3 war of choice
•• war of choice, of necessity
•• * Из телерепортажа NBC News: Mr. Bush defended the invasion of Iraq, saying it was a “ war of necessity”. Это словосочетание существует не само по себе, а, как правило, в антонимической паре с a war of choice. См., например, название статьи бывшего зам. министра обороны США Л. Корба в Washington Post A War of Choice or of Necessity? Вот две цитаты из этой статьи:
•• Eight months after the Bush administration got us involved in a bloody war in Iraq, we are now told by one of Secretary of State Colin L. Powell’s closest advisers that Iraq was a war of choice after all. <...> On Nov. 4 Wolfowitz stated: “But one of the things that Sept. 11 changed was that it made it a war of necessity, not a war of choice.”
•• A war of necessity в принципе можно перевести как необходимая война, но хотелось бы сохранить эффект антонимии, т.е. нужно «зеркальное» прилагательное для перевода a war of choice. Необязательная война, по-моему, не годится. На мой взгляд, предпочтителен несколько тяжеловесный, но точный вариант война, которой можно [ было] избежать (кстати, так называлась книга Е.М. Примакова о первой войне в Заливе). Тогда a war of necessity – неизбежная война. И все же перевод высказывания Вольфовица не так прост. Может быть, так: Но после 11 сентября у нас уже не было выбора – этой войны просто нельзя было избежать. Возможно и сохранение антонимии в лаконичном варианте: ...война стала для нас не выбором, а обязанностью.
•• Интересно словосочетание a war president. Пример из статьи Дж. Уилла в Washington Post A War President’s Job:
•• Since Sept. 11, 2001, Americans have been told that they are at war. They have not been told what sacrifices, material and emotional, they must make to sustain multiple regime changes and nation-building projects. Telling such truths is part of the job description of a war president.
•• Поскольку варианты военный президент (или президент войны) и президент страны, находящейся в состоянии войны не подходят (один неверен, другой слишком длинен), приходится остановиться на варианте президент военного времени. Кстати, встречается и wartime president:
•• Bush must now choose if he will be a wartime president like his father – or unlike his father and like Ronald Reagan. (www.americasvoices.org)
•• Сам Буш предпочитает war president, так что мы имеем дело, по крайней мере отчасти, с «самоназванием»:
•• Mr Bush said he was a “ war president” and the top issue for voters should be the use of American power in the world. <...> “I’m a war president. I make decisions here in the Oval Office in foreign policy matters with war on my mind,” he said. (BBC) -«Я президент военного времени. Сидя в Овальном кабинете и принимая решения по внешней политике, я должен учитывать, что идет война».

* * *= ability, avenue, chance, eventuality, facility, feasibility, possibility, probability, prospect, scope, potentiality, maybe, eligibility, sporting chance.Ex: The ability to search on word stems is particularly valuable where the text to be searched is in free-language format.
Ex: In the attempt to match the above criteria, there are two fundamentally distinct avenues to the construction of the schedules of a classification scheme.Ex: In some authority files (titles, ISBN/ISSN, national bibliographic record numbers), no search of the file is made because there is little chance of finding the new entry in the file.Ex: It was not our intention, not indeed is it feasible, to cover every eventuality that will be encountered in producing A/Z index entries.Ex: Apart from this additional facility Double-KWIC indexes have most of the facilities, features and drawbacks of KWIC and KWOC indexes.Ex: However, even with selective indexing in combination, the limit of feasibility is usually reckoned to be compound subjects consisting of five terms.Ex: Apart from the names of subjects, the names of corporate bodies, persons, chemicals, trade products, and trade names are some other possibilities.Ex: Our system should be one which reduces the probability of error as far a possible.Ex: At the time OCLC started, there was no prospect for a national authority file.Ex: They permit much more scope for flexible synthesis than can be achieved with DC or LCC.Ex: The combination of optical projection and photographic reduction is already producing some results in microfilm for scholarly purposes, and the potentialities are highly suggestive.Ex: Instead of ranking the documents retrieved in probable order of relevance, the conventional search sorts the relevant sheep from the irrelevant goats and ignores the fact that there are a lot of ' maybe's' involved.Ex: The advantages of a foundation include tax-deductible donations, increased eligibility for grants, and the involvement of affluent and influential local figures as advocates for the public library service.Ex: The bear was shot in his cage and was never given a sporting chance to fight for his life.* abanico de posibilidades = kaleidoscope, kaleidoscope of possibilities.* abarcar
