lets get to the point here and quit hiding things. Albanians were being abused, it wasn’t a religious war it was an ethnic war to begin with. Quit trying to turn this into an islamic vs christian war because we both know that not all albanians are muslim, and the albanians that are muslim are not extremist. Next how do you explain the fact that montenegro, and croatia also wanted to split from serbia? ITS BECAUSE THEY WERE BEING ABUSED BY RUSSIAN BACKED COMMIES. Serbia was a dead end country with an oppressive government. Kosovo, Albania, Bosnia, Croatia, and now Montenegro want to be independent and 100% free from oppressive anti capitalistic regimes that seem to take hold in belgrade and moscow.

No, Mr. Cold Warrior. Croatia left because it wanted a state of it’s own. Yugoslavia was basically always a fragile ethnic hodgepodge, and the only two things really holding it together was dictatorial control, and fear of a possible Soviet invasion, ala Czechsolakia, 1968. Montenegro left because it felt that it would be more likely to get into the EU if it was independent. And some Montenegrin supporters of independence had, shall we say, less altruistic motives. Google “Djukanovic” and “cigarette smuggling”.
