Neither of these approaches take grasp of the factors driving the region. Overpopulation and Saudi Arabia are two of those.

There is a business theory about "influentials"- that finding a 10% section of the population that influence the other 90% disproportionately will be an effective way to influence the entire population of consumers. That same theory is applicable here, but perhaps not to people.

What are those 10% factors in the region, and are they being addressed?
Influence would appear to be what the terrorists tactics are all about.
Their strategy is long-term.

They cannot reverse the battlefield decision.
Their actions are directed at influencing the political will of the American voter.

"Useful idiots" in this country further the terrorist agenda in the hopes that they may be perceived as wise philospher kings, above the fray; as if they're breaking up a fight between misbehaving children.
Meanwhile, the infiltrations and alterations of society continue.

The terrorists' agenda may take decades or much longer to achieve.
They are fine with this timeline.

The useful idiots care not what happens to posterity.
They just might get to enjoy "peace for our time".
