This problem does not have a non-genocidal solution.

I disagree. The problem with Islam is not a genetic one with it's proponents, it's a problem of culture. Unfortunately, the culture of Islam has put in place a number of self referential incentives, a friend calls these "negative feedback loops". These can be terminated, but it will take one of two things:
1. A slow and constant pressure on their system for a period of years, maybe MANY years, but over time, their systems will change.
2. A MASSIVE shock to their culture and value system which causes them to reexamine everything about their culture and lifestyles.
The scenario I see playing out is that some nutjob gets a bomb from Iran or Pakistan, and they bomb a western city. (I'm hoping for LA because of the sociological impact and frankly because I don't live there. It's also fairly easy to get a bomb into the port of Long Beach without having to worry about passing Suez or Panama.) Once that happens we respond by reducing the non oil generating population centers of the Arab world to glass...then the people who are left decide to sincerely "rethink Islam".
