>><< I guess the troops will be coming home from Kosovo and Bosnia now that Clinton is leaving office then... Bush has suggested this. Let's see what happens next. Bush doesn't want to use our troops to maintain peace, only to fight wars. He may get his wish by not preserving peace. But then again, our guys and gals in uniform were supposed to come home from Bosnia YEARS ago. The whole one year commitment thing Clinton promised never quite happened. Would you have preferred that entire area to be blown up in war and the massacres of hundreds of thousands of innocent families, or for our troops to stay there longer than a year?<< OK Barry, so what you are saying is that it is acceptable and wise to "put American troops in harms way" in Bosnia, a "war torn and lawless" land, and keep them there INDEFINATELY, to "maintain peace", but it is wicked and evil to do the same in Somalia, for the much more limited goal of escorting food supplies? I believe this flip flopping is called HYPOCRISY Barry. Derek
