Firstly, your initial failing is in the Hitler - Milosevic analogies; which are no doubt media induced. We cannot try/convict an entire nation based on "what we think in the worst case would happen". If that is the case we will be bombing half the world at this moment. There is no evidence to support the fact that he would invade any other nations around Yugoslavia. If you would like an analogy I suggest you compare Russia now with pre-WWII Germany. Opposition parties and the public are united against the U.S. and NATO. A return to power for an opposition party that promises Russia will return to "world super power status" will be sure to win ; does that remind you of anything? It should remind you of Germany preWWII, and Hitler's campaign. In effect in the month of bombing we have re-ignited the cold war.

As I stated, Rambouillet is a pro-Kosovo Albanian agreement. It calls for 30,000 NATO troops to occupy Kosovo, and more dangerously it calls for a referendum in 3 years that would allow Kosovo to separate from Yugoslavia. Those are the two key points that no sane ruler of a sovereign nation would accept.

Pat Buchanan in this situation is right. We shouldn't be involved in Kosovo because it is not in our national-interest. Your analogy of Buchanan expelling Latino's if he gains power is a joke and clearly demonstrates your irrational thought process.
