...horror. The impact of those pit graves and decomposing bodies, incinerated villages and pulverized cities will haunt the Balkans for generations. In Washington the White House is busy searching for a leader to replace Milosevic if the defeated strongman falls. Clinton is expected this week to meet Milo Djukanovic, Montenegro's useful pro-Western President, and U.S. diplomats met secretly last week with Belgrade political opponents in hopes of promoting a homegrown challenge to Milosevic. Washington refuses to cooperate with Yugoslavia as long as he stays in power, but Clinton repeatedly emphasizes, "The U.S. and our European allies have...

...murderous actions of the Serb nationalists in Kosovo pose a threat to all Europe [KOSOVO CRISIS, April 12]. If we do not act, Montenegro, Macedonia and Albania will be the next targets, leaving Europe with the same radical nationalism but on a larger scale. It is imperative that we neutralize Yugoslav President Slobodan Milosevic and his nationalist henchmen as quickly as possible. Again and again, we have witnessed the pattern of Milosevic's talking peace while readying forces for another assault against innocents. Attempts to negotiate only help the cause of Serb nationalism.
