Clinton Kosovo Policy Will Haunt Candidate Clinton (Good read about history of conflict)
http://www.serbianna.com/columns/rebic/003.shtml ^

Posted on 10/16/2007 1:19:48 PM PDT by kronos77

Whoever doesn’t take the current Clinton candidacy seriously is a fool. It’s quite probable that she’ll end up inheriting the Iraq War and all its collateral issues which I’m sure doesn’t sweeten the pot, but she’s determined to become President anyway. I admire her for that. I know I wouldn’t want to inherit someone else’s baggage. And certainly not that kind of baggage. Candidate Hillary Clinton sure has a lot to say about the Iraq War and how the current administration has conducted itself. Maybe I missed it, but she has not had nearly enough to say about another issue, this one also involving questionable foreign policy that is every bit a part of her legacy as the Iraq War will be part of George Bush’s. Someone needs to ask Hillary about Kosovo.

At the end 2007, the official status of Kosovo could well be finally determined and the implications will be far reaching. Unlike with Iraq, it will not be George Bush who will have to shoulder the blame for the outcome if it’s bad. It will be Candidate Clinton’s albatross, even though she has conveniently, and very thoroughly, been ignoring the elephant in the room.

If I were Diane Sawyer, this is what I’d like to talk to Candidate Clinton about.

Sad, but true.
Anyway, we are talking communists here.
Since when they care about anything?

Kosovo was one of the worst crimes clinton committed in office. He sold out the west to Muslim terrorists, probably for a cut of the Albanian drug money. But the media have ignored it or praised it, and most Republicans have ignored it or praised it, so how can anyone expect most Americans to understand the consequences?

Wasn’t he stopping genocide or something like that?

I enjoy watching British TV, however on two different programs they have made the Serbs into terrorists, coming to London to execute people that may have witnessed “war crimes” committed by Serbs. Is this more of an issue in London? Did more people from that region immigrate to London? As someone said very few people in this country understand what happened in Kosovo...I must admit I am one of them.

I’m amazed that much of what Bill Clinton did while in office has been whitewashed or overlooked entirely. I am also amazed that many older (and wiser Americans) on both sides of the aisle are saying privately, “Anyone but Hillary.” I’m thinking this is all smoke and mirrors on the part of the media.

Unless there are more dumb bunnies than I think, there are many who will remember and vote accordingly. I’m really stunned to hear it from some I encounter, as I would have bet my last dollar on the fact they are too self-absorbed and out of the loop to recognize what happened to them while they were clawing their way to the top of the ladder and the biggest house on the block.

Kosovo??

Does that have anything to do with Hill’s promise to send me a check. If not, I don’t see any reason it should change my vote for the wonderful woman who obviously feels my pain.

You are right on! No one cares! She is going to rely on the fact that no one remembers the history of Kosovo.,p. "If I were Diane Sawyer..."

Diane Sawyer would not and is not going to ask Hillary any question that could bring up anything that would make Hillary look bad!

Get a Life!

Yes he was. I specifically recall being told about the slaughter of 100,000, er, 50,000, er, 25,000, er, 15,000, er, nevermind, impeachment proceedings are over. We won and did not lose one soldier unlike the evil war criminal George W. Bush who was responsible for the death of so many...

A moral imperative to kill

Launching the bombing of Serbia was a family affair in the Clinton White House. Hillary Clinton revealed to an interviewer in the summer of 1999,

I urged him to bomb. You cannot let this go on at the end of a century that has seen the major holocaust of our time. What do we have NATO for if not to defend our way of life?

To simplyfie to the basics.
In 1930es it were Jews foult
In 1990es It was Serbs fault.

Small nation that we can pin on all the cr*p making us look better and without any chance of them proofing opposite cause evrything they say... well, they are Jews (Serbs)

As today.
Israel is killing all the people arround them
Serbs ae killing all the people arround them.

It is simply the fact that there are nation sin the wolrd that take no ones cr*p and wont bow-down.

they have no place in NWO.

Just look at this article comparing Serbias Milosevic and Israels Sharon, bashing tham both:

By Robert Fisk

01/06/05 “”The Independent””

So it is as a war criminal that Sharon will be known forever in the
Arab world, through much of the Western world, in fact - save, of
course, for the craven men in the White House and the State Department
and the Blair Cabinet - as well as many leftist Israelis. Sabra and
Chatila was a crime against humanity. Its dead counted more than half
the fatalities of the World Trade Centre attacks of 2001. But the man
who was responsible was a “man of peace”. It was he who claimed that
the preposterous Yasser Arafat was a Palestinian bin Laden. He it was
who as Israeli foreign minister opposed Nato’s war in Kosovo,
inveighing against “Islamic terror” in Kosovo. “The moment that Israel
expresses support...it’s likely to be the next victim. Imagine that
one day Arabs in Galilee demand that the region in which they live be
recognised as an autonomous area, connected to the Palestinian
Authority...” Ah yes, Sharon as an ally of another war criminal,
Slobodan Milosevic. There must be no Albanian state in Kosovo.

Recall that when the balloon went up in Kosovo, Hillary and Chelsea were on their "world tour" -- recovering from the Monica and impeachment fiasco by leaving town for a couple of months.

At the time, it was prominently reported -- in a tone of admiration -- that Clinton did not commit American forces to the Kosovo affair until he got a call from Hillary.

As I recall, she and Chelsea were in Egypt at the time. And the reported portent of her phone message to Bill was "Why don't you just do it?"

And this was how the media was removed from their coverage of impeachment, Juanita Broaddrick and the Cox Report -- to gleefully cover a war in Kosovo.

How could anybody want this shrew in charge of anything?

Clinton killed over 3,000 Serbs, mostly women and children, people who had done us no harm. I find it horrifying.
