I wasn't joking, Max. If you wanted specific and detailed political steps, I'm afraid I can't give you much because I'm not too keen on procedures. But what I think the leaders should do is issue an ultimatum saying essentially "knock it off or we'll destroy the centers of your culture," and follow through on that threat if necessary. History has shown that Arabs are cowed by force (and their culture hasn't fundamentally changed since the last several times that was proven true), and if we give them one good whack with a big enough stick, I would wager that conflict will diminish with a reduced net loss of life and property. No one's going to agree with me on this forum and this isn't really going to happen until Europe and the US suffer a few more big attacks from hardcore Muslims (probably not even then), but I felt like talking about the subject honestly for a moment and this is the only actual effective solution I could come up with..
