Content and Structure

Scope and Content (Abstract)
The video collection of the Balkan Archive is unique in the sense that it combines a wide variety of materials relating to the war in former Yugoslavia. It covers the period from 1990 (and, in some cases, earlier footage) to the end of that decade. Balkan Archive include television recordings and documentaries from most of the republics (and subsequent warring sides) of the former Federation, presenting extremely divergent views and versions of the conflict; television coverage of the events by the Western media (mostly American, British, and German), and journalistic and amateur footage that has captured the etnic cleansing, mass murdering, genocide in all its immediacy. It also contains several narrative films that shed light on the conflict, its origins and its aftermath, including Theo Angelopoulous' Award-winning film "Ulysses' Gaze."

The Balkan Archive is of great interest to researchers of natioanlism studies and history of the Balkans. Trial proceedings of ICTY, chronicling the proceedings of the International War Crime Tribunal in Hague, may be of value to students of international law, while the television treatment of the same events, from the Croatian and then Bosnian war in 1991-95 to the NATO bombings in 1999, can serve as a source to those working in media studies and analyzing such subjects as propaganda and agenda setting. The collection, in its entirety, will be extremely useful to specialists in political science and modern history.

Notes

Note
One factor that may complicate the work of future researchers is that detailed description of the contents is not always available, and in these cases has not been included in the electronic catalogue. Needless to say, the knowledge of Serbo-Croatian, Bosnian and other relevant language is a prerequisite, since most of the locally produced television programs do not have voiceover or subtitles. Video cassettes of the Balkan Archives -- 350-1-1: from 1327 to1531 (250 Beta Sp video cassettes) with Croatian evening news programs are unprocessed. They're temporarily moved to fonds 902. After electronic catalogue (database) is done, this part of the Balkan Archives is to be merged with those 1326 itmes in 350-1-1. Zsuzsanna Zadori

Margaret Larson interviewed Radovan Karadzic, the leader of the Bosnian Serbs, during his stay in New York for scheduled peace negotiations. Karadzic expresses his desire to get an autonomous region for the Bosnian Serbs, in order to "get out of any possibility for being dominated by the Muslim community." He denies all reports suggesting Bosnian Serb involvement in crimes of mass rape and ethnic cleansing. It is "a big mistake of media to buy this kind of story," says Karadzic. He characterizes the war in Bosnia as "the worst kind of inter-ethnic and inter-religious civilian war." Karadzic comments on his restricted status in the U.S.

Heart of Yugoslavia / Herz Jugoslawiens
ORF reporter Claudia Neuhauser interviews citizens in pre-war Bosnia for their opinions on an independent Bosnia. As the war in Croatia escalates and the Yugoslav federation falls apart, the Bosnian government application for international recognition and independence from Yugoslavia is pending. The report cites the extensive ethnic and cultural mix of Bosnia's 4.2 million people: 44% Muslim, 31% Serb, and 17% Croat. Ejup Ganic of the Bosnian government explains how Bosnia's mixed cultural and ethnic heritage makes it a unique area. Ganic also states that recognition of an independent Bosnia is the solution to the Yugoslav crisis. The creation of Tito's communist Yugoslavia is then detailed. Jajce is exemplified as being a model for a Yugoslavia where all nationalities enjoy the same rights. Interviewed is Radovan Karadzic, leader of the Serbian Democratic Party, who states that an independent Bosnia is unacceptable to the Bosnian Serbs. According to Karadzic's plan, Bosnian should be split up, with the 600,000 Bosnian Serbs receiving 60% of the territory which would remain under the auspices of Yugoslavia. His plan also includes the designation of a bridge in Sarajevo which would separate Serbian Bosnia from the independent Bosnia. The report explains that the war in Croatia has affected the Bosnian economy whose monthly inflation is 20%, which will not change as long as Bosnia is a part of Yugoslavia. Banja Luka, the capital of the self-proclaimed Bosnian (Serb) Krajina, is then analyzed, where soldiers are a common sight on the streets, and the government receives direction from Yugoslavia. Finally, Claudia Neuhauser explains that the film crew was arrested by the Banja Luka police. At the police station the crew was interrogated, accused of Croat espionage, and their film material confiscated by the military police. Statements are made by three unidentified Bosnian men, two unidentified Bosnian women, and Habib Hadziosmanovic, a former partisan. Footage includes a Bosnian Muslim graveyard, a Bosnian Muslim praying in a Mosque, JNA soldiers, landscapes of Bosnia, Jajce waterfall, the room where Tito proclaimed Yugoslavia a new country, a sculpture of Tito, streets of Jajce, a Jajce marketplace, a map of Bosnia's pre-war ethnic makeup, a map of Karadzic's plan for the division of Bosnia, Sarajevo's pre-war National Library, a grocery store (presumably in Sarajevo), apartment buildings in Sarajevo, a poster of Captain (Kapetan) Dragan, and JNA soldiers in Banja Luka.

The Other Balkan / Der andere Balkan
The focus of the report is Macedonia and its newly-gained independence. The main issues covered are Greek animosity towards an independent Macedonia, and questions regarding the Serbian and Albanian minorities. Macedonian President Kiro Gligorov comments on the issue, stating that Macedonian people only want their independence. Greece opposes Macedonia's independence, contending that Macedonia is a Greek territory. Gligorov further states that the economy remains unstable and that Greece's economic embargo on Macedonia conflicts with EU free-trade agreements. The report further states that after gaining independence from Yugoslavia, Gligorov's goal for Macedonia is to show that peaceful coexistence in the Balkans is possible. The difficulty for Macedonians to receive visas from Greece is also mentioned. Elizabeta Dadovska, a Macedonian born in Greece, talks about her inability to visit the Greek village where she was born and partially raised. Her mother Sofija Kuleva and Vasil Kulev, her brother, comment on Greece's frustration with Macedonia. Both Jana Popovska, a teacher, and Goko Gosevski, an Ohrid museum curator, give brief accounts of Macedonian history and independence. Gosevksi states that the worst aggression Macedonia ever suffered was from Serbs in WWII. The report claims that Serbia has always regarded Macedonia as a colony, a part of land which has to be protected. Todorska Kozewska, a Macedonian worker married to a Serb, talks about being taught that Macedonia exists only as a part of Yugoslavia. Sahade Aliv, an Albanian girl, talks about the oppression Albanians endure in Macedonia. Also interviewed is Naser Zyberi, leader of the Albanian Party for Progress, who states that although Albanians are constitutionally equals to other ethnicites, they do not feel treated as equals. The report ends with a brief account of how farmers are coping with the economic crisis. In the past, they were seen as poor, but currently, villages are seen as being fully capable of fending for themselves. Other footage includes the night of Macedonia's independence celebration, St. Clement Orthodox Monastery, antique furniture of the Urania trade family, Macedonian villagers, and Albanian houses built within Macedonia with money earned by Albanian men working in Western countries.

Sarajevo in a Chokehold / Sarajewo im Würgegriff
This broadcast focuses on problems and dilemmas faced by Sarajevo as a besieged city. The report shows empty grocery stores and how the general infrastructure has collapsed. Frustration with Europe and the U.S. is apparent in interviews with civilians, soldiers, and businessmen. The report states that Bosnians were the strongest believer in multi-ethnic cooperation, and therefore the war comes to them as a nightmare. The report gives an example of a Sarajevo building whose inhabitants decided to create a multi-ethnic self-defense system. A young Serbian man talks about the ethnically mixed makeup of the tenants. Two ethnically unidentified men exclaim that it is the war that made them aware of their neighbors' ethnicity. They consider the three ethnicities to be all the same people. An older Muslim refugee woman gives an account of having her home destroyed by the army. Interviewed is also Bozidar Matic, president of Energoinvest, the largest Bosnian company. He talks about the general disbelief that U.S./EU mediation between the three parties (Serbs, Croats, and Muslims) will bring about any solutions. Ejup Ganic, member of the Bosnian parliament., states that under the leadership of Milosevic, Serbia has managed to destroy the dream of Yugoslav unity by wanting too much control. Other footage includes: Bosnian soldiers trying to recapture a building in Sarajevo, pictures of Sarajevo's old town [Bascarsija], refugees cramped into a school watched by Bosnian forces, people waiting in line to get food supplies, empty Sarajevo grocery stores, and Energoinvest.

The Next Crisis / Die nächste Krise
This broadcast focuses on Kosovo as an area where conflict may potentially reappear. The report details how Kosovo is revered by Serbs as the cradle of Serbian culture, featuring a brief historical account of Kosovo and the significance of the Battle of Kosovo Polje in 1389. The modern state of the economy is then focused on, showing the dire poverty of the region and how the illegal trading in foreign hard currency is some of the only work available. Having always been the poorest part of Yugoslavia, Kosovo's ethnic make-up is then examined, detailing showing how many Serbs have emigrated to cities in Serbia proper, creating an even larger ethnic Albanian majority. The report talks about the police state existing in Kosovo and the ethnic Albanians' desire to gain full independence. The report includes an interview with Ibrahim Rugova, ethnic Albanian leader of the LDK; several other ethnic Albanian leaders; and Serbian officials in Kosovo. The report details how the Serbian Orthodox Church aids in the oppression of the Albanian majority, featuring interviews with Fathers Atanasije Rakita and George Trajkovic, Serbian Orthodox priests in the Prizren diocese, who state that Serbs have deeper roots in Kosovo and that it has always been Serbian territory. According to the priests, Muslims have been continuously endangering Serbian churches and their priesthood with little tolerance towards Christianity—especially, they claim, after the 300,000 Albanian Muslims settled after WWII, offsetting the Serbs' historical ethnic majority. Alushi A. Gashi, an Albanian doctor and human rights activist, states that Serbia has created a state of apartheid in Kosovo, experiencing oppression in every aspect of daily life. A Serbian female student at the University of Pristina is also interviewed, saying that, as a member of the Serbian minority, she feels very unsafe in Kosovo. Radivoje Popovic, Serbian President of the University of Pristina, claims that demands for political secession are coming from the Albanian side, namely out of ethnic Albanian student organizations, and that there will be no negotiations over the issue of to whom Kosovo belongs. Ibrahim Rugova gives his view on how Serbian propaganda has been used to skew the reality that Serbs have succeeded in controlling all public institutions in Kosovo and forbidding official use of the Albanian language. He also touches on Kosovar Albanians' desire to be an independent state and the possibility of uniting with Albania. Other footage includes monasteries in the Prizren area (Decani); the ruins in Kosovo Polje; street life and markets in Kosovo; Albanian writers and intellectuals meeting at the Literary Society of Kosovo; impoverished living conditions among Albanian families in their homes; and Albanian children being taught in private homes.

The tape begins with a narrator proclaiming that the "one-and-a-half-year rule of HDZ (Croatian Democratic Union) over Vukovar resulted in horrific terror, such as: hundreds of dead, wounded, and maimed civilians; many destroyed families, resettled and humiliated citizens; thousands of elderly, women, and children in refuge; cruel crimes; [HDZ's] bestial free reign; countless human tragedies; destruction, and despair."

ABC Nightline: Children of Bosnia
David Marash reports on the UN bureaucratic logjam which has been preventing the evacuation of seriously ill and wounded children from Sarajevo. He cites the specific case of Irma Hadzimuratovic, a young girl suffering from shrapnel wounds and meningitis. Her doctor, Dr. Edo Jaganjovic, explains how he is unable to treat her due to a lack of basic necessities such as lab work and electricity. Marash explains that Irma's doctor would like to get her out of the Sarajevo hospital, but that a bureaucratic logjam is preventing him from doing so. Marash explains that in order for Irma to have been transferred, her case would have to have been approved by a UN committee—but they concluded that she was too ill to travel, despite never examining her. Interviewed is her father, Ramiz Hadzimuratovic, who details the extensive bureaucracy he had to go through in order to get Irma to a London hospital. Marash then details the efforts of various news organizations, such as "Oslobodjenje," a French News agency, SKY News, and the BBC in helping out in making passports and showing the world reports of Irma's suffering. The report cites UNICEF statistics, showing that since April of 1992, 13,932 children were wounded, and 1450 children killed (in Bosnia). The second part of the report contains a Ted Koppel interview with David Marash, who explains that Irma's case has changed UN regulations regarding the evacuation of children. Marash further explains that the Bosnia war is about nationalists who want to define the world according to ones religious and ethnic background.

War Crimes
This report documents two war crimes which have occurred in Croatia and which are being investigated by the IWCT. So far, 3,500 people have been killed in 20 separate atrocities, the report states. The analysis begins by detailing a mass execution of 24 Serbs from the Gospic area by Croat soldiers. After their snow-covered bodies were found near the frontlines, autopsies were performed by army pathologist Dr. Zoran Stankovic. Croatia's government acknowledged the killings, but claimed that they were carried out by renegade soldiers. The report shows pre-war pictures of several killed Serbs, focusing on Gospic deputy prosecutor Djordje Kalen and his wife Mirjana. Their two sons, Bosko and Drasko, are interviewed stating that they cannot comprehend that fellow town folk murdered their parents. Also shown is a pre-war picture of company lawyer Stank Smiljanic, whose wife Milica gives a statement. A statement is made by Dr. Zoran Stankovic. Footage of the burned bodies is included, as well as amateur footage of a Serb soldier who found the bodies near the frontline. The second part of the report details the war crime at Luvas, Croatia, where 50 Croat men were forced to walk over a minefield by Serb forces (what forces?). The bodies of the 18 men who were killed are presumed to be buried along with 122 other villagers, allegedly killed by the Serbs, in a mass grave near the Catholic cemetery. Two men, Stefan Peulic and Ivica Filic (sp), survived. Stefan Peulic was badly wounded after stepping on a mine. Ivica Filic logged the names of 67 friends and neighbors he helped bury. The report then explains that those names are all input into a UN database, where they will be used in the trials of war criminals. Ljubljana, Slovenia, has been chosen as the first choice for where the Tribunal trials can be conducted, but a definite date can not be set while the war is in progress.

The Challenge / Die Herausforderung
Report discusses upcoming elections in Serbia (1993). The focus is on the Serbian opposition, in particular on Vuk Draskovic, leader of DEPOS (coalition of Serbian opposition parties), and his election campaign in Southern Serbia. The report shows the broad support Draskovic has throughout Serbia, even though a protest by Milosevic supporters is staged at the Grdelica [village] meeting. Several interviews are conducted with supporters of Draskovic. Dragan Stojanovic, a farmer in the impoverished Dadince village, claims that Milosevic made numerous promises which were not fulfilled. He states that life in Dadince has always been hard, but that it has gotten worse in the post-Tito era. Stojanovic talks about the Milosevic propaganda system responsible for the spreading of rumors that Draskovic is a thief. He gives an account of how teachers are distributing posters to their students in support of Milosevic which they are to hold up during a rally. He also talks about how the information blockade and the Tito-era has made people very skeptic towards politicians. The report then talks about life in Bosiljegrad, a town with a large Bulgarian minority, where unemployment is very high, and people are generally afraid of Milosevic. An unidentified man states that there is no future for young people, even those that are educated. Another unidentified man states that the war is eating up all the money and wrecking the economy. He further says that there are generally no incentives for investment and a feeling of general hopelessness presides over the future. Vuk Draskovic is briefly interviewed towards the end of the report. He talks about his expectations for the new year, hoping it will bring about prosperity and a dialogue between Yugoslavia's former republics. Footage of Draskovic support among the people is presented, as well as of Draskovic lighting candles in the Grdelica church and having a snowball fight. There is also footage of impoverished village life in Dadince.

Democracy in the War / Demokratie im Krieg
Report talks about the freedom of speech in Croatian media. There is a plethora of newspapers which all serve various interests. Many journalists were fired after the HDZ (ruling party in Croatia) came to power; their colleagues suspect it was because they were former communists. The report also talks about the HDZ losing power to new opposition parties which serve various interest groups. Opposition parties are very small, generally serve various interest groups, and are in constant disagreements. Croatia is experiencing deep economic divisions and many minorities fear Croatian nationalism. The question of personal ID and minority discrimination is also discussed. The economy is further burdened by the 700,000 Bosnian refugees. Interviews are conducted with Franjo Tudjman, Drazen Budisa, Marinko Bozic, Ruza Jokic, Milan Djukic, and several other civilians. Franjo Tudjman, Croatia's president, states that many newspapers criticize him and his party, but that nothing happens to the journalists. He states that the people who write those articles are journalists who used to work for the old communist newspapers. Marinko Bozic, a journalist, states that Croatian TV is heavily censored. Bozic also notes that TV has helped HDZ get into power and win the election. Furthermore, this TV censorship has damaged Croatia's image in the world, Bozic explains. Several passersby are interviewed, giving brief opinions about Croatia. Overall, they state that the political structure has changed, and that Croatia is working towards democracy and on a road to success. Drazen Budisa, a member of the Croat Social Liberal Party, states that the HDZ is not what it used to be and that people are showing support for other parties. Ruza Jokic, a Serb by nationality, gives an account of having her Croat citizenship taken away without any explanation. She talks about the difficulty of not having ID papers. Milan Djukic, a member of the Serbian Democratic Party, explains the problem of minority discrimination in the acquisition of personal ID papers. He states that it is not the government who discriminates, but that low-ranking clerks use their position to discriminate against minorities. He believes that this must end as Croatia's goal is not to create a state of terror, but that of democracy. Footage of Bosnian refugees, streets of Zagreb, people waiting in line, Zagreb newsstands, and a cabaret performance are available.

Easter Greetings from Pakrac / Ostergrusse aus Pakrac
This report outlines the efforts to rebuild the town of Pakrac after the end of the war in Croatia. Pakrac's ethnic composition of Serbs and Croats is outlined, citing how UN officials managed to establish a dialogue between both sides, allowing for some 4,000 refugees to return to their homes. UN Project Leader Dr. Michael Platzer is interviewed about the project, and he emphasizes that mutual distrust must be done away with. He also asserts the UN's readiness to assist local people in rebuilding their homes, and claims that all that is needed is a firm political agreement allowing refugees to return. The report explains that during the war, Croat forces managed to ethnically cleanse 170 Serb villages in Western Slavonija. In his interview, Veljko Dzakula, of the Serbian Regional Counsel, explains that the primary goal is for all people to be able to return to their homes. He further states that war criminals need to be removed from Pakrac and West Slavonija in general; and, finally, that a political dialogue needs to be established between all the people living in Pakrac. However, he states, this dialogue must happen outside of the state because there have been no guarantees that Serbs can live safely in Croatia. The report then shows a wedding of Serbs guest workers in Pakrac. Next interviewed is Franjo Sirac, Croat vice-mayor of Pakrac, who explains that Pakrac was a cultural center before the war, and that during the war 90% of the infrastructure was destroyed. He states that it was destroyed by the Serb army who wanted Pakrac to be the capital of the Western Krajina. The report gives a detailed analysis of all the reconstruction going on in Pakrac. As stated in the report, few civilians have the finances necessary to rebuild their homes; the reconstruction of public buildings, such as the local fire station, middle school, and train station is financially backed by the UN. One of the construction foremen interviewed outlines the locals' goal rebuilding every building in Pakrac, but that the priority is to rebuild schools, nurseries, and the hospital. The report states that reconstruction of the town would be significantly faster if more financial backing was available. Other footage included: destroyed houses and public buildings in Pakrac, pictures of the residents, destroyed hospital rooms, people stacking building blocks, and a destroyed apartment building.

Bloody Bosnia: The Roots of War
This documentary presents an overview of events in former Yugoslavia that led to the outbreak of war. From political maneuvering by Serbian politicians within the Yugoslav federation, to the ultimate secession of Slovenia and Croatia, the steps to war are retraced. The program explores the historical events that led to the formation of Yugoslavia, including archival footage from both the pre-WWI and WWII eras (the same footage is seen in tape 287). Tito's unique formation of Yugoslavia is focused on, showing how nationalism rose in the wake of his death, beginning with events in Kosovo and Slovenia. The breakdown of the Yugoslav federation is then detailed step by step, featuring interviews with the leading politicians from Slovenia, Croatia, Serbia, Bosnia, and Kosovo recalling the events. The documentary shows how Milosevic revoked Kosovo's autonomy and the subsequent protests and strikes that followed. Slovenia's bid for independence shortly thereafter is then highlighted, detailing the Yugoslav federal authority's failed attempt to prevent secession by use of the JNA. Political and social conditions of the republics are chronicled from around the time war breaks.

Wounded Souls: Women of Bosnia-Herzegovina
This film, produced by the Islamic Relief organization, focuses on Bosnian Muslim women. The role and character of Muslim women in Bosnia are both explored, including the ways the war has changed their lives. The report states that the Bosnian Muslim women became a target for abuse because to hurt a woman represents the greatest injury in Muslim culture. The emotional scarring left behind by rape is highlighted throughout. It is explained that Bosnia is the only place where Islam, Orthodox Christianity, and Catholicism are highly intertwined. The early days and months of the war are described as having been the worst for the Bosnian Muslim and Croat population. The Bosnian Muslim population is explained to have suffered by being reduced to refugee camps, after living a life of wealth where they owned houses and numerous livestock. Statements are made by four women, all with their identities concealed, telling of direct rape and abuse. The first woman describes a drunk JNA commander entering her house and ordering her to go to the bedroom. The second woman tells of a young mother who was raped by four Chetniks. The third woman describes the rape she and her four-year-old daughter endured. The fourth woman describes being threatened with a knife and then being raped by four Bosnian Serb soldiers. The fifth woman tells of young girls being systematically raped by drunk Bosnian Serb soldiers, and a sixth woman talks about her inability to comprehend the ethnic hatred, and about being raped in a camp. Three young girls also give testimonies of how their relatives and parents were beaten by Bosnian Serb soldiers. The first girl tells of her house being destroyed by a grenade and being taken up by UNPROFOR soldiers. The second girls talks about her grandfather and her mother being beaten. The third girl talks about her father being beaten (at Ramiz Raganovic's house) and killed. A man is shown admitting to committing rape under the influence of alcohol. A Bosnian Muslim man explains that Bosnians will stand by their women regardless of what has happened. Dr. Yusuf Al Qardawi, an Imam, offers insight into Islam's view on raped women. He also explains the role of the whole Islamic community in regard to helping raped women.

This program opens and closes with a brief promo for Islamic Relief and Mercy International, explaining where donations can be sent. The main thrust of the video is to examine the origins of the Islamic religion and culture in Bosnia and Herzegovina during the Ottoman Empire. This is accomplished using paintings and drawings.

There is a lot of discussion about resistance to an Islamic nation in Europe. Current footage includes discussion with Muslim rape victims, including a story of forced incest; Muslim men suffering from severe malnutrition in prison camps; people fleeing their homes; homes and towns being destroyed; and mothers crying.

An unidentified Muslim woman states that Muslims are constantly being kicked around and that Croats want them out of their country. A young Croat man states that it is not fair for Croatia to be spending millions of dollars on taking care of the Bosnian Muslim refugees when Croats themselves are experiencing economic hardship. An older Croat man explains that Muslims are taking away Croat territory in Bosnia; hence, they should not be helped. A Muslim refugee talks about the open repression where Muslim civilian men are being used for exchange for Croat war prisoners. Aziz Mikic, leader of the Croat Muslim Party, talks about the mistake made by Izetbegovic in trying to make an Islamic republic in Europe.

A unidentified Croat woman talks about the morality of refusing help to a people.

The Many Lives of Arkan / Die Vielen Leben des Arkan
This broadcast profiles Zeljko Raznjatovic, aka "Arkan," notorious leader of the Tigers, a Serbian paramilitary unit. His life is briefly chronicled from his rise as a gangster, wanted by Interpol in many Western European countries, to his activities in the war in the former Yugoslavia as a top paramilitary leader. Arkan's exploits as head of Red Star's fan club are detailed, showing how he was able to recruit individuals from the fan club for his paramilitary units. Arkan's ascent into Serbian politics as a parliamentary representative of Kosovo is also explored. Professor Vladen Vasiljevic describes how Arkan represents a pattern in Serbia since the break up of the former Yugoslavia, "the criminalization of politics and the politicization of criminal activity."

Croatia's Silence / Kroatisches Schweigen
This program focuses on Croatia as a new state, examining its direction under Franjo Tudjman two years after gaining international recognition. At the time of this broadcast, Croatia has begun to lose sympathy as a victim of Serbian aggression and is increasingly seen as an aggressor, reluctant to come to terms with its own fascist past. Tudjman's policy in Bosnia, the historical revisionism of his HDZ party, and the reintroduction of the fascist monetary unit of the Ustasa state all contribute to the scrutiny of the new Croatia. The silence of prominent Croatian politicians is criticized and contrasted by dissidents interviewed such as publisher Slavko Goldstein, Ivan Zvonimir Cicak, and Mira Ljubic-Lorger from Dalmatian Action.

