Please dont put too much trust in what television and newspapers are feeding you. As i mentioned before, the media have no interest on showing the people that actually preach for peace. Violence is more interesting. If i just take swedish media as an example. Weve seen VERY little news about imams all over the world urging people to calm dawn. Different "experts" warn about travelling to countries like Egypt, Tunisia and Marocko, yet swedes living in, for instance Kairo, as we speak, experience nothing but hospitality and kindness from the Egyptians. There are extremists in every country. Sweden have new Nazis, yet they hardly represent entire Sweden. Neither does the extremists on the evening news represent all muslims. These groups are a small minority, and selldom very popular in their own countries either. Everyone should be as wise as the Bryce community here. Hours of discussion, yet no personal threats or harsh language. ;)
