Sorry FA, but this is a bad idea.

As CC pointed out there is no need anymore for on the ground observers. If there is one thing the Yugo Wars taught us, it is that belligerents don't give a flying #### if there are observers or peacekeepers.

If they want to kill people they will kill people.

Futhermore, IIRC, the UN won't put in peacekeepers unless both sides agree to them. I don't see that happening.

The only way it might work is if it was a Chapter 7 mission, and I can't see any country willing to throw troops into that kind of meat grinder.
