Graystone, What is the root of your personal hatred of Slobodon Milosevic? As far as killers go, he ain't nothing compared to Jiang Zemin of China or Boris Yeltsin of Russia. Jiang was the major of Bejing during the student democracy movement in Tianimen Plaza and he personally helped coordinate the Army's destruction of the students where an estimated 2,000 peaceful protesters were murdered in one night. Now the guy is the toast of the town in Washington. Clinton loves the guy. Consider Boris Yeltsin. Not only did he dismember his own Parliment with tanks, but brutally supressed an ethnic liberation movement in Chechnya. That civil war is believed to have destroyed about 100,000 people, mostly muslims. Now here you have Slobodon Milosevic, a guy who was trying to stop a guerilla war in a province of his nation of Yugoslavia during which only 2,000 people had died (of which 40% were Serbs), suddenly he become enemy of the state #1. Now he is an indicted war criminal with a 5 million dollar reward for his capture. Go figure. -John
