British island is drowning in lies March 30, 1999
Robin Cook, British Foreign Minister, announces extended military campaign on Yugoslavia. Caught in a hasty adventure of an aggression on a sovereign country, British government is desperately trying to explain the unexplainable to the confused public opinion, but, obviously, with less and less success. However, yesterday on a press conference, Cook presented another news: concentration camps in Kosovo. There are no proofs for that, but it serves well to confuse the public! In a series of interviews on yesterday's press conference, Cook only didn't give green light to committing ground forces - a thesis on which war lobby in London during last 48 hours frenetically insists, supported by media under control of financial magnate Rupert Mardock. In the meantime, the whole Britain is caught in the flames of public debate in which political, military and media individuals are clearly lined up in two fronts. The line of blood and bombing is headed by the "liberals" - Tony Blair, Robin Cook, George Robertson, colonel Bobby Stewart (former commander of British troops in Bosnia), William Haig (opposition leader), Paddy Ashdown, leader of liberals, worn-out actress Vanessa Redgrave... "The refusal front" is leaded by the group of Parliament representatives of the Blair's laborites' left wing and the group of representatives from Haig's Conservative Party. On the head of it are the parliamentary veterans Tony Ben, Allan Clark (former Minister of Defense), lord Denis Hilly, lord Carington and the whole series of most respectful media individuals. Among them is also the "Times" columnist William Rees Moor, who intervened yesterday with a long comment under title "Is that the fair war?" "If Tony Blair would go to Russia today, he could be delivered in Belgrade for Nuremberg type of crime - starting an aggressive war..." Bombing policy of British Prime Minister Tony Blair got last night the hardest political blow until now. The most powerful party in Scotland - The National Party of Scotland - strongly disassociated from its country's aggression on Yugoslavia. The leader of the party, Alex Salmond appeared in front of TV cameras and compared the bombing of Belgrade to Hitler's bombing of London in WWII. "Why should we believe that Serbs would react differently than we did when Hitler bombed us? This is an action of suspicious legality, but above all an unforgivable foolish act", said Salmond. This is the first case that one party represented in Parliament on Westminster condemns Blair's aggression. Soon after this Scottish nationalists were joined by the National Party of Wells, Plaid Cymru.
