This does not help. Why not applaud the writer for pointing out exactly what should be done? This and similar articles need to be broadcast across the media. You cannot root out this kind of terrorism without obtaining the wholehearted support of the "host" community. They have to turn on these cowardly and murderous thugs and maniacs. Northern Ireland is a perfect example. The IRA relaunched its terrorism campaign in 1978 and 27 years later it is still finding shelter and maintaining legitimacy among large segments of the community. What we need are hard-nosed, practical solutions not folks pouring gasoline on the fire. The author at least is thinking.

Most disturbingly, however, al-Qaeda’s ­continuing success defines the central ­failure within moderate Islam to ­identify, control and stamp out its extremists. The enemy, it appears, is already among us.

About sums up everything here.
