nuke, FYI, Three Croatian Generals were just indicted into the War Criminals Hall of Fame for the acts of "ethnic cleansing", "summary executions", and indescriminate shelling of civilians during the Croatian Civil War where several hundred thousand Serbs were "cleansed", driven from their homes, whatever, back in 1995. Bill Clinton actually had a hand in this. He brokered a deal with Croatian President Franjo Tudjman (an indicted war criminal) and shipped through Croatia, 200 million dollars worth of weapons (in violation of a UN and Congressional Arms Embargo) to the Croats and Bosnian Muslims so that they could destroy the Serb rebel armies in Bosnia and Croatia. Clinton never even bothered to tell Congress that he was doing this. The guy is an arrogant son of a bitch. That war also resulted in about 700,000 Serb refugees landing in Serbia. This is probably one reason why they decided to end the trouble in Kosovo and kick out the Muslims. The whole situation is a mess and the actions of NATO are only making it worse... -John

<<If I remember right, Krajina was more a purely military engagement, one of the few times modern equipped military forces have faced each other since warfare started in the Balkans eight years ago.>> Serbia still hosts 500,000 serbian refugees from that "purely militarty engagement". There are only 40,000 serbian troops in Kosovo, facing 20,000 (maybe more by now) KLA troops. And make no mistakes, those KLA characters are armed to their teeth by Iranians, and I wonder who else. They even have tanks, that they have captured during one of their raids on serbian military base a couple years ago. How do you characterze this engagement?
