(I read the Monica Lewinsky thing was only found when they were searching something else desperately trying to find something to impeach him on. Because Nixon was impeached.)
Yep, the Starr report was basically hundreds of pages of mostly legally irrelevant sensationalism, and Republicans charged taxpayers 40 million to make it.
Technically, Nixon resigned before being impeached, though the writing was on the wall. I wonder if he would have resigned if the Democrats didn’t have a supermajority.
There’s bombing the pharma plant in Sudan that killed 10,000 and an unknown number of downstream people due to lack of medicine, there was the sanctions on Iraq, estimated to have killed 1 million, mostly children, the acceleration of Israeli settlements, dropping cluster bombs on Yugoslavia, etc all right there.
But republicans only issue with those crimes is that Clinton didn’t kill enough foreigners.
Given what I know about the Yugoslav wars I can say with near absolute certainty that using cluster munitions on Yugoslavia (Serbia) was entirely warranted.
Ill feel sorry for them when the Serbian government stops trying to be little Russia. Until then I will propose that they deserve an increase in munitions saturation.
Unexploded cluster munitions don’t target Serbian politicians, they tend to hurt children more frequently than anyone else.
This is why it’s almost universally agreed that weapons that don’t discriminate between soldiers and civilians and continue killing long after a conflict has ended are a special kind of evil and a crime to use even in war.
The other reason being that less precise weapons just aren’t as effective at actually destroying military targets.
There is a reason they skipped past Biden and said Obama.
We all rallied behind Clinton.

No, using cluster munitions is never fucking warranted, the land is still blighted today, 25 years later.
