SARAJEVO, Bosnia -- The most critical -- and probably least feasible -- part of the new Bosnian peace agreement is the right it gives refugees to return home.Few diplomats, human rights experts or refugee officials believe that the provision will work. Its failure would leave a festering sore that many predict will erupt into war again in a matter of months or years.A handful of "confidence-building" refugee-return projects have failed miserably in the past several weeks, with dozens of families blocked from going home.

BEIRUT, Lebanon -- The Ethiopian Consulate was filled this week with young women, almost all of them maids and nannies trying to get back home. And at the Iraqi Embassy, yet another bus pulled up with poor laborers seeking passage back to Baghdad, hoping to return home even though it means returning to another war zone. Throughout the Lebanese capital, embassies and consulates are attempting to extricate fellow citizens from the fighting that began July 12. For Western nations such as the United States, the effort has involved the costly use of ships or helicopters.
