Jewish World Review Oct. 23, 2007 / 11 Mar-Cheshvan Bush Doctrine 2.0? By Frank J. Gaffney, Jr. http://www.JewishWorldReview.com | The first term of the George W. Bush presidency and what has come to be known as the "Bush Doctrine" were marked by a profound and forceful reaction to September 11, 2001. Determined to prevent further, murderous attacks on the United States, Mr. Bush and his national security team were determined to "drain the swamps" from whence terrorists received safe havens and other forms of support. Out went the sort of "stability" born of accommodations with totalitarians and favored by the foreign policy establishment"s so-called "realists." In came a U.S. commitment to bringing down the "axis of evil," in favor of a world ordered by liberty and democracy. Today, we are seeing the emergence of what might be described as "Bush Doctrine 2.0." It bears no similarity to the first edition. In fact, it pretty much repudiates everything Mr. Bush stood for during his first four years in office. Worse yet, it threatens to render his legacy not simply one of unrealized goals but of betrayed principles, abandoned friends and unscrupulous deals with tyrants sure to perpetuate their odious regimes. Herewith is a sampling of the unraveling of Mr. Bush's policies: • Appeasing North Korea: Early in the first Bush administration, the president to his credit candidly revealed to Bob Woodward that he loathed Kim Jong-il's brutally repressive police state. After the North Koreans acknowledged lying about their nuclear weapons program, he strove to intensify Mr. Kim's isolation in hopes of neutralizing the threat thus posed and, with luck, to bring him down. Mr. Bush was subsequently induced to believe this goal could be advanced best by enlisting the North's regional neighbors — including its enablers, China, Russia and South Korea — in so-called "six-party talks." Even as it became ever more apparent that Pyongyang's allies were using those negotiations to thwart the original Bush Doctrine, not advance it, the president clung to this approach and eschewed bilateral talks with, to say nothing of appeasement of, the North. Now, however, the U.S. envoy to those talks, Assistant Secretary of State Christopher Hill, has eviscerated the original Bush policy. In the name of obtaining still more vacuous promises of nuclear disarmament from Mr. Kim, Mr. Hill is not only negotiating directly and bilaterally with Pyongyang. He has promised to remove North Korea from the list of state-sponsors of terrorism, despite mounting evidence it is actively engaged in the ultimate support for terrorism: proliferating nuclear weapons technology to the likes of two others on that infamous list: Syria and Iran. • A Palestinian state, no matter what: In June 2002, Mr. Bush declared he would be willing to work toward a Palestinian homeland only if certain conditions were satisfied. These included their rejection of terrorism, elimination of its infrastructure and emergence of a new generation of leaders unsullied by terror ties. Now, Mr. Bush's secretary of state, Condoleezza Rice, is frantically pursuing creation of a Palestinian state she hopes will be run by a man with lifelong ties to terror — Yasser Arafat's crony and right-hand man, Mahmoud Abbas. In the process, she is whitewashing his record and current conduct; euchring Israel into surrendering more territory to its enemies; and ignoring the virtual certainty that any land thus yielded will become yet another safe haven for terror (as with South Lebanon and Gaza before it). • Closing 'Gitmo': For years, President Bush has recognized the need for a U.S.-controlled facility outside the United States capable of securely incarcerating international terrorists. He refused to capitulate to the often-hysterical calls, both at home and abroad, for closing the irreplaceable prison complex used for this purpose and located Guantanamo Bay. Now, according to the New York Times, the administration is poised to shut down Gitmo, transfer its remaining occupants to U.S. territory and extend to them expanded rights to counsel and consideration of their cases in civilian courts. It is unlikely this action will earn "W." any kudos from his critics. It will, however, make it more difficult and vastly more expensive to keep such detainees off the actual or propaganda battlefields of this war. • Farewells to sovereignty: During his first term, Mr. Bush recognized the threat to U.S. sovereignty posed by unaccountable and generally hostile multinational organizations like the International Criminal Court. He went so far as to "unsign" the treaty that established that tribunal rather than allow Americans to be subject to its prosecutions. Now, Mr. Bush is arguing in a case before the Supreme Court that the dictates of such tribunals must trump domestic law. He is also pressing the Senate to allow the United States to be subjected to a host of new tribunals authorized by yet another sovereignty-sapping multinational accord, the U.N. Law of the Sea Treaty (LOST). With the notable exception of Iraq — where Mr. Bush has largely held firm despite relentless criticism, with ever-more-promising results — virtually every aspect, principle and objective of his security policy is being eviscerated on his watch. The problem is not merely that those adulterating the original Bush Doctrine by supplanting it with a 2.0 version will obliterate the common-sense and courageous approach made necessary in the wake of the September 11, 2001, attacks. Mr. Bush will bequeath to his successor and his people a world made vastly more dangerous, not more stable, for his administration's embrace of appeasement dressed up as "realism."

Archives BUY FRANK'S LATEST "War Footing: 10 Steps America Must Take to Prevail in the War for the Free World"   America has been at war for years, but until now, it has not been clear with whom or precisely for what. And we have not been using the full resources we need to win. With the publication of War Footing, lead-authored by Frank Gaffney, it not only becomes clear who the enemy is and how high the stakes are, but also exactly how we can prevail. War Footing shows that we are engaged in nothing less than a War for the Free World. This is a fight to the death with Islamofascists, Muslim extremists driven by a totalitarian political ideology that, like Nazism or Communism before it, is determined to destroy freedom and the people who love it.
