It was the Russians that was willing to escalate the war in Kosovo into a global war and Clark wanted to go along with it if it wasn't for Jackson you and I most likely would be dead right now.
The Russians launched their inter fleet out of the Black sea on highest alert to confront our ships in the Mediterranean. Their strategic nuclear command was at their highest alert with planes in the air to hit us.
I'm afraid that we are the ones provoking the Russians.....we have been escalating Kosovo into an ethnic cess pool. We have been supporting the Muh and KLA from the beginning; lying our way; "all the way" to targeting the Russian states by setting a precedence of an individual state declaring Independence and getting it by overriding the 1244.....Once we chip away at the Kosovo Indep. we will allow the Albanian terrorist to target south presevo, Macedonia, North Mitrovica....on our merry way to the Baltic states......I told many and wrote much while in the OSCE that Russia and China would veto any change to the 1244 that would give Kosovo independence....
We wanted to escalate the war in Kosovo....but, by proxy...We stirred up trouble in Bosnia....the Serbs responded; heavy handed, granted. we lied about the number of massacres in Kosovo and the story goes on........

COHEN TEACHES CLARK WHO’S “BOSS”
The cagey candidate Clark never uses the word “FIRED” on the campaign trail because it might cause voters to think twice about letting him anywhere near the nuclear button.
Respected columnist Jim Brunelle of the Portland (Me.) PRESS HERALD spelled it out under the headline “WESLEY CLARK WENT TOE-TO-TOE WITH BILL COHEN AND LOST HIS JOB.”
Brunelle, who has built up many contacts and sources over the years, had a direct line into Cohen’s office and knew what the former secretary of defense had to do to reign in his “loose cannon” general.
“Clark sprang to media prominence as supreme allied commander of NATO forces overseeing the air war in Yugoslavia, to halt ethnic cleansing in Kosovo,” Brunelle wrote. “The Pentagon is said to have been upset by what was regarded as loose-cannon behavior by the general, especially in one diplomatically sensitive incident.
“As the war wound down, a small contingent of Russian troops was reported to be rushing toward the Pristina airfield in Kosovo with the intention of occupying the facility.
“Clark called for an airborne assault to stop the Russians, an order that British Gen. Michael Jackson, head of the international force responsible, refused to obey. Jackson reportedly told (Clark) ‘Sir I am NOT starting World War III for you!’
“When all this came out later, Clark insisted the idea for engaging the Russians in a risky military showdown actually originated in Washington, an assertion that did not endear him to his critics.”
Brunelle wrote that “three months before he was scheduled to step down as allied commander, the Pentagon announced Clark was retiring early. The general, it was said, was furious, but helpless to prevent his ouster.”
