Yes,

I think near half of those hear are liberal impostors from literally around the world.
My point was that the Author was a Serb and had an angle. His article was written from the viewpoint that genocide never happened or it's normal to behave in this way and good ole Milosevic was just a victim. In long lasting tradition it's a conspiracy combined with a revisionist interpretation of history where in the end the victims become the culprit and those truly at fault of these awful events get made into martyrs.

Now that he’s deed the “rumor mill” looses no breath to concoct a grand conspiracy where somehow he was murdered. Riiiiiiiiiiiight-

My point in the earlier post is that this is a story by a Serb for a Serb. It’s not news, rather wishful thinking based on assumptions. Normally this sort of stuff is defined as “editorial” but today the line between editorial and “news” has blurred as in near all media (CNN, ABC, MSNBC….NYT’s, Newsweek). This article is an extreme case of an author writing opinions and extrapolating on them to present a “I wish it were so” view as news.

But that’s just my opinion.

Are you saying that you must be a Muslim or a Croat or have origin from the one of NATO countries which attacked Serbia to be considered objective?

OK, so you claim that the genocide took place in Bosnia or Kosovo? Where and when?
