Not to mention the hundreds of mass graves that were never uncovered...

Yet... strangely... I never heard the calls "where are the mass graves, Mr. President" from the shrill anti-war movement. I wonder why...?

Well, my recollection was that that the Serb armor avoided damage because it stayed parked in camouflaged spots, and didn't move. Thus while it avoided damage, it was rendered ineffective. When Kosovar troop spotters finally got in country however, and spotted the sites, then the armor began to be flushed out, and wiped out. After a couple of incidents like that, Slobo folded his hand. He knew the jig was up.

So I think the article is errant, except for the bit perhaps that it offers up yet another example of Clark's pathological tendency to prevaricate.

What's your recollection Hop?

How unexpected. Newsweak managed to write this piece in May 2000 without mentioning clinton once. Clark lied. The military lied. Heavens forbid that clinton lied about that dirty war.

They also forgot to ask why Milosevitch decided to surrender. Basically it was because wesley clark was bombing the hell out of the civilian population, had destroyed all their transportation, factories, dams, and power supplies, and was ready to see the people of Belgrade freeze in the dark in midwinter. I wonder who instructed clark to bomb the TV station in Belgrade, to take one instance? Or the Chinese embassy?

That was back when Newsweak was anxious that al gore should win the coming election, and could care less about Wesley Clark. Gore had a clinton problem, so Newsweak would not want to make clinton look any worse than he already did. Needless to say, they would not publish this article bashing clark today, when the clintons are backing him as their stalking horse.

Clark is a nut! If the Dem's get a Dean/Clark ticket going in 2004 that would will be a new low, even for the Dem's.

If Cohen, Shelton and Clark were all telling the same lie,what are the integrity issues Shelton has with Clark?

The Blue Suiters in their little Electric Airplanes do not do interdiction, much less close air support. They have the best tankbuster [the Warthog] since the Stuka and they have systematically tried to send them all to the smelter at DM. Ask any Army infantry commander which he would rely on for close air support - cute little Blue Suiters in their cute little Electric Airplanes or Marines and squids in their grungy, clapped out F-18's flying off USS Boat at 0 dark thirty, tanking twice inbound. The Blue Suit bomber community [Buffs/B-1s/B-2s] is good and should be retained. But their tacair community has been a total farce and a gigantic money pit since the 60's. See, e.g., The Red Baron Report. The mission in which they fancy themselves expert has not existed since WWII and, since WWII, they have proven themselves to be unwilling and/or incapable of performing the missions assigned, namely, air to mud right here and right now. Air Farce tacair is an ongoing embarrassment and should be disbanded. As before, the Nav and the Marine Corps are the most effective [and cost effective] tactical/regional warriors of the 21st century. And in the event of a confrontation on the strategic level, once again the Navy's capabilities are more effective and reliable than the air force's, by orders of magnitude. [Does anyone think the Air Farce's missile silos scare the wacko mainland chicoms?] But for those selfsame chicom wackos, the USN boomers are another matter - believe it.

The risk is that policymakers and politicians will become even more wedded to myths like "surgical strikes."

Only if we elect simps like algore. Thank goodness he's been relegated to the recycle bin of history! I pray al's friends join him there.

Thanks to God for President Bush and Donald Rumsfeld.
