Report of the American Ambassadors: the master gives, the servants do not release

Alfred Lela

The report of the Council of American Ambassadors revealed not that Sali Berisha is persecuted twice without facts because the authors of non-grata and house arrest already knew this, but that there is another America, unofficial, burdenless, and free, who speaks the truth as it is.

Sali Berisha does not have to be satisfied, and neither do his supporters. Poisoned by this report are those who, all these long months, have built in Tirana the construct of an imaginary America, outside of which all the supporters of the opposition leader, the so-called anti-Americans, were left out.

The Council has removed the scaffolding from this construction, and now they are hostages in the wrong tower they built themselves.

Sali Berisha is no longer in confinement, but they are.

His supporters are no longer 'anti-American.' Now, their accusers are captives of a political dystopia.

The fact that they are silent when such news is out proves that they only talk about commissioned propaganda news. They are not interested in reality but in its parallel, the mirror where they and the government look good.

The report of the American Ambassadors has 'killed' two official lines. That of the State Department and the Rama government. It also shared lousy news for the latter: Berisha was designated, supposedly, to warn Rama. But wait: If Berisha has been punished without facts for warning Rama about whom there are facts, otherwise why send a 'telegram' via Berisha- what kind of punishment will he get?!

The Cassandras of the majority should read this fact about their commander at the end of power.

The report has deconstructed an even bigger myth, pushed into the public arena by government propaganda in recent months since the SPAK was unleashed on Berisha and Malltezi.

This myth tells us that it is not Rama; he is even interested in protecting Berisha because he keeps him in power (!?). Behind the persistence of SPAK are the Americans.

Well, the Report of the Council of Ambassadors tells us the opposite. The Americans wanted a shunned Berisha, not a prisoned one. A martyred Berisha becomes an inevitable Berisha through a doubly unjust and fact-free persecution.

Therefore, Berisha's persecution is a political act prepared in the chambers of the executive and judicial powers.

The report of the Council of American Ambassadors is the second act of revoking Berisha's non-grata status. The first one was formulated by the British in exchanges with the DP Chaiorman's lawyers. A surrendered Home Office admitted that they have no facts but cannot withdraw the non-grata because that would mean public shame.

Non-grata has fallen, both American and British since it never had a basis. It arose as a means of communication and political maneuvering, not as a legal act of justice or ethics.

What the Americans and the British seem to have 'surrendered'; the 'Americans' and 'British' of Tirana do not give up. They intend to do more for the West than even those tasked with protecting it. It is the natural complex of the one who does not belong and the renegade; it is the former soldiers of the Warsaw Pact who declare more love for NATO even than the founding countries; it is the effort to be more Catholic than the Pope, more American than the WASP's of the East Coast.

The report should be read correctly, especially by one party: SPAK and the courts. They are facing a critical decision in their professional lives as jurists. Will they continue as political persecutors, or will they return to the safety of the law? Will they hold the political line, or will they understand in the text of that Report that every such order is deconstructed one day, and the implementers, more than the orderers, become ridiculous and forced to account?
