Macedonia deploys the super-weapon: Truth!

LaRouche "Strategy of Truth" in Macedonia

New bin Laden, KLA, US, British links

By Umberto Pascali

Oct 31 (EIRNS)--Last September 2 at the Schiller Institute Conference in Reston.

Virginia, Lyndon LaRouche enunciated what is now known as the "Macedonia Victory

Strategy" against the Kosovo Liberation Army [KLA] irregular warfare.  Asked by a

Macedonian delegation how to save "our country's sovereignty," LaRouche stated:

{"You must be able to tell the truth!"} He explained: "You have to get the enemy

coming at you where you want him… you have to have a plan, based on the

truth…The problem is that the active forces  [for the KLA] are coming from the United

States, in part, through the Special Forces type of operation, running behind what was

set up in Albania. This is where the [KLA] attack comes from…

"So, therefore, we have to have a policy in which we trap them. How? By

catching them and exposing them for what they are. The game is to bring down some

governments … To create crises in the governments, which are responsible for this … If

you don't have the military forces to win, you've got to outflank them… to make this

thing so painful to them [to the government responsible] that they withdraw. It is the

only chance we have…." LaRouche also underlined; "You hear this insane stuff about

Donald Rumsfeld and the US military… He is shutting down the US military. Why?

Because the kind of warfare that they intend to use is of a different variety, it is

irregular warfare…."

          That statement, a well placed Balkan observer noticed recently, "came to mind

when we saw all these revelations on the bin Laden networks in the and the surprising

connections with Anglo-American agencies both in the past and now… Is someone

implementing the Strategy of Truth?"

Nobody stopped bin Laden gangs

          New Federalist readers will remember the story of Al-Zawahiri, the brother of

Osama bin Laden's right hand man, who led a terrorist training camp near the Kosovo

village of Ropotovo, {inside the US controlled zone}. The story, prominently reported by

Russian media, was confirmed as "true" by the Macedonian Intelligence. Despite a weak

denial by the NATO-K-For in Kosovo, many sources confirmed officially and unofficially

that All-Zawahiri international mujahadeens recently crossed from NATO controlled

Kosovo into Macedonia. Nobody stopped them. And punctually terrorism activities

restarted in the country.

On Oct 22 the police station and municipality of Tearce in the North was bombed

after a symbolic patrol of the Macedonian police in these and other towns previously

occupied by the KLA. On the 25th a communiqué by the Albanian National Army (ANA)

claimed responsibility. ANA is the new name taken by the KLA after the farcical

 "voluntary disarmament" known as Operation Essential Harvest. ANA announced that

any attempt by the Macedonian government to go back to the areas from where the

KLA expelled and destroyed the properties of Macedonians, "is not only unacceptable,

but will be considered as an occupation."

On Oct 31 the road just outside the city of Tetovo was blocked by armed men.

Terrorist shootings took place again and Macedonian policemen were ambushed. These

new assaults coming from NATO controlled Kosovo and involving bin Laden networks

are escalating despite the statements made by both the head of the US office in

Kosovo, John Menzie and the US Ambassador in Moscow, Alexander Vershbow that

from now on the US will treat attacks on Macedonia as terrorist acts not anymore

"insurgency."

Direct US Interferences

The big obstacle for Macedonia sovereignty – one-sixth to one-third of the

country is under narco-. terrorist occupation -- remains the "international community."

In a {Washington Times} interview to the Russian senior journalist, Jury Sigov,

Macedonia interior minister Ljube Boskovski revealed: "the Macedonia police is not

allowed to come to the areas of Tetovo, Kumanovo, Anichkovo [where the KLA is

stationed]. If we were allowed we would crush them in one day. When we got helicopter

gunships from Ukraine, we destroyed the terrorist immediately. But after that the

international community  demanded from us to stop…"  In a parallel interview, the

speaker of the Parliament, Stojan Andov, denounced the "strange logic" of NATO: "We

Macedonians have been told we cannot use aircraft against the terrorists because they

do not have these weapons. We are not allowed to use mortars… but, if we follow the

same logic the US military cannot use [most of their weapons] against the Taliban."

In a rare interview (to the Halifax Herald, Oct 29) the deputy director of

Macedonian intelligence apparently took up the "Strategy of Truth." He reported new

details: "Shortly after our [helicopter gunships offensive] our pilots reported being

targeted by sophisticated (US-made) Stinger missiles. It is our information that the UCK

received the Stingers from their Mujahadeen connections in Afghanistan… We have

already supplied a substantial dossier [on the bin Laden-KLA connection] to the CIA, and

obtaining further proof of this connection is our ministry Nr 1 priority."

However, the Intelligence official stressed, the biggest obstacle to the

investigative efforts is political pressure from NATO including – according to the herald

paraphrases – "direct interference from the United States."
