There was room for disagreement on the Kosovo intervention.
If you hate Christians and want to support drug-dealing Islamic terrorists—as Hanson, apparently, does—then you had every reason to support the Kosovo Albanians, but even Mad Albright, after a testosterone injection, was never silly enough to suggest that Milosevic was going to send his tanks across Hungary, through Austria, and on to Berlin! Much less, that he had a delivery system that could rain chemical death on the American heartland.
As an "historian," Hanson should know that Albright's claim at Rambouillet was that Milosevic had carried out massacres of Albanian civilians, claims that have been largely debunked. No one ever suggested that he posed a threat either to Western Europe or the United States. In fact, the Europeans dragged their heels at Rambouillet, not because they liked Milosevic or because they were cowards, but because they did not fully believe Albright's lies, and because they disliked the idea of NATO bombing a European city that had suffered so much in two world wars. Hanson makes fun of the idea that Orthodox Christians were angered by the bombing, but they were, and they are still angry, if anybody will take the trouble to ask them. None of these facts—the location of Kosovo, Albright's lies, the reaction of the Orthodox—is a secret.
I used to admire Hanson's work on ancient history, but looking at his uninformed pontifications on European affairs, I would not trust his judgment on the time of day without checking my own watch. The moral quirk that encouraged him to contemplate the slaughter of innocent civilians with glee has led to an intellectual twist that blinds him to facts. His contempt for humanity leads to his contempt for truth. He's perfect for National Review Online.
