I wouldn’t be surprised if Biden doesn’t summon up retired General Wesley Clark back into action.

The British general in charge of NATO forces in Kosovo refused to obey an order from NATO’s supreme commander, an American, to evict Russian troops after their surprise take-over of the main airfield there in June, the Pentagon’s senior military commander told Congress today.

The dispute between the two commanders was resolved quickly by British and American military leaders in favor of the Briton, Gen. Sir Michael Jackson, over the American, Gen. Wesley K. Clark.

General Jackson had rejected the order from his superior by saying: ‘’No, I’m not going to do that. It’s not worth starting World War III.’’
