discussion unilateral and preemptive action

  1. Our strategies permit us unilateral, preemptive action. Does this justify action against Iran or North Korea with their nuclear programs? Does the national security strategy make us appear to the international community as aggressive, loners, passive, or cooperative?
  2. How will we know if our homeland security strategies are a success? What should we establish as gauges of success? Where does domestic terror threats play a role?
