A "hawk" is a person who advocates the settlement of disputes by force. Hawks are used to describe people, groups or forces who advocate strong diplomatic means or active military expansion. Another interpretation is an individual, group or force that defends national interests with a tough attitude or means.
Doves are people who advocate solving problems by peaceful means. Doves are used to describe people, groups or forces who advocate flexible and gentle attitudes and means to deal with diplomatic and military issues.
Eagles are stronger, fiercer and more aggressive than pigeons. In the eyes of Americans, the victory of the Iraq war is the victory of the hawks. Therefore, after the United States won the Iraq war, it was not General Franks, the commander-in-chief of the front line, but Rumsfeld, the Secretary of Defense.
The United States dominated by hawks and the United States controlled by doves constitute a complete United States. However, in the face of national interests, "hawks" and "doves" do not have a life-and-death struggle, but both serve the global strategy of the United States.
Extended data:
Hawks originated from an intellectual organization called Hawk. The organization is mainly composed of Democrats and party member in some states in the south and west of the United States. Mainly in the US Congress, most senior representatives and a bunch of people in the party.
These people encouraged the war against Britain-the Royal Navy's intervention in the land and sea transportation in the United States aroused their dissatisfaction, which they thought was not conducive to the economic development of the United States and damaged the prestige of the United States-although the Royal Navy did not directly affect the southern States where farming was dominant at that time.
For the United States, "doves" represent rational America and advocate peaceful evolution. Starting from the national interests of the United States, only when the "hawks" are in trouble for the wealth seized by the United States will the "doves" come out to appease others.
