WEAK CASE AGAINST MILOSEVIC HAS HAGUE 'IN PANIC'

The Ottawa Citizen ^ | 29 August 2004 | Bruce Garvey

I'd read they were mostly men of military age. Do you know if that is false?

[Hoplite]

And you're really good at asking questions which have already been answered, as if repetition could erase the answers given the last time the questions were asked.

Face it, DTA, the only way you and your friends on this thread can maintain any semblance of rationality is to ignore the evidence that has been compiled regarding Milosevic's crimes in Kosovo.

[FormerLib]

So Hoppy's a Kerry-boy, go figure.

[Frumious Bandersnatch]

I have no idea of whether Milosevic is one of the good guys or not. But I've been so disgusted with the conduct of his tribunal, that I say if he is not one of the good guys, he is at least much better than those accusing him.

[jpl]

So, is it fair to say that Kosovo was a war initiated based on false pretenses? Did Bill Clinton lie while good men died?

[Hoplite]

I'd read they were mostly men of military age. Do you know if that is false?

Given that the Serbs were targeting military age males, I don't see why it would be.

The 2001 HRW report "Under Orders, War Crimes in Kosovo" has an attempt at making a statistical analysis of the ages of those executed: of 3,543 known victims of execution, 630 ages were obtained. Of those, 530 were males, and their ages break down as follows:

I'm not sure if better information on the ages of the victims has surfaced in the subsequent 3 years, but if you want it, there's nothing to stop you looking for it.

[Hoplite]

So Hoppy's a Kerry-boy, go figure.

Based upon what? My absence from the crowd jostling for kneeling space before the altar of Slobo?

Read it and weep, I'm not the only one who views you and yours with contempt and disdain, it's United States Foreign policy under President Bush you have a problem with.

Had Bob Dole been elected, you and yours would be over on DU right now bitching about exactly the same things you're whining about right now, save for aiming your barbs at Dole and Bush instead of Clinton and Kerry.

[ehoxha]

John Hicks.................

[ehoxha]

Peddling the same old tired mis-information aren't we ?

You gotta get used to the fact that Clinton's lies have been discredited so many times that no one on FR believes them.

Fact is that your Bosnian buddies gave OBL citizenship, John Hicks thought your KLA partners were on the same side as the Taliban.

[kennedy]

Clinton lied and people died.

[CPC]

ahem...is not this the number or CLOSE TO the number I have been saying that nobody in the Hague or OSCE, etc wants to hear and has been suppressed? 5,080

But, my numbers were slightly higher, but not by much...

And...............who has been ahem..right with the information...smack and wack! darn i'm right on with the information, aint I? word, to your mutha...

3 weeks and closing to the SCC!

[CPC]

read post #50

[CPC]

correction...51! my mistake.

[CPC]

The "un"official numbers are, as I repeat them AGAIN

Albanian:: 3685 = .002% of population (1.890.000 albanian sources).
Serbian:: 2962 = .014% of population.(210.000 albanian sources)

5,080 is the number these Canadians are giving...sound eerily close to my numbers? PLUS, my numbers are higher..woooooohhh

[Jane_N]

"but we'd do it again in a heartbeat if the situation repeated itself."

What exactly do you mean? You'ld bomb Serbia again "in a heartbeat if the situation repeated itself"? Just to want to be clear on my understanding of your comment.

[Hoplite]

I mean if Serbia elects Tomislav Nikolic and starts ethnically cleansing Vojvodina's Hungarian minority for want of anybody else to target, we'll use military coersion to force him to stop.

My statement was in plain English, Jane. I shouldn't have to repeat myself, just like we shouldn't have had to repeat Bush the Elder's warning (in vain) last time.

[Freee-dame]

bttt

[Jane_N]

Actually you aren't repeating yourself (for that you would need to say exactly the same thing you said previously), instead you are being more specific which is what I wanted you to be. Thank you.

[A. Pole]

This is interesting. If Milosevic gets off the hook, then what?

They can always convict Bobby Fischer. He broke the sanctions by playing chess in Serbia. This is a war crime.

[A. Pole]

In fact, because of our intervention, the only ethnic cleansing was that of the Christians in Kosovo.

Actually the biggest ethnic cleaning and MASSACRE took place in Serbian Krajina (Bosnia and Croatia). The whole country was destroyed with help of NATO - NATO planes were bombing columns of refugees as well.

And it is easy to prove - everyone can go to Croatia and see deserted/bombed towns and villages.
