Gen. Wesley Clark, was wirklich hinter dem Balkan-Konflikt steckte

verfasst von black elk, 10.02.2001, 01:00

Hi,

schon mal den Gedanken weitergedacht, warum die USA so verbissen gegen ein kleines fernes Land eines so aufwendigen Krieg geführt haben? Vielleicht hilft ja dieser kleine Artikel aus der New York Times weiter..

Hier der Text:

Here are some excerpts from the Times story, titled,"His Family's Refugee Past Is Said to Inspire NATO's Commander:"

"The American general who is leading NATO's military operation... discovered as an adult that he is the grandson of a Russian Jew who fled his country to escape the pogroms there a century ago. Gen. Wesley Kanne Clark was raised as a Protestant in Little Rock, Ark., where he was brought up by his mother and stepfather, Victor Clark. He was ignorant of his ancestry, which disappeared from his life with the death of his father, Benjamin Jacob Kanne, when Wesley was five years old. He learned of his ethnic background when he was in his 20's and embraced the discovery, according to several family members.

General Clark has not discussed his heritage with many people, sharing his belated discovery of his biological father's family and background with only a few close friends and his immediate family. He declined to be interviewed for this article.

Since President Slobodan Milosevic of Yugoslavia began the forced exodus of Albanians from Kosovo, many have drawn parallels with the expulsion of Jews from Russia and the Nazi mass murder of Jews during the Holocaust in Europe. But in interviews, some of his relatives and friends say that General Clark was inspired by the story of his grandfather's persecution and escape from his native land, and that his determination to defeat Milosevic is fed in part by his empathy for the victims of Serbian ethnic purges."
