Even establishing pro-peace and tolerance websites for Muslims, rather than allowing young Muslims to be attracted to militant websites that promote terror could be a positive strategy that the governments of the West could embark upon with community leaders. Other anti-terrorism tactics consist of conducting litigation against terrorist actors, or supporters of terrorism, such as the current formal trial of Saddam Hussein, conducted according to the protocols of international law. Providing adequate protection for civilians working, living, or traveling in terrorist prone areas, such as Iraq, and ensuring that public places and areas that would be attractive to terrorists are adequately protected is another vital strategy. (Armond, 1997) Although there is no one solution to apprehending Zarqawi, at very least his potential reach can be curtailed, and his influence mitigated, through the use of effective anti-terrorist as well as counter-terrorist practices.
