“Again, what in the world is your beef here?”

I have no beef: YOU are the only who expressed high dudgeon when I pointed out that KFOR is multinational and is under NATO command, pursuant to UNSC 1244.

It’s similar to this: The Korean War 1950-1953 was fought against the communist North under the authority of the UN (hence, the troops that opposed the communists were called UN troops); and the UN placed overall command of those troops under US general Douglas MacArthur. Thus, it was not an AMERICAN war against the North, it was a UN war under the command of a US general.

I suppose you consider Afghanistan to be a “UN war” too?

To be more precise, the UN passed a resolution to place all UN forces under the command of the US military, and Truman named MacArthur as the supreme commander.
