“It amazes me that the most significant war action during the Clinton years was carried out against our Christian Serb allies in support of Muslim Albanian terrorists”
The Serbs were also killing christian croations.
The justification at the time was that Clinton felt he was preventing another genocide - and he oftened referred to how the assassination in Sarajevo started a world war.
If memory serves me correctly, the dems were falling all over Clinton’s bravery in preventing bloodshed - protecting innocents from an aggressive dictator.
That same thinking didn’t - however - carry over to the situation in Iraq.
You mean the same Clinton who stood by and did nothing while a real genocide was happening in Rwanda?
>The Serbs were also killing christian croations.
The war in Croatia started as Belgrade wanting to keep Yugoslavia together, and devolved into a fratricidal ethnic conflict. The local Serbs didn’t trust Zagreb as far as their well-being was concerned. Take a look at what the “Christian” Croatian Ustashe did back during WWII, adn that wasn’t all that long ago.
>and he oftened referred to how the assassination in Sarajevo started a world war.
That war started when Austria attacked Serbia in revenge for Archduke Ferdinand’s assasination. Vienna basically wanted nothing less than blood. How could a guerilla and terrorist war in a rinkey-dink little province match up with the killing of a head of state?
Sorry, the Albanians are the ones that attacked the Croats in Kosovo! (along with their attacks of the Gorani, Roma, Serbs and Turks!)
