“they will have to be forced to abandon their prime objective.” What is your prescription for accomplishing this?

My prescription is superior firepower and technology and an unwavering and crystal clear position stated world-wide that any act of war by Islamic-facists against the United States will be responded to ten-fold up to and including their annihilation, regardless of world opinion, and depending on how they choose to ratchet up the action, including innocent and guilty alike since they hide like cowards behind children and women. This is what they will get from the USA if they do not heed our clear warning. Choose wisely and live in harmony, because America will not submit. I think that's a clear prescription.

How does this differ from the German policy of reprisals as applied at Lidice?

While I understand your frustration with our present policy, implementing yours means that the Islamists could get us to wipe out any neighborhood they wished just by attacking us nearby.

How many women and children are you willing to kill to get one Islamist? Your policy is predicated on the assumption that the Islamists will be deterred by our killing lots of Muslims, many of whom are probably not Islamists (yet). Since Islamists enthusiastically kill lots of Muslim women and kids themselves, upwards of 150,000 in Algeria, this doesn't seem to me to be a very workable policy.
