The 19 NATO leaders made clear last weekend that NATO will prevail in reversing Milosevic's repression.

Ultimately, the decision is theirs to make. Our responsibility, from our vantage point, is to make clear the risks.

We've made very clear that any hollow, half measures will not stop the bombing.

The message of NATO and the message of these demonstrators is very clear: Milosevic is a loser

just as we did in the McCarthy era, we have offset the decline of traditional forms of repression with the development of new forms of repression. A historical comparison reveals not so much a repudiation as an evolution.

We'd like to get this behind us, and we're confident we're going to prevail.
