How should the United States prosecute its war against global terrorism over the next several years?

Answer by  psychmajor (61)

In my opinion, just what President Obama is doing. Engaging with other countries to deal with the problems that breed terrorists, eliminate opportunities for them to have safe havens, engage diplomatically in the Middle East. And most important, begin to address the problems between Israel and the Palestinians, which is a flash point in recruiting terrorist wannabes.

The U. S. should emphasize cooperation with law enforcement and undercover informants all over the world. Terrorists are located in many countries, and military force will only be a recruiting tool for more terrorists. Diplomacy and economic aid will eliminate desperate conditions that attract people to terrorism for the money.
