Angler, re: ...can't recall where a philosophic idea has ever been vanquished producing amiable results for the losers as well as the winners.

Well, perhaps you'll disagree, but what about the philosophies of Hitler and Imperialist Japan. My German wife certainly appreciates post-WW2 Germany without Hitler.

The followers of a philosophy will not exit by our destroying or subjugating their most faithful numbers...

It is not the followers of Islam that must be destroyed, rather the dictators and extremists that produce the anti-west hate, exposing their propaganda for what it is.

...one would hope that we can reason together through longer periods of interaction.

I believe that's what Chamberlain hoped as well.

It's time that honest leaders emerge in involved Muslim nations like Saudi Arabia and speak out more forcefully...

The dictators of the arab countries (including Saudi Arabia) stay in power through propaganda, just as Hitler did. It is unrealistic to expect that change can come from within when all such efforts are crushed.
