Uh, oh. Can't blame Wikipedia editors for scrubbing the 500,000, even from the current article. :-) I found the original New York Times source, and a correction states that the NYT article "...referred incorrectly [in November] to a State Department briefing on April 19. The department did not say that up to 500,000 Kosovar Albanians were missing and feared dead." (I'd be curious to see exactly what was reported in the NYT on April 19 or the following day.)

Clinton's calling it a Holocaust, though, and the estimate of 100,000 (instead of a few thousand) were bad enough, and do seem to support your thesis.

Interesting. Considering it is the NY Times, the question must then be asked whether the correction is for real or a cover after a phone call from the White House. Probably no way to know however.
