This hateful view of the Serbs was a huge lie propounded by the EU as a weapon to destroy Yugoslavia!  Why? Because Yugoslavia was the only state that could have successfully stood outside it in Europe.  To accomplish this, the EU supported thugs in Bosnia and Croatia who were as bad or worse than Serbia’s Milosević.

Worst of all the US participated in the bloody dismembering of Yugoslavia by contributing the bulk of the NATO troops who fought an aggressive war against a sovereign nation in violation of NATO’s defense-only charter.  The same United States which worries about fighting Muslims during Ramadan had no compunctions whatsoever about bombing Orthodox Christians on Easter.

The simple truth is that the US, NATO and the EU intervened on the side of the Muslims in Yugoslavia because they were pandering to the oil-rich Arab states.

• during World War II, the Allies betrayed the King of Yugoslavia in exile in London and supported Tito and his communists over General Mikhailović and the royalist forces;
  
• the “westernized” Croats established a fascist puppet state headed by a wacko who murdered Jews and Serbs and forced Serbs to convert to Catholicism at gunpoint (as opposed to the Serbs who have no record of anti-Semitism);
  
• Kosovo is the heart of Serbia—the Muslim Albanians were brought in by Tito and the Communists in an effort to “divide and conquer” the royalist Serbs;
  
• the only sin of the Bosnian Serbs was that they wanted to stay united with their fellow Serbs, rather than forced into a state of permanent subjection to the Bosniak Muslims back by NATO guns;
  
• the EU, NATO and the US have promoted self-determination for the Slovenians, the Croatians and the Bosniaks, but not for the Bosnian Serbs;
  
• before the Dayton Peace Accords, the Bosnian Serbs controlled 75% of Bosnia-Herzegovina, in a huge sacrifice for peace, they willingly cut that back to 49%;
  since the peace accords and under the NATO occupation, tens of millions of dollars of international aid has been poured into the Muslim side of Bosnia-Herzegovina, and almost nothing has found its way to the Serb side;
  since the NATO occupation, the allies have been teaching the Serbs “democracy” by disallowing a majority of the officials they elect because those officials want union with Serbia.

Let me make one more point about Kosovo. Kosovo Polje (field) is to Serbs what the Alamo is to Texans—the place of a great defeat which led directly to their independent nationhood.

I wonder if Texans would be willing to let a majority of Mexicans voted San Antonio back to Mexico?

• the Serbs are not perfect;
  
• there were certainly atrocities; any perpetrated by Serbs were done in the heat of anger and in retaliation for atrocities visited upon them by the Muslims;
  
• the Serb Orthodox Patriarch has forbidden the attack on the religious institutions of any other group and has insisted “we only protect our own”;
  Christians are being persecuted today in Muslim controlled Kosovo and Bosnia and this will only get worse if Kosovo is granted independence.

Who gains from this misdirected US policy?  What strategic interest does the US have?
