<p>Interesting view point from the author, but I think he could've touched on further how Serbia should learn that walking forward whilst looking backwards (the past) is only a path to collision. Regarding the comment from Milton « how one can call Serbs aggressors when they were trying only to protect their right to live on the land they lived for centuries ». Maybe Milton should be reminded that it was the Croats that allowed Serbs to settle in their lands when they were escaping the Turkish occupations of Serbia. This is how Serbs want to repay the Croats for allowing their ancestors a safe sanctuary....Let's just take their land instead. It's interesting that prior to WW2 there were far more German people intergrated in other European countries for hundreds of years, I wonder if it would've been OK for NAzi Germany to use the same argument the Serbs have been using when it comes to « Protecting their right to live on the land they lived for centuries ».....I wonder.</p>

<p>Most of the things said here I can agree with but one thing i don't understand, how one can call Serbs aggressors when they were trying only to protect their right to live on the land they lived for centuries. Percentage of Serbs in Croatia was some say 33%, some say 18% in 1931. This was greatly reduced to by genocide carried out in WW2 (<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_War_II_persecution_of_Serbs" class="spip_url spip_out auto" rel="nofollow external">http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_War_II_persecution_of_Serbs</a>) and further reduced with a help of Western Europe and US in period from 1991 to nowadays to 4%. Can you say these numbers and facts are not true ? Of course it is all true, how can you then talk about Serbs being aggressors ?</p>
