BUSH 'ON PAR WITH GERMAN WAR PLAN'

AMERICA'S war on terror was likened yesterday to Germany's strategy during two world wars.

President Bush was warned that his campaign could drag the US into conflicts with countries that posed no real threat.

The invasion of Iraq was an unnecessary part of America's "dangerously indiscriminate and ambitious" war on terror, said a report published by the US Army War College.

It said the White House should focus on al-Qaeda.

The report's author, Professor Jeffrey Record, said the anti-terrorism campaign is "strategically unfocused, promises more than it can deliver, and threatens to dissipate US military resources in an endless and hopeless search for absolute security".

Prof Record, comparing Bush's strategy to Germany's, said: "Keep your enemies to a manageable number. The Germans were defeated in two wars...because their strategic ends outran their means."
