I’m trying to get a better understanding of the tensions between ethnic Serbs and Albanians in Kosovo and the actions of FR Yugoslavia and the KLA, ideally from a perspective that doesn’t conclude with “so we absolutely needed to bomb civillians with depleted uranium”

I’ve not really looked into any of :parenti:'s writing on this since he has some sus takes on Milosovic

IIRC, on Kosovo, Chomsky is much closer to Parenti, so you could search for his opinion too.

Correct me if I am wrong, but Chomsky basically presented how bombing of Yugoslavia (or what was left of it) was simply because they didn’t bend the knee to the US. That Kosovar “army” conducted a terrorist campaign and that Serbian forces did crimes only AFTER the NATO attack.
