...early signs are already making the push-button war look like the easy part. Across the province, KLA troops ? in full camouflage and still fully armed despite agreements to the contrary ? are parading in full view of NATO troops and making everybody nervous. In the German-held sector, returning Kosovar Albanians are torching Serb homes. And Serb civilians, for obvious reasons, are ignoring the alliance?s promises to protect them and running for Slobo?s Serbia ? only to be turned back by Serb troops.

"They?ll probably reach a compromise agreement by creating some form of parallel command in name that appears to satisfy both concerns," says TIME Moscow correspondent Andrew Meier. Indeed, NATO is concerned that the outflow of Kosovar Serbs will create unstoppable momentum toward independence for Kosovo, which would sharply divide Europe.

...toll on public opinion about both the performance of the Clinton-Gore Administration and the direction of the country in general. And it remains far from certain that Gore and Chernomyrdin can meet the standard of success they agreed upon that night last month: the safe return of Kosovar refugees. Still, it is hard to imagine a worse disaster for Gore than the prospect of a campaign season with U.S. ground troops in a war with the Serbs...

...contrast, the West's favorite Kosovar politician has substantially dimmed. Ibrahim Rugova, the pacifist leader, was posing for pictures with Milosevic while Thaci and his forces were struggling in the hills.
