Defend Peter Handke

Distinguished Austrian novelist, playwright, poet and essayist Peter Handke has been awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature along with Polish author Olga Tokarczuk.
Western news sources are uniformly reporting on this by attacking and highlighting others’ attacks on the recipient in reference to his opposition to U.S. and NATO policies in the Balkans over the past 28 years.
Handke’s alleged “outrages” and “crimes” consist of his speaking out against the forcible break-up of former Yugoslavia, NATO’s military campaigns against the Bosnian Serb Republic and the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia, NATO expansion through the Balkans and Eastern Europe as a whole and, perhaps especially, to the one-sided demonization of ethnic Serbs in the former Yugoslavia.
No sooner was his award announced than the full force of the American and European opinion-making juggernaut was activated against him: not as a writer but as a person.
It seems only a matter of days, if not hours, before his award is revoked. Please do what you can to defend Handke the writer and the principle of a person of letters’ right, indeed responsibility, to speak the truth as he discovers it.
