    Preemptive Strike Or Preventive War?

    Research | Articles | by Williamson Murray
    Tuesday, August 29, 2017

    With the troubles bubbling over on the Korean Peninsula, as the North Korean regime approaches possession of nuclear weapons and missiles capable of striking the United States, two words, preemptive and preventive, have gained increasing currency. While similar in meaning, their context is crucial in understanding their applicability to the current crisis. And here, as is so often the case, history is a useful tool in thinking through the possibilities.

    Research | Articles | by Peter R. Mansoor
    Tuesday, March 31, 2020

    Leaving The Middle East: The Fallacy Of A False Dichotomy

    Research | Articles | by Admiral James O. Ellis Jr.
    Tuesday, March 31, 2020

    In classical logic, the false dichotomy, or false dilemma, is defined as an argument where only two choices are presented yet more exist, or a spectrum of possible choices exists between two extremes. False dilemmas are usually characterized by “either this or that” language but can also be characterized by the omission of choices. This insidious tactic has the appearance of forming a logical argument, but under closer scrutiny it becomes evident that there are more possibilities than the either/or choice that is presented.

    Urging More From Our NATO Allies

    Research | Articles | by Robert G. Kaufman
    Thursday, January 17, 2019

    The United States should never expect to achieve full burden-sharing with the European members of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO). Even in the most balanced alliances, the most powerful member will pay some premium for ensuring its credibility and effectiveness. The United States can strive plausibly to minimize but not eliminate the massive degree of free riding and strategic incoherence that has become politically untenable and strategically unwise.
