Unfortunately attempts at crushing radical opposition - whatever form it is - with force has failed time and time again! Dr Pipes has correctly stated that the bold tactics will be tried again, which leads to the theory that maybe dialogue is the only way possible to overcome radicalism in all its forms.. Definately worth a try if the best you've got in force has not succeeded ???
