...the first duty of the United States remains what it always has
been: to protect the American people and American interests.
The greater the threat, the greater is the risk of inaction.
To forestall or prevent such hostile acts by our adversaries, the
United States will, if necessary, act preemptively in exercising our
inherent right of self defense.

REASONS FOR BUSH DOCTRINE

26. To protect U.S. from terrorists
more influence and benefits

27. to protect America
THE VANTAGE POINT
Given the magnitude of threat, the only acceptable strategy is one
that eliminates the possibility that Iraq will be able to use weapons
of mass destruction… removing Saddam Hussein and his regime
for power. That needs to become the aim of U.S. foreign policy.“Jan 26th, 1998 letter to President Clinton,

28. to protect America
9/11 TERROR
- “The U.S. will not distinguish
terrorists and nations that
harbor terrorists.”
- Al Qaeda attacked WTC
and Pentagon on 9/11, 2001.

29. to protect AmericaFLAW OF LOGIC
- Why not attack other axis of evil?
- According to U.N. investigation, there was no WMD in Iraq.
