You bet it is. The "war" was over three days after it started. The rest is just face saving.

<< If these alleged attrocities are being committed, then I don't see how dropping a bomb from 15,000 feet on a Yugo car factory will prevent any of these alleged tragedies. >>

It wasn't "one" bomb from 15,000 feet. NATO freedom fighters flew 500 missions Sunday. Roads, bridges, airports, communications centers, troop barracks, fuel depots, troops, tanks.

This is going to show that an air war can be highly successful in destroying a radical country's ability to make war. It will eventually prevent the horrors being done by Serb Military Police, as they run out of food and ammunitions and tanks and are killed by the cluster bombs. And, it will stop them from doing it again.

Destroying the YUGO car factory avenged an injustice done against American car owners! <g>

<< This bombing campaign is a "feigned sympathy" move by the west. A half-ass operation that is analogous to Vietnam. >>

If this is true, then I guess that the Serb Military police and citizens have little to worry about.
