It's with people like Sheik Abdullah Bin Bayyah:

My favorite line: He said it is time worth spending because military action
alone — airstrikes and Tomahawk missiles — won't work. "The problem is that
even if you defeat these ideas militarily by killing the people, if you
don't defeat the ideas intellectually, then the ideas will re-emerge."

So true.

I also liked what he had to say about foreigners who travel to fight with
the terrorists:

At the U.N. on Wednesday, Obama said it was time for the Muslim world to
explicitly reject the violent ideologies that fuel terrorism, and I asked
bin Bayyah what he thought of people who left home to join forces with
ISIS. "I actually consider these people to be mentally imbalanced," he
said, "and I personally stand behind that statement. These people don't
have religious knowledge, so their understanding is shallow and they are
completely incorrect."
