Yes, and the 98% who are fanatics ruin it for the 2% who are just trying to live their lives in peace. According to the UK poll, the numbers are more like 20%-40% fanatics and 60% who are just trying to live their lives in peace, and the number of fanatics is probably lower in the US. Are their clusters of fanatics out there? Absolutely. There are also plenty of innocent people. You don't hear about them because they don't make the news. It's the same reason why you read about white-on-black hate crimes in the news but rarely hear about all the white people who treat black people fairly and well.
