Bosco, OT?

Erdman says, "What we are doing in Yugoslavia today indicates how much the old mind set still prevails in our foreign policy establishment. We are fighting yesterday's war."

Selected this to highlight from Erdman's article. Newsweek piece puts the Yugoslavian action on Clinton and Albright. Says Milosevic was willing to sign an agreement for unarmed NATO peace keeping troops to occupy Kosovo in October, but Clinton declined because he didn't want to have troops there while the impeachement hearings were going on. Albright's rhetoric made Milosevic believe USA was siding with the KLA. All of this unnecessary and turning into a big disaster - the usual result of military action instead of diplomacy.

FWIW,
Ron
