How I Defeated NATO
I spent the first night of NATO bombing in a barracks in Belgrade, along with all the mobilized reservists. Slobodan Milošević was in power. We cursed him, the NATO aggressor, and his servants from the red-black radical-socialist coalition, whose disastrous criminal policy led to the NATO aggression, down to the fourteenth generation of our families. Explosions were terrible, shaking everything. Officers ordered a campfire, so we gathered, gradually got acquainted, and began to talk and discuss the current political situation. We did this late into the night, as the army had direct information from NATO headquarters about the first targets. Our barracks were not on the list. It was unknown what the NATO campaign would look like.
