The amendment which I have introduced along with Senator REED and Senator MCCAIN states that it is likely there is going to be a need for a followon force for the very reasons the Senator from Virginia states. The Dayton accords civilian goals have not been achieved. and I do not see any prospect that they will be achieved by the middle of next year. I do not see any realistic prospect that we are going to see a million plus refugees resettled. war criminals captured. all the new arrangements. civilian arrangements that have been magnificently provided for in the Dayton accords achieved by the middle of next year. I just do not see that happening. But I do not want to see an openended commitment of American troops.
