The basis for these ideas

I must admit that not all Muslims are for the Islamization as you call it. However, it is agreed upon by anyone that has any knowledge about the basis for the Muslim faith, that the Qur'an and Hadith preaches intolerance towards Christians and Jews in some places even requiring them to be oppressed or even killed for not submitting to the Islamic way.

If some Muslims do not bear this attitude, it is simply because (1) they do not know about these verses, or (2) They have made a decision to ignore the verses which preach such ideas. I think Islamism is simply the acceptance and implementation of the many verses that calls upon follows to war against the Kafurs. Anyone who has read the Quran or Hadith will attest to this. The fact that many believe that Jesus will return to earth and will rule according to Sharia law is also another attestation to this. And I happen to know of persons who do not outrightly support terrorism to believe this as well.
