I understand the guy is claiming he only said they were "missing". But Nato and Clinton used his number to say they were "missing and may have been murdered". The impression given to the public at the time by Clinton and NATO officials was of a massacre. And nobody corrected it.

Well they were wrong! There was not 100,000 murdered. There was not 10,000 murdered.

If you'll recall, we were thinking upwards of 7,000 people died in the WTC attacks - figure you'll be using the same line of argument you're using here in that case any time soon?

As better information became available, the number was revised down - just as happened in Kosovo.

Why is this so hard for you to grasp? You comment to Destro that you're afraid of being 'lefted', but you've climbed into bed with the Serbian Socialist Party and all it's associated scum on this one.

Think about it.

In the meantime, if you wish to pursue this, either find a quote supporting what the original article on this thread puts forth, or acknowledge the author is misrepresenting the facts.

And try to make that an original quote - not something you dredge up from the World Socialist Web Site or some other such nonsense, Ok?
