Fragony, some days you sound like you would really, truly prefer another world war to any sort of rapproachment or understanding between the Muslim world and everybody else. I would argue that co-opting is both less expensive and more efficient than death camps and genocide. Which are the natural extension of your position, if you are truly asserting that Islam is both incompatible with modernity and incapable of change and/or moderation.
Remember your Sun Tzu, O Dutch saber-rattler: "Supreme excellence consists in breaking the enemy's resistance without fighting."
