The very words genocide, slaughter, mass graves are repulsive. But on the flip-side, the Clinton administration bungled it big time by bombing the Serbs into submission. True, the Serbs are bad actors. However, the Serbs should have instead, been sternly warned, and then let them finish booting the Muslims out of the Balkans...all the way out. The Americans simply don't understand the long, hard, deep feelings of the people in that region of the world, that stemmed from the invasion by the Ottoman Empire. Unimaginable atrocities were committed against the Serbs and Croatians for centuries by the Turks. And yes, now with the help of Clinton and NATO, Al Qaeda and terrorism will have a big foothold in Europe. With all the evil events that have transpired, It just doesn't make sense!

Yet you'll never hear a leftist complain that Clinton purposely bombed innocent Serbian civilians - he personally selected the targets, no less (remember his micromanagement of that campaign?) - even though that is by the most basic, straightforward definition a war crime.

Ottoman empire aside, in more recent history, the Muslimes eagerly assisted the Nazis in the killing of over one million Serbs in WW II.

Please. Were it not for Arkan and his boys sweeping through Eastern Bosnia the foreign jihadists would never have flocked to the Balkans in the first place. This "we're fighting radical Islam" story was first pitched by the Serbs during the 92-95 war and didn't sell very well for obvious reasons (ie Bosnians aren't radicals). Today they're trying again to a slightly more receptive US audience.

Your right, It just doesn't make sense unless your George Soros.

In an effort to help the process along, Mr. Berger announced the United States is making good on Mr. Clinton's pledge to set up a fund to promote new business development, expansion and privatization.

The 150-million dollar Southeast Europe Equity Fund will be financed by the Overseas Private Investment Corporation and managed by a company run by American philanthropist and businessman George Soros.

The fund will serve Albania, Bulgaria, Bosnia, Croatia, the former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia, Romania, Slovenia, Montenegro and Turkey - what the White House calls an emerging consumer market of 112 million people.

While acknowledging that the rebuilding effort has been slow in the region, and that ethnic tensions remain, National Security Advisor Berger says there has been some progress toward overcoming the legacy of war.

It all make perfect sense to me. Power Is the Greatest Aphrodisiac of Them All. I'm talking about Air Power, it's a wonderful thing. Without airpower you can't win wars.

Soros had American/Nato via Clinton and Burger. Solbo had no chance againt the western press and Nato.

No KLA Maybe No 9-11
