McCain blast from the past.
“In April of that year, three weeks after the bombing commenced, he announced that the US is in danger of losing the war to the Serbian Army which has “antiquated machinery” and “absolutely no military air power”, if massive strategic air attacks are not initiated. “Attacks on any infrastructure target must not be prevented. We all regret civilian losses, as well as our own, but they cannot be avoided,” he said.
During the pre-election campaign in February 2000 at a meeting in Manhatten, John McCain asked for the release of all Albanian prisoners in the prisons of Serbia proper, and a year later he used his influence to ask the administration for an urgent investigation into the killing of the brothers Bitici who were taken from prison and killed in the police training center in Petrovo Selo in eastern Serbia. This February 5 the senator held another meeting in Manhattan and in the public there was a visible Albanian flag.”
