What policy is best for the United States to reduce the threat
of Islamic extremist terrorism? Recent American presidents have
applied alternative conflict resolution approaches. Clinton
practiced conflict avoidance, talking tough but rarely retaliating
against anti-American terrorist attacks. G. W. Bush adopted a
fighter approach and the Global War on Terrorism and military
interventions in Afghanistan and Iraq reflect this strategy. Obama
introduced a third alternative: problem solving and extending
peaceful overtures while keeping up resistance. Will the strategy
succeed? Feste analyzes presidential rhetoric on counterterrorism
policy through the lens of issue framing, enemy aggression, self
-hardship, and victimization expressed in a variety of speeches
delivered by these chief executives to highlight and compare their
conflict resolution strategies.
