Attackerman:
Effective counterterrorism is about strengthening American ties with Muslim communities and law-enforcement ties with American Muslim, he said again and again, not about targeting them. The right strategy to “destroy al-Qaeda” - he pretty much smiled when he said it, like he was picturing it in his mind - distinguishes between extremists and the civilian populations they exploit; addresses the sources of legitimate grievances among those populaces; isolates those who present illegitimate grievances; and then targets, locks and executes.
