Alright, let's say 30 Million...now, how many of them folks are willing to fight to their deaths in a hopeless cause while they watch their neighbors prosper by adapting alleged INFIDEL values of representative democracy and free-market capitalism?!
As the West succeeds, I'll bet that number decreases markedly.

Good point, just like we defeated the Japaneses suicide bombers,(Shintoists) we can probably defeat the Islamic suicide bombers. However, if you think Muslims will EVER want to embrace free markets, and capitolism? Read the below article:
"Here is the hierarchy of human worth in Islam:
At the summit are free male Muslims
Next come Muslim male slaves
Then come free Muslim women
Next come Muslim slave women.
Then come free Jewish and /or Christian men
Then come slave Jewish and/or Christian men
Then come slave Jewish and/or Christian women.
Non-Muslims are not considered, or treated, as equals.
You and Meek both make the mistake of identifying with some individual muslims who don't really follow the Islamic teachings, vs the idealogy of the radicals, (like Osama bin Laden) who actually do.
I'm sure we could find individual members of the Communist and Nazi parties, who in all probability, were very likable folks, and weren't part of the mass slaughter that those two parties caused...
But the fact that we could find these *individuals*...does not change the *nature* of Communist or the Nazi parties, does it?
The same can honestly be said about the Islamic religion, as a whole.
