The teachings of Islam promote freedom of religion. Take for example Jerusalem; the only time the Jew Christian and Muslim lived in peace was when the holy land was ruled over by the Muslims before the crusades.

yes
in islamic counries, u can live in a complete peace
Allah told Muhammed in the Qur'an to say to the person who don't believe in islam (u have ur religion and i have mine) that means muslims and non muslims can live in islaimic countries with complete safety
i am Muslim, i have soooooo many christian friends, my best freind is a christian, we treat each other as brothers, no problems becouse of difference in religions
everybody has complete freedom to believe in any religion he want
i hope u got ur point from my explanation
thank u

Definitely NOT!
In chapter 109 in the Koran, it stated:
"Say, O Disbelivers!"
"I worship not that which you worship,"
"Nor will you worship that which I worship,"
And I shall not be worshipping that which you are worshipping,"
"Nor will you worship that which I worship,"
"To you your religion, and to me mine."
It's clear here that Islam preaches tolerance. Islam allows its followers to live amongst followers of other religions.
In the second chapter of the Koran, there is a verse:
"There is no compulsion in religion."
It's clear here that Muslims cannot force others to accept their religion.
During Muhammad's time, Muhammad ruled Medina. There are Jews and Christians living in Medina. Did Muhammad or his followers force the Jews and Christians to accept Islam againts their will? No. There is proof that Muhammad even had business transactions with a Jew until the time of his death.
I'm a Muslim living in a Muslim country, populated mostly by Muslims, but there are Christians, Buddhists, etc... I go to school amongst them, and they are allowed to practice their religion freely. They carry out their crucufiction reenactments, Christimas is celebrated here, while realising that Islam is the dominant religion around here.

There is a part of the Quran or the Surah that pretty much asserts that eveyone is a Muslim, so the question is, how much to insist that others are "orthodox" or "extremeist" or whatever Muslims...

This is not true. The Quran says: 109:6 'To you be your religion, and to me my religion (Islam)'.
Peace

That is not freedom of religion.
And of course it's not ALL muslims.
