What Successful Counterterrorism Means Posted by Patrick Barry

A controversial difference between this administration and the last is that this one appears to see the connection between U.S.’ ability to project power abroad rests on the power of its example.  Philosophically, this means “reject[ing] the false choice between protecting our people and upholding our values.”  Concretely, it means doing things like trying terrorists in civilian courts, closing Guantanamo, and not torturing.

It’s worth pointing out that the administration doesn’t do these things just because it feels good to do them or because it strikes some kind of intellectual balance, but because they’re actually proven elements of successful counterterrorism:

Rep. Jane Harman (D - CA) explained earlier this month, "I think if we really want to do counterterrorism right, we have to eliminate one of Al Qaeda's top recruiting tools, that's Guantanamo Bay."

Former Republican Congressman Mickey Edwards: civilian courts are 65 times more effective than military commissions.  “Critics “scowl and declare that our American courts will not, or can not, convict terrorists.  They seem pretty damned certain of that.  Which is weird since nearly 200 terrorists have been convicted in our federal courts in the last nine years (that's 65 times as many as have been convicted by military commissions).”

Former FBI agent, Ali Soufan, told the Senate Judiciary Committee that torture, “from an operational perspective, are slow, ineffective, unreliable, and harmful to our efforts to defeat al-Qaida,”

Hi,
Terrorism was viewed as a phenomenon with political, economic, social and law and order dimensions, all of which had to be tackled in a holistic manner. Better governance, better identification and redressal of grievances, better inter-communal and inter-religious relations, better physical security, better policing and better police-community relations were all considered equally important components of any counter-terrorism policy.
