I think most level headed people know that this isn't a representation of all followers of Islam. But until the people that lead and prescribe to that religion start actively policing their own, their religion has been hijacked by lunatics and will be able to recruit other followers.
Not to say that its never going to happen, but its never going to happen.

First of all there is too much fear and intimidation in the Islamic Global Community.

Second of all, there's not a consensus in those communities, I figure that they're pretty split.

Until each little sub group home grows their own Martin Luther, its not going to happen.
