Cabinet ministers have been told by the Foreign Office to drop the phrase
'war on terror' and other terms seen as liable to anger British Muslims and
increase tensions more broadly in the Islamic world.

The shift marks a turning point in British political thinking about the
strategy against extremism and underlines the growing gulf between the
British and American approaches to the continuing problem of radical
Islamic militancy. It comes amid increasingly evident disagreements between
President George Bush and Tony Blair over policy in the Middle East.
