I don't agree. I think NATO wanted a facelift (a raison d'etre) after the demise of the USSR. Clinton was given bad advice (again); it was expected, that after a few days of fairly cheap and safe and bombing, Milosevich would give in and would stop ethnic cleansing and the trophy could have been presented for the NATO 50th anniversary. After the spectacular failure of this strategy NATO just wouldn't stand the public humiliation of admitting an enormous mistake. They chose rather the abadonment of the kosovar people and the total destruction of the economy/infrastructure of Serbia, Kosovo and the surrounding countries, such as Hungary. This is nothing to do with any humanitarianism or idealism. This is the same old powergame that couldn't care less about the people used as pawns. And it goes on. Milosevich was ready to accept international forces from the beginning, he may be a chauvinist monster, but not stupid, he knows that such a force could have saved those 10% serb population and the souverainity over Kosovo, albeit with the re-instatement of the pre 1989 autonomy. NATO insists on having US and UK troups being part of these international occupying forces, which is ludicrous. It is obvious that the serb insane paramilitary forces would play partisan revenge games and Milosevich wouldn't be able to contain them if US and UK forces are employed. They are going on playing the stupid child games with no rationality or humanity. Unless NATO wants an independent Kosovo with KLA lead - which they don't - they will have to behave in a mature way and accept a deal with forces of say, France, Italy, China or whatever keeping the peace in Kosovo. The only people to get rid off Milosevich are the yugoslave opposition. The US was not voted to be world gendarme. They are spectacularily impotent in that role, given their military might, thankfully. Now NATO will have to pack up and give the peacekeeping force and legitimacy with the usurped power back to the UN, who should have the power to intervene to all internationally defined violation of human rights. With no veto-power for anyone. I hope. .... >A nti-Americanism is both rancorous and reactionary. > Deprived of an alternative international prospective, anti-Americanism borders > on fascism.
