The Nov. 13 terrorist attacks in Paris demonstrated a change in strategy by the Islamic State — a willingness to strike outside of the Middle East. However, this yields an opportunity for a U.S.-led coalition to come together to defeat a common enemy, writes Baker Institute director Ambassador Edward P. Djerejian. 

To access the Arabic translation of the ambassador's policy brief outlining the key elements of a coordinated strategy toward defeating ISIS, download the PDF on the left-hand sidebar. Asharq Al Awsat published this work as an op-ed (Arabic) on Jan. 3, 2016.
