Well, you'd better talk to your cronies who are saying that BECAUSE the Chinese were in there....WE BOMBED IT.....basically an act of war against China?.....that's BS....you're reason....complete failure of our "intelligence" community (whom were relying on now) IS the reason....you're right....fancy that. Rereading your post however....
you say "The bombing of the Chinese embassy was certainly on purpose." I presume you meant the OPPOSITE
Better talk to St Thomas of the Bomb.....

I really don't believe the outdated map story. I can't remember where I read it, but there was a very convincing article that said the Chinese were actually helping Milosevich with the communication facilities at the embassy since his had been destroyed and that's why we bombed it. I find that more plausible than the outdated map story and would actually prefer it to be true, since it would show our intelligence was really on top of things. Nobody here really knows, so it is pointless to argue about it a whole lot.
