I don't want to straw man you. You asked a good question, and I agree that there should be more documents written from the Serbian point of view. Getting both sides (or in the case of the Fed. Rep. Yugoslavia, all sides) is important. That's how I figured out that the 1947 U.N. Partition Plan was ridiculous. Nobody would allow a people to increase land ownership from 6% to 55% without a fight.

However, you do realize that under the leadership of Slobodan Milosevic tens of thousands of Bosnian Muslims and Catholic Croats were killed?

National Geographic had an article years ago concerning the expulsion of the Serbs from Croatia. That is the first instance I remember of the use of the phrase ... ethnic cleansing.

We will all learn soon that we backed the wrong horse in that race.

The Serbs dont have a trillion dollars like the US for
a huge military, prisons, great walls to keep out the Turk,etc.
They did not commit genocide at Srebenica, it was self-defense. They are getting picked off here and there
and are going to lose demographically. That was just the last gasp. Thats why there is such a huge migration into the US that no one speaks of. Phoenix now has a large number of ex-Serbs who decided they cant fight the US and the Muslims at once.
