“War on Terror or Real Security”

George A. Lopez and David Cortright in Sojourners Magazine, vol. 33, no 1 (January, 2004), 30-34.

Lopez and Cortright propose moving from rhetoric of a global war on terror to a more focused policy of dealing with the quite differentiated terror groups that challenge global and U.S. security. They argue for more aggressive pursuit of financial assets and an intensive use of allied goodwill in forging more cooperative links for pursuit of terrorists. They critique the war in Iraq and other arguments for pre-emptive war against states as being detrimental to winning the struggle against al-Qaeda.
