The doctrine that in diplomacy or the international political field assassination can be a very effective means of avoiding war. Formally coined as a phrase in an opinion piece by journalist John Stanton in October 2002.
The coinage is a reference to a comment regarding the possibility of a war against Saddam Hussein in Iraq. In a press conference Ari Fleischer, the White House spokesman, said: "The cost of a one-way ticket is substantially less than the cost of war. The cost of one bullet, if the Iraqi people take it on themselves, is substantially less than that.

Get the single bullet doctrine mug.A mighty Australian Rules fotball team which trades under the name Wstern Bulldogs.
Established in 1883, the Footscray players have a notorious reputatio of being ruggged and uncompromising, and are known for ripping apart their opposition unmercilessly. And they also play football on the weekend.
The visiting team expects to receive a typical local greeting upon arrival in Footscray, which usually involves being attacked with ninja stars and nunchucks and then being turned into dim sims and served up at local Chinese restaurant - Jimmy Wongs - for 50 cents per serving.

Get the Footscray Bulldogs mug.n; When students travel from their homes to college on interstates or highways and form high speed caravans to prevent getting pulled over. This is common on I-35 with students traveling to the University of Oklahoma.
Ex 1:
Driving down I-35, Driver 1 passes drivers 2, 3 and 4 going 85 mph. drivers 2, 3, and 4 all speed up and follow Driver 1 at the same speed, thus resulting in a caravan traveling faster than the norm or speed limit.
Ex 2:
Tom: "Hey that guy is going 15 over, follow him!"
Collin: "Dude, I don't want to get pulled over."
Tom: "No worries, more people will join and we'll have a Texas Bullet Train!"
Collin: "Heck yes, Dallas to OKC in an hour!"
*High Five*
