So we need a more active form of peacemaking and a more effective means of intervening.

That's why we're so actively working with NATO in Bosnia to have a much more aggressive form of peacemaking, in terms of the NATO mission that's there right now. Third, we've learned a lot about how you can't ultimately resolve these conflicts without some form of justice. Somebody underneath it all started it.
