The Chamber demands from the Federal Government to carry out all necessary measures in order to enable Slobodan Milosevic to return to his country for medical treatment; 2. The Chamber demands from the Federal Government to urgently submit appropriate guarantees to the Hague Tribunal in order to make possible Slobodan Milosevic's continued legal defense, carried out in freedom, after his successfully- concluded medical treatment; 3. The Chamber demands from the Federal Government, in order to secure the human rights of Slobodan Milosevic, to carry out all measures at its disposal for the protection of Slobodan Milosevic as a person accused by the Hague Tribunal; 4. This Declaration shall be published in the "Official Gazette of Federal Republic of Yugoslavia." ********************************************* ***************************************** Events are moving very fast. Today The Hague Tribunal ordered that Slobodan Milosevic, former President of both Yugoslavia and Serbia, undergo psychiatric examinations. This is an insult to him and to the people of Yugoslavia. Given the intelligence and sustained concentration and dignity with which Mr. Milosevic has solidly defeated an avalanche of liars, this order for psychiatric evaluation is simply absurd. Clearly the Tribunal wishes to find some basis, any basis, to forbid Slobodan Milosevic the basic human right to conduct his own defense. Apparently they hope that some psychiatrist will declare Mr. Milosevic unfit to represent himself. Hague official Florence Hartmann suggested yesterday that Mr. Milosevic could be moved to some outside facility while they continue these proceedings in his absence. The ICDSM needs to send a delegation including our attorney, Tiphaine Dickson, as soon as possible to The Hague. That delegation will reach the international media and directly interact with The Tribunal. In order to send that delegation *we need your help.* If you were thinking of making a donation, now is the time! Now, when The Tribunal is denying Mr. Milosevic proper health care in order to pressure him to appoint substitute counsel we need to get our delegation to The Hague. For we represent the other side. We actually believe Slobodan Milosevic is innocent. The charges against him and the Serbian people are based on a campaign of lies. We have the facts. Milosevic has all the facts and that is why they want so desperately to replace him. We believe Slobodan Milosevic is 100% right not to appoint a lawyer to represent him before the Tribunal. *Not even a lawyer who claims to support him.* Why? Because it is Mr. Milosevic who led Serbia and Yugoslavia during the period under discussion. Because no lawyer on earth can - or will dare - to stand up to this NATO-controlled Tribunal as Mr. Milosevic has done, to tell the truth without fear of consequence or career. There is no lawyer who can demonstrate by his very demeanor, that the Serbs are innocent and it is NATO, which attacked Yugoslavia with bombs and lies and by instigating racial hatred, which is guilty. Slobodan Milosevic is the national leader who stood up to NATO. It is a terrible blow for this Tribunal, NATO's Tribunal, that they have been defeated by him, day after day, since the trial began in February. That is why in the proceedings this past Monday, the three Judges presented every argument to convince Mr. Milosevic to let some lawyer - any lawyer - replace him, or partly replace him, or sit with him in court, or take some step, any step to lessen his direct impact. To lessen his impact today and to lessen the impact of the transcripts of these proceedings which stand as permanent proof that Milosevic told the truth and NATO lied about the Serbs. In order to get our delegation to The Hague we need your financial help. Slobodan Milosevic is making a great impact. We are making an impact too and with your help, with your help we can do a hundred times more to assist him, to defend the truth. ** Here's How to Make a Donation ** * Make a donation at our secure server.

ICDSM ***************** 1) On 15 July 2002 ICTY 'Judge' Richard May summarized the findings of the *non-specialist* physicians who were, finally, permitted to examine Slobodan Milosevic. Note that the ICDSM and others, including Yugoslav physicians, had many times requested that *cardiologists* be permitted to examine the former Yugoslav President, but this urgent request had been denied without explanation. Here are 'Judge' May's own words during the session of the so-called trail on the 25th:
As the German Nobel Prize winning physicians noted in their open letter to The Hague, since Judge May made this statement, the ICTY has done exactly the opposite. 2) What can be the motivation of The Hague Tribunal in doing exactly the opposite of what their own doctors have recommended regarding Mr. Milosevic's health? It does not take a brain surgeon to figure it out. Originally, the "trial" was to be broadcast on TV worldwide, but when the 'tribunal' realized that Milosevic was winning (he had the unfair advantage of truth) the broadcasting was drastically curtailed in February and then virtually stopped. His statements and arguments are seldom if ever quoted in the press. Thus, there has been an obvious effort to silence him. But their problem is - he has not been silenced. And they know this record, the transcripts of these proceedings, cannot be erased. More and more people will read them and learn that they were lied to. Therefore, The Tribunal has essentially instigated this health crisis, by refusing to act on 'Judge" May's own July 25th report of the findings of The Tribunal's own doctors. (1) The idea is to silence Mr. Milosevic by any means necessary. To replace him with some attorney or, failing that, to have him suffer a heart attack or stroke, which they will describe as ' most regrettable.' --- Jared Israel for the ICDSM |
