Whatever the underlying reasons for attacking Serbia, I believe the bombing was precipitated by Serbian actions repressing the Kosovars. It is difficult or even impossible for air forces alone, however dominant. to protect civilians on the ground, but everyone understands that retaliation is effective even against heartless dictators -- as long as he is rational. Strikes against Serbian military forces can make the price Milosovic must pay for continued injury to the Kosovars unacceptable even to him. If he will accept destruction of his forces as the price of killing and expelling innocent people, he is deranged (as is Saddam in a similar situation.) In the face of the injuries Serbia will suffer in this attack, it is hard to argue that Milosovic is rational, or that those Serbian people who keep him on can be trusted to govern themselves.
