Bombing Yugoslavia: The Inexorable Logic of War
After six weeks of military conflict the news and pictures arriving from Yugoslavia and Albania have recalled to our memory that war means above all an endless chain of immense human suffering. Committing atrocities of all kind, the Serbian militia has expelled almost the whole Albanian population of Kosovo. Helping the refugees has therefore become the most important thing to do. While NATO bombs continue destroying Yugoslavia's infrastructure and economy, Milosevic's army has remained almost intact. NATO's last military option of sending in ground troops is risky for both military and political reasons. Anyway, it could become inevitable, if diplomatic efforts still lack success. Since too many things depend on the outcome of this conflict, NATO cannot give in half way, permitting Milosevic to save his regime. The noble Serbian nation has already paid an extremely high price for its leader's criminal plans. Will Milosevic understand or will he follow Hitler's footsteps, trying to carry his people to his own grave?
