Zusammenfassung:RAND Project AIR FORCE studied the post-9/11 shift in U.S. defense policy emphasis toward preemptive and preventive attack, asking under what conditions preemptive or preventive attack is worth considering as a response to perceived threats.

Finally, it identified implications these conclusions have for military planners and policymakers as they prepare to deal with national security threats in the next decade.
