To all advocates of war
....whatever the reason
and whatever the side
NATO's killing of civilians is hardly the answer to Milosevic's ethnic cleansing tactics. Regardless of background, historic or ethnic, a life is still a life and NATO or Milosevic cannot grant it back.

Can anyone tell me the difference between Milosevic's forces killing and NATO forces killing?

And since there have been a few postings of Dylan's songs. Here's one for the NATO killing machine supporting hypocrites who are as guilty as NATO by their associated feelings.

Thoughts and feelings go out to all ..... Serbs, Kosovars and all humanity who have people killing ON THEIR BEHALF without having ONCE BEING ASKED!!!

WITH GOD ON OUR SIDE

Oh my name it is nothin'
My age it means less
The country I come from
Is called the Midwest
I's taught and brought up there
The laws to abide
And that land that I live in
Has God on its side.

Oh the history books tell it
They tell it so well
The cavalries charged
The Indians fell
The cavalries charged
The Indians died
Oh the country was young
With God on its side.

Oh the Spanish-American
War had its day
And the Civil War too
Was soon laid away
And the names of the heroes
I's made to memorize
With guns in their hands
And God on their side.

Oh the First World War, boys
It closed out its fate
The reason for fighting
I never got straight
But I learned to accept it
Accept it with pride
For you don't count the dead
When God's on your side.

When the Second World War
Came to an end
We forgave the Germans
And we were friends
Though they murdered six million
In the ovens they fried
The Germans now too
Have God on their side.

I've learned to hate Russians
All through my whole life
If another war starts
It's them we must fight
To hate them and fear them
To run and to hide
And accept it all bravely
With God on my side.

But now we got weapons
Of the chemical dust
If fire them we're forced to
Then fire them we must
One push of the button
And a shot the world wide
And you never ask questions
When God's on your side.

In a many dark hour
I've been thinkin' about this
That Jesus Christ
Was betrayed by a kiss
But I can't think for you
You'll have to decide
Whether Judas Iscariot
Had God on his side.

So now as I'm leavin'
I'm weary as Hell
The confusion I'm feelin'
Ain't no tongue can tell
The words fill my head
And fall to the floor
If God's on our side
He'll stop the next war.

Bob Dylan



STOP THE WAR
STOP IT NOW!

Bob, that's what Albanians are saying. CNN ( that's only media you seem to respect ) was showing KLA on the border all saying they are going in to Kosovo. That confirms what Serbian television is saying. Armed Albanians trying to ilegally enter Yugoslavia and they are fightinh them. If they are attacking from Albania they attact back. What's so strange about this I do not understand.

Jack London, I will get back to you on that question, earlier in the day. Have to review it and think about so I do not write nonsense. And about media. There is so many lies. Especially about two conwoy bombings. First they blamed Serbs. Then they admitted hitting one conwoy and of course regret it. They are trying to hide the other incident ( using their words ) which all journalists know it happened. And yet more, they are doubting the number of victims. And for their excuse; this is so perverted; a man whos wife, both parents and sister was killed in the NATo bombing was supposed to say : I know a pilot from a democratic country would not do that to us. But if we did we forgive him. Let's just be human beings and think how we would react. Would you be able to forgive so easily ( few hours after the incident ) someone who has killed four members of your closest family? This is cheap propaganda.

I m sorry i had to change name, but ok never mind i only want to know this about your last message i think it was ment for JACK.
You say and right you are it is not easy to forgive if your closest family was just killed, but why is it so strange for me then to still be angry?
I don;t hate anymore i used to when it just happened but im still angry.

Yes it was meant for Jack. I do not mind you chaning your name if that's what you wish to do. Some people can not present arguments but threats. I understand why you want to avoid it.
Emina, I never said you don't have a right to be angry and I do understand your anger. You must admit I always gave you the right to your feelings and your anger. And you of all people should know that NATO statement was a big lie. I do not want to change your mind ( not that I think I can anyway ). I just want to present my opinions and my arguments. That's what this message board should be all about.
