Global Reflexion-Special on Environment #2 (pt 2) 5/20
Via NY Transfer News Collective * All the News that Doesn't Fit source - Foundation Global Reflexion <[email protected]> Special Info nr. 2 on environment; 2/2 Thu, 20 May 1999 International Action Center 39 West 14 St., #206 New York, NY 10011 (212) 633-6646 fax: (212) 633-2889 email: [email protected] web: www.iacenter.org For immediate release May 14, 1999 Contacts: Deirdre Sinnott, Brian Becker (212) 633-6646 NATO BOMBING UNLEASHES ENVIRONMENTAL CATASTROPHE IN EUROPE Spokespeople for the International Action Center announced in New York today that their group was taking actions to document NATO's bombing as a war crime against the environment of the Balkans and Europe especially in light of the Pentagon's recent admission it was using depleted uranium weapons against Yugoslavia. The Pentagon and other NATO armed forces use the extremely dense depleted-uranium to reinforce large-caliber bullets and shells. This element increases the shells' ability to penetrate armor, but it leaves toxic and radioactive particles of uranium oxide that endanger humans and pollute the environment. IAC co-director Sara Flounders was heading to Yugoslavia May 14 to investigate and bring back first-hand evidence and documentation involving NATO's use of DU weapons and its attacks on chemical and pharmaceutical plants, plastics factories, refineries and other targets. This bombing creates environmental devastation that will impact on millions of people and for generations to come. The delegation will be led by former U.S. Attorney General Ramsey Clark, who traveled to Yugoslavia in the first week of the bombing with videographer Gloria La Riva, whose videos on Iraq have won international awards. La Riva is currently working on a video on NATO's war on Yugoslavia. Jeremy Scahill of Pacifica Radio's national program Democracy Now, also part of the delegation, will provide daily news coverage on NATO bombing targets. His coverage will particularly focus on the long-term environmental disaster that is unfolding. Flounders is a co-editor of Metal of Dishonor: Depleted Uranium, a 1997 book exposing the dangers of DU-reinforced shells and its link with Gulf War Syndrome. Metal of Dishonor's other co-editor, John Catalinotto, will be speaking at forums on Yugoslavia in The Hague, Netherlands on May 15, and Bonn, Germany, on May 17 about these environmental issues and their link to NATO's war against Yugoslavia. These issues have gained importance due to the turmoil within the European Green parties whose leadership has abandoned its traditional pacifism and defense of the environment to support NATO's war. This is especially seen in the German Greens, which form part of the current government. On May 13 in Bielefeld, Germany, rank-and-file Greens at a party congress were accusing their leader--current German Foreign Minister Joshka Fischer--of betrayal and demanding an immediate end to NATO bombing. Flounders discussed the NATO strikes that did the most damage to the environment. "NATO planes bombed the pharmaceutical complex in Galenika, the largest medicine factory in Yugoslavia. This attack on a vital civilian target released dangerous, highly toxic fumes immediately, and will undermine the ability to provide medicine in the future. "On April 15, NATO forces bombed plants of the petrochemical complex in Pancevo, directly hitting installations and equipment of the Vinyl Chloride Monomer plant and Ethylene plant and damaging others. According to a report from the plant's director, Dr. Slobodan Tresac, fire broke out and huge quantities of chlorine, ethylene dichloride and vinyl chloride monomer flowed out. Workers at Pancevo, fearing further bombing attacks that would blow up dangerous materials, released tons of ethylene dichloride, a carcinogen, into the Danube. "That same night, NATO also hit the Ammonia and Power Supply divisions of HIP-AZOTARA Fertilizer Company and completely destroyed them, also in Pancevo. "In a May 7 news release, the Worldwide Fund for Nature warned that an environmental crisis is looming in the lower Danube river and the Black Sea due mainly to oil slicks. The river is a source of drinking water for 10 million people. "Of course NATO bombing is also the cause of immediate human suffering in Yugoslavia," said Flounders, "but we don't want to neglect its long-term criminal impact on the environment. "In an open letter from Belgrade, the Yugoslav minister of agriculture, Nedelijko Sipovac, wrote in early May that these bombings have caused ecological catastrophe `not only on the territory of the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia but on the territories of all Balkan, Danube basin, Mediterranean and European countries as well.' Sipovac noted an increase in radioactivity which he attributed to the use of depleted uranium bullets." Catalinotto said Pentagon spokesperson Major-General Chuck Wald finally admitted to BBC news on May 7 that its A-10 "Warthog" planes were firing depleted uranium ammunition. "These planes fired almost a million 30 millimeter DU rounds during the 1991 war against Iraq," he said. "DU is one important aspect of a looming environmental disaster for the region," Catalinotto added, "that will harm all the different nationalities of the former Yugoslavia