#1 Since I was a fly on the wall during this conflict I can offer the following: We did NOT expect the Russians to take Pristina Airport (or anything else) and the big worry was 'what the hell are they doing here?'. General Clark, Supreme Allied Commander NATO, do not know what the Russians were doing in Pristina. I suspect that the Philander-in-Chief was too busy with Monica to brief his Commander about a side deal with Russia. I think the troll (Albright) made the deal to get the Serbs out of Kosovo so that we could go unopposed. This was SOP for Clinton, he didnât (nor did the shrew) like or trust the military. Yes we almost went to war with the Russian over Kosovo, but all the blame cannot be laid on Clark. I donât think Clark would make a good President (He doesnât understand politics), but I canât fault him when he didnât have all the information. Trust me I was puckered up about this at the time and I had vision of missiles and nuclear holocaust OVER KOSOVO! General Clark was responding to what he thought was a Russian threat and Sir Mike did not want to be part of that fight. Good call on his part!
