I'd like to say a few things for the record, for that I won't get accused of defending or appeasing islamism:
Of course Islamism is a problem. And even among those Muslims who don't turn to violent organizations, there is an interpretation of Islam prevalent that's very hard to reconcile with Western values. Sharia is not compatible with Western values, no matter if it's a die-hard Salafist variant or a more lenient one. Unfortunately, way too many Muslims still cling to literalist ("fundamentalist") interpretations of Islam, according to which only Muslims go to heaven no matter what they do, and non-Muslims go to hell. God is a angry, punishing God who expects nothing but obedience, not a loving God. Mere belief is considered more important than actions. Because of that, many Muslims focus more on superficial symbols and rituals, than real spirituality.
Unlike in Christianity or Judaism, thoughts of humanism or enlightenment have not influenced theology on a broad scale (yet), most Muslim schools don't use historization to interpret Quran. Hence orthodox and fundamentalist interpretations of Islam divide the world into the umma of believers and the outside, taking unbelievers as friends is not allowed, jihad is obligation (although there are different interpretations if that really means using weapons and violence), there is no freedom of religion as apostasy deserves death. Orthodox and fundamentalist interpretations of Islam are not just a religion, but a religious-political ideology with totalitarian streaks.
There are a few attempts to open Muslim theology for modernization, as for example in the Ankara school, which introduced historical hermeneutics to interpret Quran.
That said, not all Muslims are brainwashed disciples of their religious teachers. There is a considerable diversity in Muslim countries. They are humans, after all, and religion does not necessarily play an important role in their lives. Many simply observe the rules due to societal pressure, fear and tradition. In many regions, there are strong regional traditions in contradiction with Quran, which still have survived up to today. And as Muslims are humans too, you find many people who don't take everything at face value what their imams tell them. Most are not actively violent. In some placed, they live peacefully side by side with members of other religions. In some places, the rules are stricter than in others. In some countries, you find strong nationalism or political ideology competing with religion, in other places archaic tribal affiliations. The degree of economic development and education varies very much too, from one Muslim country to the next.
So I am convinced, while Islam may be a problem, "the Muslims" are not. Some of them are, of course, and as far as I can see, they are dealt with accordingly. But no need to paint them all with the same broad brush.
I'll hope and pray that modern interpretations of Quran and understandings of Islam, which are well compatible with human rights and Western values, will gain more popularity among Muslims. As I see it, it's only a matter of time.
