Where are the moderate Muslim protests against Muslim extremism?

Hi. "moderate" muslims are muslims who do not know there religion too well. If one of these "moderate" muslims carefully examined and studying the whole of the Quran and the Hadith and learned about Mohammed's life, etc. They would be "extremist", not because "extremists" are "extremists" of a religion, per say, but because they are the only "true" muslims who understand what their Quran preaches. Moderate muslims don't know all that is taught about hate, etc. They need to carefully examine their books more closely, they can't even protest because what terrorists do is what the Quran commands muslims to do.
