With some of the things said here I would agree that Milosevic was far from any authentic nationalist much less an ultra nationalist and was in fact primarily a leftist opportunist. He was clearly pro-Yugoslav, rather then pro-Serbian, by orientation which can be seen by the fact that he maintained the name Yugoslavia for the state he ruled even though it was was in effect Serbia (being only one remaining). Two, apart from western backlash against leftist Yugoslavia which supported the unsuccessful coupe attempt in USSR (summer of 1991 if I remember correctly) there was another, bigger, reason for the backlash in my opinion. Tito's Yugoslavia was one of the founding leaders of anti-western Nonaligned movement and Titoist government helped organize many leftists anti-western movements in continents such as Africa, Asia and Latin America. This was done in a head on collision with countries like France, United Kingdom, USA or Israel. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Non-Aligned_Movement For as long as Milosevic was in power Yugoslav Titoism was alive and kicking in whatever shape and form and thus would have remained a target for the west until its full demise. I don't think Milosevic had any ideology, his only ideology was power and he would flirt with any ideology to have power. Throughout most of his reign he was leftist because for most of his reign it was the easiest way for him to stay in power.

It was never Albanian. What history do you study in schools? It was Illyrian (todays Albanians), befor you Serbs climbed down to the Balkans.

Illyria was the name the Romans gave the Balkans... are you trying to say you rightfully own italy too? Or do you just not know what it was called before Illyria (Roman).

Yes... so what was it called before the Romans had come and claimed it to be Illyria. The Romans called it Illyricum, after the Illyri, one of the larger and more dominant peoples in the region. Within Illyricum there were other people, related to the Illyri, such as the Delmati and the Dardani. All of the Roman regions (provinces) in the Balkan area were named after the people that lived in them prior to the Roman conquest: Moesia after the Moesi, Macedonia after the Macedoni, Thracia after the Thraci, Dacia after the Daci, Pannonia after the Pannoni.
