At home. most Americans wonder aloud why the nations of Europe have not been able to come together around this crisis. Knowing how pressing the needs are in our own country. many Americans voice frustration at the unending calls for one form or another of United States involvement in Bosnia. Many resent the United States in the role of global policeman again. and still many others are horrified by the pictures they see of refugees. of Bosnias senseless dead. of ethnic cleansing and genocide. of a young woman hanging from a tree in desperate pursuit of escape. It is this profound sense of frustration that brings us to this debate today. Proponents of S. 21 argue that this approach gives us the best of both worlds--allowing the United States to do something to resolve the conflict while doing nothing to further our own national involvement.