Dogs of War: Mercenaries
This tape is about mercenaries, mostly British, who are fighting in the former Yugoslavia. The program investigates the specific kinds of personalities that thrive in war zones and what has drawn them into the conflict as individuals. The location where the story takes place is the eastern town of Osjek in Croatia. Monday, 6:00 a.m.: 30 men are preparing themselves for battle in the former Yugoslavian civil war between the Serbs and the Croats. Only five of the men have ever been formally trained by any kind of professional army; the other 25 are mainly comprised of individuals who have not been able to function in civilian society well and find the challenge and danger of being a mercenary in Croatia as something rewarding and enjoyable. The first five minutes of the video is an introduction to the surroundings and mindsets of a couple of these men. Kit is the first individual who is formally introduced, and he remains one of the main characters interviewed throughout the video. He is the company commander and leads the other men in the decision-making process, as well as training many of the men for battle. His primary philosophy in training is not to train them to be an army, but instead train them to survive. Carl is an expert in explosives and decided to join this brigade because he thought it would be fun. He had been engaged in war efforts throughout the world, including Sudan, Sri Lanka, and West Africa. He had even been involved in hijacking a plane and kidnapping people in Suriname, which he considered to be one of the most exciting and fulfilling phases of his life. Tuesday: despite there having been a supposed ceasefire since January, in that time 150 people have died. The men are back at company headquarters preparing themselves for battle, as well as showing off the ammunition, such as grenades and automatic weapons, that they have ample access to. There is a red alert but Kit and the company have to wait until they are called in by the guards. This night it does not happen. Introduced to Dave: "Once you live with the people who have gone through so much of the pain and suffering all you want to do is kill for them." "I always wanted to kill someone legally." He is perhaps the craziest of the group and even says himself that he is on the brink of insanity. Display of mutilated bodies and the various atrocities that occurred throughout that region. Briefing of Covert Operations that will be initiated across enemy lines. Eduardo Florez is introduced. He is another one of the lead commanders who helps out Kit. Eduardo is from Spain and was a journalist before he started being a mercenary. He realized that journalism was not a career for him because could not remain neutral for more then a week. After that he clearly chose which side was right and wrong. The objectives of the covert operation are to destroy and take back prisoners. Wednesday: All of the men are gathered down by the lake to go over some practice runs in their inflatable boats. Dave mentions that the access to weapons, grenades, etc. makes him feel like he is in Vietnam or somewhere where the law is simply what they choose it to be. Andy: went AWOL from the British Army. Roy: his mother thinks that he is working at Euro Disney. Tea time: back to headquarters. Kit mentioned that he joined the British Army in 1978 and 30 other men were in his brigade with him. Today, only 10 of those men are still alive. Kit said that he was a vagabond and did not belong in society as a civilian. Said that seeing his wife die a year ago was the hardest thing he has ever seen, and so anything he sees during battle will be easy for him. Thursday: Carl had a drunken exchange with the Spanish Commander Eduardo and decided to leave. There was a call from the guards for them to act as support. After they support the guards they drive through the city to see the damage caused by possible shelling. Kit is trying to figure out where Carl went. He asked everyone in the house until he eventually found out that Eduardo had made a military arrest because he felt that Carl in his drunken outrage was publicly mocking him and disobeying an officer. This was a test for Kit to see if he could keep the morale of his command up and also maintain his own emotions at the same time. Eduardo and Kit meet to discuss the covert operation that is supposed to occur later on in the night. Kit's company has been setting off bombs throughout the city to make it look as though the Serbs are attacking more then they really are. This action will provide justification for the eminent retaliation that is about to occur. Friday: back to main command. Introduced to Frenchie: he is an individual who explains the emotions and personal ties that occur when you go into battle, and the struggles that manifest during and proceeding the actual events. Men are seen outside playing a strange rendition of Rugby with a soccer ball. Justin: explains why he loves his automatic rifle so much and explains how your whole identity is shaped by the stories and acts that you perform here in this type of environment. Saturday: another meeting is held about the covert operation and there is detailed discussion on how they are going to capture a prisoner. The operation to get behind Serbian lines was a success; they were able to kill one of the Serbian men and take another prisoner so that they could use him for interrogation. After that they were all back at the Command Center where they were able to trade war stories of the previous hours. Kit was wounded during a subsequent operation behind enemy lines. When he recovers, he plans to join the fighting in Bosnia. Carl was released from military jail and returned to England. Dave was arrested after a German journalist was stabbed in a bar-room brawl.

Mythmaking: The Balkans
This independent report looks at how the mainstream media cover the Balkan wars. To counteract the inaccurate and simplistic reporting that pervades the mainstream television networks' programming and the print, this report attempts to explain the history of the region and the rise of nationalism that led to current wars. The program features examples of inaccurate TV reporting and stereotypical phrases (e.g. "ancient hatreds, ethnic rivalries frozen in time that threaten to ignite," "irresolvable, irreconcilable differences") that the media use to describe the perplexing events in the Balkans. The propaganda war is also discussed. Croatian policy against minorities discussed.

Participants: Laura Flanders of the Fairness and Accuracy in Reporting (spent a long time covering Northern Ireland); Marina Komarecki, U.S. correspondent, "B92" Radio, opposition radio in Belgrade; Ivo Skoric, U.S. correspondent, Arkzin, the art/newspaper for the anti-war campaign in Croatia (August 25, 1992); Bill Weinberg, journalist and member of Balkan War Resource Group; and representatives of the Center for Anti-war Action in Belgrade, Serbia and Antiwar Campaign Council from Zagreb, Croatia.

Brčko: A Postcard From Home
An investigation of ethnic cleansing incidents in Brcko, an ethnically-mixed town in northern Bosnia that fell under Serb control at the beginning of the conflict in Bosnia. Much of Brcko's non-Serbs, some 20,000, had to flee to different parts of Europe and thousands are believed to have been murdered by the Serbs. Survivors give testimonies of large-scale killings and torture that took place in a port, "Luka," police station, Hotel Posavina, Partisan Hall, and "farma." The accounts are accompanied by photographs of an act of murder and mass graves which provide evidence of the Serbian crimes. Other statements are given by Milos Vasic (journalist for Vreme magazine, Belgrade), Milorad Ekmecic (Professor of History at the University of Belgrade), Lawrence Eagleburger (former Secretary of State) accusing Vojislav Seselj of war crimes, and Vojislav Seselj (Head of the Serbian Radical Party).

Serbia: The Dream of a Greater Serbia / Serbien: Der Traum vom Grossreich
This documentary studies the rise of Serbian nationalism in the former Yugoslavia as it came to a head in early 1991, shortly before the outbreak of full-scale war. The film begins with a brief overview of the Yugoslavia, describing the historical and political background, ethnic make-up, and geography of the region. The roots of the drive for a Greater Serbia are traced back to the renowned memorandum published by the Serbian Academy of Arts and Sciences in Belgrade, outlining Serbian territorial aspirations in the case of a disintegrating Yugoslavia. The program then reflects on the effort to immortalize the historic battle of Kosovo Polje (Field of Blackbirds) in 1389 as a means to exploit ethnic conflict. Footage is then shown from a modern Serbian TV movie which depicts the Serbs fighting the Turks. The documentary then delves into the relationship between Albanians and Serbs in Kosovo, from the era of Tito's Yugoslavia up to the early 90s, describing how the ethnic make-up in Kosovo has changed through the years as Serbs emigrated to other areas in Yugoslavia and Kosovar Albanians continued to maintain the highest birthrate in Europe. Kosovo's relative autonomy under Tito is explained, showing how Serbian nationalists succeeded during the late 80s in revoking freedoms enjoyed by the Albanian majority. The documentary likens the plight of Kosovo's Albanians to black South Africans under Apartheid, detailing how Serbian politicians gained control of key positions of power in Kosovo, fortifying their actions by creating an oppressive police force dominated by Serbs. The University Clinic of Pristina is cited as another prime example of an overall nationalist pattern in which the Serbian-controlled government in Kosovo arbitrarily replaced Albanian doctors with Serbian doctors. Serbian civilians are filmed and interviewed about being supplied with weapons by Serbian authorities. The documentary shows how the school system in Kosovo became a quasi-Serbian institution, enforcing a Serbian learning plan and eliminating instruction in the Albanian language, resulting in a boycott of all public schools in Kosovo by ethnic Albanians. Footage is shown of classes being taught by Albanian teachers in private homes. The documentary then shifts its focus to Banja Luka, one of Bosnia's largest cities. Ethnic Muslims' representation in politics, education, and police in Banja Luka and Bosnia are contrasted with that of Kosovo's ethnic Albanians. The concentrations of ethnic Serbs along the former border of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, from the Krajina region to Vojvodina, are discussed as providing the pretext for an ethnic geography supportive of the territorial aspirations of a Greater Serbia. The documentary also claims that the half a million ethnic Germans that lived in Yugoslavia between the World Wars were eventually driven out by the end of World War II. It is claimed that these were some the first victims of a coming Serbian nationalism, citing numerous books from German culture that can still be found at a school in Sremski Karlovski, Vojvodina. The program then shifts its focus back to the Krajina region, showing where ethnic concentrations of Catholic Croats and Orthodox Serbs are located. The effect of World War II's Croatian Ustasa state is then explored, showing how the region's history has played into the modern conflict, especially the massacres of Serbian civilians in Glina and Jasenovac. The documentary then shifts back to modern Yugoslavia, focusing on Tito's construction of the Yugoslav state after World War II and how the economies of the different republics became specialized. The size of Serbia's economy is described as modest, stemming from problems mounting after Tito's death such as scaled-back salaries and higher unemployment. The documentary asserts that economic conditions played a major role in the outbreak of conflict, largely because Serbia would have faced certain bankruptcy without the added revenue of republics such as Croatia and Slovenia to help sustain it. Tito and his ideas of a unified, socialist Yugoslavia are discussed as a failed institution. The military is cited as being in limbo, built on the foundations of a Yugoslav state, now with an uncertain future and prone towards violent complicity in the drive for a Greater Serbia because of the overwhelming numbers of high-ranking Serbian officers. The program then returns to the Battle of Kosovo Polje, reflecting on how ethnic conflict once again threatens the region and questioning whether Croatia and Slovenia's bids for independence will become bloody conflicts by clashing with the ideals of a Greater Serbia. Interviews featured in the documentary include: Momcilo Trajkovic, Serbian Parliament Member in Kosovo; Dr. Bujar Bukoshi, Democratic League of Kosovo (LDK); Serbian Patriarch Pavle Stojcevic; Milovan Djilas, author and ex-partisan critic of the Yugoslavian state; Dr. Dejan Medakovic, Professor at the Serbian Academy of Arts and Sciences; Damjan Antic, Mayor of Dvor; Milos Micic, Serbian Orthodox Priest; Stanka Lakovit, former Partisan; and General Mate Pehjar, Military Academy of Belgrade. Other footage shown in the documentary includes: a funeral for a slain policeman in Pakrac; the Studenica and Pec Monasteries; ethnic Albanians in markets and cafes in Pristina, panoramas of Pristina; the University Clinic hospital in Pristina; ethnic Albanian schoolchildren in class; armed Serbian civilians and police units in Kosovo; city views of Banja Luka, Vojvodina, and Karlovac; destruction of civilian property and cultural heritage in the Krajina; Jasenovac; archival footage of Tito with Churchill and Kruschev; factories in Uzice, Serbia; guards at Tito's grave and state-office-turned-museum in Dedinje; and troops training at a special officers academy in Serbia.

A War Against Women / Krieg Gegen Frauen
This documentary focuses on the specific targeting of women since the outbreak of war in the former Yugoslavia in 1991. The film begins by tracing the history of rape during warfare, first citing examples from the Bible, then likening the plight of women in the Balkans to that of women in other historic wars such as WWI and WWII, including archival footage from Bangladesh, Afghanistan, Iraq, Germany, and Korea. Many testimonies are featured from women who endured rape and other maltreatment. Different members of the Bosnian community are interviewed about the effect of the war on women there, primarily Muslims. The documentation center in Zagreb is highlighted as well for its efforts to document the experience of refugees and record war crimes. Doctors are interviewed about abortion as a potential option and its effect on the women.

The Crime That Changed Serbia / Vidimo se u čitulji
Documentary film about the rise of crime in Serbia—a result of the war and dismal economic conditions. The film depicts Serbia as a frustrated nation whose youth and talent left at the outbreak of war, forcing those that remained to cope with continuing violence and staggering inflation. The result, as the film suggests, has been the rise of gangs and inter-gang violence. Unable to find suitable work, many of the remaining Serbian youth have taken to robbery, drug dealing, and various forms of smuggling. Also addressed is how this violence, which is carried out by gangs with only marginal levels of organization, has spilled over into the streets, thus affecting many innocent Serbian citizens. The film includes interviews numerous gang members, police officials, and war veterans.

The Republic of Serbian Krajina
Documentary discussing the Serbian Krajina region from the Serb perspective. It traces the history of Serb settlement in that area, as well as Serb-Croat relations throughout history. The documentary gives an extensive explanation of the WWII Nazi-backed Independent State of Croatia, and its genocide perpetrated against the Serb people. A link between the Independent State of Croatia and present day Croatia is established in this piece. Much focus is given to Ante Starčević's "Croat Statehood Program," and his theory of Serb inferiority and an ethnically clean Croatia. The documentary follows the systematic buildup of tension among the Croat and Serb people in Croatia—these tensions eventually turning into an armed conflict. There is also an extensive discussion about Serb genocide, the destruction of property, anti-Serb propaganda, the raiding of Serb towns and villages, the attempts by the Krajina Serbs to use democratic means of achieving autonomy, and the systematic expulsion of Serb people from Croatia. Sound bites of Franjo Tuđman and Stipe Mesić proclaiming Croatia's independence from Yugoslavia appear throughout the documentary. Numerous sound bites of Croatian Democratic Union members organizing and supporting the armament of Croatian people. Interview with Jovan Rasković, leader of the Serbian Democratic Party, who talks about an inability to express Serb ideas in the Croat parliament. Several Krajina Serb people talk about their family members being killed and their property destroyed. Dave, and several other foreign mercenaries serving in the Croat army, discuss the abundance of arms and the freedom to do what they want. Mijo Krajinović, a Serb man, describes the torture suffered at a Croat camp. Simo Brdar, curator of the Jasenovac camp, states that many WWII documents showing Serb genocide in Croatia have disappeared. Neven Mešanović, a Serb boy, describes losing his leg to a grenade. Other extensive footage of the following is available: corpses found in Krajina by UN soldiers, Krajina Serbs staging a referendum as well as proclaiming independence from Croatia, two Serb men showing their wounds from being beaten by Croat militia, Serb mobilization, Croat soldiers taking oath to defend Croatia, and much footage of Serb refugees leaving Croatia.

The Spin: Report about the Fall of Srebrenica
John Sweeney (The Observer) looks at the circumstances of the fall of the UN-designated safe haven of Srebrenica. Sweeney reveals how various governmental and UN officials disseminated misinformation and hid the truth about the enclave's fall. Thousands of Muslim men have gone missing after the Bosnian Serb soldiers took control of Srebrenica. Bosnian Serbs banned journalists from Srebrenica, so the UN became the only source of information. The Dutch troops destroyed their video material before they left the enclave because the video incriminated them for not helping the civilians. The British Ministry of Defense talked down the evidence of massacre, while the U.S. released their evidence too late. Interviews with journalists and UN officials featured.

The Death of Yugoslavia: Enter Nationalism [1/6]
This is the first of six separate films that combine to form a definitive history of the break up of Yugoslavia. Part one begins with the period immediately following Tito's death in 1980, focusing on the reshuffling of power and the economic problems within the Yugoslav federation at that time. Slobodan Milošević's steps to broaden power are retraced closely, specifically his historic trip to Kosovo in April 1987, which brought him the support of Serbian nationalists. The documentary shows how Milošević used the local Serbian nationalists in Kosovo as a power base, orchestrating protests throughout the Yugoslavian republics that created a wave of Serbian nationalism. The Communist Party meeting that enabled Milošević to replace Ivan Stambolić as President of Serbia in a power grab is also covered. The documentary shows how Milošević then stripped Kosovo of its autonomy, which triggered a nervous reaction in Slovenia and other republics. Slovenia's move to secede from the Yugoslav federation is highlighted, including the role played by Mladina magazine. In concluding part one, the implications of an independent Slovenia are examined, relating to the looming domino-effect of secession by individual republics within the Yugoslav federation, as Milan Kučan and his delegation are shown walking out on the Communist Party congress. The key politicians are interviewed throughout the documentary, including Slobodan Milošević, Ivan Stambolić, Milan Kučan, Borisav Jović, Petar Gračanin, Miroslav Šolević, Azem Vllasi, Mira Marković, Dušan Mitević, Dragiša Pavlović, Dušan Čkrebić, Raif Dizdarević, Momir Bulatović, JNA Admiral Branko Mamula, Franci Zavrl, Janez Janša, JNA Colonel Aleksandar Vasiljević, Vasil Tuporkovski, Ivica Račan, and Ciril Ribičič.

The Death of Yugoslavia: The Road to War [2/6]
This is the second of six separate films that combine to form a definitive history of the break up of Yugoslavia. Part two covers the period of political maneuvering following Slovenia's successful bid for independence, beginning by interviewing Head of Yugoslav Intelligence General Vasiljević about an alleged secret meeting between Croatian Defense Minister Martin Špegelj and Hungarian arms dealers. The documentary details the high tensions between Serb and Croat officials as Croatia strives for independence, featuring a play-by-play account of how Slobodan Milošević, President of Serbia, Borisav Jović, Serbian delegate to the Yugoslav State Council, and other Serbian military and government officials orchestrated a plan to prevent Croatia from seceding from the Yugoslav Federation. Vasil Tupurkovski, Macedonian delegate to the Yugoslav State Council, is interviewed extensively, describing how Milošević and Jović devised a plan to gain control over the JNA. Actual sessions of the Yugoslav State Council meetings show Council delegates splitting as a showdown between Stipe Mesić, Croatian delegate to the Yugoslav State Council, and Jović develops. As Croatia struggles to gain independence on a federal level, the Serbian minority in the Krajina region begins to revolt under the leadership of Milan Babić, Mayor of Knin, and Milan Martić, Police Chief in Knin.

Interview with Željko Ražnjatović Arkan
Arkan talks about the beginning of his engagement in the war in Croatia. Despite a lack of prior military experience, Arkan describes how he formed the Serbian Volunteer Guard, also known as the Tigers, relying on strict discipline and the help of Serbs from foreign mercenary brigades, such as the Legion of Foreigners. Arkan criticizes the Yugoslav National Army (JNA), calling its soldiers a "bunch of scum." Arkan discusses his post-war role as a parliamentary representative in Kosovo, which he refers to as Kosmet, including his motives for entering politics. Arkan stresses that serving the Serbian nation has been his driving force and emphasizes the importance of the Serbian tradition and nationhood to Serbs. He briefly describes his political campaign, securing him five seats in parliament, as well as divisions among the Serbs in Kosovo. Arkan also details his vision of the "United Serbian States," which would encompass all Serb lands and be governed by an "all-Serb assembly." Arkan further talks about his connection with the Belgrade soccer team, the Red Star, outlining his plans for future involvement in the team's affairs. He talks about the Tigers' backgrounds, their initial motivation to join him, and their post-war whereabouts. According to Arkan, men of all social backgrounds joined the Guard when a "drop of Obilić's blood boiled within them," a statement implying that modern-day Serb defenders are descendants of a Serbian hero who took the life of Sultan Murat in the battle of Kosovo polje in 1389. Arkan proudly details his business ventures which enable him to continually provide financial support to the families of the 28 fallen and over a hundred injured Tigers. Arkan also talks about his family, especially his four small children.

End of Yugoslavia [1/2]
This report gives a detailed insight into the Bosnian conflict outlining the events leading to the war and the future siege of Sarajevo. Europe's response to the conflict is also detailed, particularly in the second part of the report. The report begins by focusing on how pre-war Bosnia, and Sarajevo in particular, had symbolized the spirit of Yugoslavia, describing how Bosnian Muslims, Croat, and Serbs lived side by side. The referendum for secession held in Bosnia as Yugoslavia was disintegrating is then detailed. Right after the results went public, where Bosnian Muslims and Croats voted for independence from Yugoslavia and most of the Serbs boycotted the ballot, the report explains that armed men with masked faces set up barricades around in the predominantly Serb areas of Sarajevo. It is further explained that the pathological nationalism of their leaders radicalized Bosnian Serbs to take up the call to arms to prevent Bosnia from succeeding from Yugoslavia. The report then explains that by April 1992, Sarajevo, a former Olympic City, and the rest of Bosnia were at war. As the report points out, Bosnian Serbs enjoyed an arms superiority for several weeks through the control of the JNA, but were then forced to withdraw from all the city's barracks, leaving Sarajevo to various paramilitary groups, all with the goal to prevent Bosnian Serb domination. The report shows Bosnian Serb bunkers, stating that Bosnian Serb fighters managed to secure their positions in the hills above Sarajevo, which allowed them to have every street in full view. The Markale marketplace bombing of civilians waiting in line for bread in May of 1992 is pointed out as having shocked the world. It is still not clear who fired the mortar shell. Details are given of how Sarajevo became a dangerous place where snipers aimed at children, where funerals could not be conducted in peace, and where any venture outside could mean death. The damages that can result from being at the frontline are exemplified by what happened to Dobrinja, the Western suburb of Sarajevo, where the frontline ran right through and left its 40,000 inhabitants cut off from the world for months. Dobrinja's maternity hospital, which lay right on the frontline, is shown as having been one of the first targets of Bosnian Serb attacks. The report states that the Bosnian government made several unsuccessful attempts to break the siege so that children could be evacuated, as endless streams of casualties left many hospitals in agony. The report then goes into a discussion regarding the detention camps found in Bosnia in August of 1992, which caused pictures of the Manjača and Omarska camps to circulate around the globe. The report states that Bosnian Serbs committed most of the atrocities, but that their enemies were not blameless either. The report explains that losing their land and cities did not prevent the Bosnian Muslims from striking back with lethal force, and gives the example of an early morning attack by Bosnian Muslim forces, where 28 Bosnian Serb soldiers were brutally murdered; two of the soldiers were roasted on a spit. Appalling pictures of mass graves and starved prisoners got the world to take action, according to the report. The UN acted by setting up a war crimes tribunal along the lines of the Nuremberg trials. The report explains that in the countryside, the Bosnian Serb desire to create a ethnically-pure enclave, was expressed through ethnic cleansing where anyone of a different ethnic or religious background was stripped of life or property. As the report states, there are no exact numbers on how many people were displaced, died, or were in prison camps and survived, but there are countless villages which lay empty. According to the report, the estimated 2.5 million Bosnian refugees have created the worst refugee crisis since WWII. Germany, it is detailed, was most responsive to the crisis by taking up half a million refugees. The report ends by stating that most of Bosnia's refugees remain homeless and friendless, with their lives in ruins. Other footage included: Sarajevo being bombed at night, men sitting in a cafe, people voting at the polls, masked Bosnian Serbs behind barricades, demonstration and later shooting at Marijin dvor Square, dead JNA soldiers laying in the street, JNA trucks moving out of Sarajevo, Croat paramilitary soldiers (HOS), marketplace bombing victims, babies strapped to bus seats, bodies of two dead children, an old woman being hit at a funeral service, destroyed apartments in Dobrinja, doctors working on a wounded, graves on the roadside, destroyed maternity hospital in Dobrinja, Koševo maternity ward, wounded being brought into Koševo, tall buildings being hit, destroyed houses, funeral of the 28 Bosnian Serb soldiers, body bags, Bosnian Serb soldiers driving through the countryside, refugees fleeing, refugee camps, and refugees arriving at a German train station.

End of Yugoslavia [2/2]
The report continues by outlining Europe's direct response to the war in Bosnia. It is explained how by April of 1992, frustration with the inability to understand the conflict caused mediators, peacekeepers, aid workers, and journalists to leave Sarajevo. General helplessness of the European Community to solve the Bosnia conflict is then outlined by stating that the organization which holds itself responsible for European stability was the first to leave Bosnia, immediately followed by UN forces whose headquarters for Croatia were set up in Sarajevo. It is then explained that the Red Cross left after one of their convoys was ambushed, killing their new Sarajevo representative. The report states that more journalists and cameramen were killed or wounded in Croatia and Bosnia than in any other war. According to the report, the leaving of international monitors resulted in even worst shelling of Sarajevo, which was captured only by SKY News, and which shocked the world. The report then outlines Western efforts to find a solution for the Bosnia crisis, beginning with an act of political showmanship where French President Francois Mitterand toured the streets of Sarajevo with Bosnian President Alija Izetbegović. The report states that instead of ending the war, the world chose to send in peacekeeping troops to support the humanitarian aid effort, which the international community decided to make in Bosnia. UN soldiers were to control the Sarajevo airport, and escort the food, medicine, and clothing shipped into Sarajevo. The presence of UN soldiers is explained as not resulting in the end of the siege, but rather a blaze of publicity as politicians, such as British parliament member Douglas Heard, who flew into Sarajevo and then disappeared into armored vehicles for talks with warring leaders. According to the report, these talks went nowhere and no cease-fire was ever held. The report then details the London Conference, which was organized by Britain’s Prime Minister John Major who organized the UN and most of Europe for a two-day conference dealing with Bosnia. The only results of the conference were that one mediator, Lord Carrington, was replaced by two new ones: Cyrus Vance for the UN, and Lord David Owen for the EU. The report then gives an outline of the trouble humanitarian aid distributors have experienced in Bosnia. At the end of the summer an incident where an Italian cargo flight was shot down while leaving Sarajevo is given as example of how susceptible to attack the lightly armed UN troops are. The report explains that inside Sarajevo, people have been given aid roughly once every two weeks, even though both the queue and the bureaucratic procedures are lengthy. It is further noted that even though not enough food is given out, Sarajevo is lucky compared to other areas of Bosnia where many of the UN aid convoys were halted by Bosnian Serb who would not let the UN feed Bosnian Serb enemies. According to the report, some of the walls were created by Bosnian Serb commanders, other by widows, mothers, and sisters who’ve lost husbands, sons, and brothers. Srebrenica is given as example of being hit the hardest because it was cut off for seven months. It is explained that even after an agreement was reached with the Bosnian Serb military and political leadership, it proved worthless for three days as local Bosnian Serb commanders refused to let the trucks go through and organized another wailing barricade dressed in black. The report concludes that the insistence of Western leaders on a policy based only on talks and delivery of humanitarian aid resolved nothing, as food aid was always too little and too late, and the case fire was never adhered to. The report shows Sarajevo's firemen turn up regardless of the shelling and the snipers; but even as they overcome a fire on one side of a building, another fire starts at the other side. The report finishes by stating that the world keeps looking on as Sarajevo and its most prized treasures disappear in flames. Statements by Britain’s Prime Minister John Major, Lord David Owen, a female civilian, UN aid worker Larry Hollingworth, and UN Commander in Bosnia General Philip Morrillon. Other footage available: landscapes of Sarajevo, UN vehicles with bullet holes in their windshields, destroyed UN headquarters in Sarajevo, destroyed UN trucks, Sarajevo being bombed at dusk, UN trucks entering Sarajevo, UN soldiers unloading a cargo plane, Yugoslav President Slobodan Milošević at the London Conference, UN cargo plane landing in Sarajevo, the remains of the Italian plane that was shot down, Bosnian Serb women wailing at a gravesite, UN trucks lined up in front of Srebrenica, residents looking on as their apartment building is burning, the body of a dead child, and Bosnian TV footage of the National Library up in flames.

