You are being too clinical. I get the picture of a Kosovo child, who hasn't eaten for several days, who has seen his parents murdered, and has little hope for the future, extending his hands towards you for help.

Do we tell the child NO! Do we tell the child that he must die because of a comma missing in the loosely constructed International law books? Hmmmmm!? Perhaps we could try. Perhaps the child will understand.

"Hey kid! Hey kid! It's all OK. Really. It is OK. We know that your parents are dead, and now your other relatives may be killed also, but it is OK! According to International Law, Milosevic has the right to do this."

Hmmmmmmm!? The child doesn't seem to be listening. Hmmmmmm!? Oh! Too bad. The child just died. Oh well. Let's try to convince the next child.
