I'm not talking about small as in the percentage of people or the percentage of Muslims, or even the percentage of radical fundamentalist Muslims who are, or are likely to be suicide bombers. (Although all of those percentages are quite small)

I'm talking about how big of step it is from "wanting to "beat the hell" out of somebody to wanting to strap on a bomb and blowing them up"

Its a big step.

Of course some people have taken that step, and presumably more will in the future.

I'm not downplaying the concern. I just don't understand how your post relates to the issue we were talking about.
