All I can speak from is my own experience. Without exception, the muslims I've known personally have all felt very close to their faith and yet not one of them would dream of raising their hand in anger, much less condone the actions of terrorists.
Does that mean I'm blind to the muslim terrorists in the news who appear to fervently believe they are right to do what they do? Of course not. But the fact that there is such a vast difference between the muslims I have had personal contact with and the ones I see depicted in the news, and yet they also proclaim to be muslim, strongly suggests to me that it's something other than just Islam that leads some to violence.
