Rules of war

Re: Apparatchik's Apologist, June 10.

Svend Robinson is not the only one who believes NATO violated the rules of war when its aircraft dropped thousands of cluster bombs on Yugoslavia, targeted television stations, blew out bridges across the Danube, smashed Belgrade's power grid and heating stations and rocketed a passenger train.

The National Post may choose to agree that the opinion of Carla Del Ponte of the International Criminal Tribunal for the Former Yugoslavia carries more weight than Amnesty International or Human Rights Watch. The real question is: Does her opinion carry more weight than the Geneva Convention?

James Bissett,
Canadian Ambassador to Yugoslavia, 1990-92, Ottawa.
