The Finnish report was pretty clear... and didn't use methods heavily prone towards false positives like Belarus and Serbia. (What a surprise... outdated tests that happen to falsey point the way they'd want to point if someone so much as smoked a cigarette.) |
Do you know how the whole Racak hoax was triggered? William Walker came to visit some KLA leaders in the village and they started whining to him about military support .
As for the finnish report this is what they said, based on their examination of 37 bodies :
- there were no executions
- no mutilation of bodies
- there were no shooting marks from close distance
The leader of the finnish team, Helena Rant, did state the most of victims were unarmed based on fact they had no ammo in their pockets. The gun holes on their body,do however suggest that they were either killed on crossfire or on battlefield. And while she did call thiis a crime against humanity (which can be found in every war) she never called it a massacre, genocide or ethnic cleansing.
However, when she published her autobiographical book in 2008, she said she was under EXTREME pressure from William Walker and the Finnish foreign affairs when she was in Kosovo. She said Walker demanded from her that her words be ''more convincing and exaggerating''. Finnish affairs wanted that her report be more ''in depth'' (ie they were looking for a reason to accuse serbs). At one point, she even said Walker hit her with a thrown pencil out of rage and unsatisfacton for her report.
In a russian documentary ''The End'' she stated just how mad Walker was about her report, and she even went as far to show the actual report, never seen before.
So as you can see, the finnish report was quite clear indeed...
