Yes, there is a problem, the problem is radical Islam.
Now either you kill 1.8b people, or you work to keep the balance between the number of extremists and the number of non-extremists in the way you want it. That's about the long and the short of it really. It doesn't mean we need to bend to their every whim, but it also doesn't mean that we need to treat them all as guilty until proven innocent.
The issue is not final solution , please don't jump to extreme here.
It is about the apologetic narrative people are fed up with as it seem.
Look at the Stockholm Syndrome thread and so on...maybe this is exactly the reason why many vote UKIP you fear so much.

When it comes to extremism you should realize that for religious or brought up in ME tradition un -Muslims often going to extremism is mentally easer than embracing western liberal values.
It is closer to home...so don't blame yourself.
Europe has added another problem to the list and is learning to to deal with it....
