religion state war terrorists

Religion, state and violence and fighters.
There are many areas where such violence (can we call it war, religious war, for statehood, for religious freedom, for home land what? I am confused) in the name of religion is going on Palestine against isreal,, Taliban against afghanistan, Chechnya against Russia,, Shias & Sunnies against each other and Americans,, Al qaida against American values., etc. Common thing in all these is there is no formal war but secret war. These so called terrorists hide among lay people. I don’t think these lay people are innocent , they are ready to die for cause, nobody holds them, they are free to run and many run to refugee camps, my all people would have definitely run from war zone), media high lights great loss to common people. These people who remain behind as shield for fighters. They may die in the process.
This shield is made because American values do not think it legitimate to attack and kill these people. Americans will face moral dilemmas of war and fighters will benefit, and can inflict greater harm. This is new technique in war.
I was amazed to see great number of people moving in cars just after war in Iraque. I thought they are upto something, and later the suicide bombing etc thing started. I am still amazed at interview of Iraquees who say that Americans failed to give security to them, well Americans are there for having security for self, and not to give security to others. Its Iraquees who must provide security to themselves.
I am not against secret war, in fact we Indians (shivaji, rana pratap) are expert in this technique. My point is that present war fighting strategies, present war rules, present war norms are of no use here. If such war has to be won what should be new strategies? my thoughts:1) do not expose any of your soldiers to enemies except highly essential duties.
2) your soldiers will remain in fortresses (green zone) protected by may be surrounded by heavy mining and antipersonnel mines and advertise it loudly. 3) your soldiers must always be out of range with enemies( no house to house, street to street fight, or city fight) send in as many robots as possible. 4) high collateral damadge should be accepted legally(tell our superiors in advance). 5) only enemy targets should be declared and hit heavily at all structures in the target area from out of range.(forget strategie of selective hits its useless).6) hit hard and complete annihilation for short time (say fortnight or month) then get out and hide in your fortress, you may declare truce to deceive media. Then again you find some concentration of enemy , hit and annihilate, continue doing it till you dominate and enemy is weakened then only come out and hit rest of enemies.
