Washington bombs

The bombing of Serbia by the Washington led military coalition earlier this 
year may have
been meant as a warning to Russia not to step too far out of line. 
Certainly Washington's
bombing of Serbia is clear evidence that Washington is now prepared to  use 
such
aggression against a European power such as Serbia and may be prepared to 
use military air
power against Russia over Chechnya or some other matter/s.

It would seem that the bombing of Serbia was not merely executed to simply 
deal with
Belgrade. It would seem to have broader political and strategic 
implications --an
indication as to how far Washington is prepared to go to develop and 
maintain its kind of
world. The bombing of Serbia adds clout to the seriousness of Washington's 
diplomatic and
strategic programme. It is a way of telling the world to take Washington 
serious. In that
way the bombing was generally meant to underscore and strengthen American 
strategy and
corresponding diplomacy. It may have been that the subjugation of Belgrade 
was essentially
a subsidiary issue to the one of underscoring overall global American 
strategy --similar,
perhaps, in intent to nuking of Hiroshoma.
