She argues persuasively that outside intervention creates rather than solves problems and cannot be justified. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Johnstone shows that the 'War in Kosovo' was in reality the model for future destruction of countries seen as potential threats to the hegemony of the 'International Community', led by the United States.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Diana Johnstone\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0745319505\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780745319506\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Pluto Press (UK)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/20\/2002\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 328\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.00lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.63d","brand":"Diana Johnstone","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47520290210047,"sku":"9780745319506","price":31.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_9f30bad5-424f-43ea-ac99-6e0fb5e586b1.jpg?v=1762884694","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/fools-crusade-diana-johnstone-9780745319506","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
