To: Lion in Winter
I am against all enemies of the United States; whether they be communists, Islamist terrorists, or murdering thugs like Noriega, Milosevic, and Saddam Hussein.

BTW, Lion, Serbs were arming Saddam Hussein right up through 2002, their leaders were recipients of Saddam's oil for food bribes, and they are cozying up to Iran. What is the story behind your attraction to America's enemy?

Saddam's Serb Supplier

Iran-Serbia Security Cooperation Agreement

April 6, 1989: Yugoslavia establishes diplomatic relations with the State of Palestine. PLO office in Belgrade acquires the status of an embassy.

Serbia-Iraq want united anti-U.S. front

U.S. Says Serb Defense Firms Developing Cruise Missile for Baghdad

The Orao Deal

Saddam's Oil Voucher Recipients (Slobo & his wife combined to be the biggest political recipients of Saddam's oil bribes in Europe. The Yugo Socialist Party received vouchers for 1,000,000 barrels and the Yugo Left party received 9.5 million; those organizations were headed by Mr. and Mrs. Milosevic, respectively.)

And there's more to come as the documents captured in Baghdad continue to be translated. The Iraqi Perspectives Report prepared by the U.S. military details Serb missions to Saddam Hussein in 2001 (post-Milosevic and post 9/11 by the way) intended to help Iraq kill Americans. Here's one of the gems from that report:

"In a meeting with the leader of the Serb Radical Party in 2001, Saddam discussed how he was not impressed with the "Imperialist Tactics" of the United States because, in his opinion, Serbia was able to withstand them. Captured Iraqi document dated 12 December 2001, "Meeting Minutes between Saddam Hussein and Leader of Serb Radical Party."

That was the Communists supporting Saddam, not Serbia. Had the UN not imposed crippling sanctions on Serbia and Montenegro, there would've been no need to trade weapons for oil.
