Also, as I understand it, one of the hopeful developments in recent years is that there HAS emerged significant push-back in the Muslim world to the fundamentalist extremists. A related development is that there has been growing Muslim hostility to Al Queda, because they really don't like Al Queda killing so many innocent people, who numerically are almost exclusively Muslims.
I'm afraid US coverage has downplayed these developments; they aren't as dramatic.
