It's much harder to combat religious/nationalist blowback than a clearly defined nemesis. I wouldn't even know how the American government would even go about it (successfully)

Yes it is easier to combat a country, although I guess you could make the analogy that "spreading the gospel of Communism" is like spreading the seeds of terrorism. The containment part of this is interesting, especially if it could address why terrorism happens, i.e. poverty, dictators, belief there is US aggression, etc.
