March 1999 secretary of State Madeleine (Halfbrite) Albright invited terrorist KLA political leader Hashim Thaqi, who heads an underground provisional government within Kosovo, to Washington after his movement signed the U.S. drafted ultimatum called the Rambouillet International Peace Plan for the province. Also, it was revealed by unidentified sources with the NATO high command, that General Wesley Clark flew secretly to France during the talks in February to brief Thaqi on NATO's plans for ensuring security in the province after a peace accord is forced on the parties. In a tremendous breach of security, KLA leaders were among Kosovo peace delegates treated to a visit to alliance military headquarters in Mons, Belgium, in mid-March.
NATO's supreme' commander, U.S. Army Gen. Wesley Clark, summoned before a congressional committee to report on Kosovo. The General exhibits his prima donna mentality as aids dust off his chair, adjust the lighting and microphone before Wesley makes his grand entrance. He reports that Serb forces appear poised to resume fighting in Kosovo on a "very large scale" if there is no peace agreement.
July 27, 1999 - General Wesley Clark was abruptly and unexpectedly told that his tenure as the NATO commander would be terminated as of April 2000. Air Force General Joseph Ralston will replace Clark. As more of the truth concerning the NATO assault against Yugoslavia becomes known, it becomes clearer that the war was terribly managed (and a total failure as policy).
General Wesley K. Clark - Supreme Allied Commander of NATO, described by those in the know as a vain, pompous, 'brown-noser.' Clinton's hand picked man for NATO duty in spite of the fact that his promotion had to be "arranged" by letting him win the Nevada 'war games' necessary for his promotion. "The poster child for everything that is wrong with the 'GO (general officer) corps'" is how one military career officer described him.
Clark's ONLY qualification - He's from Arkansas and a 'Friend of Bill' during the Mena years.
