In
the much talked-about Chris Wallace-Bill Clinton interview on Fox
News Sunday, Clinton made several pointed insistences to
Wallace that "at least I tried" to confront terror. This
of course implies that the Clinton administration gave a damn in
the first place. But how does one reconcile that with the fact
that this man allied us with al-Qaeda in the Balkans?
That Clinton would
consider an obvious question asking why he didn't go after
bin Laden a "hit job" is high comedy. This diva, unused
to being challenged by the media except on sexual matters,
can't even appreciate that in seven years, not one interviewer has
ever asked him a single question about why he allied us with al-Qaeda-trained
terrorists who fabricated a genocide in the Kosovo province of
Serbia, in a war of aggression against a multi-ethnic European
nation that never threatened any of its neighbors, much less the
United States.
On page 225
of his new book In the Line of Fire, Pervez Musharraf,
President of Pakistan, writes that it is believed that Omar
Sheikh, the mastermind behind reporter Daniel Pearl's kidnapping,
"was recruited by the British intelligence agency MI-6. It is
said that MI-6 persuaded him to take an active part in
demonstrations against Serbian aggression in Bosnia and even sent
him to Kosovo to join the jihad."
Here we have
a Moslem leader admitting what our own leaders will not: that with
the U.S.-led mischief in the Balkans, the West was facilitating,
supporting, and financing a jihad in Europe. Musharraf's statement
is consistent with the 9/11 Commission's finding
that the "groundwork for a true terrorist network was being
laid" in 1990s Bosnia, as former Senate Republican Policy
Committee analyst James Jatras described it in his testimony at
the Milosevic trial in 2004.
And in the
Commission Report this has stayed, never to be spoken of since by
any of our hard-nosed journalists of varying political stripes who
dutifully "question" politicians' motivations for war.
Understandably, they wouldn't want to alienate the President of
Peace by bringing up not only that he didn't go after bin Laden,
but that he did his bidding. For they would get more than the
knee-poking that Chris Wallace got.
But as early
as 1997, there was a Senate Republican Policy Committee report
titled "Clinton-Approved Iranian Arms Transfers Help Turn
Bosnia into Militant Islamic Base." And in 2003 Gregory
Copley, president of International Strategic Studies Association,
wrote an analysis
titled "Bosnian Official Links With Terrorism, Including
9/11, Become Increasingly Apparent as Clinton, Clark Attempt to
Justify Support of Bosnian Militants."
MI-6's
involvement, meanwhile, is more than just "believed" or
"said" to have taken place, and Sheikh wasn't the
only one the Brits recruited to wage a terror campaign in
Yugoslavia. See this Fox News video/transcript
from Dayside just three weeks after London got a taste of
what it (and we) gave Belgrade.
As the UK Guardian
reported
late last year, "Britain now faces its own blowback:
Intelligence interests may thwart the July bombings
investigation."
It is
significant that in Musharraf's book Daniel Pearl is mentioned on
the same page as the Western-promoted Kosovo jihad -- as it is
that Pearl's kidnapper fought in Kosovo. For it was Daniel Pearl
who first brought us the following revelation about the alleged
Serb "aggression": "[A]llegations -- indiscriminate
mass murder, rape camps, crematoriums, mutilation of the dead --
haven't been borne out in the six months since NATO troops entered
Kosovo. Ethnic-Albanian militants, humanitarian organizations,
NATO, and the news media fed off each other to give genocide
rumors credibility. Now, a different picture is emerging."
The article was printed on the day the jihad was scheduled to come
to our shores but was averted -- December 31, 1999.
In
retrospect, the Serbian "aggression" Musharraf mentions
appears to have been uncannily similar to the "Israeli
aggression" that we hear so much about -- that is to say, a
military response to provocations that are designed precisely to
elicit such response, to be followed by international condemnation
and, next, international intervention (which then enables the
jihad to proceed unhampered, as happened in Bosnia and, with even
greater success, in Kosovo).
Forward to
pages 242-43 of Musharraf's book: "Before the subway
operation, however, al-Qaeda ... decided not to use too many Arab
hijackers, to avoid suspicion. Instead, it planned to use hardened
European Moslem veterans of the Bosnian jihad ..."
