Wasn't Kosovo a NATO action? Not sure.

It was Clinton who finally got the UN dues approved by making a deal with the right to lifers.

But Bush did make this a UN issue, he did not have to but he did and now he needs to continue or he will be acting in defiance.

You are right Stowboat. Clinton didn't have a UN mandate to go into Kosovo. I don't even think he got a thumbs up from the US congress.

Don't you remember all the peace protesters? Ummm, no? okay.
Don't you remember the Clinton being called a fascist, hitler-like, the greatest threat to world peace? Ummm, you don't?

Not correct. The Kosovo mission was a NATO mission. It was NATO forces that went into Kosovo (U.S. of course is part of NATO). And here is a link with the direct involvement of the U.N.
