accurately bad deal great
(Friday) night, a great deal of what was done was done accurately and professionally. Of course, everything is overshadowed, as we expect, by this one very, very bad mistake.
agree believe forces ground introduced people troops until
I don't believe there are any differences in what people are saying. We all agree that ground troops should not be introduced until Yugoslav forces are retreating. We also all agree that ground troops will not be used for fighting.
number
If the Serbs want to talk, they know what number to call.
air campaign combat course everybody forces ground nobody putting run talking time troops until
Nobody is talking about putting in ground troops into a combat situation. Everybody agrees that the air campaign has to run its course until such time as those Serb forces are degraded, diminished, demoralized and on their way out.
She is the person to know these things better than anybody.

Milosevic is in the corner, and that's where he's going to be kept by NATO until he throws in the towel.

Let's see how we come out on this one. As far as NATO is concerned, we are talking about a single force with unity of command, robust rules of engagement and a common approach throughout Kosovo.
future
I have always said that Milosevic's future is up to the Serbian people.
far
We find the KLA is far from vanquished.
against arrive beating borders bush course forces kosovo military mixed moved ongoing operation pattern roads security seeing sent trains vehicles
What we are seeing is a safari operation ongoing by Serb security forces against Kosovo Albanians. First, there is a pattern of shelling into the hills, beating them out of the bush if you like. Then they are on the roads ... being moved hither and thither, particularly being mixed up with military vehicles of course on those roads. Then they are put into trains and sent to borders but sometimes when they arrive they are sent back again.
refugees using weapon
We've prevented Milosevic from using refugees as a weapon to destabilize neighboring countries.
deeply regret week
There are about 30 killings a week in Kosovo, all of which I deeply regret.
