I would take a look at why anyone would hate the United States government so much that they would be willing to kill themselves. I would look at the legitimate grievances of their supporters and try to address them. I would stop supporting dictators in the region like the Saudi Royal family and encourage the inhabitants to rise up and create their own democracies. I would withdraw military forces from the region and dismantle our many military bases which prop-up these repressive regimes. I would stop sending billions of tax-payer dollars to the Israeli government and support the robust peace movement already within Israel. I would use sophisticated diplomacy and police work to catch terrorists, not bombs and missiles. Lastly, I think we have an obligation to the civilians of Iraq and Afghanistan to pay reparations to them after we completely destroyed their countries.
