Bosnia
Continued from Page 1
solidified next month in Paris.
“The Dayton accords have been one of the
most joyful experiences in the last four
years,” she said.
Dr. Betty Unterberger, an A&M history
professor, spoke during the presentation
and moderated a question-and-answer ses
sion afterward.
Unterberger offered sobering remarks on
the importance of the peace talks and Ameri
can understanding of the Bosnian situation.
“In Dayton, Ohio, representatives of the
major constituents signed a peace agree
ment,” she said. “It brought to an end, at
least for the present, the bloody, brutal war
that has gone on for four years and resulted
in 250,000 dead.”
Americans’ personal involvement in the
conflict, Unterberger said, has been limited
to media exposure.
“Americans were horrified by the slaugh
ter that we saw graphically portrayed on our
TV screens,” she said, “but they knew almost
nothing about the people.”
The essential element necessary for peace
in the European conflict will not necessarily
be the international involvement, Unter
berger said, but the will of the peoples in
volved to end the years of bloodshed.
“Are the peoples of Bosnia ready to com
mit to peace?” she said. “Has there now been
sufficient slaughter — sufficient dispersion
of refugees throughout Europe — for the
people of Bosnia, regardless of ethnicity, to
commit to peace?”
Students attending the lecture offered
support for the Bosnian and Croatian4:
sentatives, but held differing viewsoj
fighting in general.
Jason Glen, Wiley Lecture Series#
tions assistant and a sophomore polio'' er
science major, said the United States !
fending the helpless in the conflict,
ing sides.
History shows that the concern fort
gion should be international, Glen si
not necessarily military.
“World War I and World War 1
started there,” he said, “so from a
cal standpoint, I’d be hesitant tos
troops in there.”
Rick Fournier, a sophomore mech
engineering major and member of the|
Force ROTC, said the United States:
having like a responsible world power.
“I believe the United States hasai
help the world,” Fournier said.
Democrats
Continued from Page 1
the Brazos Valley president, said
the event should be a success.
Parrish said the large number
of Democratic women in the
county was a major motivator
behind the event.
“Part of the reason we (Texas
Democratic Women) wanted to
have the kickoff is because there
are a lot of democratic women
around here,” she said. “One of
the biggest motivations is people
like Newt, Rush and the boys,
who can get these women all ex
cited about getting together.
“We’re going to just be getting
ready for next fall’s elections,
and we are anxious for everyone
to get together.”
As part of the kickoff cele
bration, Cecile Richards,
daughter of former governor
Ann Richards and founder of
the Texas Freedom Alliance,
will speak at the event.
In addition to speakers, the
event will provide music by Big
Apple Trio, a group headed by a
Texas A&M music professor,
food and tables from various de
mocratic groups.
The Texas Freedom Alliance
is an alliance of mainstream or
ganizations from around the
state that offer an alternative to
the radical right.
Richards said she will address
the issue of education in Texas.
“Generally, what I talk
about is public education,” she
said. “We’ll be talking, though,
about school board races and
races for the State Board of
Education.
“We’ll also be talking a little
bit about what we’ve been doing
around the state.”
Clinton
Continued from Page 1
The mission comes on the
heels of an agreement signed in
Dayton, Ohio, last week to stop
the bloodiest fighting in Europe
since World War II, claiming
250,000 lives.
“We must not turn our backs
on Bosnia now,” Clinton said.
“And so I ask all Americans —
and I ask every member of Con
gress, Democrat and Republican
alike, to make the choice for
peace. In the choice between
peace and war, American must
choose peace.”
Clinton said the Bosnia mission
“can succeed because the mission
is clear and limited. Our troops are
strong and very well prepared.”
And yet, Clinton acknowledged,
“no deployment of American
troops is risk free and thi
may well involve casualties."
Clinton had promised tos
Congress’ support for then
sion, but made clear he wj
invoke his powers as commail
in chief to deploy the forces#:
if lawmakers resisted.
It appeared Congress
defer to the president ■
him shoulder the responsibil
as well.
“The president has
thority and the power underj
Constitution to do what he [«
should be done, regardless]
what Congress does,” said I
House Speaker Newt!
grich said, “I think people]
skeptical but 1 think they!
willing to listen.”
House Democratic Lei
Richard Gephardt said Clintonl)
made a strong case for U.S. i
ment, and added, “If America i
n’t lead the world, who will?’’
