Yes. NATO acted brutally. *And* the Serbs were involved in brutality and repression. Both are true. It is possible to see both.
But NATO was "killing to stop repression" only in the same sense that Milosevic was killing to "fight terrorism." Both are hollow rhetorical conceits. NATO killed simply to assert its own existence. A peaceful resolution to the Kosovo crisis would have been a menace to the Alliance. As a White House foreign policy advisor told the Washington Post on the eve of the bombing:
"There are massive bloodbaths all over the world and we're not intervening in them. [The difference is] this one's in the heart of Europe. I'd argue that the alliance itself is at risk because if it's unable to address a major threat within Europe, it really loses its reason for being."
You chose to support one hollow conceit but not the other, which is what I am baffled by.
