Islamic terrorism has been stopped once before in US history

Islamic terrorism has been stopped once before in US history.  In the Philippines in 1911, General John J. "Black Jack" Pershing was in command, and there had been numerous terrorist attacks by Islamic fundamentalists.

Black Jack ordered his men to capture the terrorists so that they could be taught a lesson. The captured terrorists were forced to dig their own graves, and were then tied to posts. The US soldiers slaughtered pigs in front of them, and rubbed their bullets in their blood and fat.  The terrorists were sufficiently terrified in their own right, they knew their bodies would be contaminated with the pig's blood.

This meant that they could not enter their Heaven, even if they died as terrorist martyrs. All but one was shot, their bodies dumped into the grave, and the remaining pig guts dumped atop the bodies.  The lone survivor was allowed to escape back to the terrorist camp and tell his brethren what happened to the others.  This brought a stop to terrorism in the Philippines for the next 50 years.
