The problem is not that NATO isn't attacking dozens of countries. The problem is
that it is attacking ANY countries. You can't justify this killing on humanitarian
grounds given that (1) NATO actually opposes independence for Kosova; (2) NATO wants
its own troops to occupy Kosova and to "demilitarize" the Kosovars' own
organizations; (3) NATO has caused more suffering and death in Kosova than Serbia
had done prior to the bombing, and the NATO commander said that he expected as much;
and (4) NATO has made no contribution whatsoever to humanitarianism in the past, and
has shown no signs of changing its agenda.
