N2  - Explains the struggle of the Bush and Clinton administrations to fashion a coherent Bosnia policy, in terms of the nature of the war in Yugoslavia; US security and humanitarian interests; distorted US perceptions of the conflict; and factors which discouraged American intervention. Memories of Vietnam, for instance, spurred domestic opposition to the latter option. Suggests a new approach for the future, where uncertainty in foreign policy and unclear goals and strategies will be the norm
