focus on the direct American actions to break up Yugoslavia.
Realpolitik 101-Law 101-513
"A year before the breakup of the Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia, on Nov. 5, 1990, the U.S. Congress passed the 1991 Foreign Operations Appropriations Law 101-513. This bill was a signed death warrant. One provision in particular was so lethal that even a CIA
report described three weeks later in the Nov. 27, 1990, New York Times predicted it would lead to a bloody civil war."
"A section of Law 101-513 suddenly and without previous warning cut off all aid, trade, credits and loans from the U.S. to Yugoslavia within six months. It also ordered separate elections in each of the six republics that make up Yugoslavia, requiring State Department approval of election procedures and results before aid to the separate republics would be resumed. The legislation further required U.S. personnel in all international financial institutions such as the World Bank and the International Monetary Fund to enforce this cut-off policy for all credits and
loans."
There was one final provision. Only forces that the U.S. State Department defined as "democratic forces" would receive funding. This meant
an influx of funds to small right-wing nationalist parties in a financially strangled region suddenly thrown into crisis by the overall funding cut-off."

If you want attack blatant bias, why donât you go after PBSâs Bringing Down a Dictator
How do you bring down a "dictator"? You bomb the country back to the stone age, place it under international sanctions. Then have the CIA funnel something like 50 million dollars to the opposition -Isnât that Illegal?
"In 1990, Milosevic was elected to the newly created office of President of Serbia in a multi-party election. He was re-elected in December, 1992."
"After two terms as President of Serbia, Milosevic was elected President of the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia in July, 1997."
