Who are the No. 1 War Criminals?

[p. 80]

Human Rights

The latest hoax in the arsenal of us dirty tricks is the sudden shift from the earlier crusade to destroy communism and promote freedom, democracy and a free market economy, towards a spirited drive for so-called universal human rights. The theme remains the same, like sending Stealth bombers to Yugoslavia to force Milosevic into submission, only the tune has been changed. Clinton and Blair, acting as common hoodlums, initiated the Kosovo war to safeguard the credibility of nato at the time of its fiftieth anniversary. They managed to hoodwink a majority of nato parliamentarians in two continents to buy their lies. Massive terror and death were inflicted upon the Yugoslav people. To capture Manuel Noriega father Bush used thousands of soldiers in Panama to pick him up. By solely using air power Clinton managed to get Milosevic behind bars. In 1940, Hermann Göring forced Holland to surrender after a heavy bombardment of Rotterdam. Washington was equally self-congratulating about defeating the Serbs as Berlin was about the Dutch in 1940.

The inescapable result of dirty minds is that they produce fuzzy and criminal thinking. us and nato policies on the Balkans have inflicted irreparable harm and damage on masses of innocent people. Hitler went here beserk during the forties. Hand in hand with the military industrial complex, Nazi Germany slided from bad to worse. The unchecked Donovan boys are turning evermore into a us version of the Waffen SS, which took the lead in the universal holocaust of World War II. Jews unfortunately tend to feel, that they alone suffered from the Nazis that went mad. The end of current Washington madness is not in sight. No doubt, more Kosovo's are on the way.

This report highlights some of the modus operandi which led America to the dubious status of Super Rogue of the 21st century. More and more Europeans are becoming aware of Washington realities and would prefer Brussels to turn eastward and instead build alliances with Eastern Europe and Russia. nato is a relic based on realities dating back to Potsdam and the end of World War II, when Stalin loomed as a dark shadow over the western European peninsula. I reported from Moscow from 1971 to 1988 only to discover, that the ussr had never ever had the slightest intention of invading western Europe, as Washington and London were telling us. Western Europe was simply scared into fearing the worst from the Kremlin and Europeans were actually believing that the Russians were aiming at another European war. This was mainly a self-serving fabrication for the benefit of us military industrial complex and the expected corresponding rise of Wall Street Stocks. A nation, destroyed from the Ukraine to Stalingrad, rather then scheming for another military conflict, harboured different priorities in the nuclear age. We all fell for us scare tactics and massive anti-Soviet propaganda.

December 10, 1948, the un passed the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (ud). The thirty articles in this covenant are a passport to a decent way of life for all. Washington was ready to ignore the agreed upon rules as long as the Cold War raged. Article 9, for instance, stipulates that arbitrary arrest, detention and exile are forbidden. The framers of this text should have added that to murder, kidnap or overthrow leaders of other member states ranks under the chapter of first class War Crimes. All us presidents since 1945 have engaged in such criminal activities, thereby making the outcry emanating from Washington concerning Milosevic, Castro, Sadam, Quadaffi, or Osama bin Laden perfectly ridiculous. Because, since World War II, Americans themselves have behaved as the worst terrorists in the business. Except all are afraid to call a spade a spade fearing the awesome us military and economic powers.

Israel, America's closest ally, has been a steady partner in crime. Americans and Israelis think and act alike. Both nations live by the sword. us Christians and Israeli Jews feel their religious beliefs are a compass to a just world. A continuing armed pilgrimage to secure their worldwide interests seems permanent. Both nations feel they possess a God given right to use any means, including murder, assassination and terror of any kind to achieve their goals. Human rights do not figure in their policies.

When Christians embarked on the liberation of the Holy land during the 11th, 12th, and 13th centuries, they aimed at liberating Jerusalem inspite of the fact, that the city had been under Muslim control since the 7th century. Sharon is in charge of the holy city for now and there is no hope in sight for a peaceful resolution to existing religious obsessions on either side. Perhaps Marx was embarrassingly right when he said in 1844, the religion was ‘the sigh of the oppressed creature, the feeling of a heartless world, just as it is the spirit of unspiritual conditions. It is the opium of the people.’

The 100.000 Christians marching on Constantinople in 1096 were led by Godfrey of Bouillon, Duke of Lower Lorraine. In Korea it was general Douglas Mac Arthur. In Vietnam William Westmoreland. In Kosovo Wesley Clark. They were the Dukes of Lower Lorraine of the day aiming at making the entire globe safe for the American way of life - and Wall Street, of course. The Dutch guilder is currently being annexed by the euro. What American Rogues really want is to annex the euro, rubble, yen, peso etcetera, to the dollar, transforming the world into a global Disneyland, where everybody happily chews gum, pays with dollars, speaks English and gets brainwashed by cnn.

