Summary

This Paper argues that prevailing in the 'war' on terror entails containment, deterrence, out performance and engagement. Military power is secondary to intelligence, law enforcement, enlightened social policy and diplomacy. Diplomatic engagement with the Muslim world is paramount in denying al-Qaeda the 'clash of civilisations' it seeks.
