Nonetheless, I wonder what is our collective (oh-oh) responsibility for this guy. When the US was bombing Serbia, they supposedly went to great lengths to avoid civilian casualities. But why? Isn't Milosevic their leader? Don't the Serbian people bear some responsibility for putting this guy in office?
There was a Nightline show where Ted Koppel went to Belgrade and had a little lunchtime chat with some Serbs. They claimed that the US was deliberately targetting civilians. Ted made the point that, if that were the case, there would be hundreds of thousands of dead civilians. It was almost enough to make me think that the US should do at least one B-52 bombing run over Belgrade civilian housing, so they could say, 'See, this is what happens when we deliberately target civilians'. The US didn't seem to have much qualms about bombing Germans and Japanese civilians in WWII.
