You did not understand. Of course, Miloshevic is the bad guy, completely. He
did not care about killing innocent people.
WE should show that WE cherish lives and care for innocent people more than
anything else and not just shrug our shoulders and say: that's a fact of war
that innocents get killed. Otherwise, the gap between us and "them" is not
so big.

>> I, Peter Rebernik and all undersigned, demand the following from the
>> responsible persons of NATO:
>>
>>
>> All people belonging to the democratic and civilised nations regret
deeply
>> that in the course of the bombing of Serbia by the NATO, many innocent
>> people died and were wounded.
>> Not one of them was tried or convicted for racism against any person of
>> another origin e.g. Albanian or because of any involvement in the ethnic
>> cleansing in Kosovo.
>> These persons were hit "just by accident". They could be defined as
>innocent
>> victims of a greater cause.
>>
>> Since the organisation and the members of NATO claim that they represent
>> civilised nations defending the ideals of humanity and democracy, these
>> persons and their families have the right to be recognised as innocent
>> victims.
>> The ancient rule of "the goals justify any kind of means" have to be
>> denounced as uncivilised and not worthy of any of the democratic and
>> civilised members of NATO.
>>
>> Therefore, it is demanded that the commander-in-chief of Nato in the name
>of
>> the responsible member states apologises in person officially and offers
>> substantial assistance to the families of killed persons and to the
>> surviving heavy wounded persons - irrespective of any changes in the
>> government of Serbia.
>>
>> The NATO officials should confess that it was a mistake to kill and wound
>> innocent persons in the process of defending humanity.
>> They should also promise that in future the military personnel will be
>> trained better to limit the unwanted human causalities. In future, it
will
>> be NATO's policy to train a pilot better: If a pilot can hit a narrow
>bridge
>> exactly, he can also look for any train crossing before bombing the
bridge
>> etc.
>>
>>
>> If you agree with this demand, please forward it to NATO
>>
>>
