National Reviews David French writes that ISIL jihadists psychologically dominate the battlefield, and they have more fighting spirit than their Iraqi opponents. But destroy ISILs propaganda, and the spirit of its fighters will be dulled. The U.S. cannot remain silent. During the Cold War, we used novels and Jazz, and anti-ISIL ideas must be packaged in equally compelling mediums. But the U.S.s method, using the State Department to talk Muslims down from the edge of radical Islam, makes about as much sense as Michelle Obamas campaign to get kids to like veggies. Its the wrong speaker for the job.
