Blowing up an airport will get you nowhere.
Blowing up a city killing all inhabitants as a rebuttal will show some results.

Ireland's another good example of a political conflict manifesting itself as a religious or ethnic one. You've got Protestant Republicans and Catholic Unionists, but even today most people assume it was Catholics vs. Protestants- because people were smart enough to realize it's easy to rile others up if you say the other side's attacking your religion or your race. Pakistani villagers and tribesmen won't join your cause as easily if you say you're really fighting against American foreign policy- but they'll jump on board if you say you're fighting for their families, for their faith, and for their identity. American foreign policy disagreements aren't nearly as threatening as someone telling you the other side's actually hunting your people down because of their faith and their culture.

The best thing you can do at that point is not play into their hands. To not only avoid an escalation of violence but also make sure that their claims don't become reality, you have to include even those the other side claims to be your inherent enemy.

Look at India 1947, for example. Pakistan- about half their Muslim population- split because a group of people decided to turn their political differences into religious/civilizational differences. Pakistan maintains that there's two separate nations in the region- based on religious identity- while India's official policy has always been a repudiation of that false division. If you refuse to play into your enemy's hands and instead remain a welcoming and united society, you can convince a large chunk of the "other side" to stick around with you. In India's case, they managed to keep half their Muslim population even as race and religious riots were going on- and they got the other side's leader's family to ditch him and instead accept the less divisive ideology.

Don't play into ISIS's hands and play off the American Muslim community as an Other that regularly cheers terror attacks. Instead, emphasize our shared American identity and trigger more situations like 2006- where, instead of joining the enemy, Americans remain Americans and help you catch the enemy when they come to them.

This is especially important in the case of ISIS. ISIS is more dangerous than al-Qaeda not because they're superior in terms of equipment or logistics but because their entire plan is to encourage lone wolf attacks. Lone wolves are ridiculously difficult to catch- no links, no obvious planning- and you need a really solid information network (the kind that's bigger than what the FBI and even the NSA can pull off) to warn you before shit happens.

Well Knyte, I don't think you should be so positive on how tolerant the US is. Thousands of Mexicans throughout the Southwest were murdered and robbed by soldiers, they weren't welcomed with open arms, were they? What about the colony in Okinawa, where thousands of women were raped, entire towns uprooted and sent to camps, 90% of the buildings in the island were destroyed, and it was turned into a "a vast field of mud, lead, decay and maggots"? And thousands, probably tens of thousands of German, French, Dutch and Belgian women were raped as well, not to count the rampant looting.

We've definitely faltered in the past. We screwed up with just about every minority group at least once, sometimes a lot more than that. But the thing is, we should learn from those mistakes- not just perpetuate them as they destroy us.

thanks shlomo. I agree that these filthy goyyim should shut up. They don't know the plight of the Jews, we really need to kill threats to the Jewish people. The Jews are our greatest ally.
