As Incongruências de Claire Short (via Samizdata)
A Ministra Claire Short que se opões à intervenção no Iraque, ameaçando inclusivamente demitir-se, tinha a seguinte opinião quanto aos bobardeamentos na Sérvia (também não autorizados pela ONU):
The truth is this is a war. Wars are vile... It's against an evil, monstrous regime that has caused a terrible war and displacement, raping and killing people. Now it is doing it again. This evil will be reversed. We will succeed, the sooner the better... But we will do what is necessary. It will be done and we will look after people and get them home...Please everyone think what is at stake here... This is a challenge for our generation. We must do what is right otherwise evil will triumph, Europe will have fascism back in it and all the instabilities that will lead to increasing conflict... Please be steady everyone. We've got to do what is right and we will do it.
- Clare Short, May 23, 1999, on the need for war against the Serbs (not OK'd by the UN).