Again, a
Moslem leader broaching the subject that our own leaders and media
have blacked out: Bosnia was likewise a jihad on whose side we
fought -- against the Serbian nation, whose people saved 500
downed U.S. pilots during WWII, at their own peril.
That
much-hyped (and ever-mutating) figure of 8,000 Bosnian-Muslim
bodies in Srebrenica ensures all the immunity the former Clinton
officials could hope for, by silencing any poor-taste, would-be
questioners. Thanks to which Hillary Clinton -- who, despite her
unofficial capacity at the time, green-lit the 1999 Kosovo war
crime three days before we embarked on it -- stands a serious
chance of becoming a presidential candidate and reinstating the
band of war criminals from her husband's administration: Albright,
Holbrooke, Clark, Berger and Cohen, et. al.
Peter
Brock's new book Media
Cleansing: Dirty Reporting reveals that of the 8,000
Srebrenica "dead," 5,000 were Moslem troops who fled the
enclave before the Serbs took Srebrenica -- after regularly
ambushing nearby Serb villages -- to join other fighting. Their
families claimed they had been killed, but 3,000 have since
registered to vote in elections (though some of them are no doubt
among the voting dead). The 2,000 to 3,000 bodies that have been
unearthed belong to people who died during all three years of
fighting around Srebrenica -- not just from the time the Serbs
took Srebrenica. Nor is it clear how many of the bodies are Moslem
and how many are Serbian. Brock's messier version of the otherwise
tidy "8,000 slaughtered" event is consistent with this
easy-to-read "Srebrenica
Fact Sheet," as it is with this Globe and Mail article
last year by the United Nations' first peacekeeping commander in
Sarajevo, retired Major General Lewis MacKenzie.
The 2,000 to
3,000 count is on par with the number of Serb civilians killed in
and around Srebrenica, but no agency was tasked with counting dead
Serbs and no humanity cries out for or commemorates dead Serbs.
Indeed, upon being convicted of war crimes at the Hague,
Srebrenica's Serb-hunter-in-chief Naser Oric was immediately
released -- and got a hero's welcome
home. As most
Serb-killers
do
before pursuing political careers
in the region.
Unfortunately,
the Bush policy on the Balkans has been to default to the
pro-terror policies of the Clinton era, while the still-powerful
Clinton cronies, including Wesley Clark and Richard Holbrooke,
have been very busy burying their defecation in Kosovo. To that
end, Congress, the State Department, and almost every last NGO
remain committed to Kosovo independence by early 2007 -- that is,
to the establishment of a mono-ethnic (Moslem) mafia-terror state
headed by indicted war criminals. All the while, the original
architects of this nail in our own coffin continue to wax
authoritative on talk shows, freely touting their "successful
war" in which they "stopped a genocide" -- knowing
the statement will go unchallenged. And it does.
Though the
dots remain purposefully unconnected, history, karma, and
consequence prove that what happens in the Balkans doesn't stay in
the Balkans. Witness Madrid,
London,
Netanya
and, as the Commission found, even 9/11.
As Copley
wrote of Brock's Media Cleansing: "That there were
genuine initial misunderstandings on the part of the world's media
with regard to the Balkan situation is clear. But the fact that
the media -- on whose judgments governments made policies --
allowed itself [sic] to be duped by propagandists, and that
editors then refused to recant when their errors became obvious:
there lies the essence of Brock's indictment … If Watergate was
the modern starting point for agenda-based reporting, then the
Balkan wars showed that, unchecked, the media could, without
accountability, bring about the downfall of nations.
"The
resultant emergence of terrorist coordinating centers in the
Balkans, intimately involved in the 9/11, Madrid, and London
attacks, can be laid directly at the door of the editors who
allowed bias to rule their coverage of the Balkan wars. We have
yet to see the full consequences of the media's shameful
unprofessionalism in the Balkan wars of the 1990s. Peter Brock's
book should be the basis for both Congressional and independent
media enquiries."