and could spill over into Greece, Bulgaria, Romania, Hungary, and the Czech and Slovak republics. "The environmental arrogance of the NATO generals exposes their original `humanitarian' excuse for starting to bomb Yugoslavia as a fraud," he said. "They are making the whole region unfit for human habitation. And they will wind up poisoning their own soldiers as they did with Agent Orange in Vietnam and with DU in Iraq. "We in the International Action Center will spread this message far and wide in Europe and North America and expose anyone who defends NATO's war as a killer of the environment. We hope this will bring the Greens where they belong, side by side with anti-war forces that demand NATO end the bombing and get out." The IAC is part of a coalition of anti-war organizations in the United States who are organizing a national demonstration expected to bring tens of thousands of people to the Pentagon in Washington DC to protest the war on Saturday, June 5. The second edition of Metal of Dishonor was just released. Since the first edition came out in 1997, this issue has gained international attention and the book has been translated into Arabic and Japanese editions. --30-- ********************************************************** German Greens 'Disappointed' with German Brothers 5/15/99 News Release FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: May 15, 1999 Contact G/GPUSA Media Group: Howie Hawkins (315) 425-9602 Starlene Rankin (515) 233-9654 The Coordinating Committee of The Greens/Green Party USA issued this statement today. GPUSA REJECTS GERMAN GREENS' COMPROMISE; RENEWS CALL FOR "IMMEDIATE AND FINAL STOP" TO NATO BOMBING May 15, 1999 The Greens/Green Party USA would like to express our support and gratitude to the German Green Party anti-war resisters and especially the 43% of the delegates who voted for an "immediate and final stop" to the NATO bombing at their party congress yesterday. However, we are extremely disappointed that the majority of the party congress adopted the compromise resolution, which called for a "unilateral pause" in the bombing to open the door to possible negotiations. The compromise is better than supporting NATO's current policy of bombing until Yugoslavia accepts a NATO-led military occupation. But it is not enough. The bombing must stop without conditions. We can only hope that the Green Foreign Minister, Joschka Fischer, will pursue the temporary bombing halt with every means at his disposal. The Green/Green Party USA believes that US-led NATO bombing campaign has been a disaster in every respect: for the Kosovar Albanians it was presumedly supposed to protect, for democratic anti-nationalists in both Kosovo/a and Serbia, for progress toward demilitarization and peace in the post Cold War world, for the environment of the Balkans and beyond, and for the rule of international law which the US-led NATO bombing campaign has flagrantly violated. It is our strong view that the US and NATO are pursuing this disastrous policy of bombing primarily to establish NATO as the world's military enforcer of the geopolitical and corporate interests of the US and its junior NATO partners, with little regard for the Albanian, Serb, and other victims of ethnic cleansing by Balkan nationalists and of so-called "collateral damage" from NATO bombing. We are outraged that Greens in the German, French, and Italian NATO governments have become party to this war policy and to NATO's recent official expansion of its mission to include "out of area" military intervention. As Greens in the United States, we will now focus our attention on the US Congress to stop this immoral war. On April 28, the U.S. House of Representatives defeated a resolution that would have authorized the use of military force in Yugoslavia, satisfied the conditions War Powers Resolution, and enabled the Clinton Administration to wage the war without further Congressional approval. Consequently, the President must now end the use of U.S. military force in Yugoslavia by May 26, unless Congress explicitly authorizes the use of force. We intend to do all we can to insure Congress does not allow a continuation of this war. The alternative to US/NATO acting as the "rogue superpower" and destroying Yugoslavia with its bombing campaign is to pursue negotiations backed by international consensus through the United Nations. The Greens/Green Party USA calls for a United Nations mandate to demand a cease-fire by all sides, to restart negotiations, and to quickly authorize an international peace-keeping force independent of NATO. The US and NATO countries should provide aid and admittance of refugees sufficient to meet the immediate need. A U.N. mandate should support the right of Kosovo/a refugees to return home as soon as possible in security and with sufficient aid for reconstruction. The US and NATO countries should donate reparations for the infrastructural and environmental damage they have caused by the bombing. They should provide the resources needed for the post-war reconstruction of prosperity in the Balkans. Spending US resources on economic and environmental reconstruction will do far more to create the conditions for peace and multicultural democracy in the Balkans than wasting US resources on bombs, violence, and war that destroys those conditions.

