Moradoh ovdje pošto ne nađoh temu o ulozi SAD u crnom ratu koji preživjesmo:
Iz slučaja ovog senatora, čijim imenom je zaslužno nazvan most na Otoci, vidi se kakva
kriminalna politika je bila tadašnje administracije Clintona.

"While on a fact-finding mission to Croatia during the Croatian War of Independence, McCloskey was one of the first outsiders to arrive in the Croatian village of Voćin within hours after the Voćin massacre in 1991. After witnessing the atrocities in Voćin (McCloskey was the first to use the word genocide to describe the activities in the disintegrating Yugoslavia), McCloskey made the issue of bringing peace to the Balkans his primary issue,
even though his stance on the war in the Balkans put him at odds with members of his own party, including the Clinton White House.
...
During the press conference McCloskey called the massacre at Voćin, and all the others that had happened in Croatia, genocide. He was the first to put it in that context and like a lot of other things McCloskey said and did,
the reference to genocide caused considerable consternation at the State Department. In fact, State did not decide to call these murders genocide until much later, after the deaths of a quarter million people in three countries.
...
It was after Voćin that
McCloskey became an outspoken critic of the Serbian campaign and of his colleagues in Washington who continued to insist the conflict in Croatia was only a "civil war", and something in which the U.S. had no business interfering. McCloskey went immediately to Belgrade and accused Slobodan Milosevic of war crimes to his face. After that he went back to Washington, contacting State Department officials at the highest levels to which he had access. He gave Deputy
Secretary of State Lawrence Eagleburger a complete briefing, and wondered why
nothing was done. When the same Serbian units that conducted the massacres in Croatia began to spread their grim work around Bosnia-Herzegovina, McCloskey went to have a look for himself.
In 1992, after returning from his first trip to Mostar in Bosnia as a guest of the Croatian American Association, McCloskey held a press conference at the Foreign Press Bureau at Hotel Split. In the presence of a State Department representative, a U.S. Marine Corps officer, and members of the international press corps, McCloskey called for U.S. led NATO air strikes against Serbian positions in Bosnia-Herzegovina as a way of ending the war.
When it became clear to him that
support would not be forthcoming from either his party or Administration leaders, McCloskey broke with the mainstream Democratic party and made history by looking
Warren Christopher in the eye during a hearing on the Balkans and demanding the
Secretary of State's resignation for his conduct of policy toward Bosnia-Herzegovina.
In December 1993, at the request of Gojko Susak, then Croatian Minister of Defense, McCloskey went to Geneva and helped broker an uneasy peace between Croats and Muslims fighting each other in Bosnia-Herzegovina. Once again, McCloskey was the first, but this time the State Department followed his lead and the peace became permanent.
Sadly, when the Washington Agreement was actually signed between Croats and Muslims in 1994, McCloskey was not invited. Undaunted, he elbowed his way into the Old Executive Office Building to witness the ceremony, and said afterwards President Clinton had grudgingly acknowledged his presence.
Part of the reason for his distance from his fellow Democrat may have had to do with
the fact that McCloskey had handed President Clinton his very first foreign policy defeat. But that particular battle was the beginning of a movement in Congress that transformed
the British-backed Clinton policy toward the Balkans. By continually drawing attention to "ethnic cleansing" in the villages and towns of ex-Yugoslavia, McCloskey managed to gain the support of a majority of Democrats who, on every issue but this one, remained loyal to the Administration's position on non-intervention."
I mi kao očekujemo da nam takvi pragmatičari-interesdžije pomažu te i dalje kreiraju budućnost.
Osnovni njihov modus operandi u bližoj budućnosti prema BiH isključivo će ići kroz prizmu osiguravanja neometanog crpljenja nafte i ostalih ruda u korist korporacija koje ih lobiraju/potplaćuju i
svoje energetske stabilnosti.
Naravno, uz osiguravanje
stabilnog crpljenja novca natrag u Vašington - MMF-u i WB-u.
eto napretka
