#1 I've got an idea: We arm both sides, pull our troops out, and tell the Euros to fix their own problems.

When the slaughter spills across the borders, they'll find a way. And until they do, the innocent won't be unarmed sheep ready for slaughter. (The guilty never were.)

#2 Serb Christians vs Muslim ethnic Albanians. The only solution is partition, it has been since the begining. But politicians never get that. Build a concret wall between them and leave. It is beyond the ability of the EU or UN to deal with. This is the only solution.

#3 Afghanistan-US invades and elections held in 2 yrs.
Iraq-US invades and elections held w/in 2 yrs.
Kosovo-Franco/German approved NATO action,UN involvement and now as EU mission results in "neocolonial administration" w/no end in sight after 6+ yrs.
When it comes to building democracies,the US has more practical experience than any other country,as well as having a democratic government far longer than any Continental country.

#4 Let's not forget the Milosevic trial - the "trial of the century" - cause that's how long it'll take to conclude it. And the EU wanted to handle the Saddam trial - yeah, right!
