Yugoslavia: The Avoidable
War is co-produced by George Bogdanich and German TV producer Martin Lettmayer.
TORONTO - The documentary
traces how crucial mistakes by the West, particularly Germany and the US led to
the violent break-up of Yugoslavia in 1991, culminating in the devastating NATO
bombing campaign of 1999. "Yugoslavia: The
Avoidable War" traces the role of Western intelligence agencies in arming
separatist groups in Croatia, Bosnia and Kosovo and reveals how Western
governments supported different sides in an ethnic conflict while portraying
themselves as peacemakers. Most compelling are the candid statements of the
decision-makers themselves, including former EC Mediator Lord Peter Carrington,
former US Secretaries of State James Baker and Lawrence Eagleburger, as well as
Germany's former foreign minister, Hans Dietrich Genscher, UN Commanders Lewis
MacKenzie and Sir Michael Rose, former Newsweek military correspondent Col.
David Hackworth, author Susan Woodward, former Nuremberg prosecutor Walter
Rockler, historian Nora Beloff, Canadian diplomat James Bissett, author Scott
Taylor and many other participants and observers. The LA Weekly called the
film "truly accomplished," adding: "The numerous strategic
missteps by the West and the endless political doublespeak are carefully
detailed. The tragedy of the situation seems to multiply before your eyes as
the film clearly proves that so much of the bloodshed could have easily been
prevented." Winner Best Social
Documentary at the New York International Independent Film and Video Festival,
September 1999. This special screening is sponsored by
Association of Serbian Women and WILPF ( Women International League for Peace
and Freedom , Toronto Chapter) For more information ,
