A Democrat war hero?

Clinton 11 Foot StatueKosovo unveils Clinton’s statue

The statue portrays the former president with his left arm raised while holding documents bearing the date when NATO started its air campaign against Yugoslavia – 24 March 1999.

Why this is a farce:

It was illegal

Clinton’s 1999 NATO war in Kosovo was illegal under U.S. and international law.  The U.S. Congress never voted for it and the U.N. never endorsed it.  There was no claim that Yugoslavia had weapons of mass destruction or had ties to terrorist groups.  Instead, Clinton had the U.S. intervene on behalf of the terrorists, operating in Kosovo under the banner of the KLA.  They had links to Osama bin Laden.  In fact, it is reported that the KLA’s head of elite forces, Muhammed al-Zawahiri, was the brother of Ayman al-Zawahiri, the military commander for bin Laden’s Al Qaeda.  After the war, the KLA was transformed into the police force for Kosovo.

It was poorly executed

In fact, Clinton’s bombing of the former Yugoslavia killed more people than died in this “genocide.” And his policy benefited Osama bin Laden and the global Jihad.

It helped the wrong side

Those of us who warned that the West was being sucked in on the side of an
extremist, militant, Kosovo-Albanian independence movement were dismissed
as appeasers. The fact that the lead organization spearheading the fight for
independence, the Kosovo Liberation Army (KLA), was universally designated
a terrorist organization and known to be receiving support from Osama bin
Laden’s al-Qaeda was conveniently ignored.

It produced the wrong outcome

Since the NATO/UN intervention in 1999, Kosovo has become the crime
capital of Europe. The sex slave trade is flourishing. The province has become an
invaluable transit point for drugs en route to Europe and North America.
