Battling al Qaeda: Is the United States winning?

Показать описание

Since Osama bin Laden's death in 2011, the Obama administration has maintained that al Qaeda is "on the run." But al Qaeda and related groups are increasingly spreading violence in Syria, Iraq, Libya, and elsewhere in the Muslim world. Some experts point to the splintering of al Qaeda groups as the key to dismantling the larger network and as a sign of success in the broader effort against Islamist extremism; others doubt that intraterrorist friction signals any real change in the strength and reach of the global organization.

Please join AEI and the Foreign Policy Research Institute as they cohost a discussion unraveling different perspectives on the al Qaeda challenge, assessing the success of current policies, and, in particular, focusing on the implications of growing factionalism among groups.
