DECLARATION
of the International Conference
"Freedom for Slobodan Milosevic - Moral, Political and Legal Imperative"
held in Belgrade, October 21-22, 2001
We, representatives of the International Committee to Defend Slobodan
Milosevic and nine National Committees have gathered in Belgrade 21 and 22
October 2001 under the auspices of the Yugoslav Committee (Freedom
Association). We express our deepest bitterness over the arrest of Slobodan
Milosevic, the current President of the largest opposition party in Serbia
and Yugoslavia.
President Milosevic is globally renowned for fighting for more than a decade
for the Serbs and all Yugoslav peoples, a struggle that has made him the
adversary of all who wanted to jeopardize that freedom. By the conjunction
of historical circumstances, those powers which wanted to jeopardize the
freedom of the Yugoslav peoples, as well as the freedom of other nations,
were big, powerful and ruthless. The number of their victims, both peoples
and individuals, is continuously growing.
Slobodan Milosevic has been the main target. For a long time he fought the
mightiest powers that joined together, deserting all semblance of nobility,
and even reason.
Leaders of the struggle for national independence in other countries and for
other peoples have replaced one another, thus sharing the wrath of the
violent. But Slobodan Milosevic took upon himself the full burden of that
wrath.
For a whole decade he was subjected to the most brutal attacks in the
U.S.-dominated mass media in an effort to reverse the roles of victim and
culprit and thus to hide NATO's vicious policy of releasing the worst
terrorist forces to tear apart Yugoslavia. Then President Milosevic was
subjected to legal and political violence by authorities in his own country,
who were acting for foreign powers. He was illegally jailed in Belgrade.
When the new regime could no longer hold him, they kidnapped him from jail
and turned him over to NATO, which transported him to the Hague so-called
Tribunal. Thus he is the first democratically elected head of state to be
jailed in the dungeon of the New World Order.
What was his crime against this New World Order? Only that he loved his
people and freedom, and fought for both.
What do the new Masters hope to gain by kidnapping him? To use the false
spectacle of a trial to justify the breakup of Yugoslavia, achieved through
lies, threats, bribery and the cruelest violence.
In the attack on Yugoslavia, the United Nations has been degraded into a
tool of U.S./EU neocolonial violence. Now President Milosevic has been
imprisoned in a "UN" court. The function of that court is to give the
appearance of legality to the grossest violations of international law.
The idea of creating a court that puts on trial the leaders of resistance to
aggression, while whitewashing those who instigated and waged
terrorist-secessionist wars and naked aggression, dismembering and punishing
Yugoslavia, could only be born in the most distorted minds. The Hague
"Tribunal" is a political instrument of genocide and the satanization of the
Serbian people, and not a court of law.
We call upon the peoples of the world and those leaders who care about truth
and justice: let us a take joint stand against the violence that is
threatening us all. Let us resist with the energy and dignity demonstrated
by Slobodan Milosevic during the past decade, and now before the Hague
kangaroo court. With the demand for the release of Slobodan Milosevic we
defend international law, equality among nations, ethnic fraternity and the
right of ordinary people to live in peace without the fear that their
nations will be attacked and decimated by NATO.
We call upon the United Nations, an organization established to connect
peoples and individuals, to protect the poor and small against the wrath of
the powerful and rich. Abolish this Hague false Tribunal. Free the Serbian
patriots imprisoned in the name of the United Nations. Free Slobodan
Milosevic, symbol of the World's resistance of this unjust, New Order.
There is now much consciousness and discussion of the impact of terrorism.
The truth is the attack on Yugoslavia has been and continues to be waged
through the use of terrorist forces and similar fascist groupings, directed
in the most cynical fashion by NATO, under U.S. government leadership.
President Milosevic led the fight against these forces while maintaining a
policy of compassion and fraternity towards all ethnic groups and social
justice for ordinary people. The idea of a worldwide struggle against
terrorism while this hero of resistance languishes in the Hague dungeon is
an outrage.
Free Slobodan Milosevic Now!
