Neoconservatives (Neocons) traditionally espouse the idea that America has a duty to promote its form of democracy throughout the world by any means, including military action. They, like the "hawks" during the Vietnam War, subscribe to the domino effect. For example, letting Iraq and Afghanistan fall to extremists will cause other close-by regions to do the same. Yet, fighting extremism is much subtler and requires a lot of diplomacy and understanding of each situation. Many see the world in shades of gray. Neocons see the world in black and white.
