Sorry, bad logic again. As you know, getting the last 5% of anything increases the costs exponentially far beyond all value.
We NEVER killed all the Japanese on the islands we cut off. We just left them there to starve or give up. None were ever a problem.
But worse, according to your logic, you would ADD another 200,000 jihadists to the equation by killing people who really had no issue in the conflict. Not good strategy.

Crazy Horse apparently didn't hear about that.
On the other hand, Davy and the boys at the Alamo wish the Mexicans had.
One of course, has too understand the value of Victory. Or just the value of doing a job well. This means finishing it. Well at least it used to. Nowadays, with the GOP, I guess we kinda just outsource it.
You see when you annihilate the enemy, he nor others EMBOLDENED by him, come back to bite you.
Victory does not create followers of the losing side. Defeat, does. We have created many more followers of Islamic Terrorist - by retreating from victory and into defeat in Fallujah.
