I think every Member who is responsible worries about the consequences of that action. But what is clear is if we do not continue on the policy that President Clinton has initiated. we would find more death and destruction in Kosovo. Today. as we are on this floor. there are a quarter of a million refugees. There are thousands already dead. Do we wait to respond until there are tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands dead? Do we wait until the quarter million refugees become a million or a million and a half refugees? I say we cannot do that. And so I am privileged to be here and join with my colleagues to commend the armed forces for their role in this. their heroism. their technical proficiency.
