Do you really believe what you say?
The break up of Yugoslavia in the 90s was very violent and for that I do blame the politicians of the time - Milosevic in particular, but people like Mesic, Izetbegovic and Tudjman too. The NATO interventions were in response to nasty killings - particularly in Bosnia - and the Kosovo intervention was a continuation of the distrust that Milosevic had built up for a considerable period of time. All this was fermented by selfish nationalist ambitions in the Balkans.
Another person with great nationalist ambition was Hitler. In WW2 Serbia was wronged and fought on the right side. However, if you think that the events of the 90s were because Serbia was wronged - rethink. Milosevic could have negotiated peacefully, but chose to use military means, often against civilians. He dragged Serbia quite needlessly into sanctions mainly just to keep himself in power.
I am a great supporter of Serbia and I believe that Kosovo should remain part of Serbia. However, I cannot stand by and see the reputation of Serbia undermined by silly comparisons that do not show understanding of the terrible political mess that Milosevic dragged the Serbian people into. It is an insult to use the suffering of Serbian people caused by the incredible wickedness of Hitler as a defence for the inept and selfish politics of Milosevic.

The question is do you know what you are talking about?
First of all, Slobodan Milosevic was not a nationalist, a pure Communist who only seeks power. Milosevic could care less about the Krajina Serbs, Montenegrin Serbs, Bosnian. What we cared about is to keep Yugolsavia together as a sovereign entity.
If Milosevic was a nationalist, then he would have not watched Krajina be engulfed by Croatia. However, as a politician, he firmly warned both Babic and Martic after them to negotiate a peace settlement that was offered to them by Tudjman.
Milosevic as a politician negotiated for peace at the Athens accord with Prime Minister of Greece at the time Mitsoutakis for peace. Karadjic finally agreed to the Vance-Owen plan but it was voted down by the Bosnian parliament.
Milsevic many times tried to negotiate peace in Kosovo, he allowed the OSCE mission in and pulled the police out on numerous occasions.
To try to equate Milosevic to some Nazi is proposterous; as Draza Mihailovic received an unfair Communist show trial by Tito's Communists. Slobodan Milosevic was centre stage in a show trial run by the new world order.
