Comparing post-Soviet Yugoslavia (not Bosnia) and the US is apples to oranges.
Multiculturalism and other modern ills had been born out of the boredom and a lack of a national focus that has plague our nation since the end of WWII. However, when faced with a challenge, such as we observed in the wake of 9/11, this society once again, as it has historically done, banded together to preserve the common good. I for one don't see THAT aspect changing.
That aspect never actually happened. The VAST majority of the support for GW Bush and his 'war on terror' has been from White, middle class America.
Ironically, It's really only White, middle and upper middle class Americans, who actually believe in the myth that regardless of color, we're all 'red, white, and blue' under the skin.
It's a comfortable myth that helps them sleep at night and look at the world through rose colored glasses during the day while the country rapidly changes into something far uglier than what it used to be.
It's this illusion that is in a big way responsible for White Americans as a whole being rather docile and compliant while their own alleged government has made them the only segment of society whom it is legal to discriminate against, and that government has gone out of it's way to encourage and institutionalize that discrimination.
The 9-11 attacks were, at best, a fart in the wind that has been blown way out of proportion to use as a pretext for police state laws and endless foreign wars.
The USA loses vastly more people than that on the highways every month. Most people in this country were unaffected directly by the attacks and most Americans still have their comfortable lifestyle. The 'pulling together' really required no great sacrifice and didn't really bother their lives much. It cost them little visibly and required about as much emotional effort as cheering for a favorite football team.
The biggest direct influence upon the people and their insulated lives, so far, from the 9-11 has been the media doing it's best to keep everyone whipped into a frenzy.
It's interesting how the drive it to push people into perpetual anger over the attacks, but you are never supposed to question the legion of discrepencies in the government's story about all that went on.
It's also interesting how they had legislation already prepped and ready to go, legislation that took years to write and refine. Legislation that removed the shackles from the fearsome beast called the Federal Government, a situtation long feared by the Founding Fathers.
Your opinion may have held true in, say, 1965 when the country was almost 95% White. Now that is no longer the case.
Thanks to multiculturalism, previous historical precedents about us all 'coming together', especially in a REAL crisis, are now increasingly obsolete.
The USA actually has become another Bosnia in a very short time. All it will take is just a spark, like an economic collapse.
Multiculturalism, was not 'born out of boredom', but has been a fully intentional campaign, who's well documented and openly stated goals is the destruction of American national sovereignty and national cohesiveness by the monied global power brokers. A unified, nationalistic America is the prime obstacle in the path of implementing a world government.