Nightline: Life Inside Sarajevo, Life Under Siege
In this report, the latest massacre in Sarajevo and the Croatian offensive against the Serbs in Croatia are discussed. ABC's Garrick Utley reports on the massacre near the main market in Sarajevo. The UN believes the shells came from the south of the city, where the Bosnian Serbs are positioned, but hasn’t officially confirmed that.

The funeral of the three U.S. diplomats killed in an auto accident in Bosnia is shown. BBC's Mark Urban looks into a supply route to Sarajevo via Mt. Igman, living conditions in Bosnia, and the black market of petrol in the Bosnian capital. The reporter visits the family of Almir Pašić, who explains how he collects water.

Tango of Slaves [1/2] / [1/2]
"Tango of Slaves," named after a popular tune from the Warsaw Ghetto, was produced by Ilan Ziv for his two daughters, in an effort to give them their own images of the Holocaust and their family history. Frustrated by popular Holocaust imagery, Ziv decided to take his father back to Warsaw, his former home. Tango of Slaves is the story of that return, a physical journey that became a meditative essay about history, memory, and their preservation in imagery: a meditation which has been made more pressing as the Holocaust is being inevitably transformed from a living experience into motion picture drama.

Christian Dezer explores how Radovan Karadzic handles increasing international pressure. Karadzic explains his plans for a new Sarajevo, a "Serbian Sarajevo," that would be erected in the middle of Pale. Karadzic admits he will remain involved in political affairs because of the overwhelming support of his people and political party. Karadzic deems the International War Crimes Tribunal illegal and discriminatory against the Serbs. According to Karadzic, the entire "Serb" population would react and thousands of soldiers would rise up against NATO if they were to arrest him or Mladic—a terrorist act in his estimation. Karadzic also justifies the firing of premier Kasagic.

Nightline: All That Remains
This report by Dave Marash focuses on the efforts of the Boston-based Physicians for Human Rights to excavate and investigate a mass grave found in the Serb-controlled village of Lazeta, near Srebrenica. The mass grave is a likely repository for the corpses of murdered men and boys captured by the Bosnian Serb Army after the fall of Srebrenica. Forensic Investigator Bill Haglund heads the Physicians group of international volunteers in an excavation project. Haglund describes the motivation behind his commitment to this type of work in Bosnia and elsewhere, and outlines the main goals of the Physicians' mission: to collect evidence and facilitate the prosecution of war crimes, to identify bodies, to create and preserve historical evidence and thus prevent the occurrence of similar crimes in future, and to ensure that the victims won't have died in vain. One of the survivors featured in the program, Mevludin Oric, links the Bosnian Serb Commanding General Ratko Mladic to the Srebrenica massacre. Oric claims that Mladic was seen in the Lazeta school and its gymnasium before the massacre in Lazeta. Additional statements by two forensic investigators, David Del Pino and Jose Pablo Baraybar, highlight the nature of the Physicians' work. The collected evidence is analyzed with modern technology in a laboratory set in a bombed-out clothing factory in the former frontline village of Kalesija. Morgue crew consisting of Dr. Robert Kirchner, Physicians For Human Rights International Director of Forensic Projects, his assistant Fiona Rainforth, and Mike Warren, graduate assistant at the University of Florida, highlight the details of their work in the morgue. Kirchner explains how forensic experts piece all available evidence together and draw conclusions about the likely causes of death of the people whose bodies are found in mass graves. Kirchner points out that in Lazeta, the exhumed evidence indicated that the victims were systematically exterminated. Pressured by the need of victims' families and relatives, the investigators expanded the scope of their mission hoping to facilitate the identification of the remains. The details of this effort presented through interviews with Laurie Vollen of the Physicians for Human Rights, Munira Hadzic, organizer of protest demonstrations of Srebrenica women and director of programs for refugee women (one such project, the weaving project, is featured on the tape), and Suada Omerovic, a Bosnian Muslim who lost her family in Srebrenica. Footage included: Zoran Petrovic-Pirocanac's footage taken after the fall of Srebrenica, Ratko Mladic in the Srebrenica or Zepa area greeting Bosnian Serb soldiers, forensic investigators in the field trying to uncover the mass grave in Lazeta, John Shattuck in a press conference during his visit to Srebrenica and the neighboring areas, forensic investigators' computer database that contains the findings and information concerning the victims, women of Srebrenica holding a placard that reads "Where are our sons, fathers, and brothers?," Srebrenica women weaving, Srebrenica women refugees with small children, forensic experts working on special machines such as the fluoroscope.

This documentary depicts Dusko Tadic's hometown of Kozarac, using home videos that show the level of ethnic harmony which existed before the war. Interviewed are Tadic's former Bosnian Muslim friend, and Bosnian Muslims in pre-war Kozarac. Hamdija Demrovic, Omarska camp snds who paint the picture of the interconnectedness of Bosnian Serbs andurvivor, explains that the Bosnian Muslims in Kozarac did not expect to be killed by their Bosnian Serb neighbors. He also compares Omarska camp to Auschwitz. Eden Kararic, Omarska camp survivor, explains the difficulty to understand the ethnic hatred that ensued the war.

Impact: Report About Arkan
This short documentary focuses on Zeljko Raznjatovic, otherwise known as "Arkan," and his Serbian paramilitary group, the Serbian Volunteer Guard, also referred to as "the Tigers." Arkan's life is chronicled, showing a criminal record that began during his youth and spans his entire career. The report details how he was hired at a young age by the Yugoslav Interior Ministry's State Intelligence after being arrested repeatedly. The many crimes Arkan committed in Western European countries while working as an intelligence officer and hitman are recounted, explaining why he is wanted by Interpol for crimes throughout the continent, even mentioning an escape from prison. Arkan's transition to paramilitary commander is also covered, focusing on the formation of his Serbian Volunteer Guard. Training footage of the Tigers is combined with photographs of murdered, unarmed civilians in the Bosnian town of Bijeljina. The relationship of support between Arkan and Slobodan Milosevic's central Belgrade government is also discussed, focusing in particular on the role the Tigers played during the initial outbreaks of the wars in Croatia and Bosnia. The uneasy relationship between Arkan's special forces and Serbian Yugoslav Army (YA) generals is also highlighted. Atrocities committed by Arkan's Tigers are cited, including civilian witness testimony. Witness testimonies from Bijeljina are used to contrast the new image Arkan has pursued through a current seat in Parliament and as public hero. Richard Holbrooke, U.S. Peace Envoy to the Balkans; Cherif Bassiouni, UN Commission of Experts; Milos Vasic, Belgrade Journalist; and others comment on Arkan's impunity. The program concludes by posing the question of why Arkan has yet to be indicted by the UN War Crimes Tribunal in the Hague.

Program about Bosnian war criminals living in Gemany as refugees, alongside other Bosnians whom they victimized during the Bosnian conflict. The program also focuses on how justice can be achieved and implemented through the International War Crimes Tribunal in the Hague, the first such court since the end of WWII.

The Army, a Power Factor / Machtfaktor Armee
This broadcast gives a detailed analysis of the JNA, its history, weaponry, and the role it played in the break-up of the former Yugoslavia. Most of the report's images come from archival military and documentary films featuring JNA weaponry and arms factories, mixed in with more recent combat footage from Croatia and Slovenia. The report begins by stating that despite the JNA having always been the pride and joy of Yugoslavia's multi-ethnic federation, it turned on it's own people when Yugoslavia began to break up. As HTV footage of destruction in Croatia and Slovenia shows, the predominantly-Serbian generals are described as having their own agenda, irrespective of what Stipe Mesic, rotating chair of the Yugoslav Federal Council, or any other politicians had to say. The report's narrator then poses questions regarding the intentions of the JNA and its agenda while showing archival footage of JNA weaponry and modern footage of tanks driving through civilian areas. The report states that some 100,000 people are employed by Yugoslavia's defense industry, concentrated in Serbia. Tito is said to have asserted his role in the non-aligned bloc by selling his state's weapons to other member nations in the third world. The report states that the terrain of Croatia and Slovenia is ideal for the 700 JNA tanks stationed there (of an overall 2,200). The reports continues describing the JNA arsenal while showing archival footage cataloging the many types of JNA weapons. Footage of damaged houses and other civilian destruction caused by JNA artillery divisions in Petrinje, Croatia is shown. The report states that the JNA maintained an overall 60 multiple rocket launchers at that time. The JNA's larger missile arsenals are detailed as well, including the R 60, described as having a target range of 60 to 70 kilometers, and the R 300, shown mounted on military trucks with launching devices and described as an improved version of the Soviet SCUD missile. The report then shows archival clips of a promotional film from the JNA's Air Force while detailing the different jets such as the Yugoslavian-made Galeb and Eagle, and the Russian-made MIG 21. The report states that the JNA maintains approximately 150 MIGs, yet only half are ready for combat, and even fewer of that total could be manned because of the Slovenian and Croatian officers that deserted in opposition to bombing their own people. Some 150 to 200 armed helicopters are also shown and described as ready for placement by the JNA, but pilots for these aircraft are in dwindling numbers as well. The bombs and rockets of the aircrafts are featured, combined with scenes of destruction showing the aftermath of attacks using such weapons. Russian Defense Minister Yasov's relationship with Serbian JNA generals Kadijevic and Adzic is then focused on, showing how Russia supplied military support for Serbia's aggression. The report shows the link between the military and nationalist ideologues in the former Yugoslavia, briefly mentioning the renowned memorandum from the Serbian Academy of Arts and Sciences. Territorial ambitions of a "Greater Serbia" are outlined amid footage of Vojislav Seselj and Slobodan Milosevic speaking at nationalist rallies. The report states that the reorganization of the JNA in 1985 shifted further authority to Belgrade, allowing for greater complicity with the agenda of a "Greater Serbia" by making light to middle-weight weaponry readily available to Serbian civilians and bands of Cetniks in border regions, including footage of specific types of arms and Cetnik paraphernalia. The effect of the JNA's reduction in overall numbers from 1.1 million down to 230,000 is also analyzed, mainly due to the loss of its multiethnic reserves. This, according to the report, fits perfectly within the goals of a "Greater Serbia" because it creates an ethnically-pure Serbian army out of the JNA, with poorly-paid reservists available for placement to key areas such as Sandzak, Vojvodina, and Kosovo, often against the wishes of their own wives. Many non-Serbian soldiers are said to have deserted. The report states that due to losses in Slovenia, a new plan was developed under the title " BDM 2." The plan called for rolling over Croatia and recapturing Slovenia. A plan, consequently, that was never carried out due to only 2 tank brigades remaining in Slovenia at the time of the broadcast, and, according to military experts, a general lack of tactical positioning and absence of the "Partisan Brigades" and other special forces. The report cites the JNA as always having been a symbol of pride for the Partisans' defeat of the Third Reich, but that the Croatian National Guard has come to better represent the needs of its own people. Footage from the short film "Brothers in Arms" is featured, showing scenes of the Croatian National Guard in combat. The short film was shot by Gordan Lederer, a journalist who was killed by a JNA tank on the front. The report states that the Croatian National Guard has combined with police units from the Croatian Interior Ministry, building makeshift armored personnel carriers to raise moral, but remains out-financed, outgunned, and outmanned by JNA forces. Estimates on the total number in the Croatian National Guard are unavailable because of the rapid enlistment at the time of the broadcast. Most are only armed with Kalashnikovs, some only with World War I-era Carbines.

- (1) BBC (in English W/SCB subtitles, beginning cut off): Allan Little reports from Bihac on an unidentified 16-year-old girl who was raped repeatedly by Serbian irregular forces and became pregnant as a consequence. Although her story is not corroborated by other testimonies, it is supported by her internal and other injuries. She lives in Zagreb and will not be allowed to have an abortion because the Croatian law prohibits it.
- (2) TVBiH (in SCB): This report includes a brief interview with a 12-year-old girl from Foca who was raped repeatedly by Bosnian Serb soldiers. She mentions that she was in Kalinovik and that she was jailed; two or three soldiers would usually come to take her out of jail and rape her. She also mentions that a soldier tried to protect her. If it weren't for the war, she would now attend sixth grade in elementary school.
- (3) TVBiH (in FRENCH W/SCB VO & English subtitles): Originally produced by a French network TV5, this report features an interview with Slobodan Panic, a Serb soldier and former detention camp guard who admitted to raping five women. Panic explains how his commanders forced him to commit the rapes.

- (5) TVBiH (in SCB): Arijana Saracevic interviews several rape victims, an unidentified Bosnian Muslim woman and three teenage girls who were all held together at a camp in Rogatica. The first woman describes in detail the torture, rape, and severe beatings which she and other women endured at the hands of the Bosnian Serb soldiers; according to her, women between the ages of 14 and 45 were raped and beaten. She knew each one of the perpetrators. One of the teenage girls explains how hard it was to face the fact that her former friends and neighbors were now their assailants.
- (5) TVBiH (in German W/SCB subtitles): Originally produced by ORF2, this report features a testimony by the Bosnian Serb soldier Borislav Herak, who admitted that Bosnian Serb commanders turned the Vogosca motel complex "Sonja" into a bordello.

- (8) TVBiH: A longer program entitled "The Story of Rape" features a Bosnian TV reporter Haris Kulenovic interviewing an anonymous woman who was raped by the Bosnian Serb soldiers. According to Kulenovic, 30,000 women were raped during the Bosnian war. The woman and her three children lived near the airport in the suburbs of Sarajevo, from where they were taken to the nearby Kula prison in June (1992 ?). Their house was destroyed in a shell explosion. The woman describes how she was captured, how she and her daughter were raped, and how they eventually escaped from the prison. She explains that soldiers who imprisoned her were all former neighbors, and that even some of the Muslim neighbors also participated in rounding up the women. She describes the living conditions in the prison, and mentions a man named Trapara who raped and beat her. Women were called out by name, then taken to rooms where numbers of soldiers, who were often drunk, would beat, torture, and rape them. The woman explains how she and her eldest daughter deal with their experiences. She believes that the victims of rape have to talk about their experiences because that is the only way the three ethnic groups can live together again. (segment ends at 00:25:36)
- (9) HTV (SCB W/German VO & SCB subtitles; poor quality). Originally produced by a German TV station, the report contains an interview with Asja Kesma, a 22-year-old Visegrad native raped by the Bosnian Serb soldiers. She alleges that seventeen men raped her, four to five each night. During the last evening of her detention, she was raped by twelve men.

She says that she was afraid to tell her brothers that she was pregnant, and that she does not care what happens to the child. Portions of a Borislav Herak confession are intertwined with her story. Herak, a Bosnian Serb soldier who admitted to raping and killing Muslim women and other civilians, reveals that his commander Boro ordered him and his fellow soldiers to rape the Muslim women detained in the "Sonja" restaurant.

The following reports produced by various international media were all broadcast on HRT as a part of the "Slikom Na Sliku" program. October 10, 1995: The announcer cites a statement made by Bosnian President Alija Izetbegovic, where he asked Serbia and Croatia for an official declaration stating they do not have territorial aspirations in Bosnia and that they will not stir up separatist and nationalist intentions. The reports reflects speculation that Sarajevo might begin asking for uncomfortable demands which could cause negative reactions in the U.S. and among Bosnian Croats. SKY News (English W/SCB subtitles): Robin Marriage reports on the normalization of life in Sarajevo, where water and public transportation are available throughout the city. According to UN sources, Bosnian Serb forces are on the attack against the Bosnian Army around Sanski Most. U.S. negotiators are cited as stating that despite the fighting, peace negotiations set for October 31, 1995 in Dayton, OH will proceed as scheduled. There is also a brief mention that UN Commander General Rupert Smith is returning to head British troops in Northern Ireland. Smith will be replaced by General Michael Jackson. Footage available: U.S. Assistant Secretary of State Richard Holbrooke in a meeting with Bosnian President Alija Izetbegovic, heavy artillery being fired, and soldiers shooting at sunset. HRT (?) (English W/SCB subtitles): This report was originally done by CNN. According to the report, 6,000 Bosnian Muslim refugees have arrived in the Bosnian government-held area of Zenica. The Bosnian army offensive (in Western Bosnia) caused the expulsion of Bosnian Serbs who are now headed towards Banja Luka; in return, the Bosnian Serb army in the Banja Luka area has been expelling Bosnian Muslims and Croats. UN sources state that 10,000 Bosnian Muslims have been ejected by the Bosnian Serb army, and at least 5,000 men were forced to stay behind. Statements are made by David Robinson of the International Rescue Committee, and Merima, who was forced to leave her mother, husband, and children behind in Banja Luka. The report cites statements made by an unidentified woman, who states that she was raped by three Bosnian Serb soldiers; a woman whose husband was taken away; and Hussein, an elderly man.

Orter explains that Abdic's headquarters were at a castle in Velika Kladusa and that many of the men who fought in Abdic's army are still armed. As a result, Croatia has been threatening de-militarization and deportation. The Bosnian government is now asking Croatia to extradite Abdic so he can be tried for alleged war crimes. A statement made by a Bosnian army soldier from the 5th Corps is cited. Footage of street life in Velika Kladusa is available. The Hague War Crimes Tribunal has officially begun an investigation into the disappearance of 3,000 civilians in the Bosnian Serb-held area of Srebrenica. Photographs taken by U.S. intelligence have become part of the evidence in the investigation.

The second story is a of bride whose groom was shot just before the wedding. The footage is of the family's grim reality of having to turn a wedding into a funeral. Most of the footage was shot with a home camera by Milan Trivic, a journalist.

Trial Story: The Bosnia War Crimes Trial
Court TV reporter Terry Moran focuses on the Hague Tribunal and the importance of prosecuting war criminals from the Bosnian war. A brief history of the conflict is given by explaining that ethnic hatreds were subdued under communism, but then revived by ultra-nationalists in the late 1980's. According to the report, the war ended up costing 250,000 people their lives, and forced two million people to become refugees. The report explains that the Bosnian war coined the phrase "ethnic cleansing," which is most closely associated with the Bosnian Serb campaign in Northern Bosnia. It further states that in 1993, after war crimes investigators returned from Bosnia with knowledge of nearly 400 camps (operated by all three factions) and with five volumes of alleged crimes, the UN set up the first War Crimes Tribunal – nearly fifty years after the Nuremberg Trials. The report explains that even though Dusko Tadic is the first war criminal to be tried in the Hague, the prosecution of the two leading Bosnian Serb men, Radovan Karadzic and Ratko Mladic, both charged with genocide, will be crucial to the healing process in Bosnia. Tadic's biographical background is highlighted, explaining that before the war he was a cafe owner who welcomed Bosnian Muslim guests. As stated by the prosecution, it is then explained that in late May of 1992, Tadic helped in the rounding up of Bosnian Muslims living in Kozarac when Bosnian Serbs took over. The report gives a chronology of how Kozarac was taken over by the Bosnian Serb army. Hanna Greva, a Norwegian war crimes investigator, is shown stating that 43,000 Bosnian Muslims and 3,000 Bosnian Croats were killed or forced to flee the Omarska area. Her statement is further detailed by saying that Bosnian Serbs launched an open anti-Bosnian Muslim/Croat propaganda campaign. Greva explains that the campaign was launched in such a way as to evoke past fears of concentration camps, such as Jasenovac, where half a million or more Serbs were slaughtered. Following Greva's testimony is a detailed analysis of the camp survivors' statements which have linked Tadic to the Omarska camp and the crimes that followed; 75 witnesses have placed Tadic at the scene of the crimes and a dozen of them testified to being tortured by him personally. Statements are given by the following victims: Mevludin Semenovic, Omarska survivor; Azra Blagovic, Bosnian Muslim doctor in Trnopolje; Nasija Klipic, resident of Kozarac; Nihad Seferovic, former friend of Tadic; Sanko Karabasic, who saw his son being taken away by Tadic; Edin Merkal, Omarska survivor tortured by Tadic; Emir Begamovic, Omarska survivor tortured by Tadic; Mehmed Alic, survived WWII camps, Tadic took his son in away Omarska; Husein Hodzic, Omarska survivor; Halid Mujkanovic, Omarska survivor; and anonymous witnesses "H" and "L." The report then shows Tadic's testimony and the cross examination. Following Tadic's testimony and cross examination, the report explains the issues the prosecution will have to deal with which are to prove that persecution is a crime against humanity and that the Bosnian war was an international conflict. The report then shows the judges giving their verdict and conclusion. Tadic was found guilty of ethnic cleansing, and of persecuting non-Serbs: which includes beatings, torture, and killings, including the killings of two Bosnian Muslims in Kozarac. However, Tadic was found not guilty for the death of nine prisoners, including the death of a prisoner who was sexually mutilated in Omarska, and the death of his friend Emir Karabasic, the report states. Finally, the report analyzes the issues surrounding the appeal, the level of fairness of the trial, and the need to establish a permanent war crimes tribunal. Statements are made by an unidentified refugee woman, three unidentified Omarska camp survivors, Nuremberg Trial Prosecutor Robert Jackson, IWCT Prosecutor Grant Niemann, Tadic's defense lawyer Michail Wladimiroff; Omarska survivors Dragan Lukic, Isak Gari, and Sujejman Tijic (sp); news reporter Edward Vulliamy, ICWT Prosecutor Alan Tieger, ICWT Prosecutor Brenda Hollis, Tadic’s Defense Attorney Steve Kay, ICWT Judge Gabrielle Mac Donald, Tadic's wife Mira Tadic, Tadic's co-workers Miroslav Brdar and Zeljko Maric, an unidentified expert (?), media expert Thomas Dikeman (sp), IWCT Investigator Robert Reed, Tadic's former sister-in-law Sofija Tadic, and IWCT Chief Prosecutor Louise Arbour.

Various News Reports [17/42]
This tape contains reports by various news organizations. The majority of the reports have extremely bad audio quality. SKY News: This ABC "Nightline" program was aired on January 26, 1996. Dave Marash explores mass graves found in the areas of Vozuca, Liubija, and Brcko, and the impact that these have had on the local and international community. Marash points to the village of Cerna as an example of ethnic cleansing where the houses were left almost untouched, but whose population has been driven away or killed. Four graves were unearthed near Cerna, in the area of Vozuca. As pathologist Dr. Izet Hodzic points out, thirteen cadavers were found and seven other individuals are still missing. One of the local grave diggers, Sahbaz Abdamovic explains that half of the bodies were burned beyond recognition. The bodies were found on property belonging to Safet Grzalic who explains that out of the 5,000 people who lived in the Vozuca valley before the war, only 200 or 300 are left. The next grave Marash focuses on lies in the Ljubija mine pits, where thousands of bodies are suspected to have been buried. This grave, Marash states, is believed to have been tied to the Keraterm temporary concentration camp. The report contains excerpts from interviews by "Nightline" in November of 1992 with three unidentified, and one anonymous, Keraterm camp survivors. One of the unidentified survivors states that 122 men were killed in one single night. Near the town of Brcko another mass grave was found. Marash interviews Roy Gutman, a "Newsday" reporter, who explains that around 3,000 Bosnian Muslim men were killed in a row of warehouses at the port of the river Sava. These warehouses served as a concentration camp. Gutman further notes that corpses taken to a local cattle feeding company were either ground up or burned. Marash finally focuses on the mass graves found near Srebrenica. He interviews U.S. Assistant Secretary of State for Human Rights John Shattuck on the scene of where around 2,000 Bosnian Muslim men were killed after the Bosnian Serb takeover of Srebrenica. Marash finally gives a brief examination of NATO's response to the finding of mass graves throughout Bosnia. Statements are made by Allied Rapid Reaction Force Corps General Sir Michael Walker, Commander UK IFOR Brigade Brigadier Richard Dannatt, IFOR Spokesman Colonel Robert Gaylord, and Tribunal Prosecutor Justice Richard Goldstone. Other footage available: Bosnian Serb soldiers rolling into Srebrenica, Zoran Pertovic-Pirocanac footage taken after the fall of Srebrenica, UN Dutch headquarters in Potocari, destroyed houses and villages, TVBiH footage-General Leighton Smith appealing to NATO troops to help war crimes investigators and men digging up a mass grave, and SRT footage of Admiral Smith appealing to NATO troops for help in the investigations. In the second part of the program, Forrest Sawyer interviews War Crimes Tribunal Prosecutor Justice Richard Goldstone. Goldstone discusses the following issues: NATO's role in the investigations, the differences in mission of NATO and the Tribunal, the 56 indictments issued for alleged war criminals, and the accusations made against Serbian President Slobodan Milosevic. SKY News: Christopher Terry reports on a meeting between all Serbian leaders in the hopes of exchanging war criminals in return for the lifting of sanctions against Serbia. Red Cross records show that only 300 of the 900 POW's were released following the signing of the Dayton peace agreement. According to the report, the Bosnian government holds over 300 POW's, the Bosnian Serbs hold 180, and the Bosnian Croats hold 177. The report also touches upon the issue of war crimes by pointing out that many are believed to have been massacred after the fall of Srebrenica, and that many more thousand are buried in the Ljubija mine near Prijedor. The report also cites a statement made by Bosnian Serb leader Radovan Karadzic, saying that war criminals should not be extradited to the Hague, but tried in the Bosnian Serb Republic. A statement is made by Bosnian Foreign Minister Muhamed Sacirbey. Footage included: Karadzic greeting several men at a Christmas pork roasting in Belgrade, POW's lined up for release, and Bosnian Serb General Ratko Mladic greeting Karadzic in Pale. The report is followed by a phone interview of Jaksa Skekic who reports from Belgrade. He addresses the following issues: the meeting between Milosevic, Karadzic, and Mladic in Belgrade; mass graves; and the expected cooperation of the Serbian leaders with the International War Crimes Tribunal investigations. HRT: A very brief report showing Mr. Vladimir Soljic, Minister of Defense of HR Herceg-Bosna gives a statement regarding the recognition of the Croatian Defense Council fighters. HRT: This piece, originally produced by BBC World, contains an interview with U.S. Human Rights Envoy John Shattuck.

