What brilliant, world-renowned foreign policy expert advocated that complex and nuanced approach to dealing with the delicate issue of Islamist terrorism?
Hard to believe there are people out there who consider this a jim-dandy idea. Sure, enter a Muslim country uninvited (aka "invade"), blow a lot of shit up (including innocent civilians) and to top it all off, disrespect their religion by launching a massive religious conversion campaign. In other words, do exactly what OBL and al qaeda accuse us of doing in their recruitment propaganda.
What could possibly go wrong? I mean, other than 1.5 billion people suddenly being convinced that the west really is out to destroy their religion.
