Quote of the Week

Kosovo edition:

"Whatever the reason for the coalition victory, everybody was perfectly willing to take credit for it. The Air Force took credit for achieving the first "pure air power victory" in the history of armed conflict. The Navy took credit for the first maritime victory ever won without a single naval engagement. The Army took credit for the greatest air and naval victory ever commanded by an Army general. The White House took credit for the greatest military victory achieved under a Democratic administration since Franklin Roosevelt's.

"No good guys got killed in combat. Not all that many bad guys died either. In all... Kosovo was a perfect little war to end the twentieth century with."

--Jeff Huber, Bathtub Admirals
