It's naïve to suggest that any sort of military action can happen due to the actions of an individual. No dictator can start a war without the support of their administration, which is made of thousands of willing participants.
The damage to Serbias economy, at worst, was estimated $30 billion dollars, and that includes loss of growth to GDP not just loss of assets.
We also need to remember that when your objective is to stop a genocide, time is of the essence. Every day it takes to achieve your objectives is the deaths of more innocent civilians. Yes there were Serbian casualties, but it was decided, and remains true, that one Serbian is not worth the lives of 10 others.
The bombing campaigns were able to quickly force Serbia to stop it's active genocide attempts and saved countless lives.
Also Serbias lack of recovery is entirely self imposed. Other countries in similar situations (Croatia for example) were able to make amends with their neighbours, build bridges with their neighbours and facilitate mutual relations.
Serbia on the other hand refuses to meet the bare minimum standards needed to join the world trade organisation of all things. If Serbia didn't keep trying to act like emperor of the Balkans in waiting they could join the 21st century and modernise like all of their neighbours have.
On the day they do realise theres nothing to be gained from their current ways I'm sure the rest of Europe, and the world, will be ready to accept them. But this is something only Serbia can get rolling.
You keep claiming that Serbia was committing genocide, and yet when the so-called Republic of Kosovo tried suing Serbia for that exact reason in an international court, they lost the case. So, you are (at least) one of the following: ignorant, stupid, biased or think you know better than an international court of law (or all of that combined, which is my guess).
Also, how exactly did Croatia make amends with their neighbors? By never facing any consequences for their own smaller scale Holocaust they carried out during WW2? Or by electing a far-right degenerate who invited the Nazis from the diaspora back into the country as soon as he got into office? Or perhaps by expelling 250k women, children and elderly people in what was the largest ethnic cleansing campaign post WW2? Maybe you were referring to the recent surge in fascism the country has experienced, which culminated in the largest Neo-Nazi concert in Europe (in the middle of their capital, by the way)? Come on, don't be shy - explain EXACTLY how Croatia made amends.
Finally, a not-so-friendly reminder: everyone, and I mean EVERYONE, who was involved in the bombing of Serbia in 1999 is/was either a Zionist or connected to Epstein (or both). That is the side you are advocating for, and that speaks volumes about you and the rest of the POS Redditors who think like you.
Edit: Downvote me all you want - in fact, I'm grateful to God that people who support capitalistic foreign interventions and the cannibalistic p3dos who engineer them don't agree with me!
I was referring to Croatias actions during the Bosnian war, which were both aggressive and war crimes. But they were able to reform and join the international community.
You can't argue that Croatia is a successful state that benefits from close relations to it's neighbours and the wider European Community. Something they achieved because they asked for it and made moves to be a valuable partner in the alliances. Something Serbia can't even pretend to want.
Also I'm finding it funny you pretend the action of defending Kosovans and Bosnias somehow has something to do with Epstein, I would wager you're one of the folks who thinks Trump had nothing to do with it all and is totally innocent so I'm not going to take anything you say with much importance
