...these feints, advances and retreats on the ground are supposed to lead to a diplomatic settlement. The only peace plan under discussion -- the U.N.-backed Owen-Stoltenberg proposal -- is one that will let the Serbs keep what they have captured and cut Bosnia into three ethnic pieces. The Muslim- led government rejects the plan because it rewards the Serb aggressor. The European allies believe the U.S. has agreed to push the Bosnians into accepting the Owen-Stoltenberg map. Says a Serb captain: "It depends on the will of the international community to be as hard on the Muslims...
...take this breast beating too far. Some writers in the appease-the- sisters branch of men's-movement literature hold that masculinity is a destructive atavism and an encumbrance that a small planet could do without. John Stoltenberg, a radical feminist who wrote a book called The End of Manhood, divides men into misogynists and recovering misogynists. "Manhood," he writes, "is the paradigm of injustice . . .

Izetbegovic considers 30% insufficient. "There is no final map yet," said Owen...
...trying to prove it is a great power. In the past, Hitler's Germany did the same thing." The attack was intemperate and unfair -- it was Turkey that had been behaving brutally, not Germany -- and anger with the Ankara government ran so high in Germany that Defense Minister Gerhard Stoltenberg resigned for having failed to stop the arms shipments earlier. Kohl rightly rejected Ozal's "tone and content...
