Why did george h. w. bush choose not to intervene in yugoslavia’s civil war?

The Yugoslavia´s  civil war was a magnificient replay of the  1912-14 Balkan wars: Religion-Muslin, Roman Catholic. Orthodox factions, Cultural Germanic ( Slovenia-Croat) vs South  Slave vs Albanian, political Servian Vs everybody else.

There is a point of view about this subject that says: The advisers of president Bush felt that military action in the former Yugoslavia would more likely resemble the morass of vietnan rather tha the succes of teh persian Gulf War. It would be an  un- resolved conflict.

the most famous of all the units fighting in cuba, the "rough riders" was the name given to the first u.s. volunteer cavalry under the leadership of theodore roosevelt. roosevelt resigned his position as assistant secretary of the navy in may 1898 to join the volunteer cavalry. the original plan for this unit called for filling it with men from the indian territory, new mexico, arizona, and oklahoma. however, once roosevelt joined the group, it quickly became the place for a mix of troops ranging from ivy league athletes to glee-club singers to texas rangers and indians.