HRT: This broadcast, originally produced by BBC World, is an interview conducted with Zoran Pajic, Professor of International Law at London University's Kings College, who discusses the following issues surrounding the War Crimes Tribunal: disagreements regarding war crimes, the role of IFOR forces in guarding mass grave sites, and the establishment of legitimacy of the Tribunal. BBC World: This broadcast analyzes the post-war situation in Mostar, which is divided into Eastern Mostar, populated by Bosnian Muslims, and West Mostar, populated by Bosnian Croats. The report gives a brief history of the animosities which existed between the two fractions and the later alliance against the Bosnian Serbs. Even though the population is working on rebuilding the city, deep animosities remain prevalent as each ethnic group works on rebuilding only their parts of town, and the population generally does not show a desire to unite Mostar again. Statement are made by Bosnian Croat Mayor Mjio Brajovic and Mufti of Mostar Hadzismail Smajkic. Footage included: the destruction of Mostar's "Stari Most" bridge by Bosnian Croat forces, Bosnian Muslim men going into a Mostar mosque, an outdoor market in Mostar, and TV MOSTAR footage of a Bosnian Croat parade on the Mostar stadium, including a Bosnian commander calling out to his "Ustasha" brothers. EURONews: This broadcast begins by stating that more evidence has been found to explain the disappearance of 8,000 Bosnian Muslim men after the fall of Srebrenica. The report gives a very brief history of the Tribunal, and then explains that of the 52 indicted men only a few are in the Tribunal's custody as NATO forces refuse to hunt down the accused war criminals. Footage included: Dusko Tadic entering the Hague courtroom, Manjaca camp, and Radovan Karadzic getting into a car in the States. EURONews: This short broadcast was originally produced by TVE (Spanish TV Channel). All the report states is that 30 mass graves were found around Bosnia and that investigators are given physical protection by the NATO peacekeepers. Footage included: one of the warehouses where the Srebrenica victims were killed, snow-covered fields where bodies are suspected to be laying, and investigators collecting and sorting through remains of victims. EURONews: This broadcast was originally produced by FRANCE2. This report is in reference to mass graves found around Srebrenica, but large parts of the report are inaudible. John Shattuck is shown giving a statement regarding what is suspected to have happened to the Bosnian Serb men of Srebrenica. According to the report, the men who are suspected of having committed the killings belong to the Drina Corps unit of the Bosnian Serb Army. An unidentified survivor of Srebrenica gives an inaudible statement. The report shows statements made by IFOR Lieutenant Colonel Raymer, and Sarajevo Envoy Laurent Boussie. Footage includes a destroyed building in Srebrenica, snow-covered fields where bodies are suspected to be laying, and war crimes investigators looking at the snow-covered site. EURONews: This broadcast was produced by Portugal's RTP. The audio is very bad on this report. The report is in relation to a suspected mass grave in Liubija and the War Crimes Tribunal. It is stated that Karadzic and Mladic are the only known names of the 52 indicted war criminals. Footage includes Ratko Mladic walking up the stairs, a former mine pit near Ljubija where a mass grave is suspected, Mladic greeting Karadzic in Pale, and U.S. Admiral Leighton Smith appearing on Bosnian Serb TV. EURONews: Originally produced by Finnish YLE, this broadcast interviews War Crimes Investigator Elizabeth Grant. Grant discusses her upcoming trip to Bosnia where she is to gather evidence of mass executions. The report also gives an outline of the places she will investigate and what evidence other investigators have found of mass graves throughout Bosnia. Footage included: Grant meeting with Croatian President Franjo Tudjman, aerial photos of suspected mass graves near Srebrenica, Zoran Petrovic-Pirocanac footage taken after the fall of Srebrenica, John Shattuck visiting a snow-covered suspected mass grave near Srebrenica, a suspected mass grave near Brcko, and a NATO soldier digging through earth. EURONews: This broadcast was originally produced by the Swiss SSR. The report discusses the issues regarding NATO's request for Switzerland to send troops to help out in Bosnia. Footage included: a UN soldier unloading a box from a truck, IFOR tanks rolling into a town, the document where the request was made, an unidentified Swiss official, and Swiss UN Blue Berets in Bosnia. EURONews: Originally produced by FRANCE3, this broadcast interviews Sadika Hajruli whose husband and daughter disappeared after they were captured by Bosnian Serb soldiers. She tells her story of how she was held prisoner in the basement of an old Serbian woman's house. Footage available: a picture of the house where Sadika was held, and family photos. HRT: This broadcast is a CNN interview with Justice Richard Goldstone; he discusses the following issues: where some of the known war criminals are hiding, ways in which the Tribunal plans to bring these people to trial, the cooperation of Slobodan Milosevic in extraditing war criminals, and IFOR's role in aiding the arresting of indicted war criminals. RTS: This broadcast focuses on the Bosnian government soldiers who escaped to Yugoslavia. The report states that until international refugee organizations arrived, the deserters were taken care of by the Yugoslav government. Statements are made by the following Bosnian government soldiers: Mevludin ?esko, a medial technician; Mustafa ?etic, a teacher; and Andrija Kurtic. HRT: Broadcast contains an interview conducted with Berislav Pusic, Director of Croatia's Office for the Exchange of Prisoners. The interview is a response to a report aired on Serbian television and one aired by CNN. The RTS (Belgrade television) report stated that Bosnian Serbs have released all of their POW's, but that 200 Bosnian Serb POW's are held in Tuzla. The second report concluded in the broadcast is one produced by CNN. Jackie Shymanski reports on the exchange of POW's between the three Bosnian fractions. The report shows the release of 200 Bosnian Serb POW's by the Bosnian government and Bosnian Croat forces. Bosnian Serbs were not able to release Bosnian Croat and Bosnian government forces right away due to logistical problems. The report also shows an incident where a Bosnian Croat soldier was caught with a weapon prohibited by the Geneva Convention. Statements are made by an unidentified Bosnian Serb representative, and IFOR Spokesman Pierre Gauthier. The interview is cut off.

Reporter Godel Rosenberg interviews Hanz Koschnick, who serves as the EU Administrator in Mostar. Koschnick gives his insight into the following issues: the extent to which both the Bosnian Croats and Bosnian Muslims in Mostar have broken the Peace Accord through various shooting incidents; the fact that EU and American politicians need to be aware that the Islamic world is watching how Europe is handling Bosnian Muslims; the difficulty of trying to open a dialogue between two fractions that have deep resentment for one other; his plans for dividing Mostar into six municipalities; the issue of war crimes; the need for NATO forces to aid the Tribunal; the reasons behind the EU’s inability to solve the Bosnia conflict early on; demilitarization in Bosnia; and the need to use Mostar as a learning example. In the middle of the interview, a 3R report regarding Koschnick’s meeting with EU Foreign Ministers in Brussels is shown.

Nightline: The Echoes of Ethnic Cleansing and the New Challenge for the United States
Dave Marash reports from Kosovo on renewed fighting between ethnic Serbs and Albanians, which has the potential to spill over to Bosnia, Macedonia, Greece, Albania, and Turkey. Part 1: Marash briefly reviews the history of the conflict and social division of Kosovo (8% of Serbs dominate the government, whereas the Albanians organize shadow schools, hospitals, and even the government through non-violent resistance). Marash also analyzes American diplomatic efforts in regard to Kosovo. The Serbs are now faced with a deadline imposed by the U.S. and its western allies: unless they work towards peace, they'll be punished. Statement by Madeleine Albright featured. Recent crimes are traced: the murder of seven Serb policemen; the murder of 80 Albanian civilians by the Serb police and paramilitaries in Drenica; and murders in Western Kosovo's village of Glodjan. Interviews: an Albanian woman, a young Albanian girl, a 70-year-old man who was beaten and his house trashed, and a local counsel on human rights and freedom. Part 2: Marash analyzes the roots of Serbian intransigence and nationalism, and the significance of Kosovo to ethnic Serbs. Interviews: Father Sava (who refers to Kosovo as Serbian Jerusalem) of the Visoki Decani Monastery, built in the14th century; a Kosovar Serb, whose family has lived in Kosovo for 1,200 years but who now plans to flee Kosovo; and several Kosovar Albanians who use satellite TV to get informed on events in Kosovo.

Martin Bell Report from the Frontlines above Sarajevo
Martin Bell reports from the frontlines above Sarajevo on the morning of the Orthodox Easter celebration. Three weeks into the bloodshed of civil war, it is evident that all the communities near Sarajevo have suffered, the Muslims perhaps most of all. The Bosnian Serbs and the Federal army attacked a village near the airport, hitting a mosque and killing eight of its residents. The leader of the Bosnian Serbs, Radovan Karadzic, embarked on a peace offensive before leaving for a peace conference in Lisbon. Karadzic states that Bosnian Serbs would have taken Sarajevo if they did not believe in a diplomatic solution. To make his point, Radovan Karadzic took the BBC crew on a tour of the Serbs' frontline positions overlooking Sarajevo. The purpose of this visibility exercise was to show that the Serbs were observing the cease fire in the region and that they intend to go on doing so. "We don't shoot. We try just to keep peace and not to control the surrounding of Sarajevo," said Karadzic, while paying a visit to the Bosnian Serb military position overlooking Sarajevo. Asked by a reporter if the Bosnian Serbs could take the city the next day, he replied: "Any time." The Serbs say they are willing to negotiate about anything, but if the Muslims want war, they can have the war, and the city is indefensible. Other footage includes an Easter morning liturgy in an Orthodox Christian church near Sarajevo, a grave site adjacent to a mosque in a village near the airport in Sarajevo, and a panorama of the city of Sarajevo as seen from the Bosnian Serb military position on hills above the city.

Ron Allen reports on the arrival of the UN Rapid Reaction Force on Mount Igman overlooking Sarajevo, with a mission to protect the UNPROFOR trying to deliver humanitarian aid. Despite the incessant Serb shelling of Sarajevo—more than a 100 people were killed and 700 injured in the past three weeks—the UN Rapid Reaction Force will not retaliate against the Serbs for attacks against civilians. Colonel Dick Applegate, UN British forces, and Lt. Col. Chris Vernon, UN Spokesman, explain the Reaction Force mission and its limitations. Haris Silajdzic, the Bosnian Prime Minister, states that the Serbs will continue killing because the West allows them to do so. Footage of UN Reaction Forces, rubble remains of a house, infrared images of Sarajevo being shelled at night, dead civilians, a Sarajevo family mourning over the loss of a three-month old baby and other relatives, and UN soldiers patrolling Sarajevo, is included.

David Ensor reports on the likelihood of the allied intervention to curb the Serb aggression in the so-called safe haven. The Western allies issued an ultimatum to Ratko Mladic, threatening to bomb his forces if they attack Gorazde, one of the safe haven areas. The fate of the remaining five of the so-called safe havens was not discussed despite the increased combat activity there: Bihac is under heavy attack by both Serb and Muslim forces, the shelling of Sarajevo has increased, and the Serbs burned two Muslim villages in Zepa. Comments by Bob Dole, Senate Majority Leader; Mike McCurry, White House Spokesman; and William Perry, U.S. Secretary of Defense, are included. Perry indicated that the existing UN and NATO resolution gives NATO the authority to attack Serb heavy weapons in safe haven zones. Footage included: Serb General Ratko Mladic surrounded by UN soldiers and refugee women, men, and children (Serbian TV footage taken shortly after the fall of Srebrenica); and NATO bombers, UNHCR truck and refugees in Zepa. Tadeusz Mazowiecky, the former Prime Minister of Poland and UN's Envoy for Human Rights, conducted an investigation into how the Bosnian Serb forces treated the people of Srebrenica after they conquered the town. Mazowiecky declared that there had been extremely serious violations of human rights on an enormous scale.

7/25/95:
Ron Allen reports on the aftermath of the fall of Zepa, one of the UN-declared safe havens, to Bosnian Serb forces. The Serbs allowed the first refugees to leave from Zepa on a bus convoy. Even though the Bosnian Serb General Mladic has been boasting for more than a week that the Bosnian government forces have retreated, the UN first announced today that Zepa fell under Serb control. The Bosnian Serbs have said that women and children can go free, but men of fighting age must be interrogated about war crimes. Bosnian Prime Minister Haris Silajdzic states that any evacuation of refugees done without the presence of UNPROFOR means certain death for the refugees. Aid workers are shown getting ready for the arrival of Zepa refugees. A doctor in Sarajevo, Bacir Helic, anxiously awaits buses from Zepa, expecting his mother and other relatives to arrive with the refugees. Statements by Lt. Col. Chris Vernon, UN Spokesman, and Tamsin Leakey, member of the Overseas Development Fund, are included. Footage included: buses packed with refugees leaving Zepa, the following is from the Bosnian Serb TV: Mladic toasting in Zepa, Bosnian Serb forces overseeing the shelling of Zepa; a UN tank driving through Sarajevo, Zoran Petrovic-Pirocanac footage taken after the fall of Srebrenica, aid workers packing bags of food.

John Cochran reports on the U.S. Senate debate to lift the arms embargo against the Bosnian government. Provisions for lifting the embargo are outlined by its supporters. Europeans allies say that if the embargo is lifted, then they will withdraw their troops from Bosnia. Statements by Bob Dole, the Senate Majority Leader; Warren Christopher, Secretary of State; Newt Gingrich, House Speaker; and Herve de Charrette, the French Foreign Affairs Minister, are included. Footage of UN soldiers in Bosnia is included.

Peter Jennings reports on the indictment of the Bosnian Serb leader Radovan Karadzic and General Ratko Mladic by the International War Crimes Tribunal in The Hague. Christian Chartier, War Crimes Tribunal Spokesman, highlights the charges against the two leaders: genocide, crimes against humanity, war crimes, and violations of Geneva Conventions. Footage includes images of Radovan Karadzic and Ratko Mladic together, a sniper shooting from within an apartment in Sarajevo, Mladic, and Milan Gvero playing chess. SAP footage of a group of civilians under sniper fire in Sarajevo; a woman crying in a hospital; Karadzic, Mladic, and Yasushi Akashitogether; Omarska Camp prisoners; and Karadzic.

7/26/95:
John Cochran reports on the Senate's historical decision to order the President to lift the arms embargo. Senators from both sides of the argument are presented. European allies have threatened to remove their troops if the embargo is lifted. The arms embargo bill requires the President to lift the embargo twelve weeks after the Bosnians ask the UN peacekeepers to withdraw. Bosnian Prime Minister Haris Silajdzic stated that had the embargo been lifted two years ago, there would have been peace in Bosnian a long time ago. Brief statements are made by Senator Frank Lauthnberg, Senator Dirk Kempthorne, Senator Newt Gingrich, Senator Bob Kerney, Senator Sam Nunn, Senator Bob Dole, and President Clinton. Footage of UN peacekeepers in Bosnia is included.

Ron Allen reports on the arrival of the first refugees from Zepa, some of them wounded from the Bosnian Serb offensive, and some of them feeling resentment for not having been helped. Several of the refugees describe their flight. An unidentified elderly woman states that Bosnian Serbs had entirely surrounded Zepa. Benka Mujkic, a 73-year-old woman, lost part of her leg to a grenade that fell near her home. She states that grenades were falling like rain. Fourteen-year-old Edan Pojdzic suffered a broken leg after hiding in the woods with his family for fourteen days. The family ended up being separated during the confusion of the offensive. The UN commander in Bosnia has been negotiating with Bosnian Serb General Ratko Mladic to guarantee the safe passage of the refugees. So far, the UN has managed to obtain permission to monitor the forced removal of the refugees from Zepa. Officials stated that the exodus from Zepa was much less brutal that what the refugees from Srebrenica had to endure. As in Srebrenica, the whereabouts of the men are not known. A brief statement by UN Refugee Official Kris Janowski is included. Footage: Zepa refugees in Sarajevo hospital, Bosnian Serb General Ratko Mladic and UN Commander in Bosnia negotiating, Zepa refugees walking through a town with Mladic and UN soldiers present, a man and an elderly woman refugee getting off a bus in Sarajevo, an elderly woman refugee took shaken to get off a bus.

Peter Jennings reports on the Senate's vote to unilaterally lift the arms embargo against Bosnia, and the support for Bosnian Muslims which has been growing in the Muslim world. Prayers, telethons, demonstrations against the Serbs are being organized throughout the Muslim world. Professor Mary-Jane Deeb from the American University explains that many Muslims believe the West does not care about Bosnian Muslims. Their argument is that had the Bosnian Muslims been Christians or Jews, the whole world would have come to their rescue. It is unclear how many arms were supplied from Muslim countries to the Bosnian Muslim-led government, but some weapons have been supplied most likely. Visits by high-profile Muslim leaders, such as King Hassan of Jordan, shows that there is growing solidarity among Muslims around the world. What many analysts find ominous is that among Bosnian Muslim men and boys there is a growing antagonism towards Europeans and Americans. Footage includes a prayer session in Cairo, a telethon on Jordanian television, King Hassan of Jordan giving a personal donation to the telethon, street demonstrations in the Sudan, Bosnian Muslim soldiers, and Bosnian Muslim refugee camps.

Mladic dismissed the charges that his men have raped and executed fleeing refugees as propaganda, adding that he is the man who defends his people. With a few exceptions, only women and children are granted safe passage out of Zepa. He talks about the Muslim men of fighting age, who are still hiding in the hills surrounding Zepa, and who are at an impasse, with the Serbs still insisting those men should surrender. A few of the wounded men, two of whom give statements, have been taken to a hospital in Sarajevo. A statement by a wounded Bosnian man is included.

September 13, 1995 (?):
Peter Jennings reports on the offensive launched by the Bosnian government. With the help of Bosnian Croat forces, Bosnian government forces are advancing towards towns held by Bosnian Serb forces. In Moscow, a grenade was fired at the American embassy. Russian officials state that the attack was not connected with Russia's official anger at the continuing NATO air strikes in Bosnia.

September 14, 1995:
David Ensor reports on a major development in the Bosnian peace negotiations. An agreement was reached between the Bosnian government and the Bosnian Serb leadership, including General Ratko Mladic and Radovan Karadzic. Bosnian Serbs promised immediate cessation of hostilities and withdrawal of heavy weapons from around Sarajevo; NATO agreed to halt the bombing for 72 hours so that the Serbs could begin withdrawing; the Bosnian government agreed to stop any offensive actions and put its heavy weapons under UN control. U.S. officials say that NATO will resume the air strikes if the Serbs do not withdraw a substantial number of weapons. Footage included: a NATO bomber taking off, Bosnian Serb positions and weapons around Sarajevo, U.S. Assistant Secretary of State Richard Holbrooke shaking hands and meeting in Belgrade with Serbia's President Slobodan Milosevic, Bosnian Serb leader Radovan Karadzic in camouflage, and Bosnian Serb General Ratko Mladic greeting his soldiers.

Tony Birtley reports on the mass flight of Bosnian Serb civilians to the Serb stronghold of Banja Luka. More that 40,000 Bosnian Serb civilians have fled areas taken over by Bosnian Muslim-Croat forces. As UN Spokesman Christopher Guinness points out, this population movement would eventually happen either way, as the West's plan for the division of Bosnia goes along ethnic lines. The Bosnian Serb army has lost 800 square miles to the Bosnian government offensive, leaving 61% in its control. The destruction of military targets by NATO air strikes has only emboldened the Bosnian Serb army. Bosnian Prime Minister Haris Silajdzic states that the government's offensive is justified because it is a response to Bosnian Serb aggression on Bosnian government territory. Footage included: Bosnian Serb refugees fleeing on tractors, Bosnian Muslim and Bosnian Croat forces, damaged Bosnian Serb military facilities; and Bosnian television footage: Bosnian Muslim and Bosnian Croat forces carrying flags at night and shooting into the air (?).

September 15, 1995:
Garrick Utley reports on the Bosnian Serb army withdrawal from the Sarajevo area. Even though Bosnian Serbs lifted the siege from Sarajevo, two shoulder-launched missiles were fired at a NATO reconnaissance plane, near Gorazde. According to the peace agreement, the Bosnian Serb army is expected to withdraw all heavy weapons (some 300 of them) out of a 12 mile radius surrounding Sarajevo. President Clinton gave a warning to the Serbs, stating that NATO will resume air strikes if the Bosnian Serbs break the agreement. In Geneva, U.S. Assistant Secretary of State Richard Holbrooke met with European representatives to find solutions to the Bosnian conflict. Russia has been openly angered by the NATO air strikes. The main obstacle to ending the war has been the division of land and political power. A brief statement is made by U.S. Secretary of State Richard Holbrooke. Footage includes numerous pictures of Bosnian Serbs, tanks, artillery and heavy weapons, and Holbrooke meeting with Russia's representatives.

Tony Birtley reports on the lifting of the siege over Sarajevo. The UN opened two roads leading to Sarajevo in the Serb-held territory, which have enabled trucks carrying food to enter the city. Since the shelling of Sarajevo halted, commercial trucks have been bringing food into Sarajevo. An unidentified Sarajevo woman states it is because of America that the siege has been lifted. Fuad Šisic, a Sarajevo doctor, states that the chances for peace are good as long as the shelling and shooting is discontinued. Hasana, a Sarajevo woman wounded in the marketplace massacre, states that she does not think that she will be able to accept peace, but it is good to try to protect future generations from all that her generation went through. Footage includes the landing of the first NATO cargo plane, a UN food convoy passing through a Bosnian Serb checkpoint, people in the streets of Sarajevo, a Sarajevo indoor market place, and a Sarajevo hospital.

John McWethy reports from the USS America on the readiness of U.S. bombers to respond to any Serb aggression. An incident where two shoulder-launched missiles were fired on Bosnian Serb territory on a NATO air patrol is mentioned. U.S. airplanes have been dropping practice bombs around their aircraft carrier and continue to draw up plans for more bombing missions in case Sarajevo is shelled again or Bosnian Serb radars are turned on. If the Bosnian Serbs do withdraw and stay away, limited air strikes will prove a successful tool of diplomacy. A brief treatment is made by Admiral Leighton Smith. Footage includes U.S. fighter planes on the USS America, U.S. planes dropping practice bombs in the sea, and U.S. planes taking off and landing on the carrier.

Peter Jennings briefly reports on U.S. Assistant Secretary of State Richard Holbrooke's efforts to convince the Bosnian government and Croat forces to discontinue their offensive in the Bosnian Serb territory. Footage includes U.S. Assistant Secretary of State Richard Holbrooke's meeting with Bosnian government and Bosnian Croat leaders.

September 20, 1995:
Peter Jennings briefly reports that the Bosnian Serb army has withdrawn enough weapons to satisfy the peace agreement provisions.

Mike Lee reports from Banja Luka. The Bosnian government and Bosnian Croat assault has resulted in many Bosnian Serb refugees fleeing the countryside towards Banja Luka in Northwest Bosnia. Serb officials have stated that the lined-up bodies shown in the report are those of civilians who were ambushed trying to flee the Bosnian government offensive. The Bosnian Serb refugees are now seeking shelter in Serb-held Banja Luka, which used to have a large Bosnian Muslim population. The flight of thousands of Bosnian Serb civilians from the countryside raises the danger that Serbia itself could become involved in the conflict. Footage of the following is available: teenagers in a dance club, the Bosnian Serb army firing shells, a village burning in the hills, Bosnian Serb civilian corpses, cars with numerous bullet holes, and Bosnian Serb refugees fleeing Bosnian government forces on horse-drawn carriages.

September 21, 1995:
Mike Lee reports on Bosnian Serb refugees passing through Omarska on their way to Banja Luka. There are 5,000 Bosnian Serb refugees in Omarska jostling for blankets and supplies.

Footage includes Bosnian Serb refugees receiving blankets in Omarska and fixing their vehicles, and Omarska detention camp prisoners.

Peter Jennings briefly reports on two U.S. pilots who were wounded while on a mission to find two missing French airmen, whose plane was shot down during one of the bombing raids over Bosnia.

September 28, 1995:
Peter Jennings reports that the Clinton administration's goal in Bosnia remains a multi-ethnic, multi-religious country. Sheila MacVicar reports on the town of Kljuc, and the village of Ramici, which is now held by Bosnian government forces. Kljuc used to be one of the towns where people of different religions and ethnicities lived together. There were 25,000 people living there before the war, but now most of the Serbs have fled since the Bosnian government army took over. The report describes the enormous fear among the Bosnian Serbs who fled Kljuc and Ramici. Interviewed is Mizra Sacik, a 15-year-old Muslim boy, who describes the fleeing of Bosnian Serbs. The destitution of the Ramici village, in the hills above Kljuc, documents the haste with which Bosnian Serbs left the area. Meals were left half-eaten and family treasures and photos were not packed. As the Bosnian government forces advanced to the area, alleged mass graves of Bosnian Muslims who were killed at the beginning of the war (1992) were found. Asim Egrlic, the mayor of Kljuc, states that there is strong evidence that all the 570 people on the missing list are buried in the mass grave found near Ramici. Local people claim to know of two other mass graves in the area. Footage includes houses abandoned by Bosnian Serbs, an alleged mass grave, the inside of an abandoned house in Ramici, and destroyed and burned houses.

October 4, 1995:
Peter Jennings reports on the continuous NATO air strikes, this time in self-defense after a missile radar locked on to the NATO aircraft. The UN reports that Croatian forces have committed atrocities against Serbian civilians in the Krajina region.

Sheila MacVicar reports from the Varivode village on the systematic murder of elderly Serb civilians in the Krajina region. Fourteen elderly Serbs stayed behind after the Croatian offensive, and nine of them were killed. Interviewed is Branka Kovic, a Serb woman, whose parents, both over 70 years, were gunned down on their porch by Croatian forces. UN officials describe such incidents as a systematic campaign to drive the few remaining Serbs out of Krajina. The UN has recorded 125 murders of Serb civilians, most of them over 60 years of age, in the two months since Croatian forces gained control over Krajina. In August the UN recorded what happened in Grubari, where houses were set on fire and residents were murdered. Outside of the village, the UN found a long line of Croatian police vehicles. A brief statement is made by UN Spokesman Alun Roberts. Croatian government officials promised Serbs who decided to stay that they would be safe. Footage of burning houses, Croatian police cars, numerous pools of blood, the building where the Croatian police force in Zadar is located, and Branka Kovic lighting candles on her parent's porch.

