That is my experience over many dozens of mosques in both the US and the Muslim world.
If you think that the number of Islamic religious figures who do not advocate violence is small, then you are simply, utterly, factually wrong.

lmost one in 10 British Muslims would not inform police if they suspected that someone of the same faith was involved in a terror attack, a poll suggested.
The ICM poll for the News of the World found 9% of the 502 questioned would not tell police if they had such suspicions about a fellow Muslim.
With a Muslim population aged over 16 in Britain of around one million, that would translate to 90,000 “turning a blind eye”, the newspaper said.

Thats 9% IN Britain. These are people who for whatever reason decided to leave their native lands to come live in Western Europe. Just what do you think that % will be in Saudi Arabia, or Iran? You know Saudi Arabia where rich men pay the families of suicide bombers.
I would think if peace was being preached, there would be more of an effort to show it to us, and yet all we see are demonstrations of 1000's and 1000's proving a dead emperor correct.