Few were those who believed that NATO would dare strike or cover with bombs chemical plants producing exclusively for civilian production (such as chlorine and ammonia reservoirs, and the like). When it became evident that anything and everything in the country was good enough target, Yugoslavia has tried to prevent chemical accidents by closing the plants, removing chemicals, neutralizing or leaking of the chemicals into surface flows and the ground. Such preventivc actions were based in concerns about possible side-effects of acute nature and immediate, but they could not have dealt with long-term consequences. Fear and anxiety in the Yugoslav population due to the release of poisonous chemicals, explosions, or fires, have resulted in emptying of cooling systems within great cooling plants, which some institutions have decided to do for safety reasons. Others have moved or leaked huge quantities of ammonia in the waterflows out of fear of chemical hazards. Bombing of the town of Pancevo (pop. 150,000) is perhaps the best example: it is located 15 km NE of Belgrade. At one point (the night between April 14 and 15, 1999) the NATO aggressor bombed three industrial complexes simultaneously: the Oil Refinery, Petrochemical Plant, and the Nitrogen Processing Plant. All three plants are within the industrial zone of the town (ca. 8 km2), bordering on the residential area. The nearest residential buildings are less than 150 m away the Nitrogen Processing Plant. After the strike on the Refinery Complex, several reservoirs were set on fire. These had not been hit by previous NATO attack of April 12, 1999. The reservoirs contained raw oil and derivatives. A huge cloud of thick smoke was formed above the reservoirs, about 1.5 km wide and 3 km high, leaving sediment of soot, ashes and dust. The last part of this cloud was carried by the wind westwards, where it came down to the ground at about 15 km from the explosion spot. This cloud was changing direction in the 10-day period to follow (during the brush fire that lasted for 10 days with various intensity), so that at one moment had to be evacuated a part of the town. In the first five of these 10 days, concentrations of sulfur-dioxide, soot and total chlorocarbons increased by the 4-8 times in relation to the referent border values. This was especially the case with unburned contents of the oil: benzene, toluene, xylenes etc., carbon-monoxide, mercaptanes, formaldehide and the like. At the same time Petrochemical Complex was attacked: its reservoirs were hit by bombs; they contained vinyl-chloride-monomer (VCM - 1,200 tons), chlorine in residues, ethylene-dichloride (EDC-1,500 tons), NaOH (40%; 6,000 tons), HCl (33%; 800 tons). About 1,400 tons of EDC, 3,000 tons of NaOH and 600 tons of HCl leaked into the Danube. A large quantity of oil also leaked into the Danube (about 50 tons of the emulsion) and derivatives, through a common equipment for the treatment of wastewaters (which was not working during the NATO agression).The VCM reservoir burned for hours, creating a whitish smoke and a cloud that was moving westwards, toward the outskirts of Belgrade (Borca, Ovca, Padinska Skela). The cloud was carried by low air currents, and merged with another cloud that had been formed when the storehouse full of fertilizer NPK was hit of the Nitrogen Processing Plant. The VCM concentrations measured in those clouds were 3,000-4,000 times higher than the allowed values. Increased concentrations of NOx (10 mg/m3) and phosgene (2 ppm) were also registered. About 250 tons of liquid ammonia leaked from the Nitrogen Processing Plant. After the situation had been proclaimed stable (two days later) teams from the Institute of Public Health of Belgrade and of Pancevo started examinations and measurements of concentrations of certain matters in the soil, surface waters and nutritive plants that were in the territory which surrounds the targeted zone. The soil at the Petrochemical Complex was soaked with EDC. All the chemicals that had been released in water, was present in the surface waters, as well as the compounds resulting from their reactions. What is most important, concentrations of several grams per liter of EDC were found in the deep of the river. As the result, fishing was forbidden downstream from the town of Pancevo. According to the examinations performed by the Institute of Biology "Dr Sinisa Stankovic" from Belgrade, there is a decrease in the activity of the river flora and fauna at the penetration point of the chemicals into the Danube. A large quantity of dead fish was observed in the area 30- 40 km downstream from Pancevo. Pancevo is only one among