That's a lofty proclamation from a country that has promised increased moral ethnic policies. Now NATO is bombing Serbia back to the stone age. There is awesome power in this country. It can be channeled to accomplish a lot. He urged for more stringent weapons control.
Weapons kill people.
Guns supplied by the U.S., France, Germany and the U.K. kill people in developing countries. President Clinton is quoted as saying he was outraged at the importation of assault rifles from China. I wish that such a passionate president would stop exporting weapons to developing countries. I cannot but wonder how some in Washington can sleep with peace when 3 million people lost their lives in Vietnam because American companies backed military policies in Southeast Asia. There is a lesson we can learn from the people in East Timor.
