Letter: Insult from Blair

Your support helps us to tell the story

From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Your support makes all the difference.

Sir: If only 1 per cent of the horror the Serbs are being reported as visiting on the Albanians is true it is outrageous. But what is also horrifying and outrageous is that the Serb response to the bombing was completely foreseeable. Do our leaders now expect us to believe that they are going to fly around picking off Serb tanks and platoons, and halting the atrocities that way.

Tony Blair's insistence (Parliamentary report, 30 March) that there is no causation between the bombing and the increase in Serb atrocities is an insult to the intelligence of all British men and women.
