Back then (1999) I took part in an anti-intervention demonstration in Washington, D.C. Although I was completely soured by the way the left hijacked the demonstartion for their own purposes, I did meet and get to talk to a number of Serbian-Americans. Their anguish that their adopted country was doing this to their homeland was real and heart rending. I recall one man in particular. He was about my father's age, and he was holding a sign on which he proclaimed to be an ex-Partisan who had taken part in one of the rescue operations mentioned in the article above. "60 years ago, I helped save hundreds of American airmen's lives. Why are you bombing my grandchildren?" he asked me. I had no answer.

We may have choosen the wrong side in that fight. We may have been wrong to have chosen sides at all.

It was done under Clinton's presidency, which means no thought went into it.