the locations where a unique experiment with the human population has been performed in vivo. Just a few days after the Pancevo accident, NATO planes bombed a great transformer station in Belgrade. On that occasion, the quantity of 150 tons of the special transformer-plant oil leaked from. Through a canal system, the oil reached the Rakovica Stream and the Topcider Rivulet, the right tributary to the river Sava. Being aware of the chemical dangers of this type of oil, professionals fought for seven days to collect the oil from the surface of the river and to prevent the contamination of the Sava River. Their success was, unfortunately, only partial. The bombings of the Baric industrial zone caused the Sava river to accumulate great quantities of hydrogenfluoride (HF; 99.9%), HNO3 (concentrated) and about 200 tons of liquid ammonia. All this necessitated regimen perforation of the Belgrade Waterworks. The consequences of NATO attacks on the Pancevo Refinery and other industrial complexes are still being examinad detail in the days to come. An curions aspect of the NATO agression was the striking of the LPG spheres in Novi Sad, where it was obvious that the aggressor had wanted to provoke the explosion of gaseous substance, thus causing as severe ecological damage as possible. Finally, the majority of the chemical plants not related in any way to the military production of any kind has been damaged or completely destroyed. The Yugoslav population is wandering how to chlorinate drinking water if they are forbidden to start the production of chlorine? They would like to know how the cooling plants are supposed to operate without ammonia. The examination of the consequences of the heavy strikes by NATO on the Novi Sad Refinery and other chemical plants will be the subject of our further communications.

Aerolised ceramic DU is an alpha, beta and gamma emitter which can travel up to 20 km. and has a half-life of 4.5 billion years. This is a major nuclear disaster not only for the people of that region but, eventually, for the rest of all living things on earth. The people of Iraq are already suffering the terrible consequences of DU weapons use - birth deformities, cancers and 'lesser' illnesses. American GIs serving in the Gulf War (and their children) have also experienced the horrors of this kind of ionising radiation. Those wounded with DU shrapnel still had uranium in their semen, nine years later. Uranium oxide crosses the placenta and is carried throughout the body in the blood system. Once ingested in air, food or water it is quite capable of shredding DNA strands or doing other genetic damage if one of the particles hits reproductive cells. This is what the United States wants the Albanian refugees to return to! These military men are totally insane. Don't believe their lies about how 'harmless' it is because it is classified as 'low-level' radiation. These are weapons of mass destruction, and we in the peace movement have enormous responsibility for trying to get an emergency UN ban on their use as quickly as possible. Illuminating US congressmen wouldn't hurt, either, since the United States is totally ignoring the authority of the UN. ------------------------------------------------------------------- Dr. Rosalie Bertell, the respected epidemiologist, writes that: "In 1996 this issue was brought before the Human Rights Tribunal in Geneva and the Tribunal condemned it as warfare. They actually called Depleted Uranium a weapon of mass destruction. I think it might be better called a weapon of indiscriminate destruction but they didn't really have a term for it. I say indescriminate because it will by choice affect women and children. Women have tisses that are more radioactively sensitive like the breast and uterine tissue. Children are closer to the ground; they're growing; they'll incorporate more uranium into their bones when they grow and they also have a longer life span so that the cancers that have a longer latency can be expressed. So it selects out women and children. "Anyway it was condemned by United Nations Human Rights Commission and they have appointed a rapporteur to prepare a brief for the United Nations. It's not completed yet. "The World Health Organization has sent a team into Iraq to look at the aftermath of war but they just went in last fall and they expect to spend two years in study. "So I think you can see that the forces for good here are slow compared to the extent at which this is being used and the rapidity with which it is being used not only in Iraq but Bosnia and Kosovo . "So I would call this to your attention- and I would ask you to make this known."

