Clinton's Kosovo Whopper
Accuracy in Media ^ | September 27, 2006 | Cliff Kincaid

Posted on 09/27/2006 9:38:58 PM PDT by Mount Athos

Of all the whoppers told by former President Clinton in his Chris Wallace interview, perhaps the most outrageous was his claim that he was involved in "trying to stop a genocide in Kosovo..." In fact, Clinton's bombing of the former Yugoslavia killed more people than died in this "genocide." And his policy benefited Osama bin Laden and the global Jihad.

In the year before the bombing, some 2,000 people had been killed in a civil war in Kosovo. A conservative estimate is that 6,000 were killed by U.S. and NATO bombs.

It's strange as well that Clinton complained to Wallace about the "neocons" attacking him when many of the same neocons in 1999 supported Clinton's war on Yugoslavia. The war was never approved by the U.N. or the U.S. Congress, and in fact violated the War Powers Act. The main beneficiary of the intervention was a Muslim terrorist group, the Kosovo Liberation Army (KLA), with links to bin Laden, who had declared war on America in 1996, bombed our embassies in Africa in 1998, and would later, of course, orchestrate 9/11.

When former CIA official Michael Scheuer says that the Clinton Administration "had eight to ten chances" to kill bin Laden and "they refused to try," he is making a statement that goes far beyond acknowledging Clinton Administration incompetence or a lack of will. The fact is that Clinton had a pro-Muslim foreign policy that actually benefited bin Laden and facilitated 9/11. Most Republicans don't mention this because too many of them were duped into backing Clinton's misguided policy in Kosovo. President Bush, then a candidate, even backed U.S. military intervention there through NATO.

[...] It is noteworthy that the CIA issued a January 2000 report that essentially whitewashed the nature of the KLA and claimed it was pro-American.

"I will give the administration credit for smoking the Chinese Embassy on a B2 run."

Next time clinton asks for a receipt for high tech secrets, maybe the chicoms will give him one...

Most appropriate picture of Clinton ever. He's a pathological liar.

his sources are Doctor Balls. He testified at the Hague against Milosevic and got rave reviews in the press.

Unfortunately the reality was the esteemed Doc was a joke. No court in the world accepts his research and even the judges pointed out the flimsy nature of it.

But to our Serbophobes, a guy who gets scraps of paper from a disused Albanian border post which he doesn't understand ( Dr. Ball doesn't understand Albanian and at the trial, Milosevic had to translate to him what the Albanian guard's notes actually said )is Einstein.

Me? I blame the dumbing down of education.

I have to laugh, Hoplite had to jump all over this because this puts his nads in the ringer, his hero Clinton is finally getting recognized for the damage he's caused so he has to spend his undue energy on spin control. This was hilarious!

May I remind everyone of An Open Letter to General Michael Short which said it all as far back as 1999?

Kosovo was a war between drug lords.. Albania, Serbia, Kosovo and more, this story is still untold.. The drug lords are global not area dependant.. Of course, Mexico is controlled by drug cartels... Mexico has no government.. same probably is true of Lebanon/Syria too..

Mena, Arkansaw was the tip of an iceberg, I think..

Anyway, don't worry about Hoplite on Kosovo. He bases all his brilliant knowledge on Dr. Ball's work.

It's so EMBARRASSING. REALLY RALLY AWFUL.

Here are the transcripts.

Read and Wince.

http://www.un.org/icty/transe54/020313ED.htm

( From Page 2140 )

( Milosevic's cross examination begins on page 2209 )

http://www.un.org/icty/transe54/020314IT.htm

Cringe makingly awful.

The guy was a non existent joke before, his testifying made his name, but just read the crap.

I MEAN , READ THE TRANSCRIPTS. THE PAIN, OH THE PAIN.

If this is science, then my high school chemistry project IS equivalent to Marie Curie's research.

Why are you on FreeRepublic? The "sources" you cite are all HARD LEFT-WING propaganda groups. FReepers should beware of anything you cite as "facts" or "sources".

After years of observing the actions of the particular Dhimmi that you ask this of, I can only surmise that he's here to pick up rugged, conservative men.

Either support your comments or retract them.

Seeing this posted by you, of all people, is the funniest damn thing I've seen all year! LOL, the things that come out of your mouth!

And let's not discuss what goes in, ok toothless dhimmi?
