Hawks: prominent American Neoconservatives following hard-line and uncompromising attitude in foreign policy. This term is often used to define the beneficiaries of the status quo, people holding the power who practice politics based on US preventive military interventionism. 11th September 2001 gave the American hawks the first opportunity ever to take over full control over short-term tenets of American federal policy. This was the first step in the fulfillment of their broader plan concerning foreign policy and proving the dominant position of America in contemporary geopolitical system.
