This book was released on 2021-05-04 with total page 8 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Essay from the year 2019 in the subject Politics - International Politics - Region: Near East, Near Orient, grade: 68, University of Winchester, language: English, abstract: This paper is going to tackle whether Bush’s 2002 articulation of an "Axis of Evil" in fighting the 'war on terror' was a mistake or not. To answer this question, this essay will look at Iraq as an example because Iraq was invaded by the US in 2003. On the one hand, Bush’s articulation that the "Axis of Evil" could be seen as helpful in fighting the war on terror as the US argued, that Iraq had acquired chemical weapons and Weapons of Mass Destruction (WMD). On the other hand, invading Iraq could have been a huge mistake because the problem of Al-Qaeda became stronger and there were many terror attacks in Europa after the Iraq invasion. Thus, the "Axis of Evil" could be helpful, but there were some problematic things. This essay will first explore, what the "Axis of Evil" was. Then the essay will turn to illustrate the question if a state can be a terrorist. It will argue what evidence there is that a state is involved in terrorism. Finally, this essay will discuss the outcome of the 'war on terror', and conclude if the invasion of the Iraq by the US was a mistake or not. The terrorist attacks in New York and Washington on the 11th September 2001 represent a symbolic declaration of war by Islamic fundamentalists to Western civilization. However, in January 2002, George W. Bush in his speech to the Washington Post demonstrated the existence of an international "Axis of Evil" by addressing North Korea, Iran and Iraq. Further, under Secretary of State John Bolton said that Cuba, Libya and Syria could be grouped with these as rogue states. Bush added that states like these and their terrorist allies constitute an axis of evil.

Book Synopsis The Bush Leadership, the Power of Ideas, and the War on Terror by : Dirk Nabers
Download or read book The Bush Leadership, the Power of Ideas, and the War on Terror written by Dirk Nabers and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-04-01 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Foreign policy success or failure is often attributed to the role of leadership. This volume explores the relationship between President George W. Bush's leadership, the administration's stated belief in the power of ideas (and the ideas of power) and its approach to the war on terror. Drawing on the international expertise of ten American foreign policy and security specialists, this incisive and timely book combines theoretical perspectives on political leadership with rigorous empirical analysis of selected aspects of the Bush administration's post 9/11 foreign policy. As a result, this book sheds considerable light not just on the limited impact of President Bush's war on terror strategy, but also, more importantly, on why key ideas underpinning the strategy, such as US global primacy and pre-emptive war, largely failed to gel in a globalizing world.
Book Synopsis Mission Not Accomplished by : William W. Turner
Download or read book Mission Not Accomplished written by William W. Turner and published by . This book was released on 2004 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After 9/11, President Bush reassured Americans and the world that he would lead the fight against terror aggressively and unremittingly until Osama bin Laden and al-Qaida were crushed. Since then his actions have fallen short, and he has apparently lost sight of the mission. In his new book, former FBI counterintelligence specialist and CNN analyst William Turner portrays the White House as an administration of broken promises, insufficient planning, failed diplomacy, misplaced priorities and suspect motives, and hammers Bush for selling the invasion of Iraq as part of the War on Terror, when in fact Iraq had no WMD and posed no threat.
Book Synopsis The Real Axis of Evil by : Stephen Kaposi
Download or read book The Real Axis of Evil written by Stephen Kaposi and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2004-09 with total page 303 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In The Real Axis of Evil, author Stephen Kaposi has utilised extensive research to provide a tough and uncompromising indictment of the US invasion of Iraq, Western imperialism, globalisation, the Israeli treatment of the Palestinians and the Police State being created in the name of "security". He reveals clearly how the mainstream media has provided a pro-establishment coverage to convince people of the need for war and increased security measures that are intended to control their populations. He demolishes the facades of George W. Bush and Tony Blair to reveal dangerous war makers intent on controlling the world and destroying opposition to their new Empires. He shows why Iraq has descended into chaos by revealing the extraordinary level of opposition to America, not just in Iraq, but around the world. The Real Axis of Evil is the necessary perspective to the sanitised, pro-American image the mainstream media has built to deceive people of the real world situation. The Real Axis of Evil provides the truths that the government and their media allies don't want you to know, and do their best to cover up.

Book Synopsis George W Bush Administration Propaganda for an Invasion of Iraq by : Larry Hartenian
Download or read book George W Bush Administration Propaganda for an Invasion of Iraq written by Larry Hartenian and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-04-28 with total page 373 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hartenian’s history of George W Bush propaganda for an invasion of Iraq returns the administration’s approach to its conceptual origins. Hartenian places "evidence" in the center of his analysis, showing that Rumsfeld’s "the absence of evidence is not evidence of absence" meant that no evidence was necessary to justify an invasion. The 9/11 attacks, indeed, "changed everything" for the Bush administration and in its aftermath the time for regime change in Iraq had simply come. With no good evidence to support its fears, the administration was certain of a post-9/11-conceived Iraq–al Qaeda "nexus," just as with no evidence except the "absence of evidence" it was certain of Iraqi mastery of "denial and deception" that hid "Saddam’s" "evil" activities. Resting on Cheney’s "one percent doctrine," administration "certainty" of the threat from Iraq required a US invasion. The policy offices of Douglas Feith at the Pentagon, with the help of George Tenet at CIA, would generate a case of such fright and enormity—the "mushroom cloud"—that required administration action. Manipulating intelligence and ignoring the growing body of evidence undermining its case, the Bush administration invaded Iraq to bring about "regime change."

