There is a major flaw in the public’s perception of Muslim danger. The meme seems to be that each and every Muslim must be a Jihadist before we can fight them. It is the disciplined well led minority that is the danger. The majority will simply stand by waiting to see which way to jump. See Lenin who conquered a nation of 100,000,000 with only 250,000 for an example, The French Revolution, the American Revolution all with active well led minorities.
Excellent point. Unfortunately, the leaders in the West (Putin excepted) seem to think that just because the number of radicals is "small", they pose little danger to society as a whole. Your example of Lenin is a good counter to that argument.
