>>why should we apologize for acting in our own interests?

You definitely should not. That was not the point. I was just pointing out that it was not a selfless act when CB gave saving Kuwait as a pro-Arab act.

>>Finally we acted, too late it's true, on behalf of Kosovo, where we also had no interests

As I recall, this was exactly when Ms Lewinsky's intimate affair with the cigar came to light and Clinton had to change the agenda. Very good timing for a selfless act, I would say :)
