It forces U.S. citizens and others in Europe opposed to the war to pay for it. and some are even forced to fight in it against their will. If the war expands. we can expect the return of the draft to make sure there are enough soldiers to participate. As ugly as the Yugoslavian civil war may be in Kosovo. and as heart wrenching as the pictures of mass refugees fleeing their homeland is. one evil can never justify another. If one is disinclined to be persuaded by law and morality and responds only to emotions. propaganda and halftruths. then one must consider the practical failure of compulsive intervention in the affairs of other nations. Prior to NATOs expanding the war in Yugoslavia. approximately 2.000 deaths in the past year were recorded in Kosovo. As a consequence of NATOs actions. the killing has now escalated and no one can hardly be pleased just because now Serbs. our oncevaliant allies against the Nazis. are dying. Those who are motivated by good intentions while ignoring facts cannot be excused for the escalating and dangerous crisis in Yugoslavia. The humanitarian concerns for Albanian refugees is justified. but going to war because of emotional concerns while ignoring other millions of refugees around the world only stirs the passions of the oppressed. whether they are Kurds. Palestinians. Tibetans.
