Proceeding contribution from Baroness Stuart of Edgbaston (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 8 December 2005. It occurred during Adjournment debate on Terrorism (Foreign Policy Aspects).
Terrorism (Foreign Policy Aspects)
One thing that I hope will come out of the report of our visit to Saudi Arabia is that we are engaged in a battle of minds. Frederick the Great said that one cannot ride on horseback against ideas, but at the moment we have to do so. Saudi Arabians are extremely proactive at dealing with the kind of extremist ideas that are developing, so the picture is not quite as depressing as it might appear to be.
