US foreign policy is as volatile as pendulum movements. This change is not fundamental but a change in strategies while maintaining principles. Thus, a change of government is a change in process that must vary according to time and place, which does not change the fundamental orientations of American foreign policy. The main issue of the present study is to explain the evolution of US defense and security policy in West Asia in the neoconservative era. Accordingly, the question is what changes in US defense and security policy in the neoconservative era. In answer to this question, the author assumes that the evolution of US defense and security policy in the neoconservative era is not a fundamental change but a change in strategies while maintaining principles. According to this worldview, the orientation of foreign policy and its security view on global issues is moving towards hegemonic stability. This thinking was instrumental in taking an aggressive approach to West Asia in the aftermath of September 11, 2001. The article is based on the theory of bold realism based on the analysis of "John Mir Scheimer" and using a descriptive-analytical research method.

Keywords: Defense Policy, Security Policy, West Asia, Neoconservatives, Aggressive Realism
