Just the title feels misleading, Yugoslavia didn't exist in practical terms when Nato bombed Serbia (Croatia, Macedonia and Slovenia was de facto gone).
I've to this day not heard a single good argument from the "anti-imperialists" of what the world should have done after multiple attempts with large peace treaties being violated.

Here's a much better video showing the time line.

If it was not for American intervention in Kosovo in 1999 my entire extended family would probably be refugees or dead. Fuck these leftist “anti-imperialists” that hate the west so much they resort to genocide apologia and love affairs with Milosevic and his type.
Take it with a grain of salt as the issue is a very emotional one for me. Had NATO not intervened, we would have had another Middle East perennial war for decades. Why?
It was painful to see the spiral of hate in action. Someone from one side killed a child, then someone from the other side killed a family. At this point the whole action was in rage. There was nobody who could stop the hate. Plus a million of other factors like who is dominating, who is controlling the media, religious issues, etc. A big mess. The UN mission was a total failure.
An then, after NATO bombings, the war stopped. Yes, it was wrong. Yes, they were afraid of flying low and killed civilians. But they never said it was good, everybody knew it was bad and immediately they set up a fund and help program for the victims.
Was there any other way to end this war? If so, please tell me.
