Krauthammer argues Clinton shrank Gulf force deployment to fit a new passive multilateralism. He notes $1.3 billion spent on bluster, U.N. peacekeeping praise by Annan, and the danger of letting the UN and Security Council dictate US action. He cites McCain and the Hanoi Hilton experience as support for unilateral action.
