The Bush Juggernaut

Jeremy Brecher's Foreign Policy in Focus discussion paper analyzes ways of "Terminating the Bush Juggernaut". Intro:

The Bush administration is presenting itself to the world as a juggernaut--a "massive inexorable force that advances irresistibly, crushing whatever is in its path." Bush's National Security Strategy envisions its "war against terrorism" as "a global enterprise of uncertain duration." It says the U.S. will act against "emerging threats before they are fully formed." The Bush administration envisions the coming decades as a continuation of recent U.S. demands, threats, and wars. It intends to continue the aggressive behavior already illustrated by war on Afghanistan and Iraq, armed intervention in the Philippines and Columbia, and threats against Syria, Iran, and North Korea. The Bush administration and its successors are likely to continue this juggernaut until they are made to stop.
