Their jihad is against the infidel, and as long as the infidel exists, they will fight and try to kill the infidel. I don't hear them calling for food or water or medicine, I hear them calling for the destruction of Isreal and Jews and any who would support them. I hear them demanding Islamic law be followed. They hate the culture of the west. I don't see a way to make them satisifed without complete surrender to what they wish for socially and religiously.

I think that message only flies with the down and outs - you don't see many shiek suicide bombers.

But the only viable alternative I see, is something horrificly geuesome - it means full and complete genocide, becasue as long as one of them lives, it's a threat. I'm not sure I have the stomach for that, though I'm certain of it's effectiveness.

That said, at the moment we can do nothing to satisfy the jihadists - what work we do now can only be realized in future generations - should Iraq truely become a thriving (econmically successful) democracy, that is a win for us. I think we have to find ways to make their movement irrelavent - I think most people just want to live their lives in peace.
