Novak Djokovic, the world’s top tennis player who grew up in Belgrade as NATO air strikes blasted the Serbian capital in 1999, hit out at US plans to take military action against Syria.
Serb star Djokovic as well as former women’s number one Ana Ivanovic both vividly recall sheltering from the attacks that were launched against the rule of Serb hardman leader Slobodan Milosevic.
Djokovic, 26, said Sunday that any attack against Syria would be ill-advised and counter-productive.
“I’m totally against any kind of weapon, any kind of air strike, missile attack. I’m totally against anything that is destructive because I had this personal experience, I know it cannot bring any good to anybody,” said Djokovic.

Probably because he experienced it himself, it's useful to get the point of view from someone who knows what happened.

Actually, he's relatively smart to know what's going on, and he experienced your bombings. They did nothing against Milosevic's rule.
