"We need resolve."
Exactly. Just because it's hard to allow a religion while tracking down and killing the crazies who murder in it's name doesn't absolve us from doing it. We could use more help from Muslims who don't support violence, but at the very least we need to call Islamic terrorism what it is and wipe it out.

I'm glad someone sees it my way.
A large part of Islam declared war on the west. However, our concern is catching and killing terrorist crazies. Just because they do it because of their religion does not concern us from a legal standpoint. It has its uses in identification (read: airport security profiling is not a bad thing), but we aren't getting these guys for their relgion; we're getting them because they're the badguys. Why they're the badguys is important, but it doesn't change the necessary response.
We have the military capability to crush anyone. All we need is the will to do it. Take Iran for example. When we go to war with them, they are going to plaster pictures of women and children blown to pieces on the evening news, so be ready for it. We need the resolve to complete the mission in the face of this propaganda, no matter how dire it looks. We cannot allow jihadist crazies to use our own sense of decency against us.

Agreed.
We need to kill as many as it takes until the survivors permanently [no hunda here] forswear violence. How many is enough? N can be anywhere between 1 and 1.3 billion. They can stop any time they want. We daren't.
