Kosovo: Can You Imagine? (2009)
Sadly one-sided account
Malagurski is something of a hero among Serbians and the Serbian diaspora. He has made himself a hero by making wholly one-sided accounts of both ancient and recent history, often based on 'factual sources' that have been totally discredited in both the mainstream media and often also in International Courts.
Whether his account in this film is exaggerated I don't know, however he throws away any plausible claim to objectivity by simply ignoring the attempted expulsion of virtually the entire Albanian population of Kosovo, which was the catalyst for NATO action there. This attempted expulsion (complete with well-documented evidence of rape, brutal violence, and systematic looting), was attempted by Serbian para-militaries acting under direct instruction from Milosevic making a last-ditch attempt to hang onto power.
I feel sorry for Serbians if they are being badly treated in Kosovo, if this is happening it does not bode well for long-term peace there, but who is really to blame for that happening? Milosevic was given multiple explicit warnings as to what would happen if he chose to continue impeding UN observers and encouraging inter-ethnic abuses.
