...this album has a failing, it's that Streisand's song selection is a bit too classic and safe. She includes two songs from Guys and Dolls despite the fact that she did one from that show on her first Broadway album. She closes with a tune from Sunday in the Park with George despite the fact that her first album started off with a song from that show.

But that plan was flawed from the outset: many fear the safe areas will turn into permanent refugee camps guarded indefinitely by U.N. soldiers. And it is proving nearly impossible to implement. U.N. troops are routinely refused access to Muslim areas by Serb commanders, cannot shoot unless fired upon or intervene even when they witness / atrocities. Britain and France, who supply most...
