You mention Serbia, but the article is about Ukraine.

The US and Nato mercilessly bombed Serbia for 78 consecutive days in 1999, killing hundreds of civilians, including children. Biden takes credit for suggesting the bombings.

"I suggested bombing of Belgrade. I suggested that American pilots go there and destroy all bridges on the Drina,"

They've loved the US ever since.

Thanks to the US led death and devastation, the Serbs aligned themselves with the Russians, and China is using Serbia as a back door to transport weapons to the Russians.

The Serbs are also seeking to purchase French jets and Turkish drones.

Some part of the Serbian population are still upset they weren't allowed to continue ethnic cleansing of Kosovo and absorb it.

You can't become like your unjust aggressors.

If you lined up Nazi's in front of the ditch and shot them all without trial you're just the same as what you're fighting against.

Payback for the 1941 genocide, when 200,000 - 500,000 Serbs were slaughtered by the Croats and Bosnians in an ethnic cleansing of the 'degenerate race'. In order to save bullets, they used knives, hatchets and pitchforks. The slaughter was so brutal, the Nazis intervened and put an end to it.

"The victims were forced to dig their own graves before being hacked to death with axes. Among the victims was the local Orthodox priest and his son. The former was made to recite prayers for the dying as his son was killed. The priest was then tortured, his hair and beard was pulled out, eyes gouged out before he was skinned alive."

The Catholic priest who led the slaughter against the Orthodox Christian Serbs, was hanged by the Russians. He was never excommunicated by the Church.

One war crime for another is what you're defending.

Payback for 1941

WTF
Who cares
Everybody is dead
Let's say you were 10 years old at the time
That means you are over 90 now
Payback is as absurd as reparations
Reminds me of Kansas people still still upset with Missouri over civil war atrocities
Gee, get over it

To be consistent I assume you have the same thoughts on all the 'old' stuff that might have happened to blacks and indigenous people.

I've been consistently against reparations
And
Andrew Jackson, one of the worst Presidents ever if you look at his views on slaves and indians
Just visited the "Sharp Knive" home
Also known as "Indian killer" home
I still paid admission to see the wallpaper
The Hermitage is still magnificent despite the fact it was built on the work of over 150 slaves on the plantation
I took the hike out to the slave quarters building
Nothing left but a field and some plaques notating where the buildings were.
It's history
The good , the bad and the ugly
Uncensored history should be taught
