You are right. They were. Serbs were at fault as well. Maybe the most.

But that was not the reason I brought up the bombing - I brought it to show how grudges could affect someone's behavior. Just like it could have influence mine when I was checked, just like how it could influence anyone - even the US people.

I never thought about shaming anyone - especially the US or you guys for the upvotes/downvotes.

If it's true that you were not trying to shame anyone, then I'm sorry for my outburst. At the same time, you just threw a link in at the bottom of your post with the line "For the people that forgot". No explanation, no justification. It seems out of place. It literally has nothing to do with story. At all. That was the reason for my outburst.

No need to be sorry - we just misunderstood each other, although the wording was a bit harsh. You are right - I should have provided the context. I apologize. I'll remove the link.

edit: cannot remove the link for some reason

Meh, it's probably best if it stays up anyways. Hopefully people will read my response to it and learn that overreacting is unhealthy.
