The Liberal/Leftist leaning US corporate media failed to tell the facts about the Clinton/NATO bombing campaign against Serbia and his alliance with Islamist Al Qaeda linked terrorists in Kosovo & Bosnia.
The US corporate media deliberately engaged in a campaign of obfuscation - as did the Clinton White House, Pentagon and State Department- before, during, and after the bombing of Serbia -and still does so to this very day.
I found out too late from Washington Post reporter, Michael Dobbs, speaking to the World Affairs Council, that the Pentagon deliberately bombed civilians in an effort to sap the morale of the people, as was revealed by Washington-based O'Dwyers PR report - but NOT CNN,CBS,ABC,NBC,NYT,WP etc.
Available at: Link)
The European media (especially the Spanish media)were not blindly following what their governments were alleging, unlike most of the US media, which regurgitated State Department and Pentagon press releases almost word for word.
Compare this to the US media's current anti-war/anti-Bush stance [apart from the notable exception of Rupert Murdoch's Fox network]on Iraq. What blatant media HYPOCRISY!!
Nobody in their right mind would want to defend ethnic cleansing or genocide, and it's pretty obvious that anyone who attempts to expose Clinton's and NATO leaders' war crimes in the Balkans will be forced to go on the defensive, as they will inevitably be accused of precisely just that - the same old "are you still beating your wife?" "tar-baby" technique of character assassination.
However, the illegality of the bombing, the non-sensical arguments used to support it, and the evidence of NATO leaders' war crimes - including that of Bill Clinton and his accomplice Madeleine Albright - is indisputable.
But "Slick Willy" Clinton NEVER got condemned for his illegal war on any of the above points by the fawning US Liberal/Leftist media [but of course, Bush gets vehemently condemned over Iraq by the likes of CNN's Christiane Amanpour - one of the most vociferous & vocal supporters of Clinton during his Balkans adventures].
Unlike the European public back in 1999, the truth I did NOT learn from the US media (until it was way too late) was this:
The entire basis and justification given by Clinton/Albright & the US media for the bombing of Milosevic's Yugoslavia/Serbia - that it was a "humanitarian intervention" to stop "Milosevic's dream of a Greater Serbia" - was a complete and TOTAL LIE. Sound far fetched? Not if you probe a little.
Now look, I'm no fan of the ex-communist turned "leftist social democrat" Slobodan Milosevic; despite the fact that ALL the ex-Yugoslav republican leaders were former communists including Tudjman,Izetbegovic,Kucan,Djindjic,Djukanovic etc., only Milosevic got demonized first as a "communist", then a "fascist" then a "Butcher of the Balkans/Belgrade" by the US corporate media.
However, in spite of Milosevic's ex-communist background, there is no question that he is completely INNOCENT of the trumped up charges brought by the NATO-owned ICTY at The Hague, of "joint criminal enterprise" [i.e. a conspiracy] with Radovan Karadzic & Ratko Mladic, to create an ethnically pure "Greater Serbia".
The so-called "prosecutors" & "judges" [working in concert on the SAME side of the bench - what a cute & novel form of future international "justice"!] must be real comedians with their sick jokes concerning what "ethnically pure" means in Serbia. Just take a look at Serbia's massive multi-ethnic minority community, with more rights & privileges than any minority in ANY Western capitalist "liberal democracy".
Not ONE of these minorities in Serbia was in ANY way persecuted or denied rights by the Serbs,despite the Serbian people being killed en masse & persecuted by the Croatian Ustasha Catholics in Krajina,Albanian & Bosnian muslim co-religionists across the border in Bosnia,and in the Serbian province of Kosovo.
Not one of the minorities in Serbia were denied any of their rights,harassed,persecuted,expelled or had their churches & mosques destroyed, even at the height of the Clinton/Generals Wesley Clark & Michael Short crazed terror bombing of purely civilian targets in Serbia.
These purely civilian targets included children's day care centers, pre-schools,maternity hospitals,nursing homes,churches,museums,zoos,libraries,food markets etc.
All of this being done on behalf of the bin Laden-backed and Agim Ceku-led terrorist KLA-UCK[the Croatian General, Agim Ceku - an ethnic Albanian - who took a leading role in planning the shelling of civilian targets in Knin, during Operation Storm in Krajina 1995, which resulted in the brutal expulsion of 275 to 350 thousand Serbian civilians from land their ancestors had lived in since the 15th century].

Truth
I don't need to see a movie because I was in Sarajevo during the aggression. The Bosnian Serbs,
mostly peasants,uneducated,seljaci,driven by Milosevic's promise of "Great Serbia" were the once that committed the atrocities. In Sarajevo in particular they drove out with all of the artillery which they set up on the parimiter of the city. Then they bombed the city for four years staight. But what's important is that not all the Serbs believed in Milosevic's ideology. Large amount of them stayed in Sarajevo and fought on Muslim and Croat side. It hard to believe that the city didn't fall because we didn't have anything to fight back with since Serbs took all of the weapons. It must be devestating to them that they were unable to take over the capital. They lost the war!
