The better solution is patience. We should suspend the bombing, isolate Serbia economically and use our ample resources and organizational skills to make the life of the refugees as secure, even pleasant, as possible. And we should give strong financial support to Albania and Macedonia to help with the huge burden imposed on them. Let us open the United States yet further to refugees. That has been our greatest past service to the deprived and despairing of the world, and all to our own ultimate benefit.
Time is the greatest of all curatives.
If with our NATO allies we stop the bombing and are open to negotiation, eventually reason will rule. There will be negotiations, some kind of settlement. War, on the contrary, does not heal, and its effect on participants and those unhappily present is all too evident.
