Republican Sen. John McCain refused Wednesday to rule out a pre-emptive
war against another country, although he said one would be very
unlikely.
The likely Republican presidential nominee was asked Wednesday
at a town-hall style meeting if he would reject "the Bush
doctrine of pre-emptive war," a reference to Bush's decision
to invade Iraq without it having attacked the United States.
"I don't think you could make a blanket statement about
pre-emptive war, because obviously, it depends on the threat that
the United States of America faces," McCain told his audience
at Bridgewater Associates Inc., a global investment firm.
"If someone is about to launch a weapon that would devastate
America, or have the capability to do so, obviously, you would
have to act immediately in defense of this nation's national security
interests."
