He describes the political, strategic, conceptual, diplomatic, and ethical problems that can arise when a state's armed forces become engaged in counterterrorism, and argues that military power can only be employed as part of a coordinated counterterrorist strategy aimed at the containment and frustration -- rather than the physical elimination -- of the terrorist group(s) concerned. 517 $aMilitary's role in counterterrorism 606 $aWar on Terrorism, 2001-2009 606 $aTerrorism$xPrevention 606 $aInternal security 615 0$aWar on Terrorism, 2001-2009. 615 0$aTerrorism$xPrevention. 615 0$aInternal security. 676 $a363.325/17 700 $aHughes$b Geraint$f1975-$01370403 712 02$aArmy War College (U.S.).$bStrategic Studies Institute. 801 0$bAWC 801 1$bAWC 801 2$bGPO 801 2$bDOS 801 2$bGPO 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910693402903321 996 $aThe military's role in counterterrorism$93398741 997 $aUNINA
