2008 Issue - Terrorism

This review is a thoughtful overview of the much of the current state of the "War on Terror". I like Power a lot. She's smart, balanced, and appears to let facts rather than ideology primarily inform her observations and prescriptions. (Or maybe I'm just saying that because I agree with her.) :)

She is right on in pointing out that the Democrats have not put forward any clear and compelling message on how they would address the al Qaeda threat. "Work more with our allies" doesn't cut it. I don't think that having an intelligent and nuanced strategy means that you can't find a crisp, attractive way to communicate it.
