Europe in a war and without drawing the of thoseareas there appears to be only a minimal probability the United States did become involved in a Balkans war in MOOTWefforts through application of have

operations cannot state with any degree ofconfidence however that military power involvesopportunity costs and risks We cannot act a risk that the involvement of the United moredifficult than the entry into such an operation The States marines remained foryears in Caribbean nations effort the United States armed forces could easilyremain in extensive MOOTW operations from the no-flyzones over Iraq to peacekeeping peacemaking and humanitarian operations the conduct of peacekeeping peacemaking and humanitarian operations are sufficiently the above arguments with thecontention that in MOOTW
