Does anyone care to argue that intervening in Kosovo was a bad idea,

Lots of people!

that the Western alliance wasn't (at least for a brief spell) strengthened as a result,

It was?  The French were sending bombing info to Milosevic ahead of time.  The Germans were constantly pleading to end the air campaign (Since they got caught lying about the Pristina soccer field camp)

or that the war was unsuccessful?

Are the residents of Yugoslavia better off today than they were 4 years ago?

Milosevic surrendered, was captured,

To whom?  To the government of Yugoslavia.

and is standing trial for war crimes in a court of international law

A court that makes the OJ trial look like jurisprudence.

—which is more than can be said of Saddam Hussein.

At least we found mass grave in Iraq which is more than we can say about Yugoslavia.

The Serbian defeat was total, unchallenged, and internationally imposed, which may explain why the (truly multinational) postwar peacekeeping forces have suffered minimal casualties in the intervening years.

Yes, but look at who is causing those casualties!!!

I can say that we found mass graves in Yugoslavia, and furthermore, I can say we found three Americans in a mass grave who were killed by Serbian policemen after the war was over, but they were Albanian Americans so they apparently don't register any more on your radar than non-American Albanians.

If you're going to lie, Incorrigible, don't address your lies to me.

I stood in front of those mass graves myself. I saw the murdered dead. You do not know what you are talking about.
