There are no moderate Muslims

The apologists for Islamic terrorism try to draw attention to the "millions of moderate Muslims". But you cannot be a moderate Muslim any more than you can be a moderate member of the Klu Klux Kan, or the Nazi party. You cannot be a moderate member of a group with a belief system that is intrinsically extreme and intolerant. There are no moderate Muslims - just "good" Muslims who believe in world domination by the use of terrorism as ordained by the Koran and bad Muslims who don't believe what's in the Koran.

Unfortunately the number of "good "Muslims is growing. Islam is now the single greatest threat to our way of life in the West. ultimately it will have to be militarily confronted in the same way that the Nazis were in WW2. What is happening now in Iraq and Afghanistan are mere skirmishes compared to what is about to follow. The third world war won't be between capitalists and communists it will be between the free West and Islam and the Muslims won't win.
