Germany, France and to an extent Britain were determined to dominate the EU. A large country like Yugoslavia, a maverick by nature was not acceptable in a future EU and stands to challenge the three self appointed dominant nations. The brutal nature of the Yugoslavian break up and ethnic warfare gave the three dominant EU nation moral and PR cover to break up Yugoslavia. By themselves they did not have the military power to do it, so they needed a dupe dumb and ignorant enough to play along. The dupe is Pres Clinton and the US. Even though the US/NATO won the war it set into motion strategic ramifications - the unification of Russia and China against the US. Clinton in one stupid move undid what the US succeeded doing in the Cold War, separating Russia from China.
LOL. Let me know where to send more tinfoil for your hat collection.
