This is a document in Serbian
and English
where you can find various
information concerning
the NATO military action
against Serbia.
It happened in a peasant land
on the hills of the Balkan,
a troop of students
died a martyr's death
in a single day.
They were born
in the same year,
their school days spent alike,
taken to the same
school festivities,
vaccinated for the same diseases,
and all died on the same day.
It happened in a peasant land
on the hills of the Balkan,
a troop of students
died a martyr's death
in a single day.
And fifty-five minutes
before the moment of death
this young troop
sat on their school benches
working on their hard exercises,
figuring how far
a traveler could walk...
and so on.
Their thoughts were filled
with the same numbers
and on their notebooks, in
schoolbags,
there lay a senseless number
of D's and A's.
A handful of equal dreams
and secrets
of patriotism and love
hid in the depths of their
pockets,
and it seemed to everyone
that they would run
for a long
for a very long time
beneath the blue sky
till they find all the answers
in the world.
It happened in a peasant land
on the hills of the Balkan,
a troop of students
died a heroic death
in a single day.
Whole rows of boys
hand in hand
from their final class
peacefully went to meet the
firing squad
as if death were nothing.
Whole rows of friends
in the same moment rose
to their eternal abode.

A "PS" to Special TiM GW Bulletin on Kosovo Crisis:
Day 3, Update
If you want to add your voice of support to those who think that we should "Drop Clinton, Not Bombs," on Serbia, check out what's happening in your home towns. And then join us in this fight against this Neo-Nazi Washington administration. Or organize a protest of your own, in your own community.
After all, isn't Washington supposed to be the government "of the people, by the people, and for the people?"
Another one... Just got this e-mail from a TiM reader in Seattle, WA, in response to our above e-mail:
"A demonstration is planned in Seattle for Saturday March 27 at 3:00 pm at the Westlake Mall in downtown Seattle. It is being organized by a variety of people, not just the Serbian-Americans."
Good for you, Washingtonians!
And another one from South Africa...
"Today, at 6PM local time, there will be a protest in Johannesburg, South Africa," a TiM reader reported. Looks like the "New World Order" may be soon disintegrating into a "New World Disorder?"

1. Anti-NATO Raids Protesters Arrested
PARIS, Mar. 26 - Once upon a time, France was a bastion of freedom, a nation which gave us Miss Liberty as its salute to the American Revolution. Today, the Chirac-cum-Vichy NWO France seems to be once again falling back to her old imperial ways, which caused its own revolution in 1789. What follows is a translation of a report which we've just received from a French TiM reader:
"We tried today to organize a demonstration in Paris, in front of Quai d'Orsay, the French Foreign Ministry. We planned it for noon today (Thursday). But, soon enough, we received word via the TV that the French government had banned such a demonstration.
Still, those of us who have been demonstrating since 1991, and know each other by sight, came anyway, despite the ban. I would say, there were about 200 of us. Since that was such a small number, we didn't even bother to demonstrate. Nevertheless, the police arrested us, and threw us into three buses.
We were taken to a police building in the 14th district, where we were interrogated. The whole ordeal lasted about three hours. And we spent most of that time in a police van, jammed in like sardines.
I have to note at this point that there were many Frenchmen among us, who came to give the Serbs their spontaneous support. All of them were SHOCKED by the fact that we were all arrested. In the end, a French academic also showed up at the police HQ to give us his support.
2. Sloppy, Sloppy... Another U.S./NATO Lie Exposed by Its Own Photo
TORONTO, Mar. 26 - NATO today released the picture of, what they said was a Yugoslav MIG 29 shot down over Bosnia:
As you can see in this picture (check with TiM if you want to have it uploaded), the remains of the airplane shown on Canadian CTV, bear LATIN and ENGLISH words:
"ANNUAL INSP C/7 ..."
No doubt, the Russian made MIG-29 would have had the Russian (or maybe Serbian) words, certainly written in CYRILIC alphabet, not in English or Latin alphabet?, our Canadian correspondent wondered.
Indeed. So as we had suggested earlier on in our Special Bulletins, whenever you hear of a NATO claim that it had shot down a Serbian plane, figure that one of your sons or daughters may have just gone to heaven.
Which is not only a tragedy. It is a travesty of justice.
Drop Clinton, not bombs!
