He criticized the administration’s approach as “quite vague”. He called the Bush doctrine of ‘rollback’, in which the U.S. tries to end the root cause of terrorism by replacing failing autocracies in the Arab world with democracies, “a very demanding program” but a legitimate, if costly and risky, view.

At the moment, we’re in what political scientists describe as a unipolar world. There’s one superpower, we overawe all other contestants, and that has a variety of advantages for the United States and some would argue for the world at large. But no condition of unipolarity is ever going to be permanent. Sooner or later—the Romans fell, the British Empire fell—sooner or later, there will be a contestant with the United States for this status, and an important responsibility of grand strategists and the American political elite is to delay, if we can, this condition of the rise of a rival power. Even if you think that the war on terror is our first priority, it remains at least an important responsibility to worry about the longer term future and what’s going to happen if China, perhaps, or if India, or if some other rising power comes to challenge our current position in the world in ways that could create a risk of a much more serious military conflict at much higher levels of intensity with much higher levels of loss of life, and try and do what we can to postpone that day. It may be inevitable but it can be later rather than sooner.
