Guest X-QUORK Posted September 10, 2009 Share Posted September 10, 2009 Irrespective of whether or not they are leagl or moral. Plain old killing squads if you think about. Take it up with the member Nations' elected governments, they sent the "killing squads". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1929crash Posted September 10, 2009 Share Posted September 10, 2009 More accurate I'd say. Some nations might stall and prevaricate, but what the US wants it gets, with submissive states like the UK and Poland. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
indirectapproach Posted September 10, 2009 Share Posted September 10, 2009 "In 1997 Jackson was appointed Commander of the Allied Rapid Reaction Corps. He served in the NATO chain of command as a deputy to the Supreme Allied Commander Europe, General Wesley Clark. In this capacity, he is best known for refusing, in June 1999, to block the runways of the Russian-occupied Pristina Airport, to isolate the Russian troops there.[3] Had he complied with General Clark's order, there was a chance the British troops under his command could have come into armed conflict with the Russians; doing this without prior orders from Britain would have led to much controversy. On the other hand, defying Clark would have meant disobeying a direct order from a superior NATO officer (Clark was a four-star general; Jackson a three-star). Jackson ultimately chose the latter course of action, reputedly saying "I won't start World War III for you",[3]" http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mike_Jackson The Septics didn't get what they wanted from us there.
