TERRORIST THUG BOASTS:
"THANKS TO UNCLE SAM, MACEDONIANS
ARE NO MATCH FOR US!"
Eyewitness report by Scott Taylor, retired Canadian
military man, author of 'Inat' and 'Tested Mettle'
(http://emperors-clothes.com/reviews/INAT.htm)
and editor of Esprit de Corps Magazine [21 August 2001]
TETOVO, Macedonia -
Last Monday, international envoys and government officials
in Macedonia hammered out a last-minute peace accord.
However, this 11th-hour attempt to avoid yet another Balkans
civil war may yet prove to be a case of too little, too late, as
the fighting here continues to escalate.
Under the terms of the agreement, once a solid ceasefire can
be established, a NATO force of some 3,000 peacekeepers,
including a whopping three Canadian officers, will be
deployed in Macedonia.
The major task of these troops will be to disarm the ethnic
Albanian guerrillas who have established control of nearly
30 per cent of Macedonia's territory.
For the battered Macedonian security forces that have fought
the guerrillas over the past six months, the arrival of the NATO
force will be a bitter pill to swallow.
"If NATO hadn't been arming and equipping the (guerrillas) in
Kosovo there would be no need for them to disarm these
guerrillas now in Macedonia," said Goran Stevanovic, a
sergeant with the elite Macedonian police Wolves.
At the diplomatic level, the provision of military aid to the
guerrillas is vehemently denounced, but on the ground in
Macedonia, there is no denying the massive amount of
materiel and expertise supplied by NATO to the guerrillas.
Their commanders welcomed me with a shout of "God
bless America, and Canada, too, for all that they have
provided to us!"
In the well-built guerrilla bunkers overlooking the besieged
city of Tetovo, there is ample evidence of U.S. military
hardware. Everything from sidearms and sniper rifles to
menacing-looking grenade launchers is emblazoned Made
in the USA.
An abundant stock of sophisticated night-vision goggles
provide the guerrillas with a tremendous tactical advantage
over the Macedonian security forces. By nightfall, the
Macedonians are compelled to hole up in their bunkers
while the guerrillas roam with impunity throughout the
Tetovo streets.
Snake Arifaj, a 22-year-old guerrilla platoon commander,
proudly displayed his unit's impressive arsenal and said,
"Thanks to Uncle Sam, the Macedonians are no match
for us."
Two weeks ago, there was a flurry of diplomatic protests filed
by the Macedonian government when two U.S. helicopters
were observed delivering supplies to an Albanian village in
the mountains above Tetovo. Officially, the U.S. claimed their
aircraft were only transporting humanitarian aid.
However, the local guerrilla commander, Commander "Mouse,"
a 47-year-old UCK officer in the Tetovo sector contradicted
this statement and confirmed that two US Chinook Heavy
Transport Helicopters had in fact delivered "heavy mortars and
ammunition" to the guerrillas.
As proof of Mouse's claim, on Thursday the guerrillas began
bombarding Tetovo with 120-mm and 82-mm mortars.
Judging from the duration and intensity of the bombardment
that I witnessed, ammunition supply is not a problem for the
guerrillas.
"We have all the equipment and men we need to capture
Skopje in 24 hours," said Commander "Jimmy", a 22-year-old
Albanian guerrilla who is already a veteran of Chechnya,
Kosovo, and south Serbia. "Militarily, the Macedonians are
no match for our soldiers."
The U.S. also frequently used their tactical helicopters to
gather intelligence inside Macedonia, without authorization
from the Macedonian government. The sight of the U.S.
choppers prompted the ethnic Albanian villagers to cheer
wildly, waving their arms to encourage "their" air force.
Further illustration of this Albanian sentiment toward U.S.
aircraft can be found at the guerrilla brigade headquarters,
just outside Tetovo. Here the security platoon wear T-shirts
emblazoned with a Nike logo and the words:
"NATO Air - Just Do It!"
On the other side of this conflict, the woefully equipped
Macedonian forces have been hard pressed to field a
credible fighting force. In order to obtain a peaceful
secession from Yugoslavia in 1992, the fledgling Republic
of Macedonia agreed to turn over all the federal military
assets to Serbia / Montenegro. As a result of their bankrupt
treasury and slumping economy, Macedonia did not put a
priority on re-equipping an army. However, once the
Albanian guerrillas began their insurgency in March of this
year, the Macedonians had no choice but to rapidly
enhance their tiny security forces.
Over the past six months, there has been a tremendous
infusion of modern weaponry (and mercenary "advisers")
into Macedonia, with the bulk of support coming from
Ukraine.
At the height of last week's fighting, both George Robertson
and Javier Solana - respectively the NATO and European
Union secretary generals - made personal entreaties to
Ukraine to cut off this vital military aid.
Given such interference, it's little wonder that the
Macedonian majority have staged violent anti-NATO riots,
attacking embassies and McDonald's restaurants over the
past several weeks.
In the past, Canadian soldiers serving as peacekeepers
in the Balkans have won a hard-earned reputation from all
factions for their fairness and impartiality. However, after
the 1999 bombing campaign against Yugoslavia, and now
through the provision of illicit aid to the guerrillas, Canada's
foreign ministry is steadily eroding that trust. When, or if,
those three Canadians deploy into wartorn Macedonia, it
will no doubt dishearten them to know that the death and
destruction that they encounter was aided and abetted
by their own government.
