If you want an honest opinion then don't ask loaded questions. But i'll pretend for a while that you didn't asking something like that and it was phrased along the lines of:

"Why do you think the US and UN decided to attack the serbs, and what do you think about the presumed ties to al Qaida."

Why? I don't know. The serbians were using soviet/russian equipment. Whether or not that implied a direct relationship, I dunno. That could have been a reason. Also the UN was their to protect the non-serbs. During the 1998-1999 era the serbs were winning so we went in and stopped them from doing so under the allegations of genocide. People here have pointed out they are either false (highly doubtful) or were overexagerated (plausible knowing the UN) I don't know why, I don't make those decisions I just live with them.
As for al Qaida, I would argue that al Qaida of 1998 and al Qaida of 2005 are two different beasts. The ties don't really mean that much because it's almost like comparing apples and oranges. If we are going to look at it that way then why would you propose backing communist soviet union supporters?

A) The old Yugoslavia was outside of the Warsaw pact - they were not military allies of the USSR.

B) The only difference between al-Qaeda of 1998 and al-Qaida of 2005 is that in 1998 is that al-Qaeda members -some of them Bosnian army vets some with Kosovo ties- were able to enter America unmolested in 1998-99 and allowed to plan out 9/11 without fear of being arrested during the Clinton admin.

This statement on it's own reveals the limits of your knowledge regarding Balkan affaris.
