I've been asked that question time and time again. I even answered it once 10 years ago or so and my solution is still the same. No one seems to like it, but war is ugly. The answer is;
Kill the clerics.
Infiltrate the Mosques and if the cleric is preaching hate and death, kill him. No trial, no 'due process', just dead right now. And you keep doing that for as long as it takes until the Muslim world starts to settle down.
In the long run there will be a LOT less loss of life on all sides. Currently we, and others, are pissing away national blood and treasure at an unsustainable rate. The Muslims, particularly in the near East, breed like fucking rats. The fertility rate in some of those nations is 5+. They are always going to have an ample supply of young men to throw into the shredder of war. We are busily killing the generals, colonels, majors, etc. and they are replaced just as quickly as their predecessor died.
Their entire claim to the justification of their actions comes from their belief in Islam and the Prophet. And while there are many Muslims the world over that disagree with the basis of their moral imperative, the only thing that counts in the end is their own iron clad belief in that moral imperative no matter how flawed.
And where does the moral justification come from? THE CLERICS! Without the moral rationalization of those clerics they can point to no moral justification for their actions. Further, as the radical clerics die they too will be replaced and if their replacement is another fire breathing jihadist, well, kill him too. Eventually the clerical ranks will be filled with the 'moderates' of the religion.
The solution is brutal to be certain, but NO innocent will die. We will not have to face wave after wave of radicals at the sacrifice of our young men and women. We will not have to continually trade liberty for security within our own borders. And if that peace is purchased with the lives of a few thousand clerics, who gives a shit?
In the end it is the most civilized, quickest, and least costly, in lives and gold, path to being able to live together in peace if not in harmony.
