...world's only superpower. When they shoot at an E.U. soldier, they're shooting at the E.U." Others believe Europe is still too mired in political rivalries to respond effectively to emerging crises. "There is real fear that Europe will keep getting key decisions wrong," as Morton Abramowitz, a former U.S. assistant secretary of state, writes in the current Foreign Affairs. Greece's many differences with Turkey, for example, have already delayed the deployment of the E.U. force in Macedonia because the old enemies can't agree on the use of NATO facilities. Europe's natural strengths in the Balkans...
...Murray Abramowitz (Alan Arkin), trapped in dreams of lost prosperity, urges his kids to think of themselves as nomads, adventurers wresting their livelihood from a harsh yet enticing landscape. His daughter Vivian (Natasha Lyonne)--15 and squirmy with all the anxieties, social and sexual, of her age group--knows better.

But a high-ranking FBI official derided as "ludicrous" any notion that Scott's departure will end the government's probe of Columbia. Says he: "This is an investigation that is very much ongoing...
...elections being held under such conditions? Mostly because Bill Clinton wants them. Postponement "would have been an acknowledgment that the [U.S.] troops would have to stay in Bosnia a long time," says Morton Abramowitz, head of the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace. Clinton guaranteed Congress that U.S. troops, operating under the NATO-led Implementation Force (IFOR), would remain in Bosnia for one year. Americans are not particularly attentive to the complexities of foreign affairs, but voters would certainly notice if the timing of withdrawal unraveled. And it would hand Bob Dole and the Republicans a "quagmire" stick to whack Clinton...
