RIP Brave man. One can only wonder how he felt about the bombing of Serbia by Clinton...
Your comment aroused memories that I had put to rest. I had followed the tactics of NATO, in the deliberate bombing of civilian installations. I was still mindful of the war crimes tribunals of yesteryear in which men were hanged or imprisoned. This was for bombing civilian targets in order to demoralize the enemy. The Luftwaffe had bombed Belgrade in 1941.
I was heartened by WW2 American veterans who spoke up in defence of the Serbs. Saved from the Nazis. I now found out about the control of the press that few in Canada thought existed. For some reason the destruction of 17 Serbian villages and at least 100 civilians murdered in 1993 was virtually censored. This by Croatian forces.
The Canadian troops had intervened and got engaged in a firefight with the Croats. They saved a number of Serbs. The whole thing was covered up- why, it beats me. Years later, McLeans magazine published the story of the "Firefight at Medak Pocket". Something rotten was afoot. How the Serbs were damned from day one and how the others were pictured as innocents, we may never know.
Bill Clinton, Louise Arbour (Human Rights Commissioner) might be said to "have blood on their hands".
It is frightening how slanted the media is, how far they are willing to go in covering up the worst crimes to advance a Leftist agenda.
