  • Milosevic divides Belgrade in death By Nick Hawton BBC News, Belgrade
    19 March 2006 par (Open-Publishing)

    It was a tale of two cities.
    The city that sees Slobodan Milosevic as a Serb hero, who did everything to defend his people and who was finally and, brutally, killed by his opponents.
    And the city that sees the former president as the epitome of evil best forgotten and consigned to the history books.
    Under the leaden skies, Mr Milosevic’s supporters gathered in their thousands outside the federal parliament building.
    Mostly in their 40s and 50s, they carried portraits of their hero (…)

    16 March 2006 par (Open-Publishing)

    Slobodan Milosevic is characterized in the obituaries as the “Butcher of the Balkans.” If that is the story you want to read about, please go to almost any other media outlet and read it again and again. Some are now suggesting that death is Milosevic’s final revenge, that he “ended up cheating history” by dying before judgment was passed. But the world has already passed judgment on Milosevic and what is being cheated by his death is history itself.
    What the corporate media overwhelmingly (…)

    15 March 2006 par (Open-Publishing)

    The prospect that Europe and Asia might move towards greater independence has troubled US planners since the second world war. The concerns have only risen as the "tripolar order"—Europe, North America and Asia—has continued to evolve.
    Every day Latin America, too, is becoming more independent. Now Asia and the Americas are strengthening their ties while the reigning superpower, the odd man out, consumes itself in misadventures in the Middle East.
