在阿富汗和伊拉克战争爆发前的几年里，人们对国防的思考是由这样的观念所驱动的，即认为成功的军事行动本身就是目的，而不仅仅是一种必须与其他国家协调才能实现和维持政治目标的权力工具。
(In the years leading up to the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq, thinking about defense was driven by ideas that regarded successful military operations as ends in themselves rather than just one instrument of power that must be coordinated with others to achieve - and sustain - political goals.)
