The U.S. Role in Kosovo
Testimony of
Doug Bandow, Senior Fellow, Cato Institute

before the

House International Relations Committee Hearing on "The U.S. Role in Kosovo"

March 10, 1999"

We were quite innocent back then.

Andreas mentioned the bombing of Serbia on Good Friday. I think this was a turning point for me. It was then that I realized that certain ideas about certain countries were absolutely wrong. I believe that lots of people lost their political innocence on this day and, probably, like me, started investigating the real reasons behind political actions. Bombing an Orthodox country on it's Good Friday is symbolic of the people behind the bombing.

Benign words together with hypocritical and deceitful public images that are used to hide evil actions, are no longer capable of deceiving us. There are no longer any "good" or "bad" "guys". We have seen the real face - the godless face - of what is really happening in the world.
