Remember Ron Brown, Clinton's Secretary of Commerce, was killed in a crash on approach to an airport in Yugoslavia:

"While attempting an instrument approach to Dubrovnik Airport, the airplane crashed into a mountainside. "

"...in 1996, Ron Brown, then-secretary of commerce in the Clinton administration, was killed, along with 34 others, all but two of them Americans, when their Air Force CT-43 plane crashed into a mountainside near Dubrovnik, Croatia. An Air Force inquiry blamed the crash on pilot error and a poorly designed landing approach.

In 1993, President Bill Clinton had appointed Brown the first African-American secretary of commerce. When he died at age 54, Brown was heading a delegation of business executives and government officials to the war-torn region to explore investment opportunities in the former Yugoslavia.

...

In March 2011, the newly built U.S. Mission to the United Nations building in New York City was named in Brown’s honor at a ceremony in which Clinton, President Barack Obama and Susan Rice, the U.S. ambassador to the United Nations, spoke."

Good info. Remember that very well. It was the early days of Arkencides, the point being that it was dangerous to be friends with the Clintons. The Arkencide list was already at about 25 individuals back in 1996 and the list just kept growing.
