of 10 million or so. The US and Nazi Germany were powerful imperialist
nations bent on conquest. They use the pretext of defending "captive
nations" in order to extend their imperial control. I think a better way of
understanding the problem in Yugoslavia is through the analogy with
Sandinista Nicaragua, who faced a secessionist movement on the Atlantic
coast backed by US imperialism. <

The problem with this formulation is that the Sandinistas, who ruled
Nicaragua at the time, were more-or-less "good guys" (despite their
treatment of the Miskitos). Milosevic is not.
