Why those 800,000 left Kosovo is open to debate.
What is not open to debate is that the US began bombing Yugoslavia BEFORE those 800,000 left.
Why thousands of Serbs left Serbia for Italy, Hungary, Greece etc. is not open to debate. It was because of the bombing and the risk of being called to arms to defend Serbia. Ditto Kosovo.
Well, yes. Some speculate they left because Serbs burned down their homes and forced them to leave at gunpoint, while others insist they simply signed up for a walking tour of the Southern Balkans.
What is not open to debate is that the US began bombing Yugoslavia BEFORE those 800,000 left.
Simply not true. The US began bombing before those 800,000 arrived in Albania and Macedonia, but most had already left their villages by the time it started.
