Why Muslims don't stop terrorists?

• Terrorists do not publicly identify themselves, even unknown in communities where they lived.  Terrorist cells work secretly and are difficult to identify. 
• In the United States, with large police forces, law enforcement technology, the "War on Drugs" has gone on for years without being won, without even reducing the volume of drug traffic and associated crime, partly because of the drug habits of large numbers of Americans.
• The fight against terrorism can be more successful than the "War on Drugs", but it is not just force that is required to stop terrorists, the wrong thinking and misunderstanding about Islam by some extremists also needs to be countered.
• The oppressive conditions in Muslim countries and actions that invite extremist reactions need to addressed.
• One of the targets of terrorists are moderate Muslims, because they oppose terrorists and condemn acts of terrorism.
• If Muslims became aware of plans for terrorist attacks, it would be their duty to stop such evil.  No true Muslim would allow innocents to be harmed.
• Muslims have the responsibility of educating other Muslims about the evil of terrorism, and about the false reasoning and misinformation used by leaders of the terrorists, so the ignorant and gullible do not get recruited.  This is like Christians educating other Christians so that they do not get involved in the KKK and other White Christian Supremacist groups who attack Jews and blacks.
• Muslims and non-Muslims have the responsibility of denouncing all acts of terrorism, whether perpetrated by terrorist groups or by uniformed military forces, and taking action against both types of terrorism, since one type of terrorism breeds the other type of terrorism.
• Non-Muslims have the responsibility of supporting moderate Muslims, and not demonizing Islam and the Muslims.  Wild misrepresentations and misinterpretations of Islam, jihad and war by Christian extremists serve only to strengthen the terrorists against moderate Muslims.
