From Pablo to Osama: counter-terrorism lessons from the war on drugs
Article Abstract:
Similarities among traffickers and terrorists, and lessons of war on drugs suggest a number of difficulties in dismantling terrorist networks when the US and its counter-terrorism partners have achieved substantial results against al-Qaeda. It is suggested that policymakers should move beyond a strategy based on leadership interdiction in order to prove victorious in the war on terrorism.

Article Abstract:
The American foreign policy will be more effective to counter Islamist terrorism by indirect promotion of religious tolerance in the Muslim world. Thus, United States must cultivate human rights activists and intellectuals as assiduously as it did to their Soviet counterparts during the Cold war.
