This is good news. Got to both kill off the actual terrorists and also convince the rest that they are better off working with the West to resolve problems rather than join the terrorists.

I didn't get that from the poll. I'm assuming they view the west as unfavorable, too.

Goal should be to get the moderate muslim population to be more vocal about denouncing any form of terrorism and extremism.

Me, either. But look at Al-Qaeda favorable ratings from country to country. Highest was 21 percent. But most of them were in single digits.

Once they feel like they can do that without fear of reprisal, that will pretty much be the end of it, one would think.

I doubt that regular Joes from the Middle East have much of an opinion of us. It's the terrorists that claim to be Muslims that definitely have this view.

There are plenty of muslims in western countries with freedom of speech that can be vocal but aren't.

Yeah, I can't imagine it's easy to cave into the right wing nut jobs that want you to scream "bin Laden ****ing sucks" while you have a gun to your head.
