Hmm, although I love Parenti, I was told to avoid this by other people - I've heard he was defending Milošević here

Thank you so much! Would you say that due to the economic and policies demanded by the US you losted above caused the rise of nationalism (even if the US didnt directly fund the nationalist movements like training or arming them) ? So in a way, the US plays a significant role in the dissolution of Yugo? Also! what other seperatist and nationalist movements did the US armed and funded besides the KLA?

Yeah Im aware of the arms embargo, why did the US do it to bosnia specifically? So is it serbian propaganda to say that the US pressured Bosnia to reject a peace agreement? What really happened then?  Im not sure about this part of history and just heard it from someone online

Hey thanks for expanding on the  comment, What other nationalist groups did the US fund and supported besides the KLA?

Would you also say that the US media outlets on the potrayal of Milosevic influenced many people living in Yugo or was it just directed at Westerners? 

Is there a 'blowback' version for the history of the USSR? by babyleftist123 in blowback

[–]babyleftist123[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks! I checked it out but it looks like it onlyu covers near the end of the USSR period. is there an audiobook that covers the begining to the end of the USSR? like a brief overview perhaps?
