The Jihadists have been branded terrorists by the International community.

Your point is?

They first have to fight each other.

Why?

They are killing each other at a much higher rate then they are killing us.

Are they? I guess it depends on how you define Jihadists. In any case their killing other Muslims is bad thing not a positive thing, many of those Muslims are not Jihadists, and even if it wasn't a problem the fact remains that they do kill us as well.

They can not maintain bank accounts.

Not true.

They can not occcupy territory.

Mostly true, even if probably not completely true. But to the extent it is true its because we fight them. Stop fighting them and things change. In the short run they don't have to control territory to be a problem, in the long run if we don't fight them they will be able to control territory.
