without roof, food, medicines, ....
West media showed just one tented city for only 3000 refugees, Great Britain sent 500.000 meals. OK it's a huge number.. hmm half milion ... but if you divide this number by 3 (3 meals per day) and then when you divide it with number of refugees you come to number that this is only going to last for 2 days. Big help...
I think West did not prepared themselves for solving Humanitarian crises but for something else...
Think how much money West spent on bombs, airplanes, cruise missales, ....

 BUTCHERS OF BALKAN
Butcher of Balkans We Serb are called "Butchers of Balkans". The one who said that probably does not know this: 
Serbs were over 500 years under Ottoman's empire. You can read what they did to us in our novel which won NOBEL Prize for literature. It's called "Bridge over Drina" by Ivo Andric. 
In WW1 Serbia lost 1/3 of their population as ally nation. 
In WW2 Yugoslavia lost 1.700.000 people , and 700.000 Serbs, Gypsies and Jews were killed in just one Croatian camp "JASENOVAC" !!!. The way they died was disturbing even for the German in that time. 

Yet another irony... people who have suffered so much in their history, now are being called "Butchers of Balkans" 

He is a picture of one "Butcher ...." with her target on anti -war demonstrations in Center of  Belgrade

... THEY ARE JUST DOING THEIR JOBS
Well , whose JOB is to go destroying other people's country, their citizens, their cultural and economic goods. This can not justify their actions. Their JOB is to defend their countries when attacked, not this. They are quilty as much as theirs leaders.
If you go by this "logic" German soldiers were just doing their jobs... My brother and I are also Polish by our mother's side, great part of  our polish people died because of theirs "just doing jobs"

There is one true story from WW2 when one German soldiers refused to shoot down some innocent civilians. His commander shoot him dead all along with this people ... he refused to do this dirty job ... Serbian people will never forget this soldier
