    Are we talking about the Bosnian war or the Kosovo war? My comments pertain to the Bosnian war and I think your quote is talking about Kosovo.

    Also I’m not sure where the “BE is an imperialist” notion comes from. He’s quite explicitly saying that you’ll usually be on the right side of history by taking the opposite position of any Western narrative but this is one of the rare exceptions.

      I think they’re related.

      I didnt say he was an imperialist. I said what I said. Frankly they’re both humans who seem to say weird things.

        Of course they’re related but there were real systemic atrocities committed by the Serbs against the Croats and Bosnians with NATO support of the weapons blockade and NATO then rewarded them for it with Republic Srbpska.

        Likewise NATO did Iran-Contra but that doesn’t mean they somehow support Iran. Maximizing casualties on both sides is always convenient for NATO.
