My comments may or may not be false, as you suggest. Comments are subject to personal interpretations. Facts aren't.

These are a few of the facts in my post.

Basing the right and wrong of the conflict on who was there fist is not valid. The ethnic Albanians were there first. -Fact. Slavs did not exist into the area until their southern migrations in the 7th century.

Kosovo is less than half the size it was in 1978. -Fact. The ruling Serbs have used their power to rest territory from Kosovo for the last twenty years, in an effort to rid themselves of the ethnic Albanians, until there was no place left for the ethnic Albanians to go. And no choice but to except exile and death or turn and fight.

Kosovo contains 3/4 of the mineral wealth in what is now Yugoslavia. That is the true motivation for the Serbs "holy patriotic war"-Fact. Even I can't relocate a country's natural resources through the power of rhetoric.

As far as the association between the Serbs and the Nazis' 'final solution', it's pretty simple. Two ethnic groups occupying a specified area. One group is far more powerful militarily than the other. That group decides to destroy the other group through genocide and "ethnic cleansing" ,absorbing it's land and stealing it's property, while using ethnic hatred and "holy sovereignty" as a justification.

The association seems pretty clear to me.
