Honestly, this doesn’t even make enough sense to be a shitpost

[–] magnetosphere@fedia.io 48 points 1 week ago (2 children)

I think, in this case, that’s what makes it a shitpost.

OOP asks a valid question, though. I don’t remember what Serbia did, either.

The actual answer is ethnic cleansing in Bosnia and Kosovo, the former of which was the first post-WWII genocide legally recognised by the ICJ

Moreover, as the meme indicates, their citizenry continues to feel as though the intervention was unwarranted. at least in large part. No state-level population is a monolith.

They know what they did, they just want to do it again.

Thank you. I had forgotten about that horrible little bit of history.

[–] rain_enjoyer@sopuli.xyz 13 points 1 week ago

It's also a reason why there's Bill Clinton statue in Prishtinë

If a Serbian nationalist hadn't shot the damn archduke of Austria then Hideki Tojo wouldn't've sank the majority of the US pacific fleet decades later.

I first read it as "archdude" and i hereby start a petition to normalize this word

I guess it's a shitpost because Hawaii is not technically covered by NATO...

True, it's the only member of the NPTO instead

P.S.

We still haven't forgotten 9/11.

[–] Agent641@lemmy.world 17 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

Weird how 9/11 happened on the 11th of September, the date lines up so perfectly, really makes you think 🤔

[–] OozingPositron@feddit.cl 7 points 1 week ago

The one from 1973 right?

[–] xiwi@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 1 week ago

Ah that's why we bombed Iran, got it
