I think it's too late for that. Moderate Muslims open to reform that can accept that (Sweden at least) is a secular country need to work with authorities to stop Imams from spreading extremism and encourage people to fight integration into the host society and equality and independence for women. We have recently allowed the construction of the largest Mosques in scandinavia in an area of Sweden that is already fighting the results of poor integration. It is bankrolled by Qatar and will have a salafist agenda from what I understand. I'm not sure that is a very good idea, but I guess time will tell.
