Mengistu. and I want the world to know. as well as my colleagues. that we are not doing it because we think Mr. Mengistu is a good guy. We are doing it because we want the U.N. in there. because we want the bombing of Massawa stopped completely and not resumed. and because we want the Falasha Jews released and able to emigrate wherever they want to go. So. because of these things I. along with my colleague. the gentleman from Michigan . will agree to withhold this resolution at this time. but we reserve the right. if this carnage starts to reraise its ugly head. if Mr. Menglstu starts to extract more vengeance upon innocent people in that country. we reserve the right to bring this legislation back to the floor and pass it posthaste. and I have no doubt that we would pass it unanimously in this body. if we were to choose to bring it back.
