Ah, the tu quoque fallacy. When the going gets tough, the tough change the
subject--and tendentiously at that.
Churchill and FDR killed many more Germans than that during WWII, so I
suppose that makes them Nuremberg criminals too. Getting killed is one of
the hazards of having a homicidal despot for a ruler. And few Serbs
protested Milo until he had brought ruin to what's left of their country. If
instead he had slaughtered every Kosovar Albanian, the civilians you pretend
to care about would have been happily looting the houses of the dead. Spare
me the crocodile tears, William. Your moral equivalence argument would make
Arkan laugh.
