[More reports from the humanitarian bombing front.] This Atrocity is Still a Mystery to NATO. Perhaps I Can Help... The Independent (London) 4/17/99 By Robert Fisk When you stand at the site of a massacre, two things happen. First, you wonder about the depths of the human spirit.

40166 ground troops -- rank: 1000
Speaking of ground troops, I have a question for our resident warriors, Field Marshal Burford and Brigadier General Newman: if humanitarian concerns were really at the forefront, wouldn't the "right" thing to do be to deploy a large contingent of soldiers rather than bomb empty police HQ, oil refineries, bridges, and refugee convoys? Don't you find something deeply cowardly and hypocritical about this whole approach, in which hundreds of immediate and thousands of long-term civilian de ...

[from this week's Nation] The Nation - May 3, 1999 NATIONALISM UNLEASHED We Hungarians entered NATO on March 12. Less than two weeks later, as NATO members, we provided free air lanes for military planes to Yugoslavia, and now we must identify ourselves with a war against a neighboring country. To make my position clear: I was in favor of Hungary joining NATO, and I'm glad NATO will protect us against external enemies, though as far as I know, no one intended to attack my country. Two years ago, ...
