This a transcript of an interview that an unnamed architect of the Yugoslavia War to journalist.
JOURNALIST: Why did NATO attack Yugoslavia?
US ARCHITECT: Because Yugoslavia refused to sign the Rambouillet. Accord-Ultimatum 9 Wednesday April 28, 1999 ) which the US State Department issued.
JOURNALIST: Was there anything objectionable in it why the Yugoslavs refused to sign it?
US ARCHITECT: No. Nothing at all. It was a very innocent and most reasonable little agreement. It just mandated NATO presence in the little part of Yugoslavia called Kosovo and nothing else.
JOURNALIST: How about the rest of Yugoslavia? Didn't the Yugoslavs complain that if they signed this accord, they would give NATO soldiers the right to travel anywhere in Yugoslavia itself, to rape any girl they wanted, to occupy any Yugoslav city they wanted, to liquidate any Yugoslav old woman they wanted, to rob any bank they wanted and in general to commit any crimes there? Not Kosovo but the rest of Yugoslavia!
US ARCHITECT: Well, this Accord gave the American citizens and soldiers the rights to behave exactly the way we expect them to behave in ANY OTHER COUNTRY IN THE WORLD.
JOURNALIST: Did this Accord give the right to any American to KILL ANY CIVIANS HE PLEASES, to RAPE ANY YUGOSLAV WOMAN he pleases, to ROB BANKS, and to STEAL from Yugoslav civilians any property they please ANYWHERE in Yugoslavia (FRY), if they wanted to?
US ARCHITECT: Yes. Here what the Rambouillet. Accord says:
"7. NATO personnel shall be immune from any form of arrest, investigation, or detention by the authorities in the FRY."
"6. (a) NATO shall be immune from all legal process, whether civil, administrative, or criminal. (b) NATO personnel, under all circumstances and at all times, shall be immune from the Parties' jurisdiction in respect of any civil, administrative, criminal, or disciplinary offenses which may be committed by them in the FRY."
US ARCHITECT: But that's the rights that we expect all other countries to accord to American soldiers and citizens. Remember - we, Americans, are the beacons of Democracy and Freedom and want to spread it all over the World. One of such basic freedoms is the freedom for US soldiers to rape girls and liquidate women and children.
JOURNALIST: Didn't the Accord give NATO the right to conduct any military operations or wars on the territory of all of Yugoslavia (not just Kosovo), including any operations to impose USA-controlled rule over all of Yugoslavia, it NATO pleased?

US ARCHITECT: Yes. Here what the Rambouillet. Accord says:
"8. NATO personnel shall enjoy, together with their vehicles, vessels, aircraft, and equipment, free and unrestricted pbuttage and unimpeded access throughout the FRY including buttociated airspace and territorial waters. This shall include, but not be limited to, the right of bivouac, maneuver, billet, and utilization of any areas or facilities as required for support, training, and operations."
"10. The authorities in the FRY shall facilitate, on a priority basis and with all appropriate means, all movement of personnel, vehicles, vessels, aircraft, equipment, or supplies, through or in the airspace, ports, airports, or roads used. "
"17. NATO and NATO personnel shall be immune from claims of any sort which arise out of activities in pursuance of the operation; however, NATO will entertain claims on an ex gratia basis. (means 'by favour'; without any legal obligation.)"
JOURNALIST: Didn't the Accord give NATO the right to control all Yugoslav radio and TV, if they wanted to?
US ARCHITECT: Yes:
"15. The Parties shall, upon simple request, grant all telecommunications services, including broadcast services, needed for the operation, as determined by NATO. This shall include the right to utilize such means and services as required to butture full ability to communicate, and the right to use all of the electro-magnetic spectrum for this purpose, free of cost. "
JOURNALIST: If a US soldier wanted to engage in the international drug trafficking to-from Yugoslavia, would the Accord give him such right, if he wanted to?
US ARCHITECT: Yes:
"9. NATO shall be exempt from ... inspections and custom regulations including providing inventories or other routine customs documentation, for personnel,... equipment, supplies, and provisions entering, exiting, or transiting the territory of the FRY 3. The Parties recognize the need for expeditious departure and entry procedures for NATO personnel. Such personnel shall be exempt from pbuttport and visa regulations and the registration requirements applicable to aliens."
US ARCHITECT: And the Yugoslavs didn't want to sign this benign, reasonable and innocent document. Imagine that! I am glad we carpet planted their civilians in retaliation for their refusal to sign. As I said, we Americans and NATO bring peace, sovereignty, freedoms and democracy to every country that we choose to invade-attack.
