Capt Ed,
er obviously forgotten about how the UN coped with Bosnia a couple of years before! UN can't bring force down, thats NATO's job. So to save five years of p!ssing in the wind, NATO went in to help prevent the needless cleansing that the UN were powerless to stop previously. Serbs, innocent....are you quite mad or on Slobolots payrole! Suppose Adolf was a nice chap too! With respect, get real!


Capt Ed,
just had a brief look at the link you provided. Very nice. There is always two sides to a story, no doubt Hitler had his side too, but are you trying to say that his opinion was right?
Just depends on which side of the fence you are straddling at the time. I appear to be comparing the two, well from my experience (served as UN and NATO/IFOR/KFOR/UNAMEIT!), the damage created by the Serbs was no different from certain atrocities caused by Mein Fuhrer. I know, I was present at several of the discoveries of the mass graves, history tells us who is to blame. Appreciate your sentiment on their efforts during the war, fair one, but we are living in a very different world. The recent history, I think, is the one that will reflect a state of affairs. Not fifty years ago.
