Can I ask a question? Where was the media's concern about civilian casualties during Clarke's war on Serbia? We bombed a country fighting a muslem terrorist group for 78 days and killed anywhere between 500 to 3000 civilians depending on who you believe. But not only that we took out their water, electricity, and civilian infrastructure and caused thousands of deaths as a result. Where were the "peace" protestors? Where was Susan Sarandon? Since General's Clarke war almost all Serbs, Gypsies, Turks, and other ethnic groups hhave been driven out of Kosovo and reside in squalid refugee camps. No media outcry about that? Milosevic was the "Hitler" then and the media bought and swallowed it. Anyone else remember the cheerleading of the media during that war? It was shameful. It was the first war I had ever seen the networks actually support. But hey- Clinton was President. Doesn't that just tell all?

not only that .. damage assessment afterwards indicated that many military targets were decoys. imagine 78 days of Times front-page articles highlighting and questioning that - ooops never happened. oh well.

The civilian casualties in Iraq will be higher it appears now, much higher. Serbia appeared to be expelling a people in Kosovo. It appeared to be the agressor. The PR was totally different beyond the merits. On the merits, I was a hard liner on taking Slobo down, and am proud of it.

not only that we took out their water, electricity, and civilian infrastructure and caused thousands of deaths as a result.

Not to mention the Chinese Embassy.

Oh, come on...you know the answer to that question...the economy was good back then in the good ole days. That's all the elitist snobs care about anyway -- the ones in hollywood and the ones in the press. (sarcasm: off). Don't you remember their slogan: War is a good thing when the economy is good and there's a demoncrap in the White House, stupid!
