Running Toward the Flame by Robin Webber War on Terrorism Is Spiritual Warfare Al Qaeda terrorists labor to define the war on terrorism as the West vs. Islam-a definition that Western leaders throw off. Yet deeply entrenched religious issues are at the heart of the current war. And they are inflamed by a power greater than either the worldwide terrorist network or the combined military might of the United States, Britain, the rest of NATO and Russia. by Don Ward The earth's geopolitical landscape shifted dramatically with America's recent declaration of war against terrorism. Even one who regularly watches the news may be unaware of how dramatic this shift is. Changing coalitions The nations of NATO invoked article 5 that states an attack on one member is an attack on all. NATO allies further agreed to provide the United States with a complete eight-point list of assistance, including the use of AWACS surveillance planes that are now patrolling the U.S. East Coast (Reuters, October 7, 2001). Several Arab states voiced their support of America's war on terrorism. But most Arab states were long on rhetoric and short on substance as the coalition developed. Saudi Arabia granted the United States permission to use one of its bases, but stated that it would not permit the United States to launch attacks on Muslims from Saudi soil.
