520 _aThis document suggests that the West has been surprised by the characteristics of global insurgency. The West's collective military experience and existing doctrine did not anticipate a campaign so energized by spiritual, global, and virtual dimensions; they were not prepared for the multifaceted characteristics of the international response that the adversary has compelled. This document argues that in a longer campaign beyond Iraq, U.S.--led coalitions will have to become part of a mosaic of activities that are globally spread, politically driven, more internationally constituted, and manoeuvrist in concept. It describes the foreign policy problems associated with moving from counterterrorism into a genuine counterinsurgent strategy and summarizes the existing practical experience of coalitions.
