if we continue to apologize, appease, and compensate them for their own horrible actions, and failure to maintain the peace. then we are acting as their servants
the concept of rebuilding after, worked after WW2. but in those cases, Germany and Japan, have been happy to gain importance in the world via hard work and trade. those countries that harbor Terrorists, allow/encourage recruiting, and provide resources, have no interest in working to gain world status. They aren't interested in sharing the world with those of a different belief. and their is no compromise. this will go on, and on, and on.
the history of whats happening now goes back thousands of years, and is likely to continue for thousands more. until they dominate, and control, their will be no end.
repaying them for the damage we do to them in our own defense, is foolish.
