The U.S. has told the U.N. not to interfere and try to find peace in Kosovo. washtimes.com So much for any pretense of U.S. interest in international law. Has anybody heard any reports of the World Court hearing? It's been amazingly undercovered.

THE WASHINGTON POST - May 16, 1999 - OUTLOOK Section LESSONS OF HISTORY CAN MISINFORM FOREIGN POLICY - << In deciding to seek what amounted to an international protectorate for Kosovo, Albright and her aides have sought to apply the lessons of Bosnia. Their outline settlement for Kosovo, which was unveiled at the peace conference in Rambouillet, France, in February, was based on the 1995 Dayton agreement that put an end to the Bosnian war. There was a major difference, however. This time around, the warring parties (and in particular the Serbs) would not be permitted to haggle over the terms of the agreement. If they refused America's offer, they would be bombed. What the United States was demanding, in the phrase of an aide close to Albright, was the complete "capitulation" of Yugoslav President Slobodan Milosevic. >> N.B. So much for "humanitarian" reasons and the rest of US/ UK propaganda. Looks like Maddie NotSoBright will walk the plank down to the sharks circling in the water.
