NATO SHOULD
GIVE WEAPONS
TO THE KLA

It is the fifth day of NATO bombings over Yugoslavia. Despite the heavy emphasis on striking all positions with NATO air power, it seems insufficient to stop the tragic catastrophe that is taking place in Kosovo at this very moment. Hundreds and thousands of Kosovars, terrified by the brutal Serbs, are fleeing to cross the border in endless numbers. Yesterday, more than the armed forces crossed the Albanian-Serbian border. NATO needs ground troops that would be able to cancel out a frontal strategy, especially against an enemy that is not giving up the Albanian territories. There are only a few who think that the air-strike campaign launched and declared by the leaders of the Alliance and by the Kosovar civilians will not be able to achieve in the short time required by the course of events. Anyone who thinks that the Kosovo Liberation Army is standing idly by in the face of the savage massacre by the Serbs against civilians is gravely mistaken. NATO is bombing from above. Only these days has the deployment of the KLA been observed on both sides of the border, waiting to be brought in to fight on open ground. The more clearly it moves, the more clearly we understand how and why the Albanians of Kosovo have risen up and are fighting without surrendering. NATO, still armed and determined in the field, but from a technical and political point of view, and more than that, NATO, especially the USA, while making other decisions, not even out of indifference, have placed a pressing urgency on the final table to bring in ground troops and arm the KLA to fight on the ground.
