Since Srebenica, a UN enclave in which Serbs slaughtered several thousand Muslims in 1995, there has been widespread criticism of western intelligence agencies for failing to provide evidence of atrocities. Some of that criticism has been abated by the fact that the Milosevic indictment appears to have been made possible by sophisticated electronic interceptions of high level Serb conversations. But whether there is technology sufficient to identify individuals commiting war crimes, and if so, why it hasn't been tendered, is an open question. If the question concerns Milosevic, probably life in prison in one of the countries which have volunteered to take convicted tribunal prisoners. I just do not buy the story that we wanted to stop ethnic clensing.
Genocide happens constantly and consistantly all over the world.
What is so special about Kosovo. What was the United States's real objective and how does the recent Russian troop movement play into the whole scene. The reasons for the US intervention were that the genocidal policies of Milosevic threatened to destabilize the entire southern European region. As for Russia, the United States has always tried to include it in the Kosovo action. And this was done for greater European stability.
