Redefining the Response stratfor.com Thanks combjelly for the link "The U.S. government will need to use a new approach, one that involves redefining the entity it holds responsible, as it plans a response to yesterday's attacks. The United States cannot go to war with every Islamic country that harbors or aids the attackers. It is simply not feasible militarily. The United States can go to war against the attackers themselves, making it clear that neither geographical barriers nor unproven guilt will protect them. It is not a perfect model, but it is a model that can work: Define the attackers as an entity, seek them out by any means and destroy them. This challenge will require a level of trust in the intelligence community that has been severely shaken by this and other events. It requires that they be given powers that they had prior to the 1970s but which have since been taken away from them. You cannot wage a war of permissions. Therefore, this is where the intelligence failures and lack of trust come home to haunt the United States. The United States needs a superb covert operations capability -- of unquestioned skill and moral virtue -- to wage this war. Whether the United States has such a capability is what will have to be decided. But the other choices are between wild overcommitment and impotence."
