North American Muslims left in a quandary -- Tarek Fatah asks "what is to be done"?

What should be done?

To answer this question requires that we first agree that this is a battle of ideas and values before it becomes a war of weapons and terror. To fight the ideology of jihad and Islamism, we need to challenge it as a medieval construct and expose Islamism and its supporters as a threat to the separation of religion and state, which has been a corner stone of Western democracy and liberalism and for which countless people have toiled for nearly 400 years.

I am with As'ad on this. Too soon to start pontificating methinks. Meanwhile, this may be worth a read.
