One point has been missed among the various comments on the
NATO bombing of Yugoslavia. The NATO action, with its imprint of
global military domination as a projection of and safeguard for
economic power, comes hot on the heels of the Asian financial and
economic crisis of 1997-98. This can be read in similar terms as an
exercise in power projection -- destabilisation, manipulation, further
infiltration and eventually overall control.
Not a bad way to end the millenium.