Download or read book Out of Evil written by Stephen Chan and published by I.B.Tauris. This book was released on 2005 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Axis of Evil institutionalized a new rhetoric of morality in international affairs which, at least in appearance, mirrors the ideological aspirations of George W. Bush and his neo-Conservative policy advisors. In its fight against evil, the US has economically and politically broken the Soviet Union, waged war against Afghanistan, toppled the Taliban regime, confronted Al-Qaeda ad threatened Syria, Iran and Northern Korea. But what is this notion of evil which has become part of the language of international politics? What are its historical origins and its moral, political and legal foundations? Is the fight against evil merely a new form of imperialism? against its potency as a tool for policy makers. He concludes that the greatest danger in combating the acts and individuals, broadly defined as evil, lies in a failure to grasp their true and varied nature in favour of attempts to blow evil away with unprecedented might.
Book Synopsis Understanding the Bush Doctrine by : Stanley A. Renshon
Download or read book Understanding the Bush Doctrine written by Stanley A. Renshon and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-05-13 with total page 357 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this volume, leading scholars of U.S. foreign policy, international relations, and political psychology examine one of the most consequential and controversial statements of national security policy in contemporary American history. Unlike other books which focus only on unilateralism or preventive war, Stanley A. Renshon and Peter Suedfeld provide a comprehensive framework with which to analyze the Bush Doctrine by identifying five central and interrelated elements of the doctrine: American pre-eminence assertive realism equivocal alliances selective multilateralism democratic transformation. Given its centrality to American national security, and the fact that the effects of it are likely to be felt well into the twenty-first century, Understanding the Bush Doctrine provides a critically balanced and pointed assessment of the Bush Doctrine and its premises, as well as a fair appraisal of its implications and prospects.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "A splendidly illuminating book." —The New York Times Like it or not, George W. Bush has launched a revolution in American foreign policy. He has redefined how America engages the world, shedding the constraints that friends, allies, and international institutions once imposed on its freedom of action. In America Unbound, Ivo Daalder and James Lindsay caution that the Bush revolution comes with serious risks–and, at some point, we may find that America’s friends and allies will refuse to follow his lead, leaving the U.S. unable to achieve its goals. This edition has been extensively revised and updated to include major policy changes and developments since the book’s original publication.

Book Synopsis Terrorism and the Bush Doctrine by : John Maszka
Download or read book Terrorism and the Bush Doctrine written by John Maszka and published by Terrorism and the Bush Doctr. This book was released on 2008 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Terrorism is perhaps the greatest challenge facing mankind in the twenty-first century. It has been researched, debated, analyzed and contemplated by some of the greatest minds on the planet. And yet no known solution exists. When putting out a fire, while it is important to know what type of fire it is before attempting to put it out, firefighters understand that the key to putting out any fire is to remove its source of oxygen. Likewise, terrorism depends on popular support to sustain itself. Without popular support, the majority of funding, recruits and overall acceptance will disappear. Therefore, the primary goal for eliminating terrorism is to eliminate the sources of popular support. This book argues that this has to be the standard approach and strategy. These pages examine three primary components of contemporary American foreign policy: unilateralism, preemption and military hegemony, as well as how they impact terrorism.
Book Synopsis The Bush Doctrine and the War on Terrorism by : Mary Buckley
Download or read book The Bush Doctrine and the War on Terrorism written by Mary Buckley and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2006-09-27 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The presidency of George W. Bush has been widely regarded as having occasioned one of the most dramatic shifts in the history of American foreign policy. The US interventions in Afghanistan and Iraq, the declaration of a ‘war on terrorism’ and the enunciation of a ‘Bush Doctrine’ of unrivalled military power, ‘regime change’ for ‘rogue states’, and preventive and pre-emptive war together generated unprecedented divisions in the international community. In this edited volume, leading international experts analyze the nature and scale of the global transformation wrought by the Bush foreign policy in three clear parts: part one examines the extent of the Bush administration’s break with prior American foreign policy. in Part two, region and country-specific experts assess the responses to the Bush Doctrine and the interaction of domestic and international politics that shaped these. They explore how governments, political parties, the media and public opinion react to US foreign policy and assess the implications for domestic, regional and international politics. part three examines the likely long-term implications of the Bush Doctrine in relation to a set of major thematic issues including: war and peace; the global economy; human rights and the UN. Providing a balanced and dispassionate assessment of continuity and change in American foreign policy, national/regional responses to it, and the impact of US foreign policy on a set of ‘big picture’ discrete issues, this book is essential reading for scholars and researchers of international relations and contemporary history.

Book Synopsis The Choice of War by : Albert L. Weeks
Download or read book The Choice of War written by Albert L. Weeks and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2009-11-25 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A longtime scholar of the Cold War deftly weaves together the tradition of "just war" and an examination of current events to show how the time-honored concepts of jus ad bellum (justice of war) and jus in bello (justice in war) apply to the U.S. military involvement in Iraq. This timely analysis of President George W. Bush's foreign policy deals with the cornerstone of his administrations—the "war on terror"—as implemented in Afghanistan, Iraq, Guantanamo Bay, and at Abu Ghraib prison. The Choice of War: The Iraq War and the "Just War" Tradition discusses NSS 2002, the national security statement that became the blueprint for the Bush Doctrine. It explains the differences and similarities between preventive and pre-emptive war and explores the administration's justification of the necessity of the March 2003 invasion. Finally, it analyzes the conduct of the war, the occupation, and the post-occupation phases of the conflict. In evaluating the Bush Doctrine, both as declared strategy and as implemented, Albert L. Weeks asks whether going it virtually alone in the global struggle against 21st-century terrorism should be incorporated permanently into American political and military policy. Answering no, he suggests an alternative to a doctrine that has isolated the United States and left the world divided.
