...urged Dole to smile more, and like a high school drama coach, he planted himself in the front row and smiled widely through the entire forum. Two weeks ago, Dole was diluting the emotional high point of his speech--his painful convalescence--by rambling on about other things, like Bosnia. Utah's Bennett, who was traveling with Dole, waited a few hours after one run-on speech and then pulled Dole aside in a relaxed moment. "When you've told the story of Russell," said Bennett, "the speech is over. That's it." At the next event, Dole brought...
...Hague court was never biased. They have been doing the best they can with what little resources and information they have." Zejnil Delalic, a former Bosnian government army officer, was indicted for allowing guards under his authority to murder, rape and torture prisoners at Celebeci camp in central Bosnia in 1992. Zdravko Mucic, a Croat and the commander of the Celebici camp, was indicted along with Hazim Delic, deputy commander at the camp, for murders allegedly committed by their subordinates. Also charged was Esad Landzo, a guard at Celebici camp, for murder. Michaels reports that the work of the tribunal...
...Serbs and five Croats -- now patrol the district. "Recently, between 50,000 and 60,000 Serbs have fled and only 11,000 remain," says Calabresi. He also reports that there are serious difficulties in the Muslim-Croat Federation. "There are underlying political problems, including disagreement over ways in which Bosnia can be reunified," says Calabresi.

Sarajevo over the past four weeks has been a clear example of that...
...record discussion of a Dole-Clinton matchup. Many won't even do it on background. "Nope," says adviser George Stephanopoulos. "No, no, no, no, no. Uh-uh." Clinton's strategists think it will be a tough, ugly, close election. They have a healthy fear of disaster in Bosnia, eruptions of bimbos, new Whitewater embarrassments, a host of other unpredictables. And they realize that while many of Clinton's strengths play to Dole's weaknesses--their man's love of campaigning is surpassed only by Dole's discomfort with it--the reverse is also true. That Dole appears reluctant to traffic...
...cannot live together with their enemies. However, Christopher is still committed to the provisions of the Dayton peace accord. "One of the reasons the United States took the risks and responsibility of leadership was to give the parties a chance to achieve their stated goal of a multi-ethnic Bosnia," Christopher said. Christopher is expected to meet Serb, Croat and Bosnian leaders, as well as officials from Britain, France and Germany. The talks are expected to focus on fall elections in Bosnia; the return of refugees; the extradition of war crimes suspects; and the expulsion of foreign Islamic fighters...