Up to now, 9000 missiles and bombs have been fired at various targets, an expenditure of more than 12 million kilograms of explosives. Many of these guided devices have been targeted at the Yugoslav infrastructure, the destruction of which has caused serious environmental problems in the region. The main causes of the pollution in the area are: -The destruction of: chemical and petrochemical plants fertilizer factories oil depots and refineris pharmaceutical plants -Use of depleted uranium -Burned aircraft fuel DESTRUCTION OF THE CHEMICAL AND PETROCHEMICAL PLANTS In the city of Pancevo, 15km northeast of Belgrade, there are located combined petrochemical and fertilizer factories and an oil refinery. A VCM (vinyl chloride monomer) plant was targeted two times in april. Vinyl chloride is used principally for the production of polyvinyl chloride, a synthetic resin. VCM is known to cause cancer and has a damaging effect on liver and kidneys in humans. This factory produces 300 tons of VCM per day. NATO airforce hit production facilities and storage depots of the VCM while the plant was in regular operation. This resulted in a huge explosion. A toxic cloud of smoke and gas, hundreds of feet in hight was produced containing phosgene, hydrochloride acid, ethylene dichloride and VCM. 20 tons of luiquid chlorine was released into the atmosphere. This threatened Pancevo urban area of 120,000 inhabitants and indirectly Belgrade with its population of 2 million. After the bombardment the amount of the toxic gases in the air above Pancevo were 1000 times above the permitted level, reported Violeta Orlovic from the Institute for the Protection of Nature of Serbia. Many people were affected by the gas. Several thousand reported feeling nausea and vertigo. Residents were told to breathe through scarves soaked in sodium bicarbonate. Plants of chemical process industries of this type have never been military targets or subject of strikes. On april, 15 NATO airforce bombed a fertilizer company in Pancevo. The ammonia division facility, the power supply division and the units were destroyed. The municipality of Baric was also hit. There is in Baric a large complex for the production of chloride. On the second day of bombing, a chemical factory in the Belgrade suburb of Sremcica was also targeted and hit. Other facilites for the production of potentially hazardous material that have been damaged are: the pharmaceutical factory "Galenika" in Belgrade, a plastics factory in Pristina, a chemical industry "Milan BLagojevic" in Lucani and a factory for the production of prharmaceutical products "Zdravlje" in Leskovac. In addition, several transformer stations were destroyed in NATO attacks which resulted in the leakage of highly toxic pyralene. BOMBARDMENT OF THE OIL DEPOTS NATO military jets repeatedly target dozens of the country's major oil refineries. NATO reported the destruction of the 70% of the refineries and 30% of the counttry's capacities. Such installations were hit in the cities of Novi Sad, Pancevo, Belgrade, Nis, Pristina, Sombor, Smederevo and elsewhere. Power-heating plants with their oil reservoirs were destroyed in Novi Sad and Belgrade. WATER POLLUTION Serbia has one of the most extensive underground water systems in Europe. The contamination of these vital water sources will be felt in the whole surrounding area and all the way to the Black Sea. Oil and petrol from the damaged refineries area has flowed into the Danube, forming slicks 15km long and 400m wide. Workers at the Pancevo petrochemical complex decided to release ethylene dichloride into the Danube to avoid the risk of an explosion. The engineers of this plant have recently reported that in total 1400 tons of this carcinogenic matter, 800 tons of 33% hydrochloride acid, large deposits of mercury and 3000 tons of lye flowed into the river. The pollution is expected to go downstream to Romania and Bulgaria. Bombing at the Zastava car factory in Kragujevac has caused several tons of pyralene to leak into the Velika Morava river, one of the major tributaries of the Danube in Serbia. Even a small amount of this carcenogenic material can poison one million litres of water. About 