The Dirty Hand of Serbia in WW1

  Most historians now recognize the fact that a) Serbian military intelligence was involved in the assassination of Arch-Duke Ferdinand, b) the ultimate goal of the Serbs was to create a greater Serbia, and c) the method to accomplish this was to knock off Austria-Hungary via the getting of Southern Slavs under their auspices to revolt................................................................................Look, I get it, Austria-Hungary was imperialistic (though still a piker when compared to France and Great Britain) and the annexation of Bosnia-Herzegovina was probably unjust. But just like those Japanese imperialists, they were late to the table and so you get what you CAN get.......And, besides, the Serbs themselves had recently plucked off Macedonia and Kosovo from the Ottoman Turks and, so pot, kettle, black, I say....................................................................................P.S. And, again, I challenge anybody to look at a map of the world in 1914 and with a straight face tell me that the biggest threats to freedom in the world were Germany and Austria-Hungary. Yes, the Kaiser was a tough customer and hard-core nationalist (ditto, Joseph of Austria) but at least he didn't rule over hundreds of millions of black and brown skinned people with ruthlessness and pretend to be enlightened about it.......Oh, and, yeah, I hate the British.
