Given administration and public reluctance to deploy U.S. troops. there is only one option: The KLA must be given the means to defend their homeland. All reports indicate that the KLA is growing in number and remains willing to fight Serb aggression. Given the right equipment and limited training. the KLA could offer a significant deterrent to Milosevics murderous thugs. If the administration had armed the Kosovar Albanians in January when I first suggested that approach. I believe the daily tragic exodus of refugees could have been avoided. I ask unanimous consent the oped I wrote which appeared in the Washington Post back in January advocating this course of action be printed in the RECORD.
