The Serbs and Croats were armed enough to handle themselves. Still wonder what the actual reason for our involvement in that one is. Could be that when not actively engaged in wars of whatever genre, (milatary wars, War on Terrorism, War on Drugs etc) the powers that be in the US suffer an identity crisis. Without war, would the US still be the same US we all know and love? "...And the rocket's red glare, the bombs bursting in air, gave proof through the night that our flag was still there .... ...And where is that band who so vauntingly swore That the havoc of war and the battle's confusion A home and a country should leave us no more? Their blood has wiped out their foul footstep's pollution. No refuge could save the hireling and slave From the terror of flight, or the gloom of the grave ... ....Praise the Power that hath made and preserved us a nation. Then conquer we must, for our cause it is just..." and then for him to tell the US how to treat the murdering savages in the east. Hmmm ... should be a piece of cake. Just kill 'em! Worked just fine for the Dodi dilemna, after all.
