 Global Citizen 2000 - Building a New Iraq
The best U.S. foreign policy towards Iraq will be to act a facilitator of Iraqi desires rather than to try to manipulate the IIG and successor elected governments to adopt policies that replicate our own views of how democracy should operate.
Violence, questionable policy decisions by the U.S. government, and intra-elite struggle should not be allowed to derail what could turn out to be one of the defining moments of the modern Middle East, namely an Iraq characterized by a functioning democracy, a government that promotes political tolerance and social justice, and a flourishing civil society.
Iraqis must be given the power to shape their own future if democratic institutions and practices are to be seen as culturally authentic and not as imported from abroad.

 Foreign Policy Research Institute WIRE
Students of either military history or current military institutions have devoted little attention to it, yet it may be the most important factor not only in military effectiveness on the battlefield, but in the processes of innovation during times of peace.
Stated simply, military culture comprises the ethos and professional attributes, derived from both experience and intellectual study, that contribute to military organizations' core, common understanding of the nature of war.
Less easily studied than defined, its influence on military institutions is almost always the result of long- term factors rarely measurable and often obscure both to historians and to those actually serving in the institutions -- obscure, that is, until a war begins.

Unlike a teaching institution, we do not engage in abstract studies for their own sake, but are in the business of applying knowledge-bringing specialized information and theoretical concepts to bear on issues of the moment.

 Shelley Rigger, "TAIWAN'S PERILOUS TRANSITION," Foreign Policy Research Institute, 6 June 2001
The influence Taiwan's Presidents Chiang Kai-shek, Chiang Ching- kuo and Lee Teng-hui derived from their status as chairmen of the all- powerful KMT masked the institutional weakness of the presidency, so it was only after several months in office that President Chen began to appreciate fully the constraints on his office.
Policy statements out of Washington suggest that under the Bush Administration, Taiwan's relationship with the US will be stronger and more secure than it has been for decades.
At the same time, KMT legislators whose policy preferences and political loyalties are close to those of former president Lee Teng-hui are being courted by the DPP, which sees them as potential coalition partners.

Goldstein argues that while an agreement guaranteeing a "nuclear-free" North Korea would be desirable for the United States, there remain other strategic outcomes that fall short of that goal but may nonetheless prove advantageous to US interests in reducing the risk of the spread of nuclear materials.
This position reflects not only the long-standing nonproliferation policy of the US dating to the 1960s, but also more recent security concerns that emerged after the Cold War and especially after 9/11.
In the early 21st century, it is the danger of nuclear terrorism, not the danger of new nuclear states that should drive American proliferation policy.

 FPRI : September 11 : Before & After
Had the Ba'ath problem been ended earlier, too, the sanctions regime against Iraq would have ended with it, and with both the pretext -- for that is all it is -- for those who accuse the United States of state terrorism by "killing over a million" Iraqi civilians.
It would be wrong to say that all of this money supports terrorism, but it does inculcate attitudes and sustain institutions that, in combination with other factors, do promote terrorism.
Many have observed that the September 11 attack has given the United States a foreign policy focus, comparable to that of the Cold War, that works as an organizing principle.
