When Yugoslavia dissolved the Europeans should have ordered Milosovic to a conference to redraw the borders. They should have backed up that threat with real firepower to shut the Russian up. Instead the Serbs thought that the big bear would save them so they went on a killing spree. The Europeans screwed around while the Bosnian Vice President was extracted from an armored personnel carrier manned by French troops and executed. Armed Dutch Nato soldiers were handcuffed to railings as civilians were murdered. After the situation was beyond saving the Americans were called in to bomb Belgrade. If the job had been done right the Serbs would have had a better deal and Milosovic would have been dead in 1993. Tens of thousands of innocents would have lived and radical Islam would not have gotten in. The key point is that the loss of Kosovo is due to the conduct of the Serbian government and army which destroyed what was otherwise a valid claim. The incompetence of the Europeans encouraged aggression and still does.
