> I can't get them to condemn terrorist behaviour.

Wait what? You really need to hang out with different Muslims.

>When it comes to the obvious religious extermination policies that exist in places like Pakistan or Bangladesh, or all over the middle east, again, it does not seem to be possible, in my experience, to hear condemnations of that behaviour.

I am from Pakistan. Americans experience major bombings by terrorist groups once or twice a DECADE. We experience bombings year round. Do you honestly think we wouldn't condemn such behaviour? I don't know what twisted ideologies your local Muslims have, but we as an entire nation of muslims condemn terrorist behaviour. Not just the bombings in our own state, but anywhere in the world! Our religion has strict rules against this even in a state of war! And thanks to "muslims" like these, we have people saying "It would benefit society if people just disavow inhumane practices preached in their relegious text" !! And that is quite absurd as our religious texts actually preach soldiers in war not to hurt civilians or even civilian buildings!
