"Sullying Our Reputation"
Chicago Tribune
By Joseph S. Nye, Harvard University Distinguished Service Professor
"...there is no way to take back the pictures of a soldier holding a Muslim on a leash or a hooded prisoner standing on a box with wires dangling from his body, but the fact that we have a free press, independent courts and a Congress willing to confront the executive and reaffirm the values expressed in the ban against torture provides us a similar measure of soft power."

"The New Martyrs Go Global"

But we should be disabused of the belief that withdrawal alone will appease the new martyrs. Instead, the countries affected by suicide attacks must step up the battle for the hearts and minds of alienated young Muslims. This war of ideas should expose the hypocrisy of global jihad, but it must also consist of a more sensitive engagement with the Muslim world."
