March 24, 2018, marks the 19th
anniversary of NATO illegal and illegitimate bombing of Yugoslavia,
Serbia and its Kosovo, province during 78 days. It has – one is tempted
to say: of course – been conveniently forgotten by the West itself.
It
was masterminded by the United States under Bill Clinton and Secretary
of State Madeleine Albright after the so-called negotiations between
Serbs and Albanians in Rambouillet outside Paris (the parties never met
face-to-face).
While
Clinton may be best remembered for his relations with Monica Lewinsky
and his wife, Hillary Clinton, some of us also remember him (and
Albright) for bombing Afghanistan, Sudan, Bosnia-Hercegovina and
contributions to the proportionately largest ethnic cleansing in
Yugoslavia – of Croatian Serbs out of Croatia’s Krajina, Eastern and
Western Slavonia where they had lived for about 400 years, in Operations
“Storm” and “Flash” in 1995.
