    An authoritative account of the conspiracy by Slobodan Milošević, Borisav Jović and Veljko Kadijević to break up the former Yugoslavia and carve out a Great Serbia


    Part I – We pretend to resist their pretended secession

    Serbs do not prize the truth. It is thought here that to rely on the truth, and to depend on it, is to be naive, stupid and weak.
    Sreten Ugričić

    ‘The wars of the 1990s on the territory of the former Yugoslavia were caused by separatist efforts on the part of Slovenia, Croatia and Bosnia-Herzegovina unconstitutionally to separate from Yugoslavia, which the SFRY Presidency tried to prevent by use of the JNA’s military power, in order to protect the country’s constitutional order and territorial integrity.’

    This, more or less, is the basic argument of Milošević’s propaganda, which he used from time to time to justify his actions. This argument also formed the basis of his defence before the Hague tribunal. Lastly, this argument is a monumental falsity, the parapet behind which Serb nationalism hides to this very day: hailing Karadžić and Mladić as heroes, because they were only defending the Serb people, which the separatists were attempting to wrench from the Serbian motherland; and insisting on the assertion that Serbia was not involved in the war, and that the conflict was in the nature of a spontaneously created civil war in which the JNA was merely trying to separate the warring parties and protect the people.

    The falsity of this thesis can best be proved by a thought experiment in which we assume that the SFRY managed to survive (let’s say through an outside military intervention, something that according to his own testimony in the BBC programme The Death of Yugoslavia Karadžić greatly feared). In the context of such an experiment, the role and activities of Slobodan Milošević, Borisav Jović and Veljko Kadijević (as well as many others who implemented their orders) would have qualified according to the laws of that very same SFRY as high treason punishable by death.

    The thought experiment that we propose is to formulate the elements of the indictment according to which Milošević, Jović and Kadijević would have been tried in a Yugoslav court, in accordance with the Yugoslav laws then valid, had they not succeeded in destroying the SFRY.
    The charge against them would have included the following:

    Slobodan Milošević, in his capacity as President of the Presidency of the Central Committee of the League of Communists of Serbia (before 16 July 1990) , President of the Socialist Party of Serbia (from 16 July 1990), and President of the Republic of Serbia (from 9 December 1990),

    Borisav Jović, in his capacity as President of the Presidency of the SFRY (from 15 May 1989) and Vice-President of the Socialist Party of Serbia (from 16 July 1990), and

    Veljko Kadijević, in his capacity as Federal Secretary for National Defence in the period from 15 May 1989 to 8 October 1992

    formed a conspiracy in order, by abusing their political authority,

    1. unconstitutionally and illegally to alter the national composition of the JNA, place the JNA under their effective control, and use it in the pursuit of the following aims:
    2. forcibly to overthrow the governments of Slovenia and Croatia;
    3. forcibly to overthrow by a military coup the highest federal governmental bodies - the Federal Executive Council ([Savezno izvršno v(ij)eče or] SIV) and the Presidency;
    4. forcibly or by unconstitutional means to alter the borders of the SFRY, by excluding the Republic of Slovenia and the Republic of Croatia from the SFRY by an unconstitutional order of the Presidency;
    5. forcibly or by unconstitutional means to change the borders of the Republic of Croatia, by instigating, and politically and militarily organising, an armed rebellion in Croatia;
    which caused the death of a large number of people, placed human lives in danger, and was accompanied by great acts of violence and extensive destruction;

    and by so doing they each individually, and collectively together, committed an extended criminal act on the basis of Article 136, § 1, and of Article 116, §§ 1. and.2,. in the most serious forms, punishable by Article 139 of the Criminal Code (Official SFRY Journal, no. 44/76).

