No, they're not extremists, they're just fools. They'll lose in the
end. But then again as with any other religion 85% just pay lip service.

Re "Islam is more tolerant than what is being practiced by some Muslim

Have you actually read the Koran? Take a look at this conference
footage from Sam Harris's site.
As Harris says:
"The organizers of this conference believe (with good reason) that
“extremist” views are not rare among Muslims, even in the West. And
they consider the media’s denial of this fact to be a symptom of…
Islamophobia. The serpent of obscurantism has finally begun to devour
its own tail. Apparently, it is a sign of racism to imagine that only
a tiny minority of Muslims could actually condone the subjugation of
women and the murder of apostates. How dare you call us “extremists”
when we represent so many? We are not extreme. This is Islam. They
have a point. And it is time for secular liberals and (truly) moderate
Muslims to stop denying it."
