>>That's why I asked if you had an ideas on a resolution.<<
I would say:
First find out if an army of willing soldiers can be raised from amongst the refugees. If so, then train them, arm them, and give them air support for a counterattack to re-take Kosovo.
This way you get the necessary ground troops without ruffling the feathers of NATO countries.
In the meantime, if you're going to raise that army, start targeting military targets instead of civilian, while prepping the place for a land offensive. This would probably include oil tankers and the like.
If an army of willing soldiers can't be raised from the refugees, call the whole thing off, and stop the bombing. We need to find out how important Kosovo is to the people who've actually been dislodged from there.
Another, probably less fair but perhaps workable approach would be to bring in the B52s and make Belgrade into a rubble heap. That kind of hurt upon the Serbian populace might cause the toppling of Milosevic. I would never personally support this although I do think it could work.
It's been said in any case that the people of that area on all sides have "hardened hearts." If this is true and cannot be fundamentally changed, again I don't see why we're there.
FWIW
