在文中，作者批评了海牙法庭文件中标题为“审查北约对南联盟轰炸行动委员会向检察官提交的最终报告”的态度和结论。本文开头指出，对自然环境造成的损害、使用贫铀弹、集束炸弹以及与攻击目标选择有关的法律问题的一般法律估计在多大程度上存在争议且难以维持。此外，还以一些被杀平民（约500人）“并不表明北约可能进行了一场战役”的态度对轰炸行动的一般估计进行了评论。旨在直接或偶然造成大量平民伤亡”，其中引入了一个评估某人意图的有趣标准——受害者人数。考虑到“具体事件”，委员会没有解释其中哪些事件。对报告中提到的内容以及与之相关的估计进行了评论。尤其是在贝尔格莱德RTS大楼爆炸案中，这种做法在战争史上是史无前例的。作者认为，仅由于所称的疏忽，匿名委员会才能得出结论“无论是对整个爆炸活动进行深入调查，还是对具体事件进行调查，都是不合理的”。
In the text, the author criticizesattitudes and conclusions in the document ofthe Hague Tribunal under the title ``FinalReport to the Prosecutor by the CommitteeEstablished to Review the NATO Bombing CampaignAgainst the FRY''. At the beginning of thepaper, it is indicated to what extent generallegal estimation on damage inflicted to naturalenvironment, the use of projectiles withdepleted uranium, cluster bombs as well aslegal questions related to the choice oftargets for attacks are controversial andhardly maintainable.Also, it is given a comment on thegeneral estimation of the bombing campaign withan attitude that a number of killed civilians(around 500) ``does not indicate that NATO mayhave conducted a campaign aimed at causingsubstantial civilian casualties either directlyor incidentally'', by which an interestingcriterion for the estimation of somebody'sintention – the number of victims – isintroduced.Considering ``specific incidents'',it is stated which of them the Commission didnot explain. Those mentioned in the Report arecommented as well as the estimations related tothem. It is especially done in the case of thebombing of the RTS building in Belgrade, untilthen, without precedent in the history of wars.The author considers that only dueto the stated negligence, the anonymousCommission could conclude ``that neither anin-depth investigation related to the bombingcampaign as a whole nor investigation relatedto specific incidents are justified''.
