I am sick of this strawman argument. No one is advocating hading out dassies to violent fundamentalist organizations. Every sane person will tell you that we have to deal with them by aresting them or shooting them because they won't turn back.
The idea behind the "understand them" argument is to actually SOLVE the problem of terrorism at its roots. To stop fundamentalism from spawning and/or getting out of control. BOTH actions have to be undertaken. Otherwise we will be stuck in an endless loop of police action.

Simple? Extreamists can arise from any religious or political groups. How do propose to control people in such a way? How do you separate the inocent fundamentalists from the one's who will become extreamists? Simple to say.
