Ponder this: If Racak was a massacre, why did so many of the "victims" have gunpowder residue on their forearms, consistent with having discharged weapons of their own? And why were there no women or children in the vicinity when this happened?

And just to clear up a point of confusion, we were talking about the bombing of Serbia on this thread, not the bombing of the Bosnian Serbs.

I have pondered that - and if you had, you'd know that those results were based upon paraffin tests that gave a positive result in the presence of chemicals found in ammonia based fertilizers or cigarette smoke, which is why the test used by the Serbs and Belorussians haven't been used in the West since the late 1960's.

Sorry, dude - if you support the Serbian version of events at Racak, you're either a dupe or a liar.

Best of luck to ya in rectifying your situation.

discussion of the Racak Firefight going on here.....

inquest.....rather than beating around the bush with Hoplite (the sole defender of Clinton's Foreign Policy left on FR)........why don't you ask him

....At the ICTY, the KLA commander at Racak testified he gangpressed a few dozen villager into fighting that day including elderly pensioners....isn't it likely that some of these human shields may have been killed by the KLA when they refused to fight ?

Also Remind Hoplite that Racak was a ANTI-KLA village.
