Wesley Clark - Rat and former General
Is Weasly still around and shooting off his mouth?
Some old soldiers never fade away.
The best thing about this article is Clark is retired and he is former.
Weaselly Clark auditions for a national security job in the Xiden administration!
“NATO bombed strategic economic and societal targets, such as bridges, military facilities, official government facilities, and factories, using long-range cruise missiles to hit heavily defended targets, such as strategic installations in Belgrade and Pristina.
The NATO air forces also targeted infrastructure, such as power plants...water-processing plants and the state-owned broadcaster, causing much environmental and economic damage throughout Yugoslavia.”

Wesley Clark = Clinton toady

A no-fly zone?
Is this jackass trying to start a war?
Singer James Blunt ‘prevented World War III’
Ahh Yes! Rush’s apt description of an incompetent peacock General. if memory serves, he was the General in charge of NATO who damn near started WW3.
I’m so sure the Japanese cared who owned the airspace over Pearl Harbor in 1941.
Wesley Clark mr “fire at the Russians at Pristina”.
He remains a moron.
The end of Putin is a bit strong. Kim Il-sung invaded South Korea in 1950. The invasion destroyed his army and required Chinese intervention to fight the US to a draw. He lived to a ripe old age, killing any internal rivals who got in his way. And Kim was a Russian puppet selected for his subservience, not his ability.
Then there’s the case of Saddam Hussein, who started two failed land grabs, against Iran and Kuwait. He survived in office until the US invaded Iraq. And even then, he remained in charge of Baathist/Islamist insurgents until the US pulled him out of his hiding place.
No one handed Putin his job. He clawed his way to power. He knows a thing or two about how to appoint men he can trust with his life to key positions and keep them from conspiring against him individually or in collusion with each other. If he loses and withdraws from Ukraine, he will likely continue to rule Russia until the end of his natural life just like his North Korean counterpart.
Look at Maduro and Gaddafi. They tanked their countries’ economies despite tremendous amounts of oil resources. Gaddafi invaded Chad, lost and took huge losses in men and equipment. It took foreign intervention/invasion to remove one of them. Look at Mugabe. Only personal infirmity in the form of senility removed him from office.
Weaseley Barf weighs in...
A declaration of a no-fly zone by NATO is a declaration of war with a nuclear power. This is madness.
NATO cannot enforce a no fly zone in Ukraine without killing Russians in the Ukraine and in Russia itself if it hopes to shut down Russian radar defenses and anti-aircraft missiles. If NATO tries this it invites disaster.
“Blunt, who was a 25-year-old cavalry officer at the time”
Smart youngster!
Yes he was. At the time he was Supreme Allied Commander Europe.
I favor a lot of economic sanctions on Russia, it’s various oligarchs including putin, and fully supplying the Ukrainian military. But I don’t support US troops pulling any triggers or pressing any buttons. That is a dangerous red line that should not be crossed.
He's pretty cavalier with the lives of the billions of people who could get nuked.
Of course, it would take the wind out of the sail of the Climate Change crowd. Not much man-made greenhouse gases during a Stone Age.
