The Serbians burnt the U.S. Embassy because the United States was the first country to recognize Kosovo's declaration of independence on February 17, 2010. For the Serbian people, Kosovo is the homeland of their race, religion, culture, and moral values. Taking away Kosovo from Serbia was like taking away Mount Rushmore from America, or taking Jerusalem from Israel, or taking Mecca from Saudi Arabia. However, the other dozens of countries that recognized Kosovo's Declaration of Independence didn't get their embassies burnt because Serbia has an aggressive history with the U.S. because the U.S. had involvement in the 1995 and 1999 bombings of the Serbian people in Bosnia and Serbia. The Albanians, on the other hand claim that Kosovo is theirs and they celebrated the declaration of independence.
