My opinion has been that we should treat it like what it is... a criminal act. As with any policy on crime there needs to be a two headed approach.
1) Policing and prevention
2) Education
You can't solve any area that is plagued with crime without doing both of these things in concert.
Some would argue that that is exactly what is being done right now, I say that mobilizing the military (the world's largest) to chase down criminals merely legitimizes their cause and justifies their belief that the US (and it's allies) are imperialist powers.
It didn't help that the reason for going to Iraq has changed nearly as much as the wind.
