More on the convoy from a Greek source...quite funny IMHO
Salonica, Macedonia, Greece
29/4/99
NATO convoys carrying "aid", invented new traffic signs in order to find
their way from Greece to the Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia: The new
NATO traffic signs are black with a white bottle of milk and a white arrow
pointing at the direction that the convoys should follow.
NATO convoys are normally targets of the members of the Communist Party of
Greece (KKE). KKE members stop the convoys and vandalise them (their
actions are fully supported by the greek common opinion, as current
undisputed surveys prove that 98% of the Greeks are opposed to NATO
actions).
This time, KKE members were more "inventive". Their new initiative's aim
was to organise something that would completely embarass and humiliate
NATO: They simply changed the positions of the NATO traffic signs, so that
the signs were pointing at the... Open Vegetable Market of Salonica!!!
The unsuspected NATO lorry drivers followed the directions of the signs and
when they saw the gate of the Open Vegetable Market and tought they were
passing the gate of the... Greek borders and entered the market!!! Angry
vegetable sellers "bombed" the trapped NATO convoy with rotten cabbages,
lettuces, cucambers, tomatoes and other vegetables they couldn't sell!!! TV
reporters arrived on the spot, so the whole incident was broadcasted all
over Greece!!!
The entire Greek Nation laughs at the new NATO achievement.
If NATO faces such humiliations in "peaceful" Greece, then imagine what
will actually happen in the hostile mountains of Yugoslavia!!! |
