Genius,

Here is the timeline of events, per CNN:

cnn.com

March 24 -- NATO launches airstrikes.
[Without UN endorsement]

[Bombing continues for over 2 months]
May 27 -- The United Nations' International Criminal Tribunal for former Yugoslavia announces indictment of Milosevic as a war criminal.

May 31 -- Belgrade say it agrees to the principles of the G-8's plan. The Western allies remain skeptical.

June 3 -- The Serbian parliament approves the G-8's peace plan. Milosevic reportedly also votes in favor of the plan.

June 9 -- Yugoslav and NATO generals sign an agreement on the withdrawal of Serb troops from Kosovo, following a marathon session of intense talks near the Yugoslav-Macedonian border. Once it is verified that the pullout has begun, NATO airstrikes will be suspended.

[The use of force (illegal per UN) is over]

June 10 -- Yugoslavia begins the process of withdrawing its security forces from Kosovo. NATO announces that it has suspended the bombing campaign, and the U.N. Security Council formally ratifies the negotiated peace proposal.
[UN approves post war settlement on this day]

I gave you numerous opportunities, dropped numerous hints so that you could make a graceful exit. And you are still not getting it.

You want to play games, then play with your kids but stay out of my way.

I kind of feel bad about beating on an intellectual midget. Sorry about intruding into your make-believe world.

Joe
