A looming shadow of inevitability hangs over the U.S. naval and air forces circling Haiti, waiting for a convenient opportunity to pounce. U.S. President Bill Clinton and his point man on Haiti, former Representative William Gray, lurch from one failed strategy to the next, all of them drenched in bad faith and destined to deepen the crisis rather than resolve it. If the U.S. military attack does come soon it will signify failure rather than victory, hypocrisy rather than hope. Clinton's policy is driven wholly by Americans fear of black immigration, not reverence for democratic restoration.
