President. sixty years ago. as Europe moved increasingly close to war. a number of philanthropic organizations came to the aid of those desperately trying to escape the Holocaust. Today. many of those same organizations have turned their attention to helping the latest victims of genocide. The American Jewish Committee. for example. has raised over $800.000 in humanitarian aide for the Kosovar refugees. As in World War II. these organizations recognize that they cannot stop the genocide without support from the world community. In the case of Kosovo. that means that NATO has had to bring its military might to bear on Slobodan Milosevic.
