Abstract:

The war against terrorism can be won, but only if the U.S. and its allies are prepared to use all the means at their disposal--military, political, and diplomatic--to achieve victory. Tentativeness and policy ambiguity create the perfect climate for terrorism. Courage, strength, and determination can defeat this late 20th century plague of terror.
