The Yemen Model

Today I published an op-ed in the NY Times, arguing that the “Yemen model” approach to counterterrorism is deeply flawed.  I also suggest a way forward for the Obama administration in selecting a new CIA director. 

You can read the whole piece here.

Fortunately or unfortunately, as the case may be, I had to leave Denver early this morning for a flight back home (I just found out there was WIFI on the plane – thank you, Delta) and so I have not had a chance to discuss the piece with all the people who have been tweeting at me.
