The way to fight people like AlQ is not to look like a bunch of clones following orders but to send in a chaotic force, operating independently, which looks like anything from a rock to a chimp to a robot, regular person, priest, soldier, policeman, shop keeper, with a powerful and civilized brain and some goals and general guidelines.

You got that part right.

We will never succeed fighting an unconventional war using conventional tactics.

And we are too focused on Iraq. We have lots of these battles left to fight. It will be a long time before we can do another one this way. Winning in Iraq will not end it but losing in Iraq may end us.