At the same time, most Americans still want Fidel dead. Hassidic Jews hope Sharon will kill all Arabs. The Islamic Jihad continues, because Palestinians demand total sovereignty on their soil of birth. Who would deny them this basic human right? It is far from certain that

[p. 82]

Saddam Hussein, and a few leaders like him, will allow bygones to be bygones. Israel continues a policy of selective assassination of Palestinian freedom fighters. Arabs blow themselves up causing an undetermined number of Israeli deaths to score a point. They insist on unconditional freedom. They can't do what Washington did, simply by dumping two atom-bombs on Japan to make the same point. Therefore, it looks as if mankind had better fasten its seat-belt since more Mother-of-all-Battles have to be expected before eternal peace on earth will be archieved.

Will justice without borders ever reign on our planet? Will national sovereignty some day indeed make place for a global management? Washington insists on remaking the world to its image. It is the Donovan crusaders who have to establish a pure Pax Americana, and if need be use force and strong armed methods. They have begun to stretch us Justice to personages they consider criminals, wherever they are. Of course, their own war criminals are excluded from their imperialist games. Prosecutors in The Hague are merely chasing us enemies in a nato Tribunal, based on nato Justice rendered in a nato country. How impartial can you get? Holland should not make its territory available for the cover-up of us crimes against humanity. Some day an Arab suicide bomber may use a semi nuclear device to blow up the Court in The Hague.

In the mean time, an interesting phenomenon is taking place in the realm of human rights. The un covenant of 1948 (ud) had during the Cold War shown a split along an obvious divide. ‘Capitalists were keen on civil and political rights,’ reported the London Economist (August 18, 2001) ‘Communists were keen on social and economic human rights.’ The Chinese are reasoning along similar lines. This means, that since the Cold War belongs to another century, a large chunk of humanity does not share the us way of looking at and dealing with the world. Even prestigious human rights advocates such as Amnesty International and Human Rights Watch seem to be entertaining second thoughts on continued placing of accent on the civil and political rights of individuals. A Subtle shift towards the International Covenant on Economic, Social an Cultural Rights, also adopted in 1948, seems to be taking place. In 1998, the World Health Organization, for instance, asked for the recognition of health as a human right.

The Economist also singled out ‘the oblivious Americans’ for their reject during a un summit on aids, a rights-based approach to stopping the disease. ‘Washington sees aids purely as a health policy problem, or when pressed as one of national security.’ Of course, to guarantee people political rights is relatively cheap. To protect masses by Law in the area of economic and social rights is potentially enormously costly. Even Florida voters were shortchanged, in a way that corrupted the outcome of the

[p. 83]

election in 2000 and thus sabotaged the will of the people to the advantage of Republicans. us states lack funds to supply proper voting machines to impoverished neighborhoods, where the poor live and have trouble in understanding the procedures. Leonard Rubenstein of the lobby Physicians for Human Rights in Boston, predicts, ‘that as Americans start demanding human rights for others around the world, they will start pressing for them at home as well.’

Apart from pigheadedness about all international treaties, and George Bush junior's attitude towards global warming or missile defense, us conservatives insist, that the Government blocks the setting up of an International Criminal Court in The Hague for which the Dutch Government has already set aside a huge vacant plot. Life in America has become completely intertwined with threats and counter threats of legal steps to protect oneself against sharks luring from all sides at all the times, in an effort to find loopholes by which a few bucks can be cashed in. When I hired a literary agent in New York, I was strongly advised to consult another literary lawyer to check if the agent wasn't screwing me. Those were the moments when I realized why I preferred to live in New York on a green card and never took out us citizenship. But, I confess, Holland, where I now live again, is, in this respect, also following disastrously bad American habits. Although: with my publisher for the past ten years, I never signed a contract. All my publications were agreed upon in good faith, orally by mutual trust.

In America personal threats, blackmail, fearing lawsuits, seeking protection from crooks all around, is all accepted as part and parcel of trying to survive. This corrupting way of life has become totally infectious and is considered quite normal. When lawmakers in Washington use Mafia methods to pressure their government into fullfilling their wishes, they simply threaten the White House: ‘You need 582 million dollars for the United-Nations, fine, but we will vote against it, unless you first veto plans for an International Criminal Court in The Hague.’ The us as the wealthiest country in the world is one billion dollars behind in payments to the un. Washington, in turn, plays blackmail with this debt to the wold organization.

