    Security Challenges for the Next Administration

    President-elect Barack Obama has assembled a bipartisan, centrist national security team, with an emphasis on pragmatic competence. Already faced with a daunting foreign policy inbox, the incoming administration must formulate a response to the Mumbai terrorist attacks without undermining either the current administration’s credibility or the already-weak Pakistani government.

    A Way Out of Guantánamo

    One of President-elect Barack Obama's top priorities will be to rethink the "war on terror" from the ground up. That means following through on his campaign promises to close the U.S. military prison at Guantánamo, which would be a major symbolic achievement. Transparency, due process, and legality are some of the strongest weapons in the struggle against violent extremism.

    Mumbai Attacks

    The Mumbai attacks bear the hallmarks of Lashkar-e-Taiba, a group which operated in Kashmir in the 1990s, but has global reach today. It was founded and supported by the ISI, Pakistan’s intelligence agency. If Lashkar-e-Taiba responsible for the attacks, Pakistan will face new scrutiny from the U.S. as an ally in the war on terror.

    The bombings of the U.S. embassy in Sana’a this past September points to possibilities of an increased presence of Al-Qaeda in Yemen. Understanding the context in which Jihadi groups emerge, the role of apolitical Salafi groups in the broader Salafism debate, and Saudi Arabia's role in defining the global Salafi movement is vital for the creation of proper policy responses in the region.
