Milosevic Trial a Trash!
(summary)
By Professor Bhim Singh
Trial of the former President of Yugoslavia, Mr. Slobodan Milosevic, in Hague by the so-called International Criminal Tribunal for former Yugoslavia established by the Security Council is a farce and an absolute fraud on the jurisprudence on Human Rights. The so-called Tribunal was constituted by the five Permanent Members of the Security Council, two of them were tamed namely Russia and China in the name of delivering justice to the people of former Yugoslavia. Yugoslavia like USSR faced the axe of the New World Order ordained by senior Bush resulting into demolition of the USSR and Yugoslavia. Russia and China were exploited by USSR for being economically poor riddled with financial crisis within their respective countries. The CIA game plan was implemented with the destruction of USSR. The USA became the sole surviving power in the world. The USA with its aim to capture Arab oils, strategic waters and lands was given effect by invading Iraq and creating a situation in that region which enabled Americans to demolish one of the greatest civilizations of the world in Iraq. Saddam Hussein is in some unknown prison and the American soldiers fun the affairs of Iraq shamelessly and recklessly.
Yugoslavia earned the wrath of Anglo-American axis when President Titto chose to opt for Non-Aligned status and refused to become party to either of the blocks in Europe. The Balkan region was very strategic and important for the Americans. They waited for decades to create a situation that would help them create fire in Yugoslavia and they did it ultimately. Yugoslavia was fragmented into several parts and its leadership was demonized. When Milosevic rose with his towering voice in defence of the Serbian people and national sovereignty he became target for the Americans. In 1999 Yugoslavia faced most inhuman bombing for 78 days resulting into death and destruction of its people and property. Milosevic was declared elected to the office of President again. The Americans spent nearly one billion dollars to wage a war against him. Americans created so-called KLA (Kosovo Liberation Army) to create international terror in Serbia. The USA used KLA to sabotage unity of Serbia. It was the most successful leadership of Milosevic that kept Kosovo intact with Serbia. The Americans have not given up their plot to separate Montenegro from its Federation with Serbia. This is most shameful act in the arena of international law that Mr. Milosevic is being tried for acts of commission and omission allegedly committed during his presidentship in Kosovo which was an undisputed district of Serbia. How the so-called Tribunal in Hague can try President Milosevic for those acts. Shall it been that an Indian Prime Minister can be tried for any wrong done in Jammu and Kashmir or in any other state of India or can Russian President be put on trial for any acts done in Chechnya. The trial of Mr. Slobodan Milosevic in the Hague is a demonstration of the US power and its dangerous designs which it has kept in store for several Afro-Asian countries in the world.
