Voting has begun in Bosnia in an election dominated by nationalist rhetoric and a stagnant economy.

A good 2000 pages by three scholars who were present during the wars in Yugoslavia and did not buy the Western political and media simplifications and blame game.

Neither did they buy the Western ‘peace’ making, the results of which can be seen in today’s Bosnia, Kosovo, Macedonia, Serbia and Croatia.

You can’t fool all of the people all of the time but you can fool quite a proportion of the people most of the time – but not forever.

If there is one thing that should be abundantly clear by now it is this: As brilliant as the West is at fighting wars as lousy it is as a mediator and peacemaker – a major reason it is going down in relation to the rest of the world. By and large that process started in Yugoslavia.

Interesting too?  From Obama to Trump
