Going to war is what allows us to defend ourselves. Please stop confusing policy with the ability of our nation to go to war. For the past decade (or so) there has been a general concensus that the US military needs to be capable of fighting two simultaneous wars in two theatres. It's pretty damned apparent that our military was only able to accomplish carrying on two simulataneous operations in Afghanistan and Iraq because we had a strong National Guard.
The policy of pre emptive invasion is completely different than the argument that the military should have the ability to "more easily go to war".