Joel Hefley, Secretary of Defense William Perry, and Rep. John Kasich.

Mike Lee reports on life in the town of Gorazde, a predominantly Bosnian Muslim town of 60,000, but which is surrounded by Bosnian Serb forces. The Bosnian Serb army allows the UN to bring in limited supplies only because NATO threatened them with renewed air strikes if the army tried to starve or attack Gorazde. The report documents how Gorazde's citizens are coping with the lack of basic living supplies. IIjija, a young boy, states that there is no school and no soap. A statement is made by Jean Luc Joliat of the International Red Cross. There is also a brief mention of the two French NATO airmen whose plane was shot down.

November 22, 1995:
President Clinton does not need Congress' approval to send U.S. troops to Bosnia, but the stakes are high if he does not have any public support. Jim Whooten reports from D.C. about President Clinton's immediate task of explaining and defending his decision to deploy 20,000 U.S. troops in Bosnia. The report outlines President Clinton's strategy for winning the approval of the American people, beginning with a national radio address and ending with the signing of the Peace Treaty in Paris. Of 60,000 NATO troops, 20,000 will move into Bosnia with or without the support of republican leaders. Statements are made by President Clinton, Senator Bob Dole, and Senator Phil Gramm. Footage includes President Clinton serving food at a homeless shelter, U.S. Army Survey Team soldiers, and President Clinton and Secretary of State Madeleine Albright getting off a plane. Ron Allen reports from Sarajevo on the return of the Bosnian government delegation from Paris. Stating that negotiators have done the best they could, President Alija Izetbegovic returned from the Paris Peace signing. His Prime Minister, Haris Silajdzic, stresses the importance of the implementation which follows the signing of the treaty. Discussed are some of the provisions of the peace agreement which many Bosnians feel very skeptic about. Indicted war criminals, particularly indicted Bosnian Serb leaders Radovan Karadzic and his General Ratko Mladic are to be banned from power. Nikola Koljevic, Karadzic's deputy, said that the plan was a big mistake and that no one had the right to sign it on the Bosnian Serbs' behalf . The general feeling among Bosnian Serbs is that of betrayal. Sarajevo is to be an open and unified city. Both sides will have to remove barricades and troops situated along the front lines. The one million refugees will have the right to reclaim their homes or receive compensation. To many Bosnian Muslim refugees it seems impossible to live on Bosnian Serb territory. A Bosnian Serb and a Bosnian Muslim refugee woman comment on the peace treaty. Footage features crowds welcoming the Bosnian government delegation in Sarajevo, Bosnian Serb leader Radovan Karadzic greeting General Ratko Mladic, Serb civilians walking around Ilidza, barriers around the city of Sarajevo, a barricade being removed in Sarajevo, images of Sarajevo's suburb Grbavica, Bosnian Muslim refugee women, a Bosnian Muslim woman carrying a blanket during winter time, and Bosnian Serb TV footage of a Bosnian Serb woman in Ilidza commenting on the peace agreement.

Footage includes a U.S. soldier and his family praying over a thanksgiving dinner, a thanksgiving church service, and the Pedrosa family thanksgiving dinner.

Tony Birtley reports from Tuzla air base in northeast Bosnia, the future air base for the American troops in Bosnia. The airbase has been a target of Bosnian government soldiers frequently raiding the place for food and equipment, and Bosnian Serb shelling which it was subjected to before the cease-fire. There is also an abundance of abandoned land mines and unexploded bombs which are strewn all over the area. Aside from Tuzla airport, U.S. troops will be covering a mountainous area of around 2,000 square miles where the front line between the Bosnian Serb and Bosnian government forces lies. Anti-American sentiments are high among Bosnian Serbs in Tuzla. Tuzla is also home to 60,000 Bosnian Muslim refugees who fled Srebrenica after it was overrun by Bosnian Serb forces. Two Bosnian Serb young men comment on the arrival of U.S. troops. UN spokesman Lt. Col. Chris Vernon and Sead Avdic, Deputy Mayor of Tuzla make a brief statement. Footage includes a helicopter landing in Tuzla air base, Bosnian Serb tank fire, an unexploded bomb, the UN checkpoint at Tuzla airport, soldiers (which army?) along the front line in Northern Bosnia, and Bosnian Muslim refugees. Ron Allen reports from Sarajevo on the results of the peace negotiations in Serbia. Serbian television reported that Serbian president Milosevic convinced Bosnian Serb leader Radovan Karadzic to implement the peace plan in its entirety. This means that Karadzic and General Ratko Mladic would have to step down from their positions because they have been indicted for crimes against humanity. According to Bosnian Prime Minister Haris Silajdzic, this move is important, as it will help to implement peace in Bosnia. There is concern that the Bosnian Serbs and their army would attempt to destroy the deal. Statements are made by former European Union Mediator Lord Owen, and a Bosnian Serb soldier. Footage includes Serbian TV footage of their (whose?) opening credits, Karadzic speaking at a Bosnian Serb parliament meeting, General Mladic greeting UN soldiers, Bosnian Serb soldiers, Bosnian Serb TV interviewing a Bosnian Serb soldier, street life in the Serb enclave of Sarajevo.

November 28, 1995:
The issue of the deployment of U.S. troops in Bosnia has brought into question U.S. credibility in international affairs. John McWethy reports on President Clinton's efforts to gather support for his Bosnia policy. President Clinton lobbied in Congress and then brought both party leaders for a question-answer session at the White House. He emphasized that the values, the interests of the American people, the leadership of the country, and the partnership with U.S. allies is at stake. Highlighted is also the split between Republican party members, particularly Senator Bob Dole and Senator Phil Gramm. The Senate Arms Committee concluded that the President must be supported on this issue. Statements are made by Senator Bob Dole, Senator Phil Gramm, Senator Mitch McConnell, former National Security Advisor Brent Scowcroft, and former Secretary of Defense James Schlesinger. Footage includes U.S. soldiers in training, U.S. soldiers boarding a helicopter, and a UN helicopter taking off from Tuzla airport. President Clinton is determined to send troops to Bosnia with or without the approval of Congress. According to a survey, the majority of the American public opposes the sending of U.S. troops to Bosnia. Some Republicans claim that President Clinton is more likely to gain support for his Bosnia policy if he is flexible regarding the budget negotiations.

Brit Hume reports on President Clinton's visit to Britain, where he is to participate in the Ireland peace talks. In regards to the Bosnia peace agreement, British Prime Minister John Major hailed the brokered peace agreement as a breakthrough deserving the military support of both countries. President Clinton later addressed both houses of Parliament in Westminster Hall. Footage includes President Clinton shaking hands with Prime Minister John Major, President Clinton speaking in Westminster Hall, President Clinton and Hillary Clinton greeting Queen Elizabeth and Prince Phillip, and the American soldiers whose duty it is to prepare the air base in Tuzla. Thousands of Serbs demonstrated in Iladja (a suburb of Sarajevo) against losing three Sarajevo suburbs to the Bosnian government.

Unidentified date: Ever since the plan for sending U.S. troops to Bosnia was announced, many Republicans in Congress have been critical. John McWethy reports on the congressional turnaround in supporting the President's decision to send troops to Bosnia. This report is cut off.

The team's mission is to find locations for helicopter landing pads and tent cities. The team also sought advice from UN peacekeepers who have been in the area since the war began. The reconnaissance team's orders are to keep a low profile and to negotiate their way out of trouble. U.S. Gen. Stan Cherry, 1st Armored Division, gives an insight into the some of the rules and concerns of the IFOR. Footage featured: U.S. soldiers inspecting a bridge, UN cars and tanks driving through a street, and numerous reporters surrounding a UN tank. John Cochran reports on the Republican party split – between Majority Leader Bob Dole on one side, and his deputy Trent Lott and his supporters on the other – regarding a bill drafted in support of the President sending U.S. troops to Bosnia. The reason for the split is that the bill comes off of a backing of President Clinton's plan. President Clinton met with three Bosnian refugee families who told him that Americans are essential for peace. Statements are made by Senator Bob Dole, Senator Jesse Helms, and President Clinton.

Peter Jennings briefly reports on U.S. troops in Mannheim, Germany loading up their gear on trains destined to Kaposvar, Hungary. Footage of U.S. troops loading cargo trains is available.

December 6, 1995:
John McWethy reports on the continuing debate between President Clinton's foreign policy team and U.S. Congressmen regarding the expected length of stay. The whole world is watching the congressional debate regarding U.S. involvement in Bosnia, which is making some Congressmen uncomfortable. The main reason for debate is the length of stay, as some Senators feel that one year is not long enough to bring about peace. Footage includes U.S. soldiers caught in Bosnia's early snow. The German parliament voted overwhelmingly to send 4,000 German soldiers to Bosnia. Around 3,800 U.S. reserve members will serve alongside their 16,000 active duty fellow soldiers.

Aaron Brown reports on U.S. troops around the country's military bases working on updating their wills, and getting refresher courses before leaving for Bosnia. Sound bites are available of the following politicians and soldiers: Assistant Secretary of State, Richard Holbrooke, Sen. James Inhofe, Defense Secretary William Perry, Chairman Joint Chiefs of Staff Gen. John Shalikashvili, and Senior Airmen Renelle Sym and Butch Gooden. Footage of U.S. troops arriving in snowy Bosnia is available, as well as U.S. troops boarding planes headed for Bosnia.

December 7, 1995:
John McWethy reports on demonstrations among Bosnian Serbs whose Sarajevo neighborhood fell under the control of the Bosnian government as a result of the peace treaty. While more peacekeepers are arriving in Sarajevo, Bosnian Serb demonstrators state there will be no peace in Sarajevo until the treaty is renegotiated. President Clinton is still alone in his determination to send troops to Bosnia. 183 senators signed a letter urging him not to send troops overseas. Statements are made by the following politicians: Nicholas Burns, White House Spokesperson; Assistant Secretary of State Richard Holbrooke; Rep. David Funderburk; and Rep. Jack Metcalf.

December 8, 1995:
President Clinton officially put out the order for 3,800 reserves to report for duty in Bosnia. John McWethy reports on the change in tactics by President Clinton in his effort to win Congress' approval for sending U.S. troops to Bosnia. Clinton states that U.S.-European relations would be damaged if the U.S. backed out of Bosnia. On Capitol Hill, half a dozen veterans came out against sending troops to Bosnia. In Bosnia, UN peace keepers are working on knocking down destroyed houses, and in London, 43 nations met to set up the civilian force which will do everything else the military cannot do. The U.S. is providing $600 million, a fraction of the $10–$20 billion needed to rebuild Bosnia. Footage included: a UN bulldozer knocking down a house, and refugees cooking outside.

Sheila MacVicar's report from the Posavina corridor is cut off. Sound bites from Secretary of State Warren Christopher, and Ken Wolford of the AMVETS are available.

Report is cut off. Sheila MacVicar reports on the Swedish UN peace keepers in the Posavina Corridor. This force will join the incoming NATO forces. Several soldiers, including Captain Carl Tiselius, Major Jonas Frobert, speak and give advice for the American troops.

December 12:
A major obstacle has been overcome at the peace conference. John McWethy reports from Tuzla on the release of the two French pilots who were shot down and held prisoner by the Bosnian Serbs. The pilots were released only after Milosevic threatened to arrest Mladic if he does not release them. The Bosnian Serb army released a video shot after the French pilots were captured in the summer during a bombing raid on Bosnian Serb territory. In Tuzla, American troops were having difficulty landing cargo planes because of inclement weather. Bosnian Serbs refused to cooperate with an American patrol team in central Bosnia, saying that Americans will not be welcome even when a peace agreement is signed. The UN base in Tuzla is still within range of Bosnian Serb artillery in nearby hills. However, UN peacekeepers who have been in Bosnia since the war started say that the Americans are overreacting to the threats they will face in Bosnia. Statements are made by U.S. Army Lieutenant Colonel Sid Kooyman, UN peacekeeper Sergeant Major Harries, and Mark Bartolini, International Rescue Committee. Footage included: Bosnian Serb General Ratko Mladic saying "bon voyage" to the French soldiers while handing them over to the French Chief of Staff, Mladic at a press conference after the hand-over of the pilots, video footage of the shot-down French plane and the French soldiers being held up by Bosnian Serb soldiers, U.S. cargo planes landing on Tuzla airport in dense fog.

Sheila MacVicar reports from Sarajevo on the referendum where Bosnian Serbs were asked whether they were willing to live under Bosnian government rule. Even though they came out to the referendum, most feel their opinion will not change the peace agreement. Several Bosnian Serb Sarajevans are interviewed and the general consensus is that the Serbs fear that the Muslims will kill them in retaliation for the war – and since almost every family has a male member serving in the Bosnian Serb army, they say that without an amnesty they will not be safe. The Bosnian government has given assurances that Serbs not accused of war crimes will be well treated, but many Bosnian Serbs distrust this assurance. Footage includes pictures of Bosnian Serb-held Sarajevo suburbs in the winter, and Bosnian Serbs standing in line to cast their ballots. Peter Jennings reports on how in Germany the thousands of land mines that were placed around the border along East and West Germany had been cleared. In Bosnia, there are an estimated two to three million mines left to be cleared.

December 13:
Forest Sawyer reports on President Clinton's trip to Paris for the signing of the peace treaty, while Congress continues to debate President Clinton's decision to send troops to Bosnia. The Senate decided not to cut the funds, but continued to debate if they should condemn Clinton's Bosnia policy anyway.

John Cochran reports on the House vote regarding the Senate debate about whether to cut the funding for the Bosnia plan. President Clinton did his lobbying from the White House with holocaust survivor Elie Wiesel, who has always supported U.S. involvement in Bosnia. House Republicans are more in favor of completely cutting off the funding for the troops than the Senate are. Congress’ mixed messages regarding Bosnia have made it a peripheral player in the Bosnian conflict. Statements are made by Senator Phil Gramm, Senator Bob Dole, Senator Dianne Feinstein, Vice President Al Gore, and President Clinton, and Representative Joe Scarborough. Footage includes President Clinton boarding a plane to Paris, Congress members debating, and President Clinton with Elie Wisel.

John McWethy reports from Tuzla on the poor weather conditions which are causing delays in the initial American troop preparations for the Bosnian peace mission. There are fewer U.S. troops than were expected, and the ones that are in Tuzla are scouting for living quarters at a UN base occupied by Pakistani soldiers. Only half the planes scheduled to land actually did so. In the upcoming months, small teams of U.S. soldiers will be placed with each non-NATO contingent of troops, making sure they understand the orders given by U.S. commanders. More than 10,000 non-U.S. soldiers will be operating under U.S. command. Statements are made by U.S. Air Force M/Sergeant Edward McDonald, U.S. Army Major Joe Ciampini, and U.S. Army Major Taylor Beittie. Other footage included: snowed out U.S. satellite, planes trying to land in dense fog, U.S. soldiers being snowed on at Tuzla airport, and a U.S. commander shaking hands with a Pakistani soldier.

A labor strike going on in Paris has been making the Bosnian peace treaty signing a traffic and logistics nightmare. Under the peace agreement, all 3.5 million refugees have the right to return home. Jim Whooten reports on refugee children in Tuzla who will continue to remain displaced despite the treaty's promise of repatriation. Housed in an old school building, many of these children saw their mothers die and do not know if their fathers are alive. The reality of the promise of repatriation for Bosnian refugees seems to be simply an illusion. Due to the circumstances, these children cannot go home. Statements are made by several refugees. Footage is available of refugee children having a snowball fight, refugees housed in the school building, and children dancing at the orphanage.

CBS News: In Tuzla, Dan Rather reports on Bosnian Muslim refugees living in refugee camps and villages. A refugee camp is shown where homes were built by a Swedish humanitarian organization. Most of the refugees are women and children, whose husbands and fathers stayed at the front. All of the refugees hope that they will be able to go home one day, but realize that is not possible.
Interviewed is Sevala Abdic, a Bosnian Muslim refugee woman, whose husband stayed behind to defend Srebrenica after it was overrun by Bosnian Serb forces. Other footage includes pictures of Bosnian women and children separated from their men after Srebrenica was overrun by Bosnian Serb forces, Bosnian Serb General Ratko Mladic and UN observers standing by as Bosnian Muslims are separated, and life in the refugee camp.

December 14, 1998:
Peter Jennings reports form Paris on the signing of the Paris Peace Treaty. This peace would have not been possible without President Clinton leading the way in negotiations. Even though the treaty was signed there still were three minor rocket attacks in Sarajevo. Yugoslav President Slobodan Milosevic signed for the Bosnian Serbs, and Bosnian government President Alija Izetbegovic stated that signing the treaty was like taking a bitter pill. Includes footage of a young woman crying, a body being carried in a blanket, and a building hit by a rocket. President Clinton was happy that Congress failed to undermine his Bosnia plan. Resolutions to cut off funding for U.S. troops in Bosnia were defeated in Congress. Brit Hume reports on President Clinton’s meeting in Paris with Yugoslav President Slobodan Milosevic, Croatian President Franjo Tudjman, and Bosnian government President Alija Izetbegovic. President Clinton stated that all three leaders are aware of what the problems are, and are confident they can be overcome. He announced an $85 million economic aid package for Bosnia, adding that no outside force can guarantee a lasting peace in Bosnia. He also appealed to all Bosnians to make the best of the peace agreement for the sake of future generations. The agreement signed in Paris sets off the large scale deployment of American and other troops.

John McWethy reports on the deployment of U.S. troops in Bosnia and the continuing weather problems. While dense fog has caused a major setback for the moving of troops and equipment from Italy, U.S. troops in Germany and Hungary continue with their move towards Bosnia. With the peace agreement now signed, serious deadlines will have to be met, some of which might need American firepower. In the following days, the treaty requires that all Bosnian Serb radars be shut down, all prisoners of war be released, all civilians give up their weapons, and all foreign troops leave the country. The report is cut off. A statement is made by U.S. Air Force Colonel Neal Patton. Footage includes U.S. troops in Bosnia and Germany, a Bosnian Serb antiaircraft radar, prisoners of war, civilians carrying rifles, and the mujahedin.

Jim Wooten reports from the village of Vide Zvaha (sp?), where the American troops will be stationed. Throughout the war, the village was successfully defended by Bosnian Muslim and Croat fighters. A brief statement by a local Bosnian commander, Izudan Lipovac, and a few other soldiers is included. Other footage includes destroyed houses covered by snow, the devastated village school, Bosnian Serb frontlines near the village, and Bosnian soldiers drinking coffee in their bunkroom.

Sheila MacVikar reports on an incident of random violence in Sarajevo on the day of the signing of the Dayton peace agreement in Paris. Four rocket-propelled grenades were fired on Sarajevo. A French helicopter was hit as it flew over Bosnian government army positions. The pediatric ward at Sarajevo's Kosovo hospital now has just one child recovering from war wounds. Two Sarajevans express their hopes for the peace agreement. A statement by UN Spokesman Lieutenant Colonel Chris Vernon is included. Footage includes UN inspectors checking the damage from a grenade, a French helicopter, Sarajevans boarding a bus, Kosovo's pediatric staff, two pediatric patients, and people in the streets of Sarajevo.

Peter Jennings interviews President Clinton on the way to Paris aboard Air Force One. President Clinton left the country without significant public support for the military mission he has committed to. President Clinton comments on the peace agreement, on his motivation to commit the U.S. troops to the Bosnian conflict, on the final outcome of the peace agreement, on the position the U.S. should take as the world's only superpower, the timeframe of the U.S. mission, on facing up to the first casualty in Bosnia, and the political ramifications for him of the first casualty.

December 18, 1995, CBS News with Dan Rather:
An incident involving the UN and U.S. patrol near the town of Brcko is mentioned. The status of Brcko remains unsettled by the peace accords. David Martin reports from Vicenza, Italy on the first U.S. combat unit of 850 para-troopers, the Charlie Company, headed for Bosnia.

Footage includes workers in the Tuzla salt factory, the farmer's market in Tuzla, a man loading coal into a building basement, refugees selling their possessions, and school children in a class.

Dan Rather reports on the first week of U.S. deployment ending in frustration due to the bad weather. Bosnians expect the U.S. troops to bring lasting peace, to stimulate the wrecked economy, and to fix the road to the airport. The U.S. troops can provide some breathing space, but only the people of Bosnia can bring their nation peace.

ABC World News Tonight, December 15, 1995:
The Bosnian Serb leader Radovan Karadzic proclaimed the war in Bosnia over everywhere except in Sarajevo, where he still refuses to hand over the Serb-controlled parts of Sarajevo.

John McWethy reports from Rammstein, Germany where a cargo plane has been trying for the sixth time to reach the U.S. air base in Tuzla.

Report continued from tape 709. A woman was hit in the arm by sniper fire and got some shattered glass in her eye. She was the first casualty after the peace treaty was signed in Paris.

David Martin reports on the first 70 airborne combat troops landing in Tuzla. The landing in night time left many soldiers confused. The darkness created problems for the plans for taking over the airport. The soldiers will have to spend their first night in Bosnia sleeping out in the open. Statements are made by U.S. Army Captain Scott Morrison and U.S. Army Major Richard Hooker. Footage of the following is available: the wounded woman being examined by an eye doctor, U.S. soldiers getting on the plane to Tuzla, U.S. military personnel getting off the plane in Tuzla at night time, and confused U.S. soldiers walking around the airport.

Allen Pizzey reports from the Bosnia/Croatia border, where the first armored division ran into trouble with Croatian railways and bridges not being strong enough to carry U.S. tanks. The mission of the division is to install a pontoon bridge across the Sava river and open the way for the main force. A statement is made by Mato Ilak, a Zupanje local. Footage available: U.S. tanks getting off the train-tracks, U.S. soldiers taking train wagons apart, children sitting on a U.S. tank, and a U.S. tank convoy being led by Croatian police cars.

More U.S. equipment has been arriving in Bosnia, along with 1,500 Russian soldiers who will be based in the American sector. On December 20, 1995, UN forces will hand over command to NATO forces. Bob Simon reports from Tuzla. Mine-clearing in front of the air base gate was the order of the day. On the edge of the front line, Bosnian Muslim soldiers were clearing a minefield. Michael Steiner, [TITLE], met with the mayor in the Serb-held suburb of Tuzla. Steiner pointed out the need for more tolerance in Bosnian Serb media broadcasting. Many Bosnian Serbs are distrustful of the Muslim authorities and see them as impossible to live along side. Two Bosnian Serb men give brief statements. Footage available: planes landing, U.S. soldiers and equipment bring unloaded from a cargo plane, a Bosnian man jumping around a suspected mine area, a cemetery in the fog, and silhouettes of people walking in the fog.

Allen Pizzey reports from Croatia where U.S. troops are passing through on their way to Bosnia. Because army contractors did not come in beforehand to rent the space, there is nowhere to put the troops and the equipment. Because the last station before entering Bosnia also serves the local people, several trains carrying U.S. troops were stopped. A closed factory which was supposed to serve as a base for the troops went back into business, so the soldiers ended up having to spend the night in tanks and fighting vehicles. Brief statements are made by Petro Peric (sp), the Zupanje train-station master, and a U.S. soldier. Other footage available: U.S. engineers unloading containers with gear in them, backed-up trains loaded with military trucks, a closed factory, U.S. soldiers being served breakfast at a local restaurant, and cars being transported on a ferry boat.

Aaron Brown reports on U.S. Secretary of State William Perry’s visit to U.S. troops stationed in Tuzla, Bosnia. Even though the peace agreement guarantees the free movement around Bosnia, many Bosnians are still afraid. More than a dozen non-Serbs taken by Bosnian Serb forces are still missing. In his statement, Perry points out that NATO is aware of this fear, but that it is not their duty to build confidence among the people. Nura Ahmadinovic (sp), and1st Cavalry Squadron Lieutenant Charles Li make statements. Footage available: Secretary Perry taking a walk over the Sava bridge, civilians watching a U.S. tank pass by, streets of Sarajevo, and a U.S. tank parked next to a "Mines" sign.

January 19, 1996:
Peter Jennings gives an outline of what was required to happen during the first 30 days following the signing of the peace agreement. All the factions were required to pull back their troops one mile from the lines they were at before the peace agreement was signed. They all have done so, which enables NATO to patrol the zone of separation. All sides were required to provide NATO forces with plans for minefields. In many areas the parties have cooperated, which allowed for 1,400 minefields to be identified. The exchange of prisoners is proving to be difficult, as only 225 prisoners of war have been exchanged. The Bosnian government still demands to know the fate of 25,000 Muslims, who, they insist, the Bosnian Serbs have not accounted for. Many of the missing Muslims are presumed to be dead. U.S. Secretary of State for Human Rights, John Shattuck, will travel to Bosnia to investigate alleged mass executions perpetrated by the Bosnian Serbs.

David Ensor reports from Tuzla on surfacing evidence regarding alleged mass executions. Many NATO commanders believe it is not their duty to look into the allegations. Bosnian government television reported findings of a mass grave. More survivors are willing to speak out, as well. While pressures are rising to have NATO forces investigate the sites, they agreed to provide armed escorts to war crimes investigators, but refuse to guard them. Some Bosnians fear that without NATO's protection, crucial evidence of war crimes may be destroyed. Statements are made by NATO Ground Commander General Sir Michael Walter, Mevludin Orlic, a Srebrenica survivor, and Commander of the First Armored Division Colonel John Batiste. Footage included: an abandoned iron mine, a British tank patrolling the mine, Bosnian government TV: a man sifting through human bones; and Christian Science Monitor: human bones scattered in the soil near Srebrenica.

January 22, 1996:
David Ensor reports from Tuzla, on dozens of alleged mass graves throughout Bosnia which remain unguarded. Human rights activists are worried that NATO’s refusal to guard the sites will send the message that further killings will not be punished. The U.S. has promised the war crimes court that they will guard the sites from the air. Statements are made by NATO commander Admiral Leighton Smith, Ivan Lupis of Human Rights Watch, and U.S. Assistant Secretary of State John Shattuck. Footage included: Judge Richard Goldstone on his trip to Bosnia, and John Shattuck touring Srebrenica.

