CONDEMNED BY OUR OWN IGNORANCE: That is one reason why Islamists maintain the upper hand. Greetings From The French Hill:
You may have noticed that, every time the United States leaves a war unfinished, we end up having to deal with the same bad people whether they are the North Koreans, the Iranians, or, in the case of Iraq, the return in 2003 after the botched victory in 1991. The only purpose of war is to leave one's enemies utterly without the will to repeat their bad behavior. By contrast, we have excellent relations with Japan and Germany.
And both Japan and Germany were pretty extreme in their ideologies too.
