If some of them aren't wiling to leave us alone, which is clearly the case, we should deal with them. That's the sticky wicket, isn't it?

One thing we should not do, however, is to engage in paranoid fantasies about their posing an existential threat to Western Culture, when they clearly don't. Such paranoia serves their purposes better than it serves ours. The best way to fight Islamic terrorism is to stay away from their soil. Take our eyes off their oil, build alternative energy sources and just leave them alone. Right now, peoople like you and me and many others in the US as stuck with our Christian terrorists and religious fanatics who want to clash with Islam. These religious fanatics are taking advantage of the 9/11 attack and want to perpetuate themselves in positions of power here in the US. These folks continuously post to the public scenes of planes flying into the towers. They are like the Islamists hard core brutal folks who have no regard for the sensibilities of the people. And like us, the moderate Muslims are also sandwiched between their religious terrorists and fanatics who spew American hate through outlets like Al Jazeera etc..
