Obama Calls ‘Bridges of Communication’ the Key to Winning Against Terrorism | Video | TheBlaze.com:

"The president further said there should be more dialogue within countries and within faiths.

“We all recognize the need for more dialogues across countries and cultures; those efforts are indeed important, but what’s most needed today, perhaps, are more dialogues within countries, not just across faiths, but also within faiths,” Obama said. “Violent extremists and terrorists thrive when people of different religions or sects pull away from each other and are able to isolate each other and label them as ‘they’ as opposed to ‘us,’ something separate and apart. So we need to build and bolster bridges of communication and trust.”

Obama said that all governments have a role to play to curb the propaganda and announced that the government of the United Arab Emirates is joining the United States in the effort to connect youth."
