Former Lib Dem leader Paddy Ashdown, who is also the chairman of a new commission on terrorism, has come out to say, most explicitly, that the current western strategy to combat terrorism is just plain wrong. In Lord Ashdown's words:
"Our problem is that we have chosen the wrong mindset, the wrong battlefield, the wrong weapons and the wrong strategies to win this campaign. We have chosen to fight an idea, primarily with force."
Rather succinct and to the point I would say but I don't think that Captain Codpiece is going to approve of the analysis.
