Hillary Convinced Bill to Bomb Serbia

For the their support of the attack on Serbia,I wonder if any of the Rodham Republicans received a thank you card from the KLA and their Al Qaeda allies, which was sent air mail delivery, and postmarked 911?

Great post! I hope the majority of us never forget that in Hillary's quest the lives of others, not even children, means nothing to her. The US led NATO bombing of Serbia proves how anti-Christian the Clintons really are.

I always wondered if we were fighting on the right side in Kosovo. It now sounds like there is no evidence to support Clinton's cause for war.

[JohnGalt]

Think about your post and how it relates to the current events in Iraq.

[lilylangtree]

Remember the Clintoons were famous for bombing countries as a distraction against the erupting Clintoon sexual scandals. So, in March 1999, along with the bombing of Serbia was the beginning of the Susan MacDougal trial. Remember her?

[Hoplite]

It now sounds like there is no evidence to support Clinton's cause for war.

And if you restrict yourself to the incompetent ramblings of the lie and deny brigade on FR's Balkans threads, you'll never be any much the wiser.

Take heed.

"And if you restrict yourself to the incompetent ramblings of the lie and deny brigade on FR's Balkans threads, you'll never be any much the wiser."

Are you implying that the article is wrong? That there is not a discrepancy between Clinton's justification for bombing and the UN findings? If so, is it the UN findings that are wrong? or the reporting of the UN findings?

[Hoplite]

Of course the article is wrong - over 5,000 bodies have been recovered since Milosevic was booted out from first Kosovo and then Serbia, and approximately 1,000 of those were exhumed from sites within Serbia, where they were safe from discovery until Milosevic's ouster.

As to the author of this little gem, take a look at his views on America.

Kinda speaks for itself, doesn't it?

[Pagey]

Really.I honestly had no idea that we did that.Point taken.

Clinton basically bombed an innocent country into dust to take a credible rape allegation against himself off the front pages of our newspapers.

[DannyTN]

"Kinda speaks for itself, doesn't it?"

Just like a sound bite often speaks for itself, but may not be at all what the person said. Where is the article that goes with the image?

[DannyTN]

So you claim 5000 bodies have been recovered the article claims UN figures are 2200 and that the US state department revised it's numbers down from 100,000 before the war to 10,000 after the war.

That's still a huge discrepancy. You just backed up the article instead of refuting it.

[DannyTN]

"Depleted Uranium is used in conventional armor piercing amunition. It's a standard practice by US forces. We've hosed Irag full of it too. That's just the way it goes. "

Isn't depleted Uranium also known as "lead". It's not very radioactive, it's "depleted".

[Hoplite]

Great - find where the State Dept said there were 100,000 bodies.

You wanted a discrepancy, you got one.

[uplandgame]

Would you please reveal your sources regarding those 5000 bodies exhumed in Kosovo?

I hope you will not try a fast one with a Refrigirator truck story.

Also, last time (today) I checked United Nations site, Milosevic has been accused by kangaroo court in Hague, based on command responsibility, for 327 deaths, including 40 deads from Racak fight. With all the heavy fighting between Yugo Army and KLA terrorists (1997-1999) number of killed in fighting appears to be much lower then recent reports from Iraq and Afghanistan.

Danny,

Here is the article you asked Hoplite to produce. I find WHEN CULTURES COLLIDE... an interesting read.

With all due respect, I find Hoplite only being interested in obfuscation and denial when it comes to Balkan.

[CyberAnt]

Okay everybody - do you now realize why the story about "no WMD" is circulating. It's just another "projection" technique in action - accuse other people of what you are doing (or have already done). This is the usual: "everybody does it" statement the dems always use.

I knew there was more to it than the fact the dems didn't have an issue - this is just cover-up of the x42 regime - AGAIN!!!

You first claimed the article was "lie and deny". Then you said the UN numbers were wrong. Then you said the Nato estimates were wrong. You are a moving target.

I think I found the discrepancy. It's name is "Hoplite".

The following website and the exerpt from that website cite the London Times and the Boston Globe referring to the NATO estimate of 100,000 killed. I verified that both the Boston Globe article and the NY Times article existed, but without paying couldn't read the full text. Nevertheless the free Times article excerpt has enough to know that the article is about war crimes inspectors being surprised about the number of killed Albanians.

The Times (London), November 2, 1999, Tuesday, Features, 553 words, Kosovo’s corpse count.

The Hague has recently offered an interesting prevarication for the 100,000 figure on NATO’s behalf:

[Quote From Boston Globe Starts Here]

[Graham T.] Blewitt [the deputy chief prosecutor for the International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia], said that the 100,000 figure of missing Kosovars was accurate when given, but that the vast majority of that number had fled Kosovo when Serb forces began a systematic campaign of ethnic cleansing after the NATO bombing began. He said tens of thousands of Kosovars had crossed over into Macedonia to stay with relatives or friends, but that there was no reliable system to account for refugees.
