It will be enjoyable to watch the breathless way this is responded to by the anti-Serbo souls, like you and Hopelite.

The Road to Jenin

The Racak “massacre” hoax, and those whose honesty it places in doubt: Helena Ranta, NATO, the UN, The New York Times, The Washington Post, CNN, The Associated Press, and Human Rights Watch.

"It has since turned out, through subsequent investigations by German, French and American correspondents and by human rights and peace groups... that the Racak massacre seems an enormous, albeit effective, hoax…" - The Toronto Sun, April 1, 2001.


Pay close attention to the claim in the quote above. It says that the Racak so-called massacre was instead an enormous hoax.

What does that mean? It means that there never was a massacre at Racak.

And why does this matter? Because the allegation of a massacre in the Kosovo town of Racak was NATO's excuse to start bombing Serbia on March 24, 1999.

Hence, if Racak was a hoax, we must ask: did NATO really have a reason to bomb Serbia? The answer is no. Despite years of trying, NATO has failed to produce even *one* body of an Albanian civilian murdered by Milosevic's forces. You read correctly: not one. [1]

In this piece http://www.tenc.net/gilwhite/ranta.htm
I document that Finnish pathologist Helena Ranta, sent to investigate the events at Racak, prevaricated out of both sides of her mouth in order to give NATO the appearance of justification so that it could start bombing Serbia.

But Ranta's significance does not stop there. Given that she helped NATO engineer a hoax at Racak in order to slander the Serbs, we must ask: why did *the UN* try to send Ranta to 'investigate' allegations that the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) had supposedly perpetrated a massacre in Jenin? Do the powers that be have a preference for liars?

We shall begin with this point because if Ranta has been used more than once in the same duplicitous capacity, this suggests a pattern, and the pattern suggests a motivation by those who routinely send her.

Facts will never stop the anti-Serb bigots here (or anywhere else) from vomiting forth their hatred. Reality is not their friend.

I've posted the real numbers from OSCE on the "un"official body count for the Albanians and Serbs. If you are interested, I will post them for you.
