Zusammenfassung:Does the United States have the right to defend itself by striking first, or must it wait until an attack is in progress? Is the Bush Doctrine of aggressive preventive action a justified and legal recourse against threats posed by terrorists and rogue states?

In Striking First, Doyle shows how the Bush Doctrine has consistently disregarded a vita.
