Because the Serbs were committing massacres of civilians
You forgot to mention that part, wonder why?
The unspoken problem with “multicultural” countries, is that they NEED a dictatorship to keep them together. Only a culturally cohesive society can be democratic.
This appears to be the plan for destroying the US.
Which NATO HQs are you leaching off of?
“””””””Since we gave all our “good”cluster bombs to the Ukes, does this mean when we bomb them again we only use our “bad” cluster bombs?”””””””
I think you got it backward, the Ukes got the old ones.
“The US has a stockpile of cluster munitions known as DPICMs, or dual-purpose improved conventional munitions, that it no longer uses after phasing them out in 2016.”
“A US defense official told CNN the munitions Washington would be sending to Ukraine have a “dud rate” of 2.35% or lower, based on live-fire testing done as recently as 2020.”
It was a Muslim v Christian civil war, and the Muslims had better PR support.
We should have been on the Christian side.
You haven’t shot yourself in the mouth yet?
Do something useful - help FR out.
Wait. So NOW secession is bad? The US Government thought secession a wonderful thing when it was Croatia and Slovenia and Bosnia and Kosovo seceding from Yugoslavia.
The US government thought secession great and wonderful when the various Soviet republics seceded from the Soviet Union.
The rest of the world sees the US Government’s hypocrisy even if they manage to brush it under the rug via court historians and a completely controlled corporate media and big tech in the US.
WIKI
The war was part of the breakup of Yugoslavia. Following the Slovenian and Croatian secessions from the Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia in 1991, the multi-ethnic Socialist Republic of Bosnia and Herzegovina – which was inhabited by mainly Muslim Bosniaks (44%), Orthodox Serbs (32.5%) and Catholic Croats (17%) – passed a referendum for independence on 29 February 1992. Political representatives of the Bosnian Serbs boycotted the referendum, and rejected its outcome. Anticipating the outcome of the referendum, the Assembly of the Serb People in Bosnia and Herzegovina adopted the Constitution of the Serbian Republic of Bosnia and Herzegovina on 28 February 1992. Following Bosnia and Herzegovina’s declaration of independence (which gained international recognition) and following the withdrawal of Alija Izetbegović from the previously signed Cutileiro Plan (which proposed a division of Bosnia into ethnic cantons), the Bosnian Serbs, led by Radovan Karadžić and supported by the government of Slobodan Milošević and the Yugoslav People’s Army (JNA), mobilised their forces inside Bosnia and Herzegovina in order to secure ethnic Serb territory. The war soon spread across the country, accompanied by ethnic cleansing.
The Bosnian War was characterised by bitter fighting, indiscriminate shelling of cities and towns, ethnic cleansing, and systematic mass rape, mainly perpetrated by Serb, and to a lesser extent, Croat and Bosniak forces. Events such as the siege of Sarajevo and the Srebrenica massacre later became iconic of the conflict.
The Serbs, although initially militarily superior due to the weapons and resources provided by the JNA, eventually lost momentum as the Bosniaks and Croats allied against the Republika Srpska in 1994 with the creation of the Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina following the Washington agreement. Pakistan ignored the UN’s ban on supply of arms, and airlifted anti-tank missiles to the Bosnian Muslims.
after the Srebrenica and Markale massacres, NATO intervened in 1995 with Operation Deliberate Force targeting the positions of the Army of the Republika Srpska, which proved key in ending the war. The war ended after the signing of the General Framework Agreement for Peace in Bosnia and Herzegovina in Paris on 14 December 1995. Peace negotiations were held in Dayton, Ohio, and were finalised on 21 November 1995.
By early 2008, the International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia convicted forty-five Serbs, twelve Croats, and four Bosniaks of war crimes in connection with the war in Bosnia.[needs update] Estimates suggest over 100,000 people were killed during the war. Over 2.2 million people were displaced, making it, at the time, the most violent conflict in Europe since the end of World War II. In addition, an estimated 12,000–50,000 women were raped, mainly carried out by Serb forces, with most of the victims being Bosniak women.
There are maps that show simple division was not possible:

Of course, but do realize Serbia has always supported Russia, and always will especially after what NATO did to them.

NATO begins bombing Serbia, March 24, 1999……
Most Americans have absolutely no idea.
Geesh you are gullible.
The Balkanization of America.................
“The US Government thought secession a wonderful thing....”
Team Donkey would like to retain all its tax slaves.
Hopefully, more self-identifying "conservatives" will start to recognize that the GAE needs to be dismantled if there's to be any hope at all of saving what's left of this country.
The present situation on the border is of a piece of the "invade the world/invite the world" mentality that the U.S. has slavishly embraced at least since the end of WWII.
Of course, the way things are playing out at the moment, the American empire may be dismantled for us. We're moving into paper tiger territory at this point anyway. Not that that's a bad thing.
But so long as "conservatives" have a mindless hard-on for the exercise of American military force, chant "USA! USA!" at military fly-overs at NASCAR races and college football games, and think that we're "winning" whenever the Navy fires off a $1 million missile to shoot a $2,000 Houthi drone, it's hard to be optimistic.
So we do a flyover - which could be interpreted as an act of war - to support territorial integrity (whatever that means) of a country that should not be on our radar. This is a policy that only Lindsay Graham could love.
It was partly Tito’s fault.
He made a point of mixing up the different peoples and cultures (a typical leftist eutopian).
It was containable until his dictatorship ended, then the lid blew off.
We’re a “Global Force For Good” don’cha know?
“Tito may have been a dictator, but he at least kept them all from killing each other................”
Which was quite an accomplishment, really.
The Balkans as well as the former Austro-Hungarian Empire to the north have historically been difficult to govern. Just think of the Austro-Hungarian Empire in the early 20th century: It was a collection of heterogenous regions that shared pretty much nothing in common (different languages; different cultures; even different Christianities). And the Balkans, moreso.
We’re always on the side of the muslims.
