DNM why do you have a pre-9/11 outlook

DNM,

So you want to arrest Jihadists. Why do you think treating an international military confrontation like a domestic criminal problem will succeed? It did not work before 9/11. What makes you think it would work now?

And how would it work? Considering that you are pointing your finger at all Muslims, do you plan on arresting over a billion people? How would that work? Sounds like a recipe for financial ruin.

Have you compared the likelihood of succeeding in arresting all Muslims, and the cost of imprisoning them to the likelihood of success and cost of supporting non-violent elections in Muslim countries?
