Perhaps. But don't short change your knowledge. Not all Muslims believe jihad is limited to conquering in the name of allah. Not all muslims are under the spell of the wahaabist, salafist, Qutbist etc., versions of interpretation of the Quran and the Hadiths. But lets call it a draw. We can write volumes on the subject referencing various muslim and non muslim scholars and still get no where in essence.
Surely those Shia soldiers that fight every day side by side with US Soldiers and Marines, and have been known to call them brothers, and use terms like we love you, you are brothers for some reason do not take to strongly jihad in the one form so convienently used by the above mentioned sub sects/ really not sub sects at all but movements based on goons of the past, that fully adhere to the wild antics of those A Rabs of the dim past. I prefere to give allowance to those that hate the idea of killing humans because they do not follow allah the black rock.
But let there be no misinterpretation as to my feelings for those goons that prefer violance toward all non-muslims or muslims of different faiths. They should be wiped out for everyones benefit.

I think we're on the same page, or close to it

There are good and decent people who happen to be of Muslim background. In my opinion, though, Islam in its core values is not something that is compatible with the survival of the West
