Lahore3

Adil Najam, Dean of the Frederick S. Pardee School of Global Studies at Boston University, said the March 27, 2016 terror attacks in Lahore, Pakistan, the latest in a string of a recent attacks, underscores the need for a united global front against extremism.

Najam made the argument in a March 28, 2016 article in The Boston Herald entitled “Extremist attack kills 65 in Pakistan.”

From the text of the article:

“I think we really need to connect those dots … you’re seeing this sort of violence erupt in various places, and we really need a global strategy, not a national strategy, to deal with this,” said Adil Najam, dean of the Frederick S. Pardee School of Global Studies at Boston University, suggesting a link between attacks such as those in Brussels, Paris and San Bernardino, Calif.