10 million people in Balkan region depend on the Danube for drinking water. USE OF DEPLETED URANIUM At a US Defence Department briefing held on May 7, 1999, Pentagon has confirmed the use of depleted uranium (DU) in the conflict with Yugoslavia. This is the third time in history that this dangerous metal is being used in weapons. Bullets being fired by A-10 anti-tank aircraft and probably all Tomahawk Cruise missiles in the campaign Allied Force contain DU. The Coghill Research Laboratories from UK cite eminent radiation physicists who calculate that unprecedented use of DU inserts in Cruise missiles in Yugoslavia will have the same effect as Chernobil and the Three Mile Island disaster. DU is a waste product of the enrichment of uranium for military and civilian use. It is 40% less radioactive than natural uranium. The half life of this sort of uranium is 10 billion years. It pollutes the environment for a very long period of time. That's why it has a nickname "metal of dishonor". DU is used in shells because of it's low price and because of it's extreme density (1,7 times as dense as lead) which penetrates targets better. The U.S. stockpile exceeds a billion pounds of this heavy metal. DU was used, for military purposes, for the first time during the Gulf War in the 1991. The estimated amount of DU left around the Gulf War zone is between 350 and 750 tons. As the shell hits its target, it burns and releases uranium oxide. This aerosol contains particles of DU 0.5-5 microns in size which, once they are in the air, can be carried by the wind and inhaled or ingested. DU is both radioactive and toxic. Once in the lungs, one such particle is equivalent to having one chest X-ray per hour for life. Because it is impossible to remove, the victim is gradually irradiated. There extensive reports from southern Iraq about a large increase of stillbirths, birth defects, leukemia and other cancers in children born since 1991. Some scientific researches indicates that DU could be responsible for the Gulf War syndrome from which thousands of US veterans suffer. AIRCRAFT FUEL More than 1,100 military aircraft are being used in the bombing of Yugoslavia. NATO claims it has carried out around 21,000 sorties so far. Jet fuel exhaust releases toxic and cancerous gases into the atmosphere such as: ammonium-perchlorat, polyvinyl-chloride, lead-stearate, polybutadie, polyethan etc. Ivan Grozdanov, a chemist at the Centre for Radioisotopes in Skopje said that the burning aircraft fuel is a primary source of stratospheric nitrogen oxides which are severely damaging the ozone layer. In combination with other sources of pollution, this has caused acid rains which have already occured in northern Serbia and that will affect agriculture and forest regions. AFFECTED COUNTRIES IN THE REGION "By burning down enormous quantities of naphtha and its derivatives more than a hundred highly toxic chemical compounds that pollute water, air and soil are released endangering the entire Balkan ecosystem", said New Green Party scientist Luka Radoja. The chief inspector of the Macedonian Ministry of environment, Miroslav Baburski, claims that furans and dioxins released by bomb explosions are being carried over very long distances. The pollution is entering Macedonia by air and by the river Lepenec which crosses the border between Yugoslavia and Macedonia. The toxic products in the air which are spreading in the Europe, have already reached Poland. Depending on a weather conditions they could also affect Hungary, Greece and Italy. CONCLUSION The NATO campaign in Yugoslavia is exposing hundreds of thousands of citizens to various sorts of poisoning. This will have serious short, medium and long term consequences to the health of the inhabitants and the environment of the southeast Europe. Long lasting toxic, mutagenous and cancerous effects of the released chemicals will increase malign, lung, skin and other diseases. Over 20 international treaties and conventions are being violated by this agression. Pollution on such scale deserves greater attention of the world's public and direct actions of all those who are commited to protecting the natural environment.
