When can we expect "Muslim moderates" to start? Seems the Islamic kooks are already killing people worldwide and "peaceful" Muslims can't be found. Indonesia, Malaysia, Oman, Yemen, and Egypt are examples of countries where the radical Muslims are pretty well marginalized. They have their violent incidents, but its about as much an issue for them as it is when kooks in the US shoot up a McDonalds or a post office, ie, isolated and uncommon. As time passes I would expect the moderate Muslims to increasingly gain power at the expense of the radicals, especially if there is peace in a given region. The places where the radicals are strongest generally have a recent lengthy history of war (Afghanistan) or proximity to Israel and its never ending cycle of violence. Iran is sort of the outliar, but I think you'll find its international "terror" effort is directed at Israel and its supporters, not much more.
