Thank you, Neo! Just one follow-up question. Are these civilian deaths all a consequence of NATO bombing, or are they an estimate of all deaths from the conflict in general? If the latter (which I doubt), is there a breakdown of which deaths were due to what?
Oh, yes, and one more question. If this is all from NATO bombing, I presume it is from bombing of Kosovo as well as of Serbia proper. Right?
I KNEW I should have followed this whole Yugoslavia mess, instead of sticking my head under a pillow, hoping it would just all go away. The Russians screamed their heads off about the NATO operation at the time, but now they are citing it as justification for what they are doing in Chechnya. (And I don't know enough to know when they are scrambling the facts of the Yugoslav case and when they are not. That'll teach me!)

P.S. What on earth is a "broken pipe"? Just tried to send this, and got a message that I had a broken pipe. Why can't the computer geeks of the world speak a language the rest of us can understand? <gg> |
