because they sit there in unified silence and never speak out against the atrocities of their extremists. Perhaps it is because they all share the same views. Perhaps they are all extremists, just in different degrees. They ask the world to understand their grievances, while their people kill innocents. Clean your house first, before you come to the world with your hand out, looking for sympathy. No, contacts and informants in the muslim world won't help. This is a muslim problem. The muslims are the only ones who can stop it. If they don't, it means they support it and we've seen all kinds of evidence that they do, whether they admit it openly or not. They glorify suicide murders! They have parades and memorials in honor of teens who blew themselves up to kill Israelis or Maronites or Americans or whoever the infidel do jour is. Not all muslims are bad, but enough are to really really matter. After 9/11 an extensive poll was taken throughout the muslim world (where allowed.) 15% openly supported OBL and said the US had it coming and they hope there's more. 69% said that, while regrettable, it's the US's own fault for supporting Israel, EVEN THOUGH at the time, Israel wasn't even mentioned by OBL, and most of these people have never met an Israeli in their lives. So 74% of the muslim world wants Israel gone and wouldn't be too sad if we were gone too. If the poll is representative, then out of 1.3 Billion muslims in the world, there are over 700 Million who want Israel gone and who wish us ill. Furthermore, A 2004 estimate by the intelligence unit of French police found that about 150 of the country's indexed 1,600 mosques and prayer halls were under the control of extremist elements.
A study of 1,160 recent French converts to Islam found that 23% identified themselves as Salafists — a sect sometimes associated with violent extremism.
In the Netherlands, the Dutch intelligence service says it believes as many as 20 different hard-line Islamic groups may be operating in the country.
In London, authorities say that as many as 3,000 veterans of al-Qaeda training camps over the years were born or based in Britain. Not all muslims are bad, but as far as I'm concerned, enough of them are.
Those of you misguided apologists have never bothered to read the Qu'ran to understand this. Nor have you even bothered to understand your enemy becuase you are too busy feeling guilty because you believe your great, great, great, great, great, great, great, great, granduncle the christian knight, Sir Harald killed great, great, great, great, great, great, great, great, granduncle Abdullah during a Crusade.
Islamo-Facists murder people because they are vile, damaged humans, not because of the ancient past, not because of Israel, but because Islam calls for it.

Thousands and Thousands is less than 1% of the over one billion Islamic people in the world. My guess is the vast majority have no interest in establishing a caliphifate or destroying the west and just want to take care of their families like everyone else in the world. The Caliphate was an "Arab" thing and never included Iran (Persia) India or Pakistan or Indonesia and was defeated by the Turks (also islamic). The Kurds are islamic and want no part of any Arab Caliphate. The idea that all these nonarabs want any part of an Arab Caliphate is dubious Islam is not a monlith as you are suggesting. And plenty of Islamic people did express outrage over 9/11 or otherwise express sympathy for the US.
This is not to say that "moderates" don't need to speak out more against terrorism.

They are all in the maelstrom of a different culture.
It is imposable to communicate intelligently with a Muslim. They view everyone as an infidel. Which instantly replaces logic.
It saddens me that the Israelites did not obey G-d when they had the instructions to eliminate Idolatry.

Yes, not only would it be nice, it would be a vitally important key toward actually ending terrorism. If there was an outcry among so called moderate Muslims, terrorism would no longer be a formidable problem. The silence of thses people makes them guilty, IMO.

That Islam is the cause like all religions for racism and separatism has not slowed them down over the years .I guess not wanting to die is so strong an emotion that to satisfy it with a lie is the only thing possible for so many .

Why no outrage when one group of Muslims bomb another Mosque?
Wow, you ask a great question and you get all this crap???? It is true, a fact, that the only way to stop extremists is by having moderates take up the battle to stop them.
