Treating them as their own "special" category of evil people only strengthens their cause. If they are just another convict up for murder in max lockup in either a civilian prison or Leavenworth, all their "magic" is gone, compared to being stashed in a special offshore prison, called a "terrorist", and not given a trial.
Who will get more recruits. Someone on Lockup showing their gang signs, or someone stashed in a special prison because they are "terrorists". Lets be real here. The murderers locked in max in most places are just as dangerous as "terrorists" if not more, so why give them special treatment? In fact, let the general prison population decide their rank in their society.
As for the death penalty, I used to be for it, but it brings we who live in the USA down to their level. We need to take a page from Europe and Israel, lock them up for life. Killing them only makes them martyrs.
