People make fun of W for not immediately declaring Islam anathema to civilization. However, the smartest thing he could have done right after 9-11 was recognize that OBL wanted war declared on Islam so more Muslims would heed the call the jihad. He played it right, at the right time, and OBL has been gnashing his teeth over it ever since.

Exactly! "Phase one" is backfiring big time on them. Instead on declaring war on Islam and helping the recruitment effort, we are promoting the spread of freedom among Muslims. That is OUR "phase one". We need to look at this war of ideas from a long term perspective.
