<<Clinton has never adequately consulted with Congress or the public in any of his military misadventures. Some would consider him to be in violation of the War Powers Act.>> Others consider him to be in violation of the UN war act.

On Stratfor--- I think that they are almost right. A NATO guarantee of disarming the KLA would be worth dropping severe preconditions limiting troop composition, but the Russians, and perhaps other Slavic troops, must be involved. Also, Milosevic might insist upon an indemnity to repair bombing damage. If we can guarantee re- entry for those who have been driven out already, we ought to agree. And we will have to guarantee that there will be no attempt to bring Serbian officials before a war- crimes tribunal, regardless of what we find. Again, it is worth agreeing to. On your own observations, although I think that his consultation was inadequate, I support the principle of latitude in these matters, and would not like to test the scope of the War Powers act. Otherwise, I agree with you in spades!
