Soros: We need to break this cycle of violence (War On Terror Is Counterproductive)
Guardian UK ^ | 8/31/06

The concept of the war on terror is counterproductive, exposing everyone involved to further danger.

Israel's failure to subdue Hizbullah demonstrates the many weaknesses of the war-on-terror concept. One weakness is that even if the targets are terrorists, the victims are often innocent civilians, and their suffering reinforces the terrorist cause....

The people of Palestine yearn for peace and relief from suffering. The political - as distinct from the military - wing of Hamas must be responsive to their desires. It is not too late for Israel to encourage and deal with an Abbas-led Palestinian unity government as the first step towards a more balanced approach. What is missing is a US government that is not blinded by the war-on-terror concept.
