I like the strategy we've been using. Kill the bastards.

Seems to be working pretty good so far.

Yep. We find them, kill them, and they EXIT. Works for me!

[Czar]

Exactly. The more the better. Dead bodies don't resurface to kill our troops. Screw 'em--pile them up like firewood. Our guys are showing them what a real jihad looks like...

Exactly. When your opponent is on his heels it is the perfect time to strike harder. As he begins to doubt himself and questions his cuase, up the levy and make the cost even higher. The only way to quell a guerilla opponent is to demoralize him.

I think you have to systematically remove his reasons for fighting. Make it very costly to excercise his options. By having the elections, we made their cause functionally obsolete. We need to make it clear now more than ever that we are coming to kill you if you continue to resist. The AKs will go back in the mud huts and they will integrate into society once again. That is the Baathists anyway. The Islamists are rabid killers, monsters who saw heads off in the name of their god. These vermin should simply be exterminated.