January 24, 1996:
John McWethy reports that American troops in Bosnia have been on high alert because of a possible terrorist attack against American troops in Bosnia. Aisa Abdullah Ali, an American sympathizer of Islamic fundamentalism, who is suspected in the 1983 bombing of a U.S. military base in Saudi Arabia, was sighted in Bosnia. U.S. government worries were heightened by the sentencing of Sheik Omar Abdullah Rahman in New York for a conspiracy to blow up buildings such as the UN headquarters. A statement is made by U.S. Secretary of State William Perry. Other footage available: U.S. troops in Bosnia, para-military mujahedin soldiers, mug shots of Aisa Abdullah Ali, and the 1983 bombing of the U.S. base in Saudi Arabia. In Sarajevo, the NATO Implementation Force suffered its first casualties. Two Portuguese and one Italian were killed when apparently some explosives at their base went off.

The commander of U.S. forces in Europe, General George Joulwan, has said that he lacks the forces to guard the 180 sites in Bosnia. Sheila MacVikar reports from the village of Ljolici, where five Bosnian men are searching for the remains of their relatives and neighbors. Farija Mucic (sp), one of the five survivors of the massacre, explains what happened on September 19, 1992. Twenty-three men, women, and children were taken out of their homes during the night, and were shot on a nearby hillside. Mucic named all the Bosnian Serb who participated in the massacres. He says that they were his neighbors and co-workers. British forces patrol this area, but will not guard the site. Local Bosnian Muslims fear that the evidence might be destroyed by the time war crimes investigators arrive, as this area is scheduled to be returned to Bosnian Serb control.
Footage included: pictures of the destroyed village, and British NATO troops.

February 5, 1996:
John McWethy reports from Tuzla on the death of U.S. First Sergeant Dugan. Pentagon officials say privately that Sergeant Dugan broke some cardinal rules and paid for it with his life. An eyewitness, Hajrudin Vukovic, states that Sergeant Dugan and another soldier were looking for mines in an area which was know to be a minefield. His death follows that of two Portuguese and one Italian soldier who died in Sarajevo as a result of a souvenir bomb exploding in the army barracks.

Peter Jennings reports on two disputes threatening the peace process. In Mostar, Bosnian Croats are protesting against European officials who want to unify the Bosnian Croat and Bosnian Muslim sections of Mostar. In Sarajevo, the Bosnian government refuses to release two Bosnian Serb officers who are suspected of having killed civilians. Bosnian Serbs are threatening retaliation.

February 8, 1996:
U.S. Secretary of State Richard Holbrooke will travel to Bosnia due to recent threats by Bosnian Serbs to retaliate against the Bosnian government. The Bosnian government has captured and accused two Bosnian Serb officers of war crimes. Linda Pattillo (sp) reports that much of the evidence of war crimes was not collected by Tribunal investigators, but by the Bosnian government. Bosnian Serb TV reported that Djordje Djukic, one of the accused Bosnian Serb army generals, was only in charge of logistics. War crimes investigators claim that by keeping the Bosnian Serb army supplied, he might serve as a key witnesses for the indictment of key generals in the Bosnian Serb army. The dispute is likely to continue as Bosnian government officials are determined to catch all the war criminals, regardless of what the Bosnian Serbs say. Statements are made by Mirsad Tokaca of the Bosnia War Crimes Committee, and Tom Warrick of the Coalition for International Justice. Footage available: Bosnian Serb TV Dj, a Bosnian Serb army spokesman and General Djordje Djukic giving statements, Zoran Petrovic-Pirocanac footage taken after the fall of Srebrenica, and a mass grave (Srebrenica?).

February 9, 1996:
U.S. officials have warned the Bosnian Serbs that they will face serious consequences if they continue to defy the Dayton Peace Accord. John McWethy reports that Serb defiance is unsettling U.S. forces. Unspecified threats to kill NATO soldiers were made by Bosnian Serbs. Many of the threats came from Bosnian Serb General Ratko Mladic who himself is an indicted war criminal. The dispute arose after two Bosnian Serb generals were arrested by the Bosnian government and charged with war crimes. Richard Goldstone, the chief prosecutor of the War Crimes Tribunal is being urged to either indict the two Serb officers or to force the Bosnian government to let them go quickly. Statements are made by U.S. Army Lieutenant Colonel Randy Anderson and U.S. General John Shalikashvili. Other footage available: U.S. tanks driving around in snow, a U.S. checkpoint, Richard Goldstone in a meeting, Mladic at a military parade, and Bosnian Serb TV footage of Bosnian Serb General Djordje Djukic giving a statement.

January 12, 1996:
Two Bosnian Serb generals may have been sacrificed in order to keep the peace in Bosnia. Linda Patillo reports that the two officers were taken away from the Sarajevo jail and flown to the Hague. The Bosnian government believes that their testimony could link high Bosnian Serb officials to war crimes. Another controversy erupted after Bosnian Serb leader Radovan Karadzic, also indicted for war crimes, was travelling through Bosnia, his official motorcade passing two U.S. checkpoints. Statements are made by Bosnian Special Envoy Muhamed Sacirbey, and International Forces Spokesman Major Tom Moyer. Footage available: the two Bosnian Serb generals being taken out of jail, Bosnian Serb leader Radovan Karadzic giving a speech, and U.S. Envoy Richard Holbrooke with Muhamed Sacirbey. The report is cut off.

January 15, 1996:
In Bosnia, the IFOR has arrested 11 people for the alleged planning of attacks against NATO. According to U.S. officials, there were several foreign soldiers among the arrested, some of them Iranian nationals. In the house in which they were found, there were weapons and materials for making bombs. NATO officials have long feared that some of the para-military mujahedin troops who fought in Bosnia stayed behind, even though the Bosnian government was ordered to dismiss all foreign soldiers. Footage included: French NATO troops in Bosnia and para-military mujahedin soldiers.

January 16, 1996:
The Clinton administration has threatened the Bosnian government to cancel its plans to equip and train the Bosnian government army. While raiding a former ski chalet in Fojnica, the NATO Implementation Force found what looked like a terrorist school. There were weapons and children's toys wired with explosives. The Bosnian government, on whose territory the raid took place, claims that it was a anti-war crime school. U.S. officials stated there was no specific evidence suggesting plans for the attack of NATO forces.

Upon the urging of their government leaders, hundreds of Bosnian Serbs are fleeing Sarajevo suburbs which are scheduled to fall under Bosnian government control. Linda Patillo reports out of Vogosca, a Sarajevo suburb, on the flight of Bosnian Serbs out of Sarajevo. Playing on the fear of retaliation by the Bosnian government, Bosnian Serb television has been urging Bosnian Serb families to leave Sarajevo. The families were told to move towards Serb-held territory. Vogosca is supposed to be monitored by a 300-strong international police force, but eve that is not enough to ease the fear among Bosnian Serbs. The Dayton Accords envisioned people living where they want to, even in towns controlled by former enemies, but the reality is quite different. Statements are made by UN Spokesman Kris Janowski and an unidentified Bosnian Serb man. Other footage included: a Bosnian Serb TV news clip, Bosnian Serb families moving their belongings, and a town hall meeting with UN representatives and Bosnian government police(?).

January 25, 1996:
The last Bosnian Serb civilians left Vogosca today. Some fled on foot, others in buses. The first police force composed of Bosnian Muslims, Bosnian Croats, and some Bosnian Serbs moved into the suburb and set up checkpoints.

January 27, 1996:
Hundreds of Bosnia Muslim families have returned to a Sarajevo suburb, which was held by Bosnian Serb forces. Linda Patillo reports on the return of a Bosnian Muslim family to their home on Sefika Doric street in a Sarajevo suburb. The Bosnian Serb soldier who lived there fled several days before. Alma Djaka (sp), a Bosnia Muslim woman, returned four years after she fled Sarajevo. On May 5, 1992, Bosnian Serb soldiers came to this street, arrested all the men of fighting age, and forced women and children to flee. There are no more Bosnian Serbs living there, except an elderly couple who believe that they can still get along with their Bosnian Muslim neighbors. However, many of their Bosnian Muslim neighbors are not so sure they will be able to get along again. Statements are made by several residents of Sefika Doric street. Footage available: empty apartments, ravaged apartments, and people walking in the street.

March 1, 1996:
Richard Gizbert reports on the trial of the first Bosnian Serb General. The International War Crimes Tribunal has charged General Djordje Djukic with crimes against humanity. General Djukic was the head of logistics under Bosnian Serb Commander General Ratko Mladic. He was responsible for keeping the Bosnian Serb army supplied. Milan Vujin, defense attorney for General Djukic, states that the Tribunal has no facts regarding possible crimes. The General’s indictment is important because it is believed that the war crimes prosecutors are willing to drop the charges against him in return for testimony against Ratko Mladic or Bosnian Serb leader Radovan Karadzic. Statements are made by an unidentified man and a civilian woman. Footage included: Ratko Mladic greeting his soldiers, Zoran Petrovic-Pirocanac footage taken after the fall of Srebrenica, an injured man being carried away, Ratko Mladic kissing his soldiers, Karadzic and Mladic shaking hands, and a Sarajevo family visiting a grave.

March 5, 1996:
In Bosnia, an American servicewoman reports that she was raped by two soldiers from the Czech republic. Czech investigator said she consented to having sex with the men.

March 7, 1996:
Garrick Utley conducts an investigation of war crimes committed in the Srebrenica region. Drazen Erdemovic, one of the Bosnian Serb soldiers who participated in the killing of Bosnian Muslim men in Srebrenica has agreed to disclose what happened. Vanessa Vasic-Janekovic, on assignment for ABC, conducted an interview with him in Serbia. The tapes were seized by Serb authorities in Belgrade. She describes what Erdemovic told her about the executions, giving her details about the plans and means for the executions. Erdemovic agreed to testify in the Hague, but both his friend and Erdemovic were arrested by Serb police. The War Crimes Tribunal has issued a formal order to the Serb government for access to these men. The testimonies of these two men could establish the chain of command for ordering the executions in Srebrenica which could incriminate the highest Bosnian Serb military and political leaders. A statement is made by Judge Richard Goldstone of the International War Crimes Tribunal. Footage includes Zoran Petrovic-Pirocanac footage taken after the fall of Srebrenica, a Serbian TV news clip, a mass grave, a photo of Erdemovic, a map drawn out by Erdemovic detailing where the men and boys would be arriving, buildings where the men were killed, and the Tribunal building in the Hague.

John McWethy reports on the Tribunal’s efforts to get Serbia’s President Slobodan Milosevic to cooperate. Milosevic has continuously refused to allow the War Crimes Tribunal access to witnesses or suspects. If the two Bosnian Serb soldiers get a chance to testify, this would open the doors for possible convictions of Bosnian Serb General Ratko Mladic and Bosnian Serb leader Radovan Karadzic. If Milosevic refuses to cooperate, Yugoslavia could face sanctions again. A Bosnian Muslim man from Srebrenica stated that Muslims and Serbs will not be able to live together again, unless someone is made accountable for the crimes. A statement is made by Thomas Warrick of the Coalition for International Justice. Other footage: Milosevic at the Dayton peace negotiations, the Tribunal in session, General Mladic greeting Karadzic, people in Belgrade standing in line, a woman handing out bread in Belgrade, and two Bosnian government soldiers.

March 8, 1996:
A holiday of women turned into an angry demand to know what happened to their sons and husbands. Mike Lee reports from Tuzla. A crowd of several thousand women marched to the Red Cross headquarters demanding to know what happened to their husbands and sons who stayed behind in Srebrenica after the town was overrun by Bosnian Serb forces. Among the refugees, some of the villages surrounding Tuzla are known as "women's towns." In the village of Rosulje, there are only 15 men, and 500 women and children. Some of the children have shown signs of mental trauma. Three refugee women give statements about having to fend for their family without their husbands. Other footage includes refugee women and children in Rosulje village.

March 18, 1996:
Serbia's President Slobodan Milosevic has agreed today to hand over two Bosnian Serb soldiers who had made admissions to participating in the mass executions of Bosnian Muslim men in Srebrenica. Garrick Utley reports on Milosevic's promise to extradite the two soldiers by the end of the month. Erdemovic stated that after Bosnian Muslim were taken out of Srebrenica, got orders from this superiors to shoot around 1,200 of them. The Tribunal hopes to learn from how high up the orders came. Both the Bosnian Serb General Ratko Mladic and Bosnian Serb leader Radovan Karadzic have been indicted for war crimes. A statement is made by U.S. Secretary of State Warren Christopher. Footage included: Milosevic shaking hands with Christopher, a picture of Drazen Erdemovic, and Zoran Petrovic-Pirocanac footage taken after the fall of Srebrenica.

Linda Patillo reports from Grbavica where the last stage of the peace process was met with violence. On March 19, the last Serb-held suburb falls into Bosnian government control. NATO forces intervened as Bosnian Serb arsonists and looters went on a rampage to destroy as much property as they could. Apartments and houses were set on fire with the goal to leave as little as possible for the former enemies and to intimidate other Bosnian Serbs to flee. Statements are made by a Bosnian Serb woman and an unidentified man. UN refugee officials opened a safe house for people too afraid to stay in their houses. Other footage available: NATO soldiers detaining arsonists at gunpoint, burning apartment buildings, women trying to stop the fire, a NATO soldier carrying a child out of a burning building, and two women guarding their home.

March 19, 1996:
Linda Patillo reports on the reopening of Sarajevo. After four years of being trapped in the center of Sarajevo, Bosnian Muslims, Croats, and Serb were finally able to return to their homes. Grbavica, the suburb many Sarajevans returned to still smoldered from the fire set by Bosnian Serbs as they fled. Some buildings have been booby trapped, and the frontlines which ran through Grbavica are still heavily mined. U.S. soldiers greeted the returning people with leaflets warning them not to enter buildings before they were checked for traps. Other footage included: people crossing the bridge of "Brotherhood and Unity," women crying, people looking at their destroyed apartments, a man breaking into his apartment, and people going through family photographs. The major military goals of the peace agreement have been realized. However, there are still more than 200 Iranian soldiers supporting the Bosnian government who have not yet left, and U.S. aid is withholding $200 million of reconstruction money until they do. Civilian life is dangerous and the small international police force is not enough. The level of mistrust between Bosnian Muslims, Croats, and Serbs is so high that long term cooperation on many issues presents nothing but problems. This includes POW’s to be exchange, civilians who want to go home, an acceptable central government, and free elections. Other footage: mujahedin para-military soldiers, a destroyed bridge, Bosnian government police, Omarska detention camp, and civilians hurdled in a field (Srebrenica ?).

March 20, 1996:
John MCWethy reports on the life of 1,200 U.S. soldiers in the area of Olovo, Bosnia. As time goes by, they get to feel the effects the war has had upon the local people. Statements are made by U.S. Army Sergeant Charles Nichols, U.S. Army Sergeant Kelly Endsley, and Battalion Commander Lieutenant Colonel Randy Anderson. Footage included: U.S. soldiers detaining a Bosnian soldier at a checkpoint, U.S. soldiers in their tent, two U.S. soldiers watching TV in a warehouse, Olovo locals, a Bosnian Muslim graveyard, and children playing soccer.

March 21, 1996:
Madeleine Albright, U.S. Ambassador to the UN, was driven out of Vukovar, Croatia. Vukovar was a Serb-held city during the war, but under the Bosnia peace accords, the Serbs have had to surrender control to the Croatian government. Her convoy was stoned on the way out of town.

March 22, 1996:
On her way through Bosnia, Madeleine Albright, U.S. Ambassador to the UN, has seen first-hand evidence of mass murder. The UN says that at least 3,000 people, perhaps as many as 8,000, were killed by the Bosnian Serbs. Garrick Utley reports on the UN findings of one mass grave behind a farm in Branjevo village, where at least 1,000 Bosnian Muslim men were executed. Ambassador Albright stated that the sight of human bones and an actual decomposing body was disgusting and horrifying. U.S. aerial reconnaissance photos provide further confirmation of the full extend of the graves. The photos show bodies and earth-moving equipment for burying the bodies. Investigators determined the location of the farm from a drawing done by Drazen Erdemovic, a Bosnian Serb soldier who participated in the five and a half hour long executions. NATO Commander for Bosnia Admiral Leighton Smith issued a warning to the Serbs by stating that they (?) know that atrocities took place. Footage included: mass graves, human bones, aerial photos, Erdemovic's map, and a picture of Erdemovic. The Tribunal issued indictments for atrocities committed against Bosnian Serb civilians. Three Bosnian Muslims and one Bosnian Croat have been charged for their involvement in the torture and murder of inmates, men and women, at a prison camp in Central Bosnia. One U.S. soldiers was killed and one injured after their truck slid off of a portable military bridge.

March 26, 1996:
For months, NATO commanders said that they would only conduct military operations because of the fear of "mission creep." This refers to the shift in focus of the mission, which can prove dangerous. John McWethy reports on NATO's new work in Bosnia. The U.S. military and its allies are expanding efforts to repair roads and bridges, to repair hospitals and power plants, and to clear minefields. The change is due, in part, to growing worry regarding the slowness with which the civilian agencies are approaching the rebuilding of infrastructure that is considered crucial to the success of the peace agreement. Statements are made by NATO Spokesman Major Simon Haselock, Pentagon Spokesman Ken Bacon, and U.S. Secretary of Defense William Perry. Footage included: U.S. soldiers clearing land mines, patients in a hospital, destroyed buildings, and U.S. soldiers building housing (?) infrastructure.

April 1, 1996:
Tihomir Blakcic (sp), a Bosnian Croat commander, turned himself in to face charges of crimes against humanity.

Virtually all of those indicted by the Tribunal are still free, including Bosnian Serb Commander General Ratko Mladic, and Bosnian Serb leader Radovan Karadzic, who stated on Bosnian Serb Television that he does not recognize the authority of the Tribunal. The report states that many criminals are at large because NATO troops show no interest in apprehending them. Statements are made by Tribunal Prosecutor Grant Neimann, the father of one of Tadic's victims, and a civilian man.

International war crimes investigators used earth movers and metal detectors near Srebrenica. Their goal is to provide evidence against those charges with war crimes. Indictments have been issued both for Radovan Karadzic and General Ratko Mladic. Outside of Mladic's headquarters, U.S. soldiers were met with thrown stones and an angry Bosnian Serb crowd who thought that the soldiers were there to arrest Mladic. A statement is made by Hamid Music who saw the killings at the first grave site. Footage includes Karadzic giving a speech, and Mladic at a church service.

The Parallel Worlds of Kosovo
Produced in 1995, this provides a detailed analysis of how the government, education, and health care institutions in Kosovo are almost entirely segregated along ethnic lines. Analysis is presented through numerous interviews with Serbian and Albanian officials, education and health care workers, and civilians. Fehmi Agani, an ideolog of the Kosovo Albanians Radivoj Popovic, head of University.There are interviews with seven Albanians, fifth-year medical students who are meeting in the attic of someone's home in order to finish their studies; illegal Albanian medical school. Albanian professors were replaced by Serb professors from elsewhere. Selami Recica, a history teacher for 25 years, says that when the teachers of Albanian ethnicity were dismissed, they were forced to organize classes in private homes, which were turned into schools. These schools organized by Albanian teachers are ubiquitous, especially in Vranjevac, a poor suburb of Pristina. With no Serb residents, this suburb is known as the starting point of the Albanian protests and rallies. One of the many schools organized in this suburb, a Secondary school for postal workers, had to change its location 34 times in 1991. 570 students in 18 classes, which meet in three shifts.

The Jim Lehrer News Hour
This report includes a Paul Davis (ITN) report and live discussion in studio featuring Ivo Daadler of Brookings Institution and Roy Gutman, Newsday journalist. Paul Davis reports on the arrest of Radislav Krstic, the highest ranking Bosnian Serb Army officer next to General Ratko Mladic. His December 2 arrest followed the sealed indictment issued on October 30, 1998 by the International War Crimes Tribunal for the Former Yugoslavia in the Hague. Krstic was arrested on charges of genocide in Srebrenica between July 11 and November 1, 1995. The footage features photos of Krstic, including one with Karadzic, and Pirocanac footage taken after the fall of Srebrenica. Davis' report is followed by Daadler's and Gutman's comments on the arrest, and their projections of how this event will reflect on the Bosnian peacekeeping mission. The two guests also comment on the statement issued by the State Department, taking a clear stand on Milosevic's role in the Bosnian conflict. The State Department states that "Milosevic is the problem" as confrontation between Serbia and Montenegro is also discussed.

A&E Biography: Josip Broz Tito
This documentary film traces the life of Josip Broz Tito, the founder and leader of the former Federal Socialist Republic of Yugoslavia from 1945 to 1980. During World War Two, Tito and his Partisans resisted the Nazi occupation of Yugoslavia. Tito became the most important and prominent leader of post-war Yugoslavia. His legacy is not free of controversy; he was a Communist leader who ruled his country by dictatorship, but also a figure who stood against Stalin's expansion in the East. This biography presents Tito's life and legacy through archival footage and testimonials by many experts, including Franklin Lindsay, author of the Beacons in the Night; Stevan K. Pavlowitz, historian; Jasper Ridley, biographer; Lorraine M. Lees, author of Keeping Tito Afloat; James Raymond, former New York Times correspondent; Richard West, biographer; and Lawrence Eagleburger, former Secretary of State.

- (05:11:05) The Russian Minister of Foreign Affairs, Igor Ivanov, holds a press conference in Moscow: he denies that Yugoslav security forces are causing a humanitarian catastrophe in Kosovo; people of all ethnicities are dying in Serbia; the number of refugees grows rapidly; American leadership attempts to make it look like Yugoslav security forces' action against the Siptars is causing the refugee crisis when, in fact, NATO is responsible for it (voice over, translation).

Besim Kastrati (sp), Kosovar Albanian from Pristina and chief of the spy network, interviewed. Formerly with the Yugoslav Army, now a security guard for OSCE, Kastrati says Lance Johnston ordered all of OSCE's local employees to spy. Lance Johnston, U.S. army major and State Department representative who worked with OSCE in Bosnia, instructed the local staff to gather information on the size and number of [Yugoslav Army] patrols in Pristina, the number of soldiers in each patrol and the direction of their movement, the number of vehicles passing through Pristina, and on murders, activities and explosions throughout the city. The spy network, which consisted of four Albanians, continued to operate even after OSCE left Kosovo. American officials supplied Albanian spies with a satellite telephone for communication; passwords were used to establish contact. Kastrati admits that the spy network contributed to the aggression and admits this was a big mistake; Pristina is populated with Albanians too; [NATO] indiscriminate in its targets.

- (05:43:02) Milovan Drecun reports from Pristina: NATO criminals raided two Serb villages, Vrbovac and Mogela, with four cluster bombs, although there are no military targets in or outside these villages. This grave crime parallels the fascist extermination. The use of cluster bombs is banned by international conventions. Yellow mines from cluster bombs rained on the two villages. A few mines fell near a village school and injured and killed a civilian. Cluster bomb debris contains a message from Albanians to Serbs: "It's payback time." Local Serbs interviewed: express fear of mines. Bombardment of Serb-populated areas, where Albanians are not in majority, with cluster bombs shows that, through its criminal aggression against Yugoslavia, NATO aims to scare Kosovo Serbs, drive them out from their centuries-old homeland, and create an ethically cleansed Kosovo-Metohija. (TRANSLATE).

Local Serbs to Clark: Serbs are friends with the American people, who must influence their leadership to stop their barbarian attack on our country. Clark tours elementary school damaged by detonations. Clark: bombardment caused more damage to American people than to Serbs; becomes aware of the absurdity of the U.S. leadership's decisions.

- (05:54:57) Council of University of Belgrade awards Clark honorary doctorate for his life's work and exceptional contribution to human rights.

- (05:55:21) An excerpt from Clark's interview with RTS. Clark disagrees with NATO's action; thinks NATO should have been abolished ten years ago. NATO violates the UN Charter, international humanitarian law, and other conventions on human rights. NATO should be outlawed, that will be a difficult struggle. We [West] must gain a greater understanding of Slavs; Slavs are the largest ethnic group in Europe, but have been impoverished and under attack for years. Yugoslavia–one of the strongest and proudest in the Slavic family. NATO is committing crimes against humanity all over the world under the excuse of intervening in humanitarian catastrophes (i.e. use of Tomahawk cruise missiles, strike against pharmaceutical factories in Sudan) which have to be stopped. (Voice over translation not in accordance with original in English).
- The authorities wish to inform the public not to discuss any information pertaining to aggression on our country, its resulting effect, and position of defense forces, over their mobile phones.

August 1995 Croatian Serb refugee crisis did not affect humanitarian organizations; at the time, the New York Times reported Bill Clinton was a mass murderer of Serbs, due to help he gave Tudjman for Operation Storm. Serb refugees from Croatia are a blight on humanity. The first NATO bombs in Yugoslavia fell on these refugees housed in old army barracks in Kursumlija. (Archival SRT footage shows "Serb" ? refugees from Croatia. Policeman helping refugees might be wearing Croatian police insignia)
- Political commentary on downed F-117: the mutant NATO alliance woke up to reality as they saw they could not break spirit of a small nation. Bloodthirsty beasts become concerned over the souls of Albanian martyrs. Media monsters CNN and SKY shoot murderous arrows. Poor Albanian souls pitied by CNN. William Walker was a spy wretch. New neo-Nazi attack on the Balkans caused verifiers to leave. Rugova knew of this attack too, and that is why Albanians' leave was organized. Political commentary stresses CNN's and SKY's propaganda of Albanian refugees running away from Serbian repression. There are refugees, but less than what is said, because NATO murders them. (translate; extremely propagandist)

Croatian Spring: New Political Parties in Croatia / Hrvatsko Proljece: Nove Politicke Stranke U Hrvatskoj
00:00.00
- The program was filmed to introduce the Croatian public to new political parties, because the official media is still controlled by the ruling political party (the Communist Party). The speaker outlines the beginning of the Croatian movement for pluralism as beginning at the end of the 1980s, mostly within the framework of various citizen petitions against human rights violations, a petition for the return of the monument to Duke Jelacic to Zagreb's main square, and, among others, a petition against the repression of Kosovo. Each political party in the following program is first briefly introduced by the speaker, and then by its own spokesperson.

