Washington, December 3: Islamic
schools in Pakistan, charitable institutions in Saudi Arabia and immigrant
ghettos in European cities should be targeted in the post-Taliban phases
of the anti-terror war, even as efforts should be taken to change the leadership
in Iraq, The Washington Post said.
"That search (for terrorist networks)
should go wherever fresh intelligence leads it - it likely will lead to
charitable institutions in Saudi Arabia, immigrant ghettos in European
cities and Islamic schools of Pakistan before it finds its way to Saddam
Hussein's Baghdad bunker," The Post said in its editorial.
The groundwork for regime change
in Iraq can be laid by forging a more effective opposition, formulating
a realistic political scheme for a post-Saddam regime, and making it clear
to Arab and European states as well as Russia that action is essential
and inevitable, it said.
Tightening sanctions and organising
a last attempt tore turn UN weapons inspectors to Iraq could be part of
the process, the report added.
