losing the numbers game?
According to a shrill critic of the administration, we may be are losing the war against terrorism:
- "The United States and its allies are winning some battles in the terrorism war but may be losing the broader struggle against Islamic extremism that is terrorism's source, ________ said Saturday. The troubling unknown, he said, is whether the extremists -- whom he termed ''zealots and despots'' bent on destroying the global system of nation-states -- are turning out newly trained terrorists faster than the United States can capture or kill them. ''It's quite clear to me that we do not have a coherent approach to this,'' _____ said at an international security conference."
Who is this shrill critic? Guesses?
