Well in short, I think the Koran does provide a good bit of motivation and legitimization to kill.
But, near universal access to satellite TV's provide a kind of forecast into the future. And I'm suspecting identity loss is the forcast of the muslim way of life. To them, mass identity theft is on the way, for lack of a better way to put it. This is what I think is going a long way to catalyzing the impulse to kill.

You are right, so why do people obey the directives in books so zealously? I feel the violence resulting from over-zealous beliefs is/has been the root of much evil....it is not confined to Islam either.
