I'm not about to hold all Muslims accountable for the actions of an extreme minority as are many warhawks who prefer the genocide option.

The precepts of Islam as described in the Koran are incompatible with a country founded on Judeo-Christian principles. To resolve that inconsistency, the practice of Islam or those who practice it will have to be reformed. Just as Christians have had to adjust to life in a free society with sinners of all stripes and colors, so Islamists will have to be tolerant of the laws of the land and not vice-versa. Accordingly, the extreme aspects of Islam ideology that run counter to western ideology will have to be conquered. So in summary, divide extremists (those advocating jihad) from moderates and conquer ideology that is incompatible with western values by reforming Islam and/or converting those who practice it.
