Let's consider how much of this problem is us (the West) and how much is them (Muslim nations). 

In the West , we idolize individuals like Edward Snowden and Julian Assange and the hacker collective Anonymous. Would that the energies and efforts of these individuals and groups was directed to tearing down the electronic infrastructure of Al Qaeda and ISIS. Alas.

In the Muslim nations, the leaders are either ensconced military dictators, theocratic puppets, or royalty. None of them care a great deal about anything other than themselves, never mind the terrorist acts of deluded young men. 

It should be clear to everyone that a solution that relies on the current leaders of Muslim nations (where, after all, the terrorism is rooted) is wishful thinking in the extreme. 

Groups like Al Qaeda, Boko Haram, the Taliban, and ISIS must be crushed mercilessly. And the Muslim world must take a leading role in doing it instead of washing their hands and pleading that they're not responsible.
