    "Commonly identified shortcomings include an allegedly overweening U.S. military response; an underemphasis on the "soft power" approach--winning hearts and minds; and a failure to appreciate that a resort to the military-based "hard power" approach to counter-terrorism, while sometimes necessary, makes exercising soft power more difficult."
