What very "brutal polcies" ?.The statement is simply untrue. If anything,
Milsoevich has been too gentle. A little of US Grant would go a long way.
Now he seems a bit tougher. Excellent.
The "brutal polciies" argument relies on the impression given by the
newspapers. Of course, when when challenges impressions created by the media,
one upsets people. Who said it would be easy? Aabdo asks, why do it?
Because these "impressions: are used to neutralize opposition to war.
Chomsky's articles on Yugoslavia rely on those impressions - he never clearly
states what "crimes" he is talking about because "everyone knows". Aaabdo
does likewise. I said to Chomsky: either present evidence of these terrible
policies, or apologize and stop doing it. Ditto Aabdo.
