Letter: Media aid for Serbs
Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.Sir: My stomach churned when I saw television pictures of Tony Blair, Robin Cook and George Robertson sitting down to a sumptuous celebratory banquet as the bombs rained down on Serbia and the refugees shivered in their tents. Blair and the others were celebrating 49 years and 11 months of Nato success and one month of unpardonable folly.
Nato has got the military tactics wrong, the politics wrong and the refugee crisis wrong - with 600,000 refugees, Britain has admitted 159. This is shameful. Folly compounds folly. Give up now, Tony, before you get us into an even bigger mess. Let the UN sort it out now.
