Time to pick apart you Repuke information sources.

"Unlike CNN, the Belgrade TV was showing pictures of the civilian casualties caused by NATO bombing."

Do you know for fact that they were US casualities and not the that of Molosvices henchmen? No, you don't. Does showing pictures of a baby screaming worthy to allow them to continue communicating information on flights of Allied aircraft? I don't think so.CNN did show use the huge mass graves of Ethnic Albanians graves that were slaughtered by the enemy.

"Soon after, the Chinese criticized the U.S.-led attack on Yugoslavia and presented a peace plan to the UN. Within 48 hours, their embassy was bombed. The presented excuse is patently ridiculous, or else indicative of how "well targeted" and humane the whole campaign was (old maps!)."

You clearly don't realize that it takes 3-6 months to program a Tomahawk cruise missle. Amazing that 48 hours later they were able to program a missle that takes usually 6 months. The reason that we are able to go to war instantly with any nation is because we set up programs prior. The Chinese embassay use to be a storage building for weapons. WIth thousands of programs don't you think it is at all possible that one building was overlooked? Or like you believe the Tomahawk simply dials up www.mapquest.com and get directions to it's destination in route? I don't think so, these missles are programmed months, even years before because it takes a great deal of programming to get it within ten feet of the target. Our enemies know this and that is why they change buildings so frequently, it is the only real defense they have. You have no knoweledge of military operations do you. Do you even know how many targets a Tomahawk can hit? Who programs them? Or where they are designed? I doubt it.


"Even more insidious is that these Serbian churches were OLD churches, famous for their ability to resist our peacemaking missiles."

Let us see here. If you are living in an old shack and bombs are coming down on your head, you would stay there rather than run to a 2 million ton stone building with an underground bunker?

Your explaination is the Clark purposely targeted innocent people because he wanted to and had some extra bombs to use and ran out of targets. All the while getting 19 UN nations and thousands of others to go along.

Man, all I can say is I know which of the three groups you fall into:
