Yugoslavia Amid the Maelstrom:

NATO’s bland assertions seemed obscene. Bombing the Chinese embassy was an “accident,” and therefore excusable. This carried with it the unspoken assumption that bombing another building and killing Yugoslav civilians would be acceptable. The destruction of Hotel Yugoslavia and the Usce Business Center was also acceptable, because these somehow fell into the all-inclusive category of “military targets.” Many people in the West were completely indifferent to the death and destruction carried out in their names. All of NATO’s claims were accepted without examination or questioning. The United States, it is assumed, has an inherent right to invade or bomb another country and to trample international law underfoot. In this context, I found it poignant when we saw a billboard in Belgrade, which read: “They believe in bombs. We believe in God.”
