The Iraq Strategy: Accelerating the Islamist Confrontation
Editorial Team
While
India struggles through
its deadlocked confrontation of Islamists assault of Pakistan on Jammu and
Kashmir for the last dozen years, September 11, 2001 has brought about a
sea change in the US strategy to tackle its own Islamist enemies. The
results are not yet in, but there is potential for considerable progress in
