bae, what would you consider a good way to deal with the terrorists now? I think we should start with the obvious persons who exhibit some signs of disliking the others around them, and who make trips to the middle east.
There has been talk about holding sites like Facebook and other internet sites more accountable in surveillance. I know this angers some people who don't want big brother watching.........but don't we have to think about the innocents who are being killed?
It's quite a dilemma, and not everyone is going to be happy.......but we definitely need to do more than we are doing now.

My sympathies with your FIL. It's never easy.
