Synopsis

An investigation which makes a compelling case that Western backing of separatist forces led directly to the outbreak of war. "The intelligence agencies were unanimous in stating that if you recognize Bosnia, it will blow up," George Kenney of the State Department reveals. Why then did the U.S. proceed to act accordingly, sparking four years of savage warfare? And why are thousands of American military forces still on the ground in Kosovo, Bosnia and Macedonia, without any official date for troop withdrawals? The chronicle, itself, takes a magnified look at the unresolved inconsistencies and double-talk of certain U.S. foreign policy.
