It is a tremendous stretch of the imagination to justify any military action in Kosovo as in the national security interests of the United States. I'm frankly frightened and outraged that our legislators and President are so blinded by our allies and the press. We are rushing to repeat our own failures in Vietnam, Haiti, and Somalia. European history will not record this as a NATO action. You are absolutely correct that Yugoslavians will remember America as the monster aggressor.
Information is the ultimate weapon.
The problem in America is a cultural one demanding quick solutions. We want the McDonald's drive through war at 450 MHz. Information builds tempo slowly, requiring weeks, months, years. Soviet Communism took 70 years to implode. Technology has improved our ability to transfer information power faster and more broadly, but the ultimate receiver is still a human being.