HDZ (Croatian Democratic Union):
- Neven Jurica, one of the party's founders, speaks. Franjo Tudjman speech shown. HDZ's Ivan Govron speaks against compulsory learning of the Cyrillic alphabet. Neven Jurica: one of the party's main characteristics is connecting Croats from the Diaspora to Croats in Croatia. Socialist Federalist Republic of Yugoslavia is a contractual union, and ability of nations to determine whether they want to remain within it is a fundamental democratic principle.

HSLS (Croatian Social Liberal Union):
- Dr. Ljubomir Antic speaks on the party's foundation: first sentence of founding session was "tiredness with Communist regime," before fall of Communism in Eastern Europe. Need to reaffirm the individual through participation in multi-party political system, free enterprise, independent legal system, and everything that proved successful in Western countries, where HSLS thinks Croatia should see itself in the future. Party is against radicalism. Vlado Gotovac speaks about changes needed to be made in the institutions, beginning with the Croatian Parliament. Croatia needs to make an economic profile through international relations, the revival of the free market, and the revival of communal system within local boundaries. A new economic and cultural physiognomy of the country needs to be created. Policy toward the police, and paramilitary and parapolice organizations which exist in Yugoslavia needs to be established. The countryside will need to be taken into consideration.

HSS (Croatian Peasant Party):
- Brief history of the assassination of its founder Stjepan Radic in 1928 in the Belgrade Parliament. Stjepan Herceg presents the Croatian Peasant Party: the party was renewed because its politics have been tried and found true in the past. The party made it possible for the workers and peasants to become an important political factor. HSS insists on the dissolution of the UDBA, or secret police. Various HSS demands were not met by the Croatian Parliament. HSS will demand the honorable return of all those who left Croatia. HSS wants to revitalize the Croatian villages and islands. HSS's goal is Croatia's development in cultural, economic, and political aspect. The party's motto has always been, and will be: "Faith in God, and peasant unity."

00:27.10
SDSH (Social Democratic Party of Croatia):
- Antun Vujic speaks about the foundation of the party during human rights protest. The opposition needs to be united: the Green party, women, and people who are for change, but not for changes which could bring risks or a catastrophe. Those kinds of changes are still possible within Yugoslavia. Many concerns are characterized as national concerns. When it comes to Croatia's role within Yugoslavia, the party's motto is "there can never be too much federalism." Privatization is necessary, and social democracy stands for elements of socialism, especially of the Scandinavian type, but also for promoting free enterprise. The party is mostly supported by educated people and the scientific community.

00:33.55
Trans-national Radical Party:
- Vito »esmadziski speaks for the party: Trans-national Radical Party seeks global solutions, and the United States of Europe. The party was founded in Italy. The party is anti-prohibitionist, against prohibitions of any kind. It is anti-militarist, a non-violent party, and an ecologically conscious party. This is a post-modern political party. The party will be a part of a coalition, and intends to found a European Federalist organization (list). The future lies in individualism, not in the collective.

00:41.10
Green Party:
- Zoran Ostric speaks on behalf of the Green Party: this is not only a party but has larger goals. New knowledge should be used to the benefit of all people and not for creation of nuclear power plants and weapons. The party's long-term goal is creation of new, modern, ecological economy. Motto: No ecology without democracy, no democracy without ecology. This is a party for human rights and modern pluralist democracy.

Correspondent Specia: The Serbs' Last Stand
Produced in 1998. Correspondent Phil Rees examines the roots of Serbian nationalism; the significance of the 1389 Kosovo battle for the Serbs; Kosovar Albanians and their views of Kosovo history and Serbian nationalism; the post-WWII history of Yugoslavia, and of Kosovo within it; Milosevic's rousing of Serbian nationalism; ethnic tensions during the last decade; the Serbian church as a symbol of Serbian patriotism; whether Milosevic's government will protect the Kosovar Serbs; Serbian nationalists as they prepare for their own defense of Kosovo; the emergence of KLA; and the future of Kosovo if war breaks out. Interviews with Albanians and Serbs illustrate the role of myths in creating ethnic identities, the pervasiveness of distrust and prejudice among the two ethnic groups, and each group's views in regards to the apartheid-like division of their society. Parallel Albanian society within Kosovo is examined through the educational system and other social encounters. Albanian educators reject Serbian curriculum. Crude propaganda, techniques developed under Communism, is now used skillfully to drive Serbs to war.

Interviews featured: Kosovar Albanian civilians; Serb nationalists Kosta Bulatovic and Savo Markovic; Albanian civilians Zechiai Metai and his wife; Pristina Serbs; Serb and Albanian Head teachers Bogi Gogic and Sedat Ramadani; a Kosovo Serb who suffered at hand of KLA; and Kosovo Serb leader Momo Trajkovic.

Panorama: The Mind of Milošević
BBC reporter Gavin Hewitt profiles Slobodan Milosevic. Through interviews with various diplomats and experts, Hewitt shows that Milosevic defies definition and is a calculated, brutal leader at the same time. The West characterizes Milosevic, who has some popular support and is regarded in his circles as a relaxed, rather human leader, as a totalitarian dictator. For years, western intelligence agencies have been building a profile of Milosevic. Panorama explores Milosevic's childhood, early adulthood, and his relationship with his wife, Mira Markovic; the significance of the Kosovo battle to the Serbs and how Milosevic exploits those sentiments; the war in Vukovar, Croatia and in Bosnia, including the fall of Srebrenica; and whether the West has misread the mind of Milosevic. Excerpts from a Panorama interview with Milosevic from December 13, 1993 are featured.

Participants: Milan Panic, former Prime Minister of Yugoslavia (claims that Milosevic is capable of violence); Tony Blair; Madeleine Albright; President Clinton; David Owen, European envoy to Yugoslavia, 1992–95 (states that the greatest mistake was to threaten Milosevic with air power only); Richard Holbrooke, U.S. Special Envoy to the Balkans (says that Milosevic ranges with astonishing speed from charm to brutality); Douglas Hurd, foreign secretary, 1989–95 (says that he could never read Milosevic's mind); Dame Pauline Neville-Jones, political director, Foreign Office, 1994–96 (claims that Milosevic knows what he is doing); Dr. Radmila Milentijevic, Serbian information minister, 1997–98 (claims that he is a very warm person, a charming man, who likes a drink occasionally; she finds him a strong man and would not call him a nationalist; to link him to ethnic cleansing is to ascribe him power that he never had); Vladislav Jovanovic, Yugoslav ambassador to United Nations (says that Milosevic is shy, and a very modest person); Dr. Jerrold Post, Director, Political Psychology Center, CIA, 1965–86 (claims that Milosevic has a very dangerous personality, but one which doesn't fit any classical personality disorders; and that he has an absence of scruples); Harem Suljic, Srebrenica massacre survivor; Col. Gerry Kremer, Dutch Surgeon (from March 11, 1996 Panorama); Hakija Huseinovic, Srebrenica massacre survivor; Richard Goldstone, Prosecutor, Int. Criminal Tribunal for Former Yugoslavia, 1994–96 (claims that Milosevic is guilty of war crimes); and John Scanlon, U.S. Ambassador to Yugoslavia, 1985–89.

Footage: satellite imagery of NATO planes hitting targets; Serbian TV images of Milosevic; Kosovo Albanian refugees fleeing; unrest in Kosovo in 1987 (also in 483); a Serbian TV reenactment of the Kosovo battle; Milosevic speaking in Kosovo in 1989; a shooting in Sarajevo; Srebrenica; Ratko Mladic in Srebrenica; UN soldiers held hostage by Bosnian Serbs (May 26, 1995); Serbian troops in Kosovo; and the aftermath of the Racak massacre.

Miss Sarajevo
An independent film by Bill Carter, Miss Sarajevo presents the young Sarajevans' point of view on the siege of Sarajevo. Among others, Carter interviews two sisters, high school students, a group of young kids at play, a few of his friends who play in a band while at the same time fight for the Bosnian Army, and a satirical group called the Surrealists. Each interviewee talks about how the war affected his or her life: two sisters explain how they run to avoid snipers after school; a young man, a soldier in the Bosnian Army and a musician in a local jazz band, says that Sarajevo is a super-modern concentration camp where the Sarajevans live death; a few kids talk about fetching water daily. The Sarajevo Symphony orchestra performs in the hallway of the TV building, as it has no other venue in which it could perform. Amidst this destruction and siege, the city holds a beauty pageant. Interviews are intertwined with a collage of footage depicting the shelling and destruction of Sarajevo (TVBiH archival footage is used). The film also features two montages to U2 songs.

Personnel are safe, morale is high. Third Army units took down seven enemy airplanes, one helicopter, one non-pilot aircraft, and 27 cruise missiles. There is complete control of the territory, many civilians were arrested because they were undermining the state. There will be many victims, regardless of which enemy we fight. (TRANSLATE!!!)

- (02:19.55) Report on Pristina Corps Commander, General Major Vladimir Lazarevic touring his units on the border.

Some Albanians returned because they found out that NATO bombs fall on the outskirts, where mostly Albanians live, and they saw that NATO had been giving them false promises. (translate)

- London: a diplomatic solution must be found. Diplomatic initiatives have already been undertaken in London, a political solution may be found in the near future.
- The Daily Telegraph: Milosevic and Rugova talks in Belgrade are impossible to ignore, which is what London and Washington would like to do. The talks are very advantageous to Yugoslavia. The Independent: despite a large-scale propaganda campaign and NATO governments' manipulations there is no hiding the fact that the NATO aggression is a terrible mistake. The London Times writes it was a bad day for NATO, and a good one for Milosevic: three American soldiers were captured and he met with Rugova. The only thing Americans can do is lie, stating the soldiers were captured in Macedonia. Milosevic and Rugova's agreement to turn to the political process poses problems for the US. China warned that international relations must not be tainted by a new type of interventionism. A Chinese daily reminds the reading public that the Chinese president stated that one of the five principles of peaceful coexistence is not meddling in key affairs of a certain country.
- Bonn: former German Chancellor Helmut Schmidt criticized Germany and other European Union countries for letting Americans use them for their interests. Germany in particular should carry greater responsibility, as it helped along the breakup of former Yugoslavia. A lawsuit is being brought forward against German Chancellor Schroeder because the German government went against its own constitution by participating in the aggression against Yugoslavia.
- Tel Aviv: Ariel Sharon, Israeli foreign minister, strongly criticizes the NATO aggression against Yugoslavia: the same thing could happen to Israel, since certain areas where Palestinians live can easily be compared to Kosovo (cited).
- Local French politician denounces NATO action.

NATO unit commanders and their spokespeople ask for mercy for the three soldiers whose existence was confirmed by NATO only after close examination of footage by Serbian television.
- At their press conference in Brussels today, the leaders of the criminal NATO alliance have mostly focused on denying charges brought up by the Washington Post that terrorists in Kosovo are close to being destroyed, that they've been broken up, and that they are not what they seemed to be. This press conference was a propaganda session - the false humanitarian intention for the action was again stressed.
- An expert from the Center for Strategic International Relations based in Washington DC states he is against the violence waged by the U.S. government against Yugoslavia, the aggression is a violation of the U.S. Charter, as well as a violation of human rights (cited).

Regular Americans are hard-pressed to find a reason for aggression, and even the pro-government publications such as The Washington Post, and the New York Times have turned against the government policy after the capture of American soldiers. The Italian journal uncovered a series of lies, mostly the "humanitarian catastrophe".

02:44.15
- Henry Kissinger contested Bill Clinton's arguments for the aggression against Yugoslavia, stating the Kosmet territory is a national Serbian shrine, and that complete the nation has completely unified around Slobodan Milosevic's policy. Kissinger states WW1 did not break out because of Serbs, but because outside powers meddled in small countries, and that WW2 did not break out in the Balkans to begin with. The terrorist KLA's goal has always been secession. Kissinger asked Clinton to redefine his Balkan policy (cited).
- Chicago: The Serbian Orthodox Church in the U.S. has sued Bill Clinton for destroying monasteries and churches in Serbia and Kosovo.

Shop windows shattered in the explosions.
- Report from the Belgrade Birthing Hospital: babies slept peacefully until 1 a.m., but due to the murderers' attack they now have to be moved into the basement shelter.

No one could believe this would happen. Vlajko Stoiljkovic, Minister of the Interior, interviewed: Hitler's Nazis bombed Belgrade in April, 1941. In April 1999, Clinton's neo-Nazis are bombing Belgrade once more. They are harming themselves and the entire civilized world. The building they destroyed was an architectural beauty of the Balkans. This is a work of monsters and criminals. We are unified, and our descendants will build even nicer buildings than the ones the neo-Nazis are trying to destroy. Sergei Baburin, Russian Duma vice president interviewed about bombing: we saw the wounded civilians at the Medical Military Academy just a while ago tonight, and we can see the appearance of a new type of cannibal in Europe. Russia has not remained impassive, help to Serbia is unavoidable (in Russian, VO). Daniel Schiffer, French philosopher, interviewed: speechless, this is pure Fascism (in Serbian).

It was a horrible sight, and caused many Belgrade residents to ask themselves, "Is this possible?" Report on Belgrade city center bombing: 8 cruise missiles targeted Belgrade. CNN had another spectacular show during prime time. As reporters described their shock and horror, anchor-people could not hide their joy of presenting a good show. During Belgrade's critical moments, they did not fail to remind people of the columns of Albanian refugees, forgetting to mention these refugees were fleeing from NATO attacks. Both CNN and SKY news plugged into Serbian Television programming at exactly 1 a.m. They did not show the report on the evacuation of babies and new mothers from the Birthing Hospital. - Russian government president Evgeny Primakov met with Yugoslav ambassador to Russia, Borislav Milosevic.

Protests in Greece are gathering more people every day. Peace concert was a success. Other humanitarian concerts still have to take place.

03:17.19

Rabbi Tzabik Danon (sp.), former head Rabbi for Yugoslavia, appeals to all Jewish organizations and Jews throughout the world to help stop the damaging effects of NATO bombs and lies (cited). Rabbi Danon: I cannot keep silent when Serbs are being attacked for the third time, especially when all they have done is to defend their centuries-old holy land, Kosovo, for which I have said time and again it represents their Jerusalem. NATO manufactures lies about the freedom-loving and brave Serbian people (cited).
Report on foreign media coverage:
- The National Spanish Press Agency reports: two guided missiles hit the governmental buildings close to a medical center in the very downtown of Belgrade.
- Le Figaro: the NATO aggression is a mistake. The aggression is what caused the Albanian exodus. Clinton will not admit defeat, and although he barely ever sleeps, he is still pretending to be decisive.
- Germany: the number of people opposed to NATO aggression increased after the public saw footage of Belgrade in flames.
- Osservatore Romano: the peace proposition offered by the Catholic Church was denied. For the first time ever, a Pope stood up for defense of the Orthodox Church. President of the Austrian Democratic Party, Heinz Fischer, demanded immediate stop to NATO air strikes against Yugoslavia, a peaceful solution based on UN principles must be found.
- The Indian Express (India): critique of criminal NATO aggression, stating the U.S. has made a mistake. U.S. action should worry both India and the entire world.
03:21.50
- The servile and subjugated government in Skopje finally acknowledged that the wave of refugees arriving to Macedonia is a consequence of NATO air strikes. Even the pro-government publication Nova Makedonija published on its front page a confession of an Albanian refugee who was advised, he said, by the KLA terrorists to leave Kosovo and go to Macedonia, where he could easily get a visa for European countries. A deputy of the Macedonian Prime Minister stated to Western journalists that their countries are at fault for the catastrophe going on in Macedonia and throughout the Balkans. Take in at least one refugee, we are not getting the help your countries had promised us.
03:22.50

- Report from Skopje: Macedonian and Greek Defense Ministers meet. Greece cannot take part in a military campaign against its neighbors. The Kosmet crisis can only be solved through political dialogue.
- The Guardian has run one of the strongest criticisms of Tony Blair's policy in its Saturday supplement. The Guardian commentator: what is wrong with Blair? Is he in love with Clinton? If Clinton wanted to test the atomic bomb in Blair's backyard while his wife and children were barbecuing, Blair would say, Yes, Billy! We are bombing Yugoslavia, a glorious, whole, and independent Yugoslavia, which has always been congratulated by the West for its "no" to Stalin. It is a country which fought against the Nazis, and was never anyone's puppet. The Guardian goes on to say, "perhaps this is exactly what we cannot stand, a country that is showing to others that it can stand on its own. The Serbs have shown us the brown-nosing potential of our potentially great country - Great Britain, and we do not like it. The American General Wesley Clark has many medals, I wonder, where has he earned them? Was it in Vietnam? I wonder what he has done to earn them, and what crimes against women and children he took part in. America has so much blood on its hands that it's a miracle it can still hold on to its weapons. Serbs are not doing anything against the Kosmet Albanians that various Latin American countries have not done to their people. But that is a different matter, because these countries are in the American backyard. Could Catholic NATO country members attack Great Britain for its bad treatment of North Irish Catholics? Whatever is going on in Yugoslavia, if anyone is killing anyone, is a situation caused by the West. Blair says what is being done is right, because everything now is just like WW2. And it is, except that now we have joined our Luftwaffe colleagues and become Fascists ourselves," the Guardian commentator said.
03:25.55
- Today too, there were protests against the criminal NATO aggression on our country around the world:

- Russian Ministry of Defense representative, Leony Ivashev, states: NATO aggression against Yugoslavia was planned ahead in order to disrupt peaceful resolution; there was a conspiracy by NATO to start military conflict, to move in NATO ground troops; Russian Ministry of Defense is increasing its forces; NATO aggressors are unprecedented in their inhumanity; there have been 17 civilian targets so far, one of the most cruel the Birthing Hospital in Belgrade; even cultural monuments protected by the Geneva Convention are not spared (cited). Stressing that NATO strategists are now nervous because they are not getting the results they wanted, he pointed out they are also hiding their losses.

Director of the Clinical Center of Serbia states morale is high.
- Serbian Radical Party: The terrorist armada is trying to win a victory over the unconquerable Serbian people. Various insults of NATO.
- Yugoslav United Left: report from press conference, the terrorist nature of NATO's attack is a criminal act against peace and humanity. Taking down the Police Building is a crime, because the Police is fighting against terrorists. Closeness of the hospital did not matter to NATO, and CNN did not inform their viewers of the danger the hospital was put in. Who are the main perpetrators of crimes in Yugoslavia? Those wretches who solve their existential questions by doing the dirty work and even crimes, if needed. They are the Ramirezes, Sanchezes - the people who are among the poorest in America and throughout the NATO countries. These poor people have to die for the interests of international capitalists. (Report from press conference really a political commentary. Footage of Mira Markovic at conference).

(TRANSLATE) 03:59.00 - Footage from anti-NATO protests in: Banja Luka - Bosnia and Herzegovina, Vlasenica. - There is almost no town in our country where our people are not showing their dignity through song.

Report on a shooting down of a cruise missile in Belgrade: Yugoslav anti-aircraft defense's shoulder-launched, technologically inferior and considerably cheaper rocket destroys a deadly, US-made Tomahawk cruise missile guided by four satellites. Footage of the missile debris included.
- Report from Backa Palanka: a rocket damages a bridge and power lines.
- Report from Banja Luka, Bosnia and Herzegovina: President of the Bosnian and Herzegovinian Collective Presidency, Zivko Radisic, addresses a letter to UN Secretary General, Kofi Annan, and to head of OSCE in Bosnia, Carlos Westendorp. Radisic: political stability in BiH is worsening-war threatens to spread there; despite warnings that Bosnia and Herzegovina and the peacekeeping forces stationed there should not be used for attacks on a neighboring, sovereign country; it is clear that SFOR forces are being increasingly used in aggression on Yugoslavia. NATO and SFOR should stick to their original mandate - to keep and to preserve peace in Bosnia and Herzegovina (cited).
- (04:24:38) Republika Srpska's Minister of Defense, Manojlo Milovanovic: declares SFOR's explanation regarding yesterday's mining of the Belgrade-Bar railway trifling. According to SFOR, the railway was mined to prevent Yugoslav Army troop transfers from Serbia into Montenegro. SFOR, alongside NATO, is involved in the aggression on the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia. As the railway was mined, a railway guard was shot in the back.
- (04:25:13) An Athens daily: bodies of the 19 soldiers, first American casualties, secretly transported from Macedonia to Salonika, Greece, from where they will be taken home in metal coffins. Footage of American troops in the field accompanies the narrative.
- (04:26:27) Macedonia's custom officials confirm that19 coffins, which contain the American soldiers' bodies, left the country and are on the way to Greece. Custom officials inspected the coffins at a border crossing, as required by regulations, and saw the American soldiers' bodies. Several American officers accompanied the transport. No other details could be provided.
- Report on anti-NATO sentiments in the United States: Among those admirable and honest people in the world who oppose NATO-American aggression on Serbia, the most prominent are American Jews, members of a Holocaust survivors' organization. John Rantz, president of the Buchenwald survivors' club (VO translation): American bombing of Belgrade is shameful; Americans are making the same mistake that was made in Vietnam; hopes this mistake will not be of the same magnitude and the bombing will be stopped; Jewish community is working on persuading the American government to cease the bombing immediately and to resume negotiations. Asked if the U.S. public receives objective information about events in Yugoslavia, Rantz replied the public is not informed objectively or adequately. The press is biased, under influence of powerful and big corporations, which want to prevent Serbs from defending their rights in Kosovo. This is why the public is pitted against the Serbs, who are represented as criminals who kill civilians in Kosovo. Rantz and other well-informed Americans do not subscribe to this point of view. Although up to 50 percent of Americans are against the bombing, they are not well organized. Mr Clinton is making a huge mistake by bombing Serbia. (all cited).
- (04:28:46) Report on NATO press conference: NATO's spokesperson, Jamie Shea, repeats the allies' ultimatum - a permanent peaceful solution can be achieved through the Rambouillet agreement, but only after the refugee flow is stopped and once they are able to return home. Shea avoids admitting that the barbarian aggression on our country is causing the refugee crisis and that many Albanians, Serbs, and other ethnic communities seek safe haven in Serbia and other parts of Yugoslavia, not just in Macedonia and Albania. Shea admits the Serbian civilians suffer because of the destruction of bridges. Another lie about Ibrahim Rugova launched in Brussels: Shea says Rugova is under house arrest, that his family is allowed to use the first floor of their house only, and that they have to contact the police several times a day. Shea's greatest lie: RTS' picture of Milosevic-Rugova meeting is supposedly two years old, even though it's clear, based on all available facts, the meeting has taken place (all cited).

ON FOREIGN MEDIA COVERAGE:
- (04:30:10 - BEGINNING CUT OFF) The Washington Post: article on Serbian readiness to fight in defense of their country.
- (04:30:44) Russian radio: on brutal bombing on Belgrade; the aggressor is unrestrained - in yesterday's savage attack newly born babies nearly die. Russian foreign ministry said this brutal war, including the savage bombing of the Yugoslav cities, cynical cover-ups of the criminal actions, and pleas that all this is done in the name of preventing the humanitarian catastrophe, is being waged to destroy the Yugoslav people. Russia still hopeful negotiations will resume and peaceful resolution of the crisis will be achieved. Russian Army leadership says it is ready to obey any order Yeltsin might issue.
- Report from Saint Petersburg. Genady Zheleznov, president of Russian Duma: As NATO's aggression violates all international agreements regarding Yugoslavia, Russia has every reason to boycott arms embargo; criticizes the UN and its pro-American stand; cannot understand Kofi Annan's silence when many UN member-countries are calling for the General Assembly to meet and discuss Yugoslavia’s situation. Zheleznov on foreign troops' involvement in Yugoslavia: Yugoslav Army will be even more efficient than the anti-aircraft defense units. (cited)
- (04:33:04) Sergei Baburin, Deputy president of Duma, states in Budapest: NATO member countries defeated in their aggression on Yugoslavia; they miscalculated, by projecting Yugoslavia was going to capitulate under Western threats; the opposite happened - Yugoslav society has never been more consolidated; discusses potential alliance between Russia, Byelorussia and Yugoslavia.
- (04:33:48) Former U.S. Attorney General, Ramsey Clark: speaks at an anti-NATO panel discussion in New York; receives ovation; analyzes U.S. policy of destruction in detail. Calls on Americans to support the Serbs and Yugoslavia; the bombing must be stopped.
- Chinese media: report on the last night's criminal bombing of Belgrade as well as destruction of another bridge in Novi Sad. Chinese daily: the mercifulness and barbarism of the aggressor, which began to target downtown Belgrade, reflects the West's despair, created by its inability to force the Serbs to accept their solution for Yugoslavia. The results of the aggression are contrary to the aggressor's initial goal. Technologically advanced weaponry is not able to break the Yugoslavs' heroism and motivation to fight (all cited).
- Opinions that pervade various international media: Escalation of violence and increased bombing of residential sites in Belgrade, Novi Sad, and Cacak prove that the aggressor is determined to fight a merciless was against a sovereign country. An especially cynical claim: war led under the excuse of preventing a humanitarian catastrophe, which is really a product of aggression on Yugoslavia. Many foreign correspondents from Belgrade increasingly report on Serbian unity. Anti-war mood in Europe is prevalent. Western alliance is slowly breaking up.
- (04:36:53) From the Washington Post and the New York Times: plans to place 6,000 to 8,000 aggressor's troops in Albania to supposedly provide relief. There is some talk 8,000 soldiers will be added to NATO troops in Macedonia. The Washington Post: Wesley Clark, the criminal, gave instructions for placing Apache helicopters for relief in new military base in Albania; Pentagon agreed, while other allies are still considering the proposed idea. US-Russian relations the worst since the Cold War. Russia's critique of the American and NATO action becomes harsher from day to day. Russia and its government are glutted with anti-American attitudes. Russia condemns America for genocide against Yugoslavia, for its support of terrorism and separatism in Kosmet and for attempts to dictate its policy to the whole world; Americans use the Balkans for trying out new weapons. (all cited).
- Pentagon spokesperson, Ken Bacon: lies grossly, says NATO shoots at military targets only (cited).
- American association of international law practitioners states NATO should have not intervened in Yugoslavia's affairs without the UN Security Council's approval. Articles 52 and 53 of the UN Charter emphasize that regional conflicts must be solved through peaceful means and the that UN needs to approve potential use of force.
- (04:39:25) A Budapest daily Magyar Hirlap: western alliance has no clear idea what it wants to accomplish with its unprecedented bombing of a sovereign country - is its aim to weaken the Yugoslav army or to force Belgrade to sign the Rambouillet agreement? Neither of the two tasks have been achieved. Instead of preventing the supposed humanitarian catastrophe, the bombing augments it even further (all cited).
- (04:39:55) Sophia media: media campaign against Yugoslavia in Goebbels' style. British prime minister and minister of defense try to persuade the international public, using the international media, especially CNN, that a sovereign state has no right to resolve disputes according to its laws and regulations within its territory. Yugoslavia offered autonomy to Kosovar Albanians and other ethnic minorities, but the proposal did not suit the Albanians. The international public received no information on this because that was not in the interest of the world's powerful players. Bulgarian envoy concerned: Albanian drug dealers are hailed as heroes and are fully supported by Western powers.
- Israeli daily: NATO bombing senseless. Its results are opposite than originally intended by the criminal NATO. No Serb is ready to give up Kosovo-Metohija, the cradle of the Serbian nation and statehood.
- Sub-Saharan Africa: express disappointment with Kofi Annan's silence with regards to NATO's aggression against sovereign and federal Yugoslavia.
- (04:41:32) Report on 50 years since the founding of NATO: Aggression on Yugoslavia has put an end to the meaning of NATO's existence. Archival footage shown. A celebration of the shameful anniversary was to take place in Brussels, but was cancelled because the aggressor, as it was indicated, had more important matters to consider - a 12-day merciless war against Yugoslavia, destruction of civilian sites, and killing of innocent civilians.

