I'm NOT trying to paint a picture of the Bosnians as heroic rebels, or oppressed victims, or whatever. All I'm saying is that Serbian troops DID attack Bosnia-Herzogovina in a REALLY HORRIFIC WAY. This ABSOLUTELY DOES NOT make the Bosnians the "good guys" - but I think stopping the Serbs was the right call on the part of NATO and the US.

That's why is said,"Your lack of depth about the history of that region is what is troubling." I should add, that also includes recent history.

You're absolutely right about the "recent history" in the region - as soon as the Bosnian and Albanian Kosovars get some breathing room, they turned around on the Serbs in vicious acts of terrorism and brutality. We've been seeing that for years.

I would be interested in your view of the Yugoslav Wars. In your view, did the Serbs launch any incursion into multi-ethnic regions with the aim of driving out other militias? Or were they parked at home this whole time, being killed by Muslims?
