Forcing families from their homes is self-defense?

: When the bombing started, the folks on the ground thought of it as WAR, regardless of whether any "mainstream liberals" experienced it as such. "Ethnic cleansing"? Maybe the Serbs were guilty of fighting back? How dare they!

Yes, forcing families from their homes, and raping women along the way, and executing young men, can be considered self-defense...but not in my book.