    The criminal acts cited contain the following dispositions:

    Article 136 says:
    1. Whoever creates a conspiracy, circle, group or other association of persons for the purpose of perpetrating criminal acts as defined by articles 114 to 119, § 2., Articles 120 to 123, Articles 125 to 127 and Articles 131 to 132 of this law, or who creates a group for the purpose of moving or directing the citizens of SFRY abroad to commit hostile activities against SFRY, will be punished by imprisonment for no less than five years.

    Article 116 says:
    1. Whoever commits an act designed forcibly or unconstitutionally to separate part of the SFRY’s territory, or to add part of this territory to another state, will be punished by imprisonment of no less than five years.

    2. Whoever commits and act designed forcibly or unconstitutionally to alter the borders between the republics and the autonomous provinces will be punished by imprisonment of no less than one year. Article 116 incriminates as an autonomous action the preparatory activity and the attempt to change borders.

    Article 139 says:
    For committing a criminal act - according to Article 114, Article 115 § 1, Articles 116 to 121, Articles 123 to 128, Article 132, and Article 136 § 1. of this law - that causes the death of some person, or places human life in danger, or is accompanied by great violence and extensive destruction, or has endangered the security, economic and military capacity of the country - or in other exceptionally grave cases - the perpetrator will be punished by imprisonment of no less than ten years or by death,

    Article 118, § 3. determines what is considered preparatory activity in the case of such actions.
    Article 118, § 3 says:

    When the law prescribes punishment for the preparation of a certain criminal act, the preparation may consist of acquisition or activation of the means for execution of the criminal act, removal of obstacles to the execution of the criminal act, negotiations, planning and organising with others to commit the criminal act, as well as other activities serving to create the conditions for immediate execution of the criminal act, but which do not represent the act of execution.

    The facts pointing to the execution of this act are based almost exclusively on Borisav Jović’s diary, published under the title 'Poslednji dani SFRJ' [“The Last Days of the SFRY”, (Belgrade, Politika 1995), and Veljko Kadijević’s memoirs Moje viđenje raspada - vojska bez države [“My View of the Break-Up - an army without a state”] (Belgrade: Politika 1993).
    The credibility of the facts which these contain, and which relate to the creation of a conspiracy, derives

    (a) from the essential concordance of their testimonies;
    (b) from the fact that they testify to their own actions; as well as
    (c) from the fact that one cannot conceive of a credible motive for their own [false] self-incrimination.

    In addition, not only did Milošević never deny the claims by Jović and Kadijević, but their books were also published by the Politika publishing company over which Milošević had full control.
    It is true that, at his trial in The Hague, Milošević denied during the hearing of the witness Stjepan Mesić that he had ever read Jović’s book. This assertion is contested, however, by Miodrag Marović in his book Politika i istina [“Politics and the Truth”] (Belgrade: Helsinški Committee for Human Rights 2002, p.331): ‘Mihajlo Marković said – and the media published-- that Milošević had handled Jović’s manuscript.’
    Finally, the plans and intentions of the conspirators, as they themselves describe them, were concretely realised during the subsequent political and military events.

    Let us now turn to the activities by means of which they accomplished certain essential elements of these criminal acts... ....

    The fable about other ethnic groups “being brutalized by Albanians” is just Serb propaganda.

    Milosevic had absolutely no authority to interfere with the rights of Kosovo, which were protected by the Constitution.

    According to Yugoslav law he was a traitor and would have been executed if he had not succeeded in destroying Yugoslavia.

    The only suitable slogan for the Hermanator is:
    “Make him the first black President”.
    Not that racism is justified, but nothing is more important than the usurpation.

    Those Serb apologists for and deniers of mass murder have made me me understand why Roosevelt chose to demand unconditional surrender from the German Nazis: nothing less than a crushing defeat is necessary to force a people to abandon a dominant political culture which is so corrupt that it automatically implies denying the very existence, as human beings, of neighboring people.

    This lesson also holds, of course, for the other kind of Nazis, the Muslim Nazis, and particularly the so-called "Palestinians": they, too, must be forced to abandon their genocidal dreams by utter and total defeat.