Washington's Mafia behavior in this matter doesn't even end with the threat to the un. New legislation is being introduced on Capitol Hill that exempts Americans from being prosecuted for genocide, war crimes and crimes against humanity by the new International Criminal Court. Bill Clinton reluctantly signed the us up. Yet, he knew, that the project would never be accepted by the us Senate. The newly designed legislation further stipulates that us military assistance will be cut off to any non-nato nation, that joins the new Hague Tribunal. It would also prohibit us troops from serving in any un peacekeeping forces, unless the Council first gives American sol-

[p. 84]

diers immunity from the International Criminal Court's jurisdiction. The legislation even empowers the us president to use force to free us soldiers held for prosecution by this Court in The Hague.

Some Washington lawmakers are a danger to themselves, their country and the world. They seem to live with the absurd notion, that Bush junior would launch a paratrooper operation when -for instance- Henry Kissinger was to be arrested during a vacation on the Spanish island of Ibiza, on the orders of a Spanish judge and was then to be brought to The Hague International Court for War Crimes for sentencing. Would the junior Bush set the American Bismarck free by force?

As recently as December 1993, Bill Clinton decided to no longer recognize Article 13 (2) of the un Charter, which states ‘that everyone has the right to leave any country including is own and return to his country’. However, Resolution 194 was reaffirmed in the General Assembly by 127-2, with only the us and Israel opposed. Washington joined Tel Aviv in rejecting the second half of the sentence, ‘and return to his country’, because it would give Palestinians the right to return to their homeland. The charade, that Washington should be the ‘honest broker’ to assist in promoting peace in the Middle East is totally preposterous, because Washington is completely committed to Israel, just as it is fully siding with the Albanian uck. Trouble spots -like Taiwan versus China, Kashmir versus India and Pakistan, Afghanistan versus the ussr, Cuba versus North America- are ongoing projects of the Donovan Boys, who thrive on conspiracy, murder, intrigue, and covert operations everywhere. They ARE the number one war criminals in the world. us gangsters have by their wits alone lived for half a century virtually unopposed. But the first signs are there. Mankind is at last discovering who the real evildoers are. Trigger happily as they are, they shot jfk and his brother. They created an inspiring repertoire of means and methods to get rid of numerous Americans, who were in the way. Worldwide they feel even more relaxed about putting their murderous computer games into practice.

And, while a nervous world awaits to see where they will strike next, in the Sandia national Laboratories in New Mexico, bright Donovan Boys are doing over time in the Intelligent Systems and Robotics Center to invent tiny, highly maneuverable wheeled machines, that can do the jobs that until now were done by live Marines. The buggy like vehicle is about a meter long and is called a Rattler, or a robotic all-terrain lunar exploration rover, originally developed by Sandia Laboratories for the National Aeronautics and Space Administration. The purpose is, for instance, that these machines can clean out a building held by enemy soldiers. The robots swarm out like ants and have guns that use gas. This way it does not matter if there are also women and children in the building. ‘America's military,’ wrote mark Williams and

[p. 85]

Andrew Madden in Red Herring Magazine (August 1, 2001), ‘is the country's biggest business. According to the House Budget Committee, in 2000 defense expenditure represented 16 percent of discretionary federal spending.’ This means, of course, so discreet and secret, that most Americans have no clue as to what their tax money is being spent on. ‘It was big news,’ wrote Williams and Madden, ‘when George Bush junior said in a speech in February 2001, that he would challenge the military status quo by developing new technologies and by significantly increasing spending, for the current budget of no less than 300 billion.’

Billions of people everywhere start the 21st century with daily worries of where their next meal will come from. Many hundreds of millions of fellow men are unable to find work and barely survive in extreme poverty. They have hardly a future to look forward to, either for themselves or their loved ones. Yankees seem mostly oblivious to the despair of billions in a world they share. Developing nations owe hundreds of billions of dollars to Washington. The world's poor will never be able to meet their debts. The Club of Rome already warned in the seventies about limits to growth. Of course, everything is finite, from our very own lives to what the planet can offer in terms of food, water and resources. We must handle the earth with extreme care, particularly in view of future generations. Americans simply continue their merry ways having no idea about the plight of peoples everywhere. There is no more appropriate way to demonstrate the prevailing madness among Ugly Americans, than to conclude this report by what Washington considers absolute priorities. I am quoting the figures (in million dollars) from the us Department of Defense budget only concerning money allocated for research in advanced technology and development for the year 2001.

This Pentagon list underscores a warning Lord Chalfont, former British Minister of Defense, sounded during an interview I had in London with him. ‘It is clearly unavoidable,’ he said, ‘to continuously invent new weapon systems and not put them to the test sooner of later.’ Of course, this is what the invisible government has been doing all along, like recently in Iraq, Yugoslavia, Sudan, Afghanistan and Columbia. Which nation and people will serve as the next Guinea-pigs for the computer playing generals in Washington?
