Thats completely wrong. Serbs are quite pro-Palestine and Serbia recognized Palestine a long time ago. The only reason why Vucic cooperates with Israel is because they sell him spy software and other dissent suppression tech he can than use to suppress opposition in Serbia. Hopefully Vucic will be ousted in the next elections overall the situation aint really looking good for him.
Edit: Also Vucic probably sees Israel as a shortcut to the White House and of course winning the support of the US would be great for his regime. And it wouldnt be the first time the US backed a dictator.

I have an serbian coworker that came back from maternity leave and on the first day she started "I would kill all these migrants, disgusting smelly browns" and a couple of years before that she was saying to me (for context, I'm an metalhead) "I would kill all these metalheads and those shiptar cunts".
Are Serbs just born with genocidal tendencies or something?

The goal is 80,000 combat drones within 2 years. The Balkan country’s Yugoimport SDPR state arms producer will open a drone plant with Elbit Systems, according to Serbia’s BIRN news service. The report said the Israeli company will own 51% of the future plant.

So you don’t know how that works at all. The money the US gives Israel is spent on US military equipment and research. Also the missile defense program is a massive portion of that because. It costs 100,000 to 150,000 each time to knock out those rockets targeting cities and towns for the vast majority. The US also gets a lot of that research back for its own defense. They can buy a small percentage of Israeli stuff, but that is only in Israel and is being phased out.

There are a few. HaKirya (Camp Rabin) in Tel Aviv. It's the central military headquarters and I believe also serves as a base. It's located in the heart of Tel Aviv, surrounded by residential towers, Ichilov Hospital, and the HaShalom train station, and Azraeli Center (which contains a large shopping center among other things).
Glilot Base - Herzliya: Located less than 2 km from northern Tel Aviv residential zones, it has military intelligence units, including Unit 8200, and the National Defense College.
Tel HaShomer Base - Ramat Gan: Located near the city of Ramat Gan and bordering the Sheba Medical Center, which is Israel's largest hospital.
Haifa Naval Base: Situated in a densely populated metropolitan area in Haifa, near the Rambam Healthcare Campus and public beaches.

That’s wonderful. And do you honestly believe that the terrorists attacking Israel have any compunction attacking these sites due to the fact they’re supposedly in the middle of cities?

Where I don’t know any military base in Tel Aviv? Really seem to be spread out protecting people from those targets.

No, goalpost I admitted I was wrong in that one instance. Why don’t you name other ones though? Not command centers where no weapons are kept. Keep pretending its military bases are in the center of cities. Which infers most. They built them away because people don’t like tanks and jets breaking their ear drums. I mean their society is built around people firing rockets. Places of safety are littered around Israel. The coast of Tel Aviv is the center of the city. Just like all port cities in the world. That’s where everything is. Hamas and Hezbollah rarely target anything militarily. Hamas was targeting civilians for the most part on Oct 7th. Just went to villages to go on psychotic sprees and steal bodies with a few captives. Your statement was incorrect just like the last guy.

And before that they suffered genocide at the hands of the Ustaše regime during WWII. Honestly, they seem like birds of a feather with Israel in that regard, going from victim to oppressor at different points in time. More so if you take into account the victim complex that people of both countries so often seem to carry, despite their current circumstances.
Edit: Also having land disputes with neighboring countries/people, i.e. Kosovo and Palestine. Not the same situations, but they rhyme.

[No it didn't.](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bosnian_genocide_case) And it's not an opinion but proven it court. Although the narrative that it did is still very present and pushed.
Serbia is also not in NATO so it's security depends on it's own capabilities alone, so this kind of policies make perfect sense. But again, that is not the narrative.

From the link:
> Serbia has violated the obligation to prevent the Srebrenica genocide; Serbia has violated its obligations under the Genocide Convention by having failed to transfer Ratko Mladić to ICTY; Serbia has violated its obligation to comply with the provisional measures ordered by the Court
So it’s just a matter of technicality then.
And if perhaps Serbia’s security is so important to it then perhaps it should adopt policies more favorable to NATO rather than going against the grain of NATO’s policy direction every single time.

SaphirRose3 days ago

1. It's not a matter of technicalities. There is a huge difference between Serbia could have done more to dissuade the foreign Government in Pale not to commit war crimes, and "Serbia committed a genocide". Plus the two governments did not like eachother to put it kindly, and there was even a blockade and sanctions at the time from Serbia's side.
2. At the time of judgement Ratko Mladić was indeed not found, but he was found later and immediately transferred to Hague. So it was corrected.
3. Serbia actually does have favourable policies towards NATO, in fact there are combined military drills every year, sometimes multiples between NATO and Serbian Armed forces. Also NATO and Israel are very close as well... So nothing is actually being crossed here.
