OK, let me get this straight: Now NATO has pledged/agreed to DISARM the KLA at virtually all costs - and they have essentially admitted they will engage in combat if necessary to disarm them, killing KLA and probably NATO/US troops as well, to HELP Serbia disarm the KLA - that way, in 3 months when Milosivec decides to do it all over again (Saddam Hussein proved that exhaustive persistence works against the US), he can re-ethnic-cleanse with no resistance. A few weeks ago, we were talking about how to ARM the KLA. Gee, NATO, that's a reeeeeeeally good plan.
We have no business in disarming freedom-fighters anywhere for any reason. If freedom-fighters exist, they exist for a reason. NATO needs to butt out of the KLAs business once it has completed its mission of returning the refugees. What transpires after that between the KLA and Serbia is a bona fide civil war in which we have no business - there's no war crimes involved in what the KLA is doing. There's no ethnic cleansing. It's just a pure civil power struggle, to be left alone. If I were the KLA, I'd be digging some big holes in the ground about now (what weapons?). Hasn't Stars Wars taught us anything?
