Less than a week after the tragic events of "9/11", President Bush revealed his plan for America's new "War on Terrorism" - which has come to be known as "The Bush Doctrine".
The "Bush Doctrine" includes the willingness to form a "coalition of the willing" if the United Nations does not address perceived threats to international peace and security in a timely manner, as well as the doctrine of "preemptive war" .
Critics of the doctrine are suspicious of the increasing willingness of the U.S. to use military force unilaterally, without first being provoked or attacked - a significant departure from past U.S. foreign policy.
