“It was a continuation of what happened during WWII.”
While I see all kinds of references to the Grand Mufti and Croatian Muslim troops on this site, the fact is that the Ustasha (a Croatian nationalist movement) was hardly Muslim (most Croats aren’t). It was a continuation of WWI in the sense that peoples who were “given” to Serbia saw that as an affront to their national identity; they didn’t see being owned by Serbia as any better (and in some cases worse) than being owned by Austria-Hungary.
