"Pro-vladin tabloid" prenosi ono što "nezavisna štampa" ne sme
Čuveni nemački filozof Klaus Tevelajt objavio je u magazinu „Konkret“ (1. april 1999) još u toku NATO-bombardovanja tekst „Logical, radical, criminal“ koji je po intelektualnoj snazi i cinično-kritičkom izrazu jedna od najoštrijih kritika tog bezumnog i bespravnog čina. Suštinski, Tevelajtov pristup je lični obračun sa generacijom šezdesetosmaša, koja je izdala sve svoje ideale, pacifizmu ne samo okrenula leđa, nego ga i umorila bombama i licemerjem. Tekst se sada prvi put pojavljuje na srpskom, jedan je od priloga u nizu tekstova koji će se pojaviti u NIN-u tokom ove godine kada se svuda u svetu velika pažnja posvećuje 1968, njenim idealima i – posledicama koje je taj svetski pokret ostavio
When I was young, it seemed that life was so wonderful,
A miracle, oh it was beautiful, magical.
And all the birds in the trees, well they'd be singing so happily,
Joyfully, playfully watching me.
But then they send me away to teach me how to be sensible,
Logical, responsible, practical.
And they showed me a world where I could be so dependable,
Clinical, intellectual, cynical.
There are times when all the worlds asleep,
The questions run too deep
For such a simple man.
Won't you please, please tell me what we've learned
I know it sounds absurd
But please tell me who I am.
Now watch what you say or they'll be calling you a radical,
Liberal, fanatical, criminal.
Won't you sign up your name, we'd like to feel you're
Acceptable, respectable, presentable,
A vegetable!
At night, when all the worlds asleep,
The questions run so deep
For such a simple man.
Won't you please, please tell me what we've learned
I know it sounds absurd
But please tell me who I am.
