description: This look at Slobodan Milosevic's defense statement—regarding his country, his people, and himself—accompanies a legal brief by a former U.S. attorney general. The brief suggests that the American government and its European allies exacerbated religious and ethnic differences in Yugoslavia in order to reduce the country to a group of easily colonized mini-states, while each of the NATO powers and their respective media lied to justify the aggression. Detractors of the recent experiences in Iraq who no longer believe the American government's spin on its foreign policy will find much to consider about the 1999 events in Yugoslavia.
