When is a U.S. interest at stake? When is preemptive military action justified or required? What level of cooperation should we seek from other governments before taking military action? What is the U.S. interest and responsibility in a post-attack region? Finding our way through this maze of questions is difficult at best. How we answer them will impact the entire world for generations to come.
Join us for a discussion of the principles of foreign policy that provide a starting point for answering these difficult questions.
