... "radical Islam is the problem, moderate Islam is the solution."

What are foundations for radical Islam and "moderate" one? Are they not all the same? The Quran, the Hadith, and Sharia. I suggest, maybe naïvely, using terms 'The Literal Islam' and 'A Filtered Out Islam' correspondingly instead. That might help understanding what 'moderate' means.
