Who started burning books in Cyrillic, firing Serb people from government jobs, fighting in the streets and killing those Croats that were for peace at the start? Whose president refused EC brokering and monetary help but only if Yugoslavia survived?

And it was Yugoslavian army that did those things.

The fact that you can't see the irony in supporting bombing of independent countries and at the same time not supporting it for those same stated reasons is unbelievable.

You're taking whataboutism to the next level. Are you actually comparing book burning (first time I even hear of this) and laying people off with a full scale Serbian invasion followed by civilian massacres? Was it some kind of preemptive strike? Or is it "liberating" the Croatian territory of civilians? Did the ancient city of Dubrovnik look at you wrong so to bomb the living shit out of it? Maybe because Serbians envy the big Croatian penises?

No, Serbia's leaders didn't like Croatia's and Slovenia's independence (or any ex-You country to be more exact), and did what Russia is doing now to Ukraine. So you're crying "not fair!" when US bombed Serbia to stop its expansionist appetite, but it was all right when Serbia's army invaded and wanted to annex Croatia as a part of "Greater Serbia". Cry me a river.
