9/11 Commission Chairs: To Defeat Terrorists, We Must Defeat Their Ideas
Writing in USA Today [https://www.usatoday.com/story/opinion/2017/09/08/9-11-defeat-terrorists-ideas-thomas-kean-lee-hamilton-column/637103001/], Thomas Kean and Lee Hamilton, co-chairs of the Bipartisan Policy Center's National Security Program, assess [https://bipartisanpolicy.org/library/counterterrorism-policy-from-911-to-isis/] U.S. counterterrorism policy:
As we commemorate the anniversary of the worst terror attack on U.S. soil, policymakers should pause to reflect on what it would actually mean to defeat Islamist terrorism, and what a comprehensive strategy to achieve that goal would look like.

As long as jihad maintains its overpowering appeal, even in the face of almost certain death, then terrorist movements will persist. ISIS will live on, even as its caliphate lies crushed amid the rubble of Mosul, Iraq, and Raqqa, Syria. Al-Qaeda will reorganize and rebuild. New groups and new generations of terrorists will continue to emerge.
