They have links to human rights reports and pictures of civilian bodies massacred by government troops. They have statements by Kosovo unions begging for armed support from the US and Europe.
Basically, PeaceNet has taken a pro-war position on the Kosovo crisis.
If you go through the various reports and documentation of massacres, it may be clearer why many on the left are finding US bombing of Serbian military targets an acceptable strategy for stopping this wholesale destruction of Kosovo's communities. Whatever the level of murder you find too low to matter -- many have cited a 2000 number of Kosovan murders as too inconsequential to demand intervention -- the mass burning of villages and ethnic clensing should outrage you.
Many people on these lists have cited the antiwar position of the Serbian opposition forces, but let's be clear. The Kosovan community has been begging for military intervention to defend their communities from this wholesale carnage and destruction.
And are Amnesty International, Human Rights Watch, and IGC-Peacenet just tools of the KLA? I've attached one picture of victims from IGC's site. Whatever you want to say about the NATO intervention, it so far is targetting military targets. The same cannot be said about the Serbian government's troops and police.
