	Is There a Doctrine in the House? By Michael Kinsley (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-14)
		According to the president's critics, the Clinton Doctrine is that American blood and treasure should flow whenever someone in a faraway land stubs his toe.
		The Clinton Doctrine's answer is that the United States will sometimes try to stop humanitarian catastrophes and to protect liberty and democracy around the world.
		Colin Powell's doctrine can be summarized as "All or Nothing at All." (Click here for a few bars from Frank Sinatra, courtesy of Amazon.com.) Any military activity should have clear and clearly achievable goals, should enjoy strong popular support, and should involve overwhelming force to assure certain and prompt victory.

		Clinton is the first President in more than forty years without the ideological security blanket of the Cold War.
		Clinton has not accurately assessed the most significant trends in world affairs; he has not sensibly set the nation's priorities; he has not grasped the challenges posed by political, economic, and military developments beyond our shores.

	WorldNetDaily: The Clinton doctrine
		And I think Clinton and his apologists understood all along this would be the case.
		Their protests about the airing of the tape were designed to focus attention on an unloaded "smoking gun." Clinton was proud of his performance in that hearing.
		That is a particularly interesting point given the fact that this whole scandal was born in a sexual harassment lawsuit against the president.

	And Now, A Clinton Doctrine? -- Ivo H. Daalder (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-14)
		The Nixon Doctrine in 1969 took a step back, asking countries in Asia to do more to ensure their own internal security and prepare for defense against all but major powers.
		This self-described foreign policy doctrine is more ambitious than any of its predecessors, committing American power not only to defend vital national interests in a specific region but to protect human rights wherever and whenever they are violated.
		The real Clinton Doctrine is that America may intervene militarily, but only if the killings have been shown on television, if the country is located in an area of strategic significance, and if air power alone can do the job at acceptable cost.

	The Clinton Vision
		The reaction to Clinton's new vision falls well within these strictures, though to document the (virtually exceptionless) pattern of which this is a typical instance is something of a waste of time, as Orwell and Dewey recognized.
		The more firmly conclusions are established that challenge system-supportive doctrine, the more they must be suppressed; if the conclusions were established by the standards of physics, they would have to be buried so deep in the memory hole as to be completely beyond recovery.
		The Clinton Administration responded by establishing a Commission to inquire into this grim history; its mandate was to improve procedures, nothing more, because "We don't want to refight the battles of the 80's.

	Beyond The Clinton Doctrine: U.S. Military Intervention Policy
		The Clinton Doctrine, currently governing U.S. military intervention policy, is based upon a decision framework which is not suitable for discerning and prioritizing the nation's interests, resulting in reduced diplomatic credibility abroad.
		Clinton fully embraces the notion that military force may be appropriate to support coercive diplomacy in situations where less-than-vital national interests are at stake.
		Unless the framework of the Clinton Doctrine is changed, challenges to policy will never be focused in the minds of the leadership nor, subsequently, of the American people.

		President Clinton is preparing to deliver a major foreign policy speech focusing on America's southern neighbors shortly before embarking on an early-May trip to Mexico, Barbados, and Costa Rica, senior Administration officials say.
		Clinton is expected to emphasize the need for much closer consultation and cooperation with Mexico on a broad range of issues, including illegal immigration, environmental improvement, and drug trafficking.
		But Clinton fought against an effort in Congress to decertify Mexico as an effective partner in the war on drugs, and the decertification measure recently stalled in the Senate.

		The second rule of the Clinton Doctrine can be set out in this fashion: if the views of the people contradict those of the US president, any genuinely democratic government will tell the people to go to hell, and will act in line with its duty as an ally.
		Finally, the last rule of the Clinton doctrine: the technological and military superiority of the US as the leading world power allows it to do whatever it likes with total impunity.
		The Clinton Doctrine is suffering the same fate in Yugoslavia as the Brezhnev Doctrine suffered in Afghanistan.

	A Call for the Clinton Doctrine
		In a classic waffle, President Bill Clinton has flopped back and forth on Internet speech issues--signing the Communications Decency Act into law, then defending it in the courts with a wink and a nod by saying that his administration really didn't intend to enforce the now-defunct measure's most onerous elements.
		If President Clinton really wants to be remembered in history, it is time for the Clinton Doctrine -- a set of principled standards to guide future government action during the next two generations of what is sure to be an extended cyberspace migration.
		That Doctrine would turn "building a bridge to the 21st Century" from a cheap piece of political sloganeering into a national goal.

		From this premise, Clinton goes on to assert that "if we have the power to stop it, we ought to." And this U.S. power can be used either "within or beyond the borders" of any country (Clinton interview,6/20/99).
		Clinton's premise about the alleged "natural fear and hatred" amongst nationalities is not only blatant racism, it is also an attempt to cover over the crimes of imperialism.
		After bombing the length and breadth of the country for nearly three months, after killing or wounding 20,000 Yugoslavians and forcing hundreds of thousands to become refugees, after destroying the economic and social infrastructure of the country, the U.S.-NATO allies are partitioning the country and occupying it with 50,000 troops.

	Serbia Info News / The Washington Post - The Farce of "Clinton Doctrine"
		Recently a journalist of the CNN TV network asked Clinton whether or not he would agree with the statement that, through the military intervention against Yugoslavia and the bombing, he had created the so-called "Clinton Doctrine".
		While analyzing Clinton's statements, he points out to his two main lies - that the intervention against Yugoslavia was allegedly an action of the "international community" and that the reason for it was the humanitarian protection of an ethnic group.
		Judging from what Clinton has done in the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia, America could now, with the excuse of human rights, intervene within sovereign states, even where the USA has no interests whatsoever, says the author, reminding that the USA have made a dangerous precedent.

	The McLaughlin Group Library : Transcript
		Clinton says American military power should be used to protect ethnic minorities and deliver oppressed people, as it was in Kosovo.
		That's why Clinton interventionism is widely regarded as "poison." It appears to commit the United States to the task of redressing grave crimes against humanity worldwide, even within the boundaries of sovereign states, and even when no American interests are involved.
		And yes, it is part of Clinton doctrine, if a dictator forces people across boundaries or ethnically cleanses people within a country, that the world does have a responsibility to intervene.

	TIME: The three ifs of a Clinton Doctrine - June 28, 1999
		Clinton ended the week with a visit to the two icons of his military campaign--scratchless U.S. air power in Italy and ruined ethnic-Albanian refugees in Macedonia.
		Clinton's doctrine is also a step up from the Powell doctrine, which offers guidelines for how to behave once the nation is committed to war but no advice about getting involved in the first place.
		Without an answer to that question, the Clinton doctrine may be as short-lived as the war.
