 Clearly Clinton made a gamble -- the gamble that you could go to war without calling it a war. That you could use force without using ground troops. That you could fight a major fight without losing any Americans and still come out in the end proclaiming -- rightly so -- success. He gambled, and as usual with Bill Clinton, he won. |
| Clearly it would have been much better if (NATO) didn't have to bomb Montenegro because we would have made the distinction between Montenegro as the kind of power (western countries) would like to see ... and that Mr. Milosevic was really the problem, |
| Clearly, people like me who believe that ground forces are necessary in order to win the air war have been proven wrong. At the same time, I remain convinced that if we had done what I think we should have done, which is to deploy ground forces from day one in order to keep open the possibility of going in on the ground, we would have probably gotten this result a lot sooner and probably at less cost. |
| He has become a symbol of our inability to solve the problems in the Balkans. We would like to get rid of him but at the same time we are not willing to take the kind of military and other measures it probably would take to get rid of him. |
| I don't think we're so wary about war. We're wary about being misled. We're wary about costs of a war that didn't have to be waged. |
| I think she's proving the adage that where you stand depends on where you sit. It's moved her to a situation where the only tools are talk and travel. She can't send military in. Her role now is to talk and to travel, and she's doing it reasonably well. |
| In some notable ways, the new strategy document represents a return to the foreign policy of Bill Clinton. |
| It is the Serb army right now -- the Yugoslav national army -- that is ethnically cleansing whole sectors of Kosovo in the south, in a manner very much reminiscent of Bosnia, ... The question is, can we stand by and let it happen? |
| It is the Serb army right now -- the Yugoslav national army -- that is ethnically cleansing whole sectors of Kosovo in the south, in a manner very much reminiscent of Bosnia. The question is, can we stand by and let it happen? |
| NATO's future is very much at stake, ... NATO may in fact no longer be the instrument of European security and will become increasingly marginal in the foreign polices of its major members. |
| NATO's future is very much at stake. NATO may in fact no longer be the instrument of European security and will become increasingly marginal in the foreign polices of its major members. |
| One of the remarkable things about Macedonia is that it is the only republic that has emerged out of Yugoslavia in which there is a multi-ethnic government. |
| The clearest losers are the Serb people who withstood an 11- week bombing campaign in order to overcome the policies of their leader. Clearly the Kosovar Albanians are big losers. Thousands, if not tens of thousands were killed. |
| The easiest way for Milosevic to have a face-saving way to change his mind is for the Russians to be the messenger, for the Russians to say, 'We're willing to participate in this force, and therefore we will guarantee to you that this force is going to be neutral,' |
| The interesting question is why the Bush administration has decided to reverse course. Part of the answer, surely, lies in the fact that reality demonstrated the limits of its revolutionary foreign policy. |
