I had a Serb co-worker in Budapest. We were walking home after work one night, and he told me that an American ICBM had destroyed the top 4 floors of his mother's apartment building in Novy Sad the night before. We stood on the gorgeous Chain Bridge, looking down at the Danube together, just trying to take in the fact that there was a war going on to the south... on this same river... where his family were being bombed by my country. I still can't process that moment.
