斯雷布雷尼察大屠杀被视为美国对波斯尼亚政策的转折点。然而，对重大战争罪行的反应并不是最重要的因素。克林顿政府致力于通过积极的领导政策来恢复美国的领导形象。美国政府通过与波斯尼亚盟友承担风险、分担责任，摆脱了政策僵局，实现了有效领导，满足了盟友的期望。美国的政策是关于形象和权力的重要事务，而不是斯雷布雷尼察和波斯尼亚的命运以及解决那里的战争罪行的需要。斯雷布雷尼察战争罪行的真正后果是，华盛顿对此的反应恢复了国际领导地位。
The Srebrenica massacre has been seen as the turning point in American policy over Bosnia. However, the response to a major war crime was not the single most important element. The Clinton Administration was set on restoring the American leadership image through a pro‐active leadership policy. The Administration extricated itself from policy deadlock by taking risks and sharing responsibilities with its allies in Bosnia, which made effective leadership possible, accommodating the allies’ expectations. American policy was about this important business of image and power, not the fate of Srebrenica and Bosnia and the need to address the war crimes there. The real legacy of the war crimes at Srebrenica was that the response to it restored international leadership from Washington.
