Anatomy of
propaganda
How Slobodan Milosevic
was framed

Introduction
In April 2001, a
story broke making the following allegations: (1) the Yugoslav army had
massacred Albanian civilians; (2) their bodies were driven away in a
refrigerator truck which was then supposedly dumped into the Danube, deep inside
Serbia. In short notice this story became an enormous international “scandal,”
and the allegations evolved and multiplied until we were talking about whole
convoys of trucks, all of them supposedly full of massacred Albanian victims,
and supposedly spirited out of Kosovo and hidden in Serbia, out of the view of
The Hague tribunal investigators.
The hysteria in the Western (and some of the
Serbian) media surrounding these allegations was responsible for building
support among the public for the illegal abduction of Slobodan Milosevic and his
subsequent shipping to The Hague. Given the important role it played, it is
remarkable that there is absolutely no substance to the story.
In this piece I promise to do the
following:
1)
Give you a synopsis of what the story became, and an analysis of its
surface plausibility, just on its own terms.
2)
Give you a blow-by-blow chronology of how the story evolved in the media,
and how it grew and grew in spite of the fact that no evidence was ever added to
the original “evidence,” which turns out to be no evidence at all, as I will
show.
3)
Demonstrate that, not only is there no substance to the accusations
against Slobodan Milosevic, but that these accusations have been part of an
organized plot to frame Milosevic for war crimes in order to send him to The
Hague in time to get a billion dollars from the United States and also to
neutralize the pro-Milosevic opposition that has been a nuisance to the new
government in Belgrade, which government the United States helped install with
considerable effort and expenditure.
I will be happy to hear from anybody who does not find my refutations sufficiently convincing.
