Sorry to disagree, but it appears to be an ex-doctrine.

I suggest you read the article.

"I must confess to being puzzled by the amazing spread of the idea that the Bush Doctrine has indeed failed the test of Iraq. After all, Iraq has been liberated from one of the worst tyrants in the Middle East; three elections have been held; a decent constitution has been written; a government is in place; and previously unimaginable liberties are being enjoyed. By what bizarre calculus does all this add up to failure? And by what even stranger logic is failure to be read into the fact that the forces opposed to democratization are fighting back with all their might?"

You may disagree. But that assumes that we have given up in our installation of allied democracies in Afghanistan and Iraq, and that we are not going to confront Iran or Syria.

Bush gave Israel more time than was needed. Israel went in fits and starts. That crap of going in, then coming right back out again was stupid. They should have been at the river and had Hezbollah cut off day 10 max. If you are going to take Vienna take Vienna.
