So we did know that. So I am wondering how many of the Kosovar Albanians are dead today who would be alive if we had not gone in there and bombed. I have to say also that when I was in Tirana with witnesses. with newspapers. with the media from Americawho did not repeat this. by the wayI interviewed everyone I could in that refugee camp outside of Tirana. They were doing all right. They were well fed. They were taken care of. I think they were as well taken care of as you would expect refugees to be. There was not one who said they had any problems until the bombing began. Then I was interviewed by a Tirana Albanian TV station. and they said. "When are you and the United States going to come out and take care of all these refugees?" I said. "Why us?" They said. "Because if it werent for you. they wouldnt be here." That is the way they are thinking there. I am running out of time. I want to say one thing about the troops.
