The Kosovo Cover-Up(Origin of the Wesley Clark Character Issue)

Screw your link.

You're talking about "hanging" military personnel like the pilots of VF-14, who after Kosovo went on to spearhead the air campaign in Afghanistan, or General John P. Jumper, who was the Commander, U.S. Air Forces in Europe is now the Chief of Staff of the Air Force.

You just don't get this whole "think about what you say before you say it" concept, do you?

[Destro]

And Waco was just a police action - and the general who lent the tanks became NATO supreme commander...your point is?

[Hoplite]

Get some semblance of control over your attention defecit disorder, Destro.

You've placed yourself on record as wanting to subject the current military establishment to a meritless Serbian and far-left witch hunt against our personnel involved in Allied Force, while at the same time lauding the likes of Ratko Mladic.

You're a fine American, aren't you.

[Destro]

Putting Clark and other Clinton era generals on trail for war crimes is a far left witch hunt? You best check yourself before you wreck yourself. Adoption and support of a United Nations court is the ESSENCE of far left wingisim-something you support. I advocate an American review/investigation especially now that the Republicans control all three estates of govt. That is the best way to exorcise the demonic Clinton puppets and holdovers.

[Hoplite]

You've allied yourself with the likes of the International Action Center and the Serbian Unity Congress, not the Republican Party on this one, Destro. You advocate for foreign interests and domestic ones antithetical to American values on this topic - if you think any Republican administration is going to come anywhere near your position on this matter you're smoking crack. The Bush administration continues to support the ICTY, and is going to impose economic sanctions on Serbia if Mladic isn't transferred to the ICTY by that time, so, again, you're HUA syndrome renders your ability to discern facts and render meaningful opinions null and void.

And as I've pointed out to you, it's not just the Generals who would be prosecuted if your second hand stupidity were implemented, it would also include the men sitting in the cockpits during Allied Force.

Whatever - so long as they continue to protect your right to stab them in the back it's business as usual.

[Destro]

Who said the current Republicans in power are true conservatives? They are free spending liberals.

[Destro]

PS _ I don't fear an American court of law--do u?

[Hoplite]

First things first: by that time: - March 31, 2004 per H.R.2004, Sec 678.

So now the Republican Party is no longer conservative, is it?

The Balkan nutjob "Black is White" mindset reveals itself yet again.

And no, I don't fear American courts - but then if I were a Serbian war criminal I would have little reason to fear that country's domestic courts either, hence the ICTY and the current administration's continuity of support for it.

[Destro]

So now the Republican Party is no longer conservative, is it?

You haven't heard? Conservatives are now the "Blacks" of the Republican Party

[Robert A Cook PE]

Not true.

There were relatively few tanks/APC's destroyed; and the few that WERE in "depots" were the few that were destroyed.

Claiming that "immobile" items were rendered ineffective still doesn't destroy them.

Look at the Clinton administration cover-up and blatant military intimidation here (this Newsweek story has been printed here in FR several times!) as Clark and the White House suckers at the Pentagon re-wrote the truth until the Clintons' were satisfied.

But the left plays on ....

[Hoplite]

So it's not enough that you are wasting everybody's time with your vacuous, toxic opinions of foreign affairs, now you're promoting a schism within the Republican Party as well.

Politics is the art of compromise, Destro - to have forgotten or not grasped the lesson offered by Ralph Nader in the 2000 election simply further confirms the low expectations I have for you.

[Destro]

Politics is the art of compromise for politicians. I am not a politician, I am a constituent and I want to be courted and I will hold my vote up to those that will do what I and my fellow conservatives want to be done.

[Hoplite]

You've been courted and bedded by interests inimical to America's.

End of story.

[Destro]

My grass roots conservative lobby efforts helped the Republican congress deny Clinton authorization for the war in Kosovo.

[Hoplite]

And you did such a fine job of it that the congress went ahead and funded Allied Force anyway, despoiling the fruits of your efforts.

Stroke your pathetic little ego in front of someone else, Destro.

[Destro]

Politicians and their compromises. Weak Republicans were never able to get that scum bag Clinton.
