00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:01,140
GUEST SPEAKER: So
in the end, I would

2
00:00:01,140 --> 00:00:02,848
like to conclude it
like this, that there

3
00:00:02,848 --> 00:00:05,550
is no military solution
to the terrorism.

4
00:00:05,550 --> 00:00:08,189
However, with a well
thought out, limited,

5
00:00:08,189 --> 00:00:10,410
and accurately
executed action, could

6
00:00:10,410 --> 00:00:13,080
fulfill the short-term goals.

7
00:00:13,080 --> 00:00:16,020
A more comprehensive and
a policy-oriented approach

8
00:00:16,020 --> 00:00:18,120
is essential to
address this problem.

9
00:00:18,120 --> 00:00:20,340
There is a need
to understand why

10
00:00:20,340 --> 00:00:22,860
the public opinion in
the Muslim countries

11
00:00:22,860 --> 00:00:24,750
is against United States.

12
00:00:24,750 --> 00:00:28,770
It's important to note that
majority of the people,

13
00:00:28,770 --> 00:00:31,230
though they are not
supportive of US policies,

14
00:00:31,230 --> 00:00:33,720
but they are not
for the terrorism.

15
00:00:33,720 --> 00:00:36,990
So particularly in the
Middle East, their policy--

16
00:00:36,990 --> 00:00:39,060
largely people
criticize this policy,

17
00:00:39,060 --> 00:00:42,330
but they are not supporting
terrorists at large.

18
00:00:42,330 --> 00:00:45,368
There are very few who
support terrorism against US.

19
00:00:45,368 --> 00:00:47,160
And another thing I
would like to point out

20
00:00:47,160 --> 00:00:51,630
is that it is certainly not
the democracy and freedom most

21
00:00:51,630 --> 00:00:53,250
of the people over here thinks.

22
00:00:53,250 --> 00:00:57,540
That it's democracy and freedom,
which they don't like about US.

23
00:00:57,540 --> 00:01:01,330
It's certainly other things
they are worried about.

24
00:01:01,330 --> 00:01:03,300
And this need to reach
out to the public

25
00:01:03,300 --> 00:01:06,420
instead of just focusing
on their rulers, which

26
00:01:06,420 --> 00:01:08,680
are not democratic setup.

27
00:01:08,680 --> 00:01:11,250
So there's a difference between
the rulers in the Muslim word

28
00:01:11,250 --> 00:01:13,640
and the general public.
