"We need to infiltrate the enemy's core institutions--the Islamic academies and the radical mosques themselves--and weaken them structurally."

I thought that was one of their major complaints against us ... we had exported porn, women's rights, individual liberty and freedom, etc. into their culture.

True.

But the imports you describe (porn, women's rights, etc.) are manifestly alien and therefore easily rejected.

Gramscianism is subtler than that. It feels natural and good. It feel like an organic development.

Would it help the war effort if I mailed my excessive Jenna Jameson movie
collection to a distribution center in Kabul?

Yes -- and we need to step it up greatly for the new and improved Afghanistan, Iraq, and whatever other Jihadistans need to be uprooted.
