Why did the US support mujahadeen in Afghanistan?
"There is no Al Qaida in neither Bosnia nor Kosovo.
There is a huge difference in mentalities between south Slavs and Arabs."
Yes, there is a huge difference in mentality between the Slavs and Arabs. However, there is not a huge difference in mentality between Bosnian Muslims, many of whom are of Turkish ancestry, and of a radical Muslim orientation. There is also less difference in mentality between the Albanians in Kosovo, the great majority of whom are Muslim. The Albanians seeking independence for Kosovo have the misfortune of being led by many groups of organized criminals (Mafia type ... and into all the same things as the Mafia ... ); these groups sought aid from Al Qaida in the push to kill or otherwise get rid of all Serbs in Kosovo. Also, the great majority of Albanians in Kosovo were resettled there, from Albania, during WWII by Hitler and Mussolini in order to lessen Serbian influence in the area.
Al Qaida saw opportunity for "Jihad" in both Bosnia and Kosovo. If you think 'there is no Al Qaida' involved in either struggle, you are sadly mistaken.
Which now brings the question, why did the U.S. pay Al Qaida in both these places? Because, due to mistaken policies as well as ignorance, the U.S. felt that Serbian Orthodox Christians-unwillingly under a socialist (i.e., 'remodelled' communist) government were its enemies, and saw the opportunity to hopefully cozy up with Islamic regimes, and come out as the 'savior of human rights' by attacking Serbia; the U.S. paid lots of money (it always does-a good employer!) to buy "allies" it thought would further its 'future policies' ... and, as has happened more than countless times in the past, it picked bad "allies," "allies" who came back to bite the hand that fed them ... and, as is usual in these misadventurous debacles, the hand that had fed its allies was probably not totally unworthy of being bitten. One cannot attempt to dictate to the world and get nothing in return but polite and subsevient cooperation ...
