We have watched for nearly 5 years as these neighbors have cruelly and methodically torn each other apart. On the surface at least. the Dayton agreement does hold promise for peace. It allows the thousands of refugees. theoretically at least. to return to their homes. it removes the foreign "holy warriors" from Bosnia. it withdraws heavy weapons. it preserves the October 5 ceasefire. and hopefully. it will stop the genocide and other atrocities that have plagued that part of Europe for far too long. My primary concern with the agreement and the NATO mission it calls for is the requirement of having to send American ground forces to implement its provisions. This should be. essentially. a European mission.
