Wow...that is powerful analysis by the general. Do you think Bush’s call for Kosovar independence has something to do with the recent saber rattling by Putin?
American support to Islamofascist terrorists in Kosovo predates both G.W. Bush and Putin and has to be assessed in that context.
The plan can be traced back to 1948. No wonder that son of the CIA man in charge of Operation Fiend is W's envoy for Kosovo problem today.All in the family.
The story how Putin came to power is interesting. Boris Yeltsin, a drunken sailor was follower of U.S.-set policies. The majority of Russian people were happy that Cold War is over, and that America won. They loved everything American and hoped that American dream will come to their neighborhood anytime soon. All this changed overnight with Clinton's mauling of Serbia in 1999. The American actions were realisation of what Communist Propaganda cliches of what America supposedly is - imperialist, vile and criminal.
Russians forgot their love affair with America overnight. The bombing of Serbian civilian targets reminded them of Hitler's actions in Russia during WWII. And this is living memory in Russia. American 'free media' reminded them of Communist Propaganda and Hitler's propaganda. They got fed up. They woke up from their American dream into American reality.
The hardliners of former KGB sensed the opportunity. They did not have to make a coup to install one of their own -Putin came to power on the wave of public dissent with American actions.
Instead of drunken sailor Yeltsin, sly and competent Putin and his shadow aides came to power.
The American Cold war victory was squandered over Kosovo. The billions of research (shot down F-117a) ended in Chicom hands. And propaganda advantage of American tecnological invincibility was lost. On other flashpoints the American actions were not overlooked. India went nuclear in response.
And the question is, for what? For 4000 aq. mi. of landlocked swath of hellhole? It must be the most valuable piece of hell hole on the face of the Earth.
When W came to the office, Putin was already in power and Kosovo occupied by NATO was a mess already.
Since 2001, State Department did not change Clinton's policy of support to Islamofascist terrorists. Various National Guard outfits trained Albanian terrorists, even after it was found that they engage in terrorist activities.
The question in this case is not who, what, when, where, it is all documented, the question is - why?
The only logical explanation is that Kosovo is a fuse of large scale war, ready to be detonated in appropriate moment.
Everything else is illogical, immoral and outright evil.
