chancellor bush is doing away with the foriegn policy basics that we've had in place since the 1940's and decided that we will preemptively attack anyone we want any time we want.
to quote the NYT:
It includes the
discounting of most nonproliferation treaties in favor of a doctrine
of "counterproliferation," a reference to everything from missile
defense to forcibly dismantling weapons or their components. It
declares that the strategies of containment and deterrence staples of
American policy since the 1940's are all but dead. There is no way in
this changed world, the document states, to deter those who "hate the
United States and everything for which it stands."
