I agree with you Captain. You have to take the action to them (I refuse to say war, because you can not pose an effective war against an ideology). You must use special forces hunting teams and give them free reign to kill as they see fit. That will help eliminate the rabelrousers. From that point forward you must use diplomacy and education to win the hearts and minds of the general public. Only through education can you truely do that. That means you must work with the moderates through a diplomatic effort to establish local schools and univerities under the auspices of these leaders. Allow them to be the drivers and reward them greatly for their participation. Is a billion dollars a day in Iraq as a police operation a good thing, or spending that billion dollars over a decade to establish an educational system that will win out in the long run? I pick education over a decade.
