I think it's obvious that Islam and Muslims in general are not terrorists or extremists, although extremist islamism is a problem and this problem may be larger than problems with extremism in other religions.
But over-generalizing, painting all Muslims in general with the same broad brush, won't help matters. Such islamophobia is not much better than anti-Semitism (and its line of reasoning is similar).
It would help if the main stream in the religion condemned the terrorism. That seldom happens
