One unique feature to the former Yugoslav situation is what I call the
"Bangladesh" factor.... when India was partitioned, you ended up with West &
East Pakistan... One Country with ENTIRELY different ethnic groups (the Sindhs
in W. Pak & the Bengali's in E. Pak).... BUT THE WEST PAKISTANIS ENDED UP WITH
ALL THE MILITARY ASSETS !!!!!!!!!! So when the E. Pakistanis wanted to form
their own nation, the W. Pakistani's took all the military assets and bombed
the &^%$# out of E. Pakistan (what is now Bangladesh)..... I see a similar
situation here.... where in the "former Yugoslavia" (created in Treaty of
Versailles after WWI and then held together as a Soviet bloc nation after
WWII) the vast majority of the military assets are managed out of
Belgrade.... SUPPOSEDLY (AS PREVIOUSLY), for the BENEFIT OF ALL THE PROVINCES
OF THE FORMER YUGOSLAVIA.... But the Serbians control the Belgrade Province
(Serbia).... So guess who has all the armaments ???? NOT the Albanian
Kosovars, NOT the Bosnians.... Regardless of past history of cruelty against
the Serbs, it's the Serbs right now who control the vast amount of weaponry
that was previously supposed to protect ALL the people.... a potential
Bangladesh redux.
