Ha, but that was the point which I accepted. I did start off being very critical of the Serbian sabre-rattling and less aware that others bear equal responsibilities.

I honestly don't think there will ever be a story of what happened that can accurately reflect the aggressions and grievances of all sides.

And I am exasperated that there are too many, on all sides, who would rather ramp up the tensions and permit a return to slaughter than calm down and talk. In fact I am aghast that we seem to be moving towards the idea that it's all the West's fault. I ain't so sure.

I never said, for one, that it's all the West's fault. But when I go behind the scenes and realize that a lot of the dirty stuff is done with a wink and a nod from the West, I'm disgusted.

Read this and realize that this is a NATO general who was in command in the early days of the Yugo break-up:

Now we have ethnic cleansing going on with certain EEU/NATO members having planned it. We have President's and PMs advising Bosnians and Albanians that a massacre must occur to turn the tide of public opinion, we have staged events such as Racak and the Markale Market massacre that do change public opinion. We have the USA bombing Iraq unapologetically and saying, "The deaths of 500,000 Iraqi children are worth it." All these events dovetail very nicely from an old playbook that's used to coerce the media into turning the tide of public opinion. Anytime Western actors get involved, the likes of ex-CIA William Walker show up, and such men are all too ready to preside over the sensational show that is a massacre such as the one at Racak.
