There is no hope for winning the GWOT if we cannot get traditional Muslims to reject Islamism

That's the plain simple truth. And there is no chance for such a rejection - unless bad guys take a major beating and get discredited - in Iraq.

Islamists don't "get respect" in the US -- the same way professional revolutionaries of an earlier age - Bolsheviks and Nazis -- were not taken seriously enough in Europe... until it was too late.