Serbian radicals are convinced that, much like his Nazi idol, Adolf Hitler, Bill Clinton will pay a high price for his bloody Balkan odyssey.

This would make Kosovo ethnically clean and put it under Washington's complete control (all cited).

Beta TC: 05:46:20-06:15:29 05:46.40 - Report from Aleksinac: NATO criminals destroyed tens of family homes and residential buildings while bombing the city center of Aleksinac. Practically all buildings were damaged. Footage proves that NATO is the aggressor, killer, and that it targets women and children. President of the Serbian Government, Mirko Marjanovic, states: they are killing women and children in the heart of Serbia; these crimes are greater than those of the fascists who bombed Belgrade on April 6th, 1941; Blair, Clinton, Chirac, and Albright will be judged just like the fascist were at the Nuremberg Trial; the Serbian government will provide aid to those who have suffered most; we will take care of our people; nothing will stop us in our defense of the country and its independence; we are all unified around our president Slobodan Milosevic. Local officials reported to the President of the Serbian government: 30 civilians were pulled from the rubble, and seven were killed. Foreign journalist could see for themselves that there are no military objects in the vicinity, and that civilians were targeted. Mirko Marjanovic: this is genocide. Aleksinac residents will gather as soon as their Golgotha is over and defend their fatherland. - Report from Aleksinac: footage of rubble. There are many victims and bodies still buried in the rubble. Killers who sow death on civilians under the cover of night are to blame. - Reuters reported from Brussels today that NATO admitted to missing a target and striking a populated area. Seven people died. The error occurred either due to a technical error or due to anti-aircraft defense. NATO criminals, killers and their spokespeople are confused: first they say it was a technical error, then the anti-aircraft defense. We are really dealing with bombing of city centers and cowardly killing of civilian populace under the cover of darkness. 05:52.14 Report on foreign media coverage of NATO striking Aleksinac: - Reuters: the center of Aleksinac shows things opposite to what NATO stated happened. Associated Press: the barbarian mission advocated as a humanitarian intervention by the Washingtonian strategist with his European lawyers and hangers-on resulted in Aleksinac alone with seven dead residents and about thirty injured ones. Radio France (reporting on Le Figaro reporter's report from Aleksinac):civilian losses are tremendous, there are dead children (footage of destruction). 05:53.40 - Report from Novi Sad: (footage of explosion) strikes against civilian targets continued last night. Oil refinery was struck, many components were destroyed. This is monstrous behavior. The components of the refinery were built by Texaco. Firefighters contained the fire. In last night's attack, the only remaining bridge over the Danube at Novi Sad was destroyed. Railroad and automobiles cannot cross the bridge. - Report from Bogojevo: the criminal armada attempted to destroy bridges over the Danube near Bogojevo. Deadly shrapnel rained on surrounding civilian homes, and it was only by pure chance that no inhabitants were hurt. Footage of bridges destroyed in Novi Sad, Raska, Zubin Potok, Backa Palanka. - Report from Lozna: bridge over the Iber river at Lozna was destroyed. All homes and elementary school damaged. Bridge which served civilian purposes only, situated in Brbenik village over the Raska river, was destroyed. Windows and roof tiles were shattered. - Report from Kraljevo: neo-Nazi armada attacked the civilian area of Kraljevo. There are no human losses, but homes were damaged. Part of the Kraljevo-Kragujevac railroad track was damaged. Telegraph and phone lines were down. - Report from Pancevo: early this morning Pancevo was the aggressor's target for the fifth time. Five missiles fell into fields, while damage was done to vacationers' and villagers' homes. 05:58.43 - Surdulica: material damage was done during NATO's grenade attack. - Vranje: NATO aggressor again attacked with grenades. Five missiles fell on the city. There was damage to the bakery, windows of the Vranje hospital, banks and shop windows shattered. - Prizren: NATO missiles targeted army barrack, as well as a suburb of Prizren where several family homes were razed to the ground, especially homes of the Taci family (!!!!!!). Water pipe system was damaged and some parts of the city have no drinking water. Windows and facades on residential buildings shattered. This was one of the fiercest NATO attacks in the past few days. (TRANSLATE) - Report from Pristina: our crew obtained footage of the aggressor's action. Their airplanes threw bait bombs to fool the anti-aircraft defense, but the defense did not buy it. About 12:20 a.m. our anti-aircraft defense struck one of the enemy airplanes which continued to fly toward Albania. General Colonel Nebojsa Pavkovic and General Major Vladimir Lazarevic toured the federal border area which was attacked by an infamous terrorist gang from Jablanica intending to merge with the terrorists in Albania several days ago. The generals could see for themselves the gang was destroyed, that Jablanica villages had been turned into terrorist bases, that the situation in the area was now peaceful, and movement unrestricted. We ourselves climbed the hill from which you can see all of Metohija. The terrorists left proof of their stay here: bunkers, trenches, an anti-tank mine. The generals could see the border was peaceful and stable. Our anti-aircraft defense is extremely effective – it hit one enemy plane last night, while it prevented many missiles from hitting the ground. Unit commanders reported that the force was ready to defend the federal border. 06:02.27 - Ibro Vajit, the Regional Secretary for Ethnic Minorities' Human Rights, gave a statement in Pristina: the criminal NATO bombing caused a part of the Albanian population to flee the Kosovo and Metohija area. All residents should return to their homes. I am a Gora villager and am proud to say that we have organized ourselves extremely well to defend the country's integrity and sovereignty and have done all in our power to go on with our lives as normally as possible. - There are no more Albanian columns seeking refuge from the frenzied Death Alliance bombing at the "Vrbnica" Yugoslav-Albanian and "Djeneral Jankovic" Yugoslav-Macedonian border crossings. The meeting between President Slobodan Milosevic and Ibrahim Rugova contributed to the Albanians' return to their homes. The Albanians also opted to return to their homes after being called to do so by Serbian and Yugoslav state officials. One of the long lines of cars returning to Pristina was filmed by both the Pristina Television station crew, as well as those of aggressor countries. - A railroad guard was killed in Štrpci by SFOR soldiers during the mining operation of the Belgrade-Bar railroad. - Bijeljina: footage of anti-NATO protest. - The Russian Foreign Ministry hailed the cease-fire in Kosmet as the first step toward a peaceful solution to the problems in the south Serbian province. NATO must now completely stop the strikes against Yugoslavia. President Yeltsin was informed of the situation. Russian TV stopped regular programming to report on the recent development. Evgeny Primakov and Al Gore had a telephone conversation about the situation. - Protests against the NATO action are being held around the world: a protest march was held in Athens, protests in Austria and Australia. - Report from Sydney, Australia: anti-NATO protest. Serbs were joined by Australian citizens who also wanted to protest the bias in Australian media coverage. - Report from Vienna, Austria: anti-NATO protest. About ten thousand people gathered. 06:07.45 - One of the most famous contemporary Hungarian writers, George Konrad, condemned the West for hypocrisy - as the West itself favors integration, it promotes disintegration in the Balkans. The West supports radical Albanian separatists. Each country has a right to defend itself. NATO member countries should stop air strikes if they themselves want to avoid being a part of the genocide, the famous Hungarian writer, who is of Jewish origin, added. - French author Patrik Besson addressed the Serbian nation: my dear Serbian friends, I have seen you compare Bill Clinton to Hitler, which is not being nice - to Hitler. I know they have much in common: to conquer the world using weapons, to exploit poor and annex rich countries, and to exterminate nations. Hitler, just like Clinton, bombed civilians, but then sent in ground troops, unlike Clinton. Brothers and sisters, I will soon come to your city which I love more than life itself. I will either die or win with you. 06:10.43 - Report from Paris, France: French radio reports that the world is surprised at he fact that the great world powers are picking on and attacking such a small country. "It is unbelievable to see how well Yugoslavia is doing in such difficult circumstances," the reporter was full of admiration. The Yugoslav army is organized extremely well. In Kosovo, the army had completely defeated NATO. French radio stresses that the capture of three American soldiers could not be a greater strike to the Americans. Americans are paying the price of their propaganda in the U.S. when they say their soldiers are not threatened. Yugoslav propaganda is more crafty, however, as they showed the footage of American soldiers to the American media, and now do not mention it anymore, as if it happened every day. Amateurs have defeated professionals, poor defeated rich, improvisers the specialists – Balkan's revenge over an almighty civilization. Albanians are only competing in their cynicism and cruelty and are pawns in the selfish interests of Washington, masked under humanitarian propaganda. 06:14.10 - Even the NATO killers' bosses realize they have lost the media war. The criminals have now started to wage a truly barbarian campaign against the Serbian television, destroying our transmitters throughout the country. - Political commentary on NATO entering Serbian media space. The criminals are now telling the same people they have been killing for 14 years that they are wise and good. (TRANSLATE) - The Pristina Corps Information Service Headquarters reports: all units are acting upon the decision of the government. There is freedom of movement. Situation is peaceful.

- Last night, there were explosions in Northern Macedonia in the Jablanica Mountain range, as well as in the Šar Mountain range. This is probably due to falling NATO airplanes after hits by Yugoslav army. Macedonian citizens are frightened by these explosions. Near Kumanovo, Macedonian citizens demolished a NATO vehicle. An Albanian was killed by Macedonian forces. He was a link in the arms and drug trafficking chain.
06:29.45
- The Macedonian Prime Minister stated in Skopje that everyone from the West betrayed Macedonia, which is now left on its own to solve the refugee problem. The Western media, like CNN, had accused Macedonia of not taking care of the refugees. The world is more worried about the refugees than the 2 million Macedonians. Macedonian economy has suffered tremendously because of the war waged by the West. The prime minister also stated that explosions are common throughout Macedonia, as well as grenades.
- Genady Seleznov, Russian Duma president (in Russian, Serbian interpreting): Russia is decisive to stop the air strikes. We can only do it with your help, you have to stay firm as rocks, and have much patriotic spirit. The Russian nation is with you with its heart and soul. This is the first time such a powerful alliance of 19 countries attacked such a small independent country, and still cannot do anything to harm it.
- Report from Moscow: Igor Ivanov, Russian Foreign Minister, stated in press conference: NATO's goal is clear - to separate Kosovo from Serbia. Igor Baburin and Roman Popkovic are lobbying to send Russian weapon aid to Yugoslavia. Georgy Memedov will lead the Russian delegation at the G-8 meeting.
- Byelorussian president, Alexander Lukashenko, stated Yugoslavia is fighting a just fight. NATO's action might lead to WW3. The Western alliance wants to impose a new world order.
Report on foreign media coverage:
- Beijing: The Chinese government: NATO must immediately stop air strikes against Yugoslavia. NATO is increasing attacks to include civilian targets. The aggression is now condemned throughout international community. The aggression is the reason for all the refugees in Kosmet. China is to take appropriate actions.
- Leading Chinese daily: demand that NATO immediately stop air strikes. Humanitarian catastrophe was caused by NATO.
- New York: President of the UN General Assembly stated peace was not far. Diplomatic initiatives to solve the situation in Kosovo will soon begin.
- Israeli foreign minister stated everything should be done to stop the suffering, caused by criminal NATO bombing, of innocent civilians in Yugoslavia. Albanians want to separate Kosovo from Yugoslavia. This would make Kosovo a center for Islamic terrorism which would then spread to the rest of Europe.
06:37.00
- Bonn, Germany: Leftist and moderate politicians in Germany keep protesting against NATO aggression on Yugoslavia. The Green party founder asked Joschka Fischer to resign. A chief of the Conservative Coalition also spoke out against the aggression. The Social-Democrat Hamburg mayor also joined him.
- British government highly cynical: money for help to Albanian refugees is being collected. The government first used tax money to finance weapons and bombs which caused suffering to the people, and is now collecting money to ease the suffering caused by their bombs.
- Report from London: American administration and British administration infighting. Blair went against his own government and decided to go alongside the White House policy. Diplomatic initiatives are being undertaken. British media report that there are more and more civilian targets that are being hit, and that there are civilian losses. The London Times thinks sending troops by helicopters to Kosovo would be direct involvement in the Kosovo crisis.
- Report from Washington, D.C.: The U.S. propaganda newspapers, such as The New York Times, although they mostly cover up American massacres caused by the aggression, reported on several blatant NATO lies. Here are a few: although NATO finally obtained satellite pictures proving Serbian forces were ethnically cleansing Kosovo, no one has seen those pictures so far. The reporter commented: even NATO officials confessed none of the photos are proof that there are indeed concentration camps and mass graves in Kosovo. NATO never gave proof for the huge number of lies. Pristina was really destroyed by NATO air strikes, and its residents fled from the bombs. The New York Times also reported on Rugova's meeting with Russian officials, which goes against American administration's claim that Rugova is under house arrest. The Goebbels-like people of the American propaganda are making more and more mistakes.
06:42.34
- Le Monde, France: demanded that the French president explain to the nation whose war this really is, American, French, or German. The aggression has been overtaken by General Wesley Clark, whose dream is to march into Belgrade with his tanks. The escalation of the aggression has reminded Europeans of WW2, when Hitler, like Clinton, wanted to create a new world order. Le Figaro: a French state councilor warns the war against Yugoslavia went against all legal norms, including the French constitution, the Atlantic Pact, and the UN Charter. The French despise their politicians – they were led from peace into war, and accounts will have to be settled.
- For the first time since the beginning of the aggression, leading Western news agencies are focusing on civilian victims and destruction of civilian targets. The fact that NATO criminals are killing innocent civilians cannot be suppressed in the West. Reuters and Associated Press covered news of the towns where civilians became innocent victims. However, NATO criminals are trying to claim the killing of civilians and destruction of their homes as military success. They are lying that only military targets are being hit. Media in their countries are accusing them of bombing not to prevent humanitarian catastrophe, but to save NATO's face. Albanian refugees are left to terrorist gangs and war profiteers. Albanian police is cruel to the refugees. The media is wondering what Kofi Annan and the UN is doing. The UN is not holding any conferences, or attempting to stop the aggression against Yugoslavia.
06:47.10
- Serbian Radical Party: the aggressor is targeting hospitals, schools, and historical monuments in our country. The air strikes clumsily excused by humanitarian catastrophe represent insanity of American administration. It is unbelievable not one humanitarian organization spoke out after 13 days of bombing and civilian losses in our country. This is proof such organizations, are really spies for the American administration, and that they only provide Albanian terrorists with food. Yugoslav army will be able to defend the country.
- Serbian Renewal Movement: anti-NATO statement. NATO is targeting civilian targets. Vuk Draskovic: Albanians were manipulated during the aggression and should return to their country. Serbs are a noble people and have never harmed civilians during any of their wars (cited). NATO is mistaken if they think they can destroy the Yugoslav army (direct).

841 Serbian Television April 7, 1999 Beta TC: 06:49:28-07:29:09 06:49.50 -Belgrade: Interview with Genady Seleznev, Russian Duma President (in Russian, VO): I would like for the American politicians to come here and see for themselves the results of their political decisions. Civilian targets: bridges, factories, the town of Aleksinac, are being hit. Thanks to NATO, thousands of people are fleeing Kosmet, and NATO is to blame. All neighboring countries have to suffer the tremendous costs of taking care of the refugees. The Russians have always been against a polarized world. NATO has no purpose if there is no Warsaw Pact. Yugoslavia is outside NATO's sphere, and is still undergoing an aggression. Now, Europeans have taken on the role of the sacrificial lamb. If NATO comes in, not one its soldiers will come out alive. All European mothers and fathers of NATO soldiers should stand up to protect their children from being killed here. Interviewer: Yugoslavia is expecting the Russians, who are a brotherly, just, Slavic, and orthodox nation to raise their voices. Selezhnov: Russia's voice can be heard. Not just in Yugoslavia, but throughout the world. Russia is forever mentioning the unjust war that is being waged against Yugoslavia. We will bring this matter up with the UN, and fight for the cease of the aggression as soon as possible. Interviewer: At the time the Soviet Union and Yugoslavia were being torn apart, people said that Yugoslavia was just a dress rehearsal for the Soviet Union. Is this true now? Selezhnov: If this happens, we will defend ourselves in such a way that they will remember for centuries. This war will unite our people - the people who used to be part of the Soviet Union. Gunpowder has to stay dry, and we can't trust any peace initiatives. Interviewer: These are Serbian television cameras, do you have a message for our viewers? Selezhnov: I am amazed at your bravery. We Russians are inspired by the growth of your patriotism. Your whole nation is unified to win this war. You have to be strong and not panic. Russia will never give up on its Serbian brothers. Even though we have internal problems, we spend much time on discussing Yugoslavia. We will have a better life, especially if we start realizing the idea of a commonwealth of all Slavic countries. 06:56.22 - Report from Pristina: NATO criminals struck the post office and social security building in the very center of Pristina last night (footage of post office in flames). Almost an entire neighborhood was destroyed. The oldest buildings in the city were razed to the ground. In two streets, more than a hundred family homes and businesses were destroyed. Nine victims were dug from the rubble. It is certain 16 are still buried. Last night, a Turkish family died in its sleep due to the flames.

Nightline: Kosovo: Searching for Reconciliation
This Nightline features two reports from Kosovo which explore the difficulty of rebuilding civil life and Serb and Kosovar Albanian coexistence there, after years of Serbian oppression, their most recent assault on the ethnic Albanians and NATO's air-strikes against the Serbs. Since the second week of June, 1999, when the Kosovar Albanians returned to their homes, there have been many indcidents of revenge against the local Serbs and Romas (Gypsies). - Gillian Findlay reports on ethnic Albanians taking revenge against the Serbs and how this affects Kosovo's multiethnic firemen brigade. Two ethnic Albanians, Serb firemen, British firemen, and a British peacekeeping officer, comment on incidents of revenge. Footage of Kosovo buildings set on fire, two British firemen at work, and ravaged homes featured. - Dave Marash reports on Father Sava, Serbian Orthodox monk who made his Kosovo monastery, Visoki Decani, a safe haven for both Serb and Albanian refugees. In an interview with Marash, Father Sava expresses fears that revenge will destroy Kosovo, talks about protecting Serb refugees from the neighboring villages, helping Albanians with food and medicine, and sheltering Kosovo Gypsies to protect them from Kosovar Albanian revenge. Father Sava also discusses destruction of the Holy Trinity Monastery, outside of Suva Reka, by Kosovar Albanians. Sister Anestesija, a senior nun and a hard-line Serb nationalist, discusses destruction of Debic monastery; an imam discusses destruction of a mosque in Suva Reka. Footage of a destruction of Kosovo's towns Pec and Suva Reka and defacement of a Serbian Orthodox monastery, two large homes set ablaze by Kosovar Albanians on a hillside of Prishtina, featured. - Ted Koppel talks with Dave Marash on his views on how the Kosovo crisis can be resolved, the future of Milosevic's regime, how the Americans are viewed in Kosovo now, on an international administration of Kosovo, and on the regions future.

Journeyman Pictures: Kosovo's Clock
This feature examines the growing support for a violent Albanian struggle, in the light of the recent massacre at Drenica.
-There the Serbs massacred 41 ethnic Albanians, claiming they were searching for members of the Kosovo Liberation Army. The village was tear-gassed, the houses shelled to pieces. The survivors deny that there were any gunmen in the compound. And the village is only 500m from a Serb police base, an unlikely place to set up a guerilla camp. Now 60 refugees spend each night in the schoolhouse, as Serb choppers circle overhead. It was meant as a warning to the Albanians against armed resistance to Serb rule. In fact it's had the opposite effect, galvanising the Albanians behind a direct challenge to Serb domination.
-The scene is now set for a dangerous escalation of violence, with the Albanian Kosovo Liberation army receiving fresh arms and recruits following the massacres, and the Serbs digging in to defend their control of Kosovo a any cost. Adern Demaci, the 'Nelson Mandela of Kosovo', who spent 28 years in prison campaigning for Albanian independence, says Albanian violence is in self defence.
-Albanian students learn in their own language inside an 'Albanian' university, a rough, unfinished building. They've been running a parallel education system for years. Under international pressure Serbia has finally conceded that Albanian students can return to Pristina University and be taught in their own language. But in shifts only. That's still apartheid claims the students' leader.
-A diplomatic solution seems impossible with even the moderate Albanian leadership insisting on independence in Kosovo, an outcome that the Serbs and the international community show no sign of accepting.

Ulysses' Gaze / Το βλεμμα του Οδυσσεα
"A.", a Greek filmmaker exiled to the United States, returns to his native Ptolemas to attend a special screening of one of his extremely controversial films. But A.'s real interest lies elsewhere - the mythical reels of the very first film shot by the Manakia brothers, who, at the dawn of the age of cinema, tirelessly criss-crossed the Balkans and, without regard for national and ethnic strife, recorded the region's history and customs. Did these primitive, never developed images really exist? If so, where are they? - "Why 'A'? It's an alphabetical choice. Every filmmaker remembers the first time he looked through the viewfinder of a camera. It is a moment which is not so much the discovery of cinema, but the discovery of the world. But there comes a moment when the filmmaker begins to doubt his own capacity to see things, when he no longer knows if his gaze is right and innocent." (Theo Angelopoulos)

But there comes a moment when the filmmaker begins to doubt his own capacity to see things, when he no longer knows if his gaze is right and innocent." (Theo Angelopoulos)

Greek filmmaker Theodoros Angelopoulos is one of a dying breed: a visionary filmmaker with a masterful sense of visual and thematic composition. Unfortunately, this winner of the 1995 Grand Jury prize at Cannes (that’s the runner-up award), which stars Harvey Keitel, isn’t the best way to appreciate what he’s capable of. In the three-hour epic, a Greek filmmaker called A. (an out-of-place Keitel) returns from exile in America to find three missing film reels. The treasured reels, reportedly made by two famous Greek filmmakers during the country’s silent era, amount to A.’s Holy Grail. And his journey to find them – through the war-shattered Balkans by train, automobile and foot – is an existential odyssey. Visually, as always, the director’s work (photographed by Yorgos Arvanitis) is stunning. But this grim travelogue through a landscape of despair lacks internal power. It feels labored and portentous. – Desson Howe, The Washington Post

The Little One / Mala
Though set in 1963, the Yugoslav political drama "The Little One" is so timely it can be viewed as an allegory about the all-destructive power of a state completely controlled by The Party. Ploddingly directed, film's emotional impact is totally based on its harrowing story, focusing on the disruptive intrusions of Communist politics into personal lives. But engaging plot and stirring ideas barely overcome artistic flaws, relegating film to fest circuit and retrospectives of Eastern European cinema.

Like the award-winning "When Father Was Away on Business,""The Little One" tells of a family that broke up when the father was sent to a labor camp for alleged crimes against the state.

Another link between the two movies is Mirjana Karanovic, who played the long-suffering mother in the 1985 pic and appears here as Bozidarka, a woman who has chosen to testify against her husband rather than lose her young child Militza (the little one).

Story begins when husband Kosta is released from prison and begins searching for his child. It's been 14 years since Kosta's arrest and his aging father in-law doesn't recognize him. Bozidarka persistently tells Miliza that her father died; she won't even allow his name mentioned in the house.

Best feature of "The Little One" is its thick melodramatic plot, detailing the devastating effects of a police state on half a dozen characters. The pic highlights the different ways in which politics in socialist-communist countries impinges on and interferes with the day-to-day existence of ordinary people.

Film forcefully documents the pervasive fear and paranoia felt in a state-controlled country, and shows how average people lose their humanity, dignity and self-respect as a direct result of the Party's abusive power and excessive control.

However, the film lacks a consistent point of view and has no visual style. Lenser Radoslav Pavolivic, who also scripted, seems to be more concerned with straightforward story-telling than in shaping the material or creating a visually satisfying film.

Predrag Antonijevic's undistinguished direction wastes the efforts of his talented cast. As a result, even potentially powerful scenes lack the acute poignancy they could have had.

In pic's last half-hour, the melodramatics come fast and furious: daughter is raped by her mother's playboy lover, who is stabbed by daughter's thief friend, mother attempts suicide, father shoots lover–and more. The director goes from one harrowing episode to another, rushing toward the desired reunion of father and daughter, which appropriately ends his nightmarish tale.

Still, in the context of Yugoslavia's current upheaval, helmer's sense of urgency in unraveling the story, while neglecting production values, may be justified.–Emanuel Levy, Variety.
