I find it difficult to be concerned over the terrorists "inner conflict." My only concern is that we stop them, by whatever means necessary.

I think that "by any means necessary" should include psychological warfare. If young Muslim men identify becoming suicide bombers as a sign of true manhood, we need to fight that by suggesting that suicidal violence is a sign of un-Islamic doubt and apostasy and weakness, a proof that they have become infidels. We can't keep saying "Islam is a religion of peace." That isn't working. I'm trying to come up with some new approach, and pardon me if it's tentative and maybe wrong or not thoroughly thought out at this point. We need to emasculate the suicide bomber mythos.
