Former Bundeswehr Admiral condemns NATO
NATO led war against people of Yugoslavia, says Smeling
Bonn, August 31 (Tanjug) - Former Admiral of the German Army
Bundeswehr and former chief of military intelligence Elmer Smeling
strongly condemned NATO crimes in Yugoslavia in an open letter to the
German Foreign Minister, Joschka Fischer.
Smeling is a member of a the European Tribunal to Try NATO, whose
delegation visited Yugoslavia between July 31 and August 5 and
collected evidence of NATO crimes against civilians.
Smeling stressed in his letter to Fischer that NATO claimed it was
conducting a war against the regime in Belgrade, not against the
people in Yugoslavia. But the opposite thing happened, said Smeling.
As the NATO aggressor's war dragged on, more and more civilian
facilities were hit by bombs and missiles: civilian buildings,
civilian radio stations, civilian factories, civilian power
installations, even schools, hospitals and monasteries, stressed
Smeling.
Almost the same words were used by retired British General Sir Michael
Rose in a recent program, "Monitor," on German National Television
(ARD.) As Sir Michael Rose said, in the beginning NATO claimed it
wasn't conducting a war against the Serbian people, but in fact they
conducted a total war against the people of Serbia.
In his letter to Fischer Smeling also criticized the heartlessness of
those who led NATO aggression and who referred to innocent dead
persons "collateral damage".
To remind them that these "collateral damages" had names and surnames,
that they were human beings on whom these aggressors dropped their
bombs, Smeling sent Fischer pictures of some 2.000 victims of the
bombardment with a note: "I would like that those who see these
photographs to find the humanity and courage to reconsider war and
military violence as the means for finding political solutions."
