March 30, 1999

The targets in the assault on Yugoslavia appear
to be similar to those singled out during the
assaults on Iraq in the 1990s and Nicaragua in
the 1980s (not to mention the mini-assault on Sudan
last year): basic economic and social service
infrastructure.

Note the attack on the Yugo factory. That's
one way for the US-German auto industry
to remain competitive, isn't it?
