Wesley Clark ping - this is the hardest, most devastating shot I've seen yet at Clark in the mainstream media. Someone's doing their homework...

There are clues to Shelton's indictment from Clark's Kosovo campaign. The war began after a chorus of charges that the Serbians were unleashing genocidal holocaust upon Kosovars, Albanians and other largely Muslim minorities. And the NATO commander's headquarters rapidly became an echo of the "five o'clock follies" of press misinformation at Army headquarters in Saigon two decades earlier.

Here are a few examples: There were supposed to be 100,000 prisoners detained by the Serbs in a soccer stadium in Pristina. An Agence France Presse reporter dropped by the stadium a few days later and admired its green grass and empty seats with the single caretaker on the site.

NATO headquarters passed along Albanian allegations that Serbian victims were being incinerated at a Trpca mine smelter. But when interviewed by reporter Ben Works, NATO officers admitted they had monitored the site during the entire war and the smelter had never been fired up. P> Even the NATO bomb-damage assessment team Clark sent in after the truce found that instead of the several hundred Serbian tanks Clark had claimed were destroyed by his air war, there were only 12 and about as many personnel carriers. As for atrocities, according to Works, Clark's team found "no credible indications of large scale atrocities or any other pattern of smaller scale crimes against humanity."

Wes Clark's candidacy may seriously backfire on the DLC wing. As they keep trying to imply that Bush lied about Saddam's WMDs, now Clark brings the clearly documented lies of the Kosovo campaign back into the news...

"I've known Wes a long time. I will tell you the reason he came out of Europe early had to do with integrity and character, issues that are very near and dear to my heart." General Shelton

Wes Clark Little Rock, AR
Bill Clinton Little Rock, AR
What is it about Little Rock that produces notables that consistantly come up short in the integrity & character category?

According to military historian Thomas Fleming, "This is the most critical statement by one senior military officer on the record on the conduct of another in the history of the United States armed forces."

Oh I dunno, maybe a little hyperbole there.. There has been a lot of animosity between many military leaders in the past.

Example:
"Quite ignorant for his rank, and quite bigoted in his ignorance."
Gen. Winfield Scott on Zachary Taylor

He "hangs" with the Clintons, and endorses Gray Davis.

What more do you need to know?

I sure hope the military doesn't close ranks, and speaks up with the truth. If they don't they are @#$%^&'s.
