Questioning Candidates' Security Ideas after 9/11
Philip Bobbitt and John C. Danforth | September 11, 2008
Both presidential candidates honorably chose to put politics aside on the anniversary of 9/11, but there are various open questions on security. ++ One of these questions asks how willing can the US be to attack Pakistan if its new government refuses to cooperate in the war against terror. ++ Other questions concern the candidate's plans to authorize the use of force or to collaborate with Israel to stop the Iranian nuclear program. ++ As 9/11 painfully reminds everyone, security "challenges insistently reassert themselves."
