Thinking you can reengineer the political culture of the Muslim world is just to be sucked into its internal ethnic civil wars (which is what those Shiite Iraqi soldiers are fighting) and played for a chump every time by the rival factions. None of whom are any 'ally' of yours.
Reagan realized that in Lebanon. The Israelis after a while realized that in Lebanon.
We can't 'win' the WOT without essentially, rewritting the Muslim faith. And that is not something we can do. We can after several generations of decimation impose a peace of exhaustion upon them. But they must themselves accept fear and despair as the condition of their lives.
Nice. You clearly don't know anyone from that region or you wouldn't say such a stupid thing. Like hell they should accept that. Why don't you come out and say it? Our troops and coalition troops are fighting dying for NOTHING, right?
