Continuing to bomb Kosovo in the hope that it would still bring the tyrant to the negotiating table is sheer folly, and one that is bound to make a peaceful settlement harder to achieve. People who have lost kin or friend are not likely to be persuaded to talk peace. They are likely to be persuaded only to seek revenge. Take it from the Chinese demonstrators who vow to become soldiers and storm Washington. The bombings are not alienating Milosevic from his people, they are alienating the Serb nation from Nato.
People are bound to lose more kin and friend the longer the bombings continue.
There is no such thing as a smart bomb. Bombs, like Biblical rain, fall on both the good and the bad. The premise for smart bombs in fact is not very smart. It presupposes that in a country like Yugoslavia, you can isolate or segregate government and military installations from civilian ones. Of course there could be another explanation for the bombing of the Chinese Embassy.
