You have fallen into the error that islam wants you to fall. You say, 'Many muslims are decent people who try to feed their families and make a living'. Like that is the supreme test of 'goodness'. Everyone, be they good or evil, is trying to feed their families. So what?
islam is a threat even though they are not killing everybody. Their doctrine is a threat. They as a people are a threat because they adhere to their doctrine. People, like you, are willing to accept them as long as they are not killing everybody. And when you accept them, they grow in numbers till the right time to spring their killing ways and doctrine again.
islam is an enemy to every country where it exists. It's intention is to take over that country and place it under Sharia Law. And every muslim is a particapent in that effort.

No, I have not fallen into anything. I personally know several Muslims, just as I know several Hindus and others. Most of these folks are just trying to earn a decent living and provide for their children just like the rest of us. I even have religious oriented discussions with a Muslim fellow that I bump into occasionally. It is all done without any animus on either of our parts. We may disagree on theology, but we can also share a laugh as well.
Actually, there are threats from false Christians also. There are many with a theological bent in Christianity also that would put their own version of law in place that would probably resemble Sharia in many ways. You see hints of it when a Christian group will break fellowship over which translated version of the scripture is the correct one. There have been church splits over stuff as stupid as whether Adam had a belly button or not. True story.
There are many Muslims folks who want nothing to do with having to live under harsh Sharia law. You do know that there are many strains of Islamic thought, just like there are many strains of Christian thought, right? Or are you that myopic to not see that? How about that one group will not accept another group that claims lineage from the youngest daughter of Mohammed, Fatima. And the hatred is the other direction also. Sunni and Shia have been at each other's throats ever since. Muslims groups of different stripes fight each other with as much zeal, each claiming to have the authorized and true Islamic teaching.
And this nonsense that pours out our direction isn't so much about Islam in particular as it is about militaristic, dictatorial government conquest. It wasn't about Islam that Yasser Arafat ordered many of his own people hung by butcher's hooks thru the jaw until they were dead over Islam. it was over disagreements over temporal, earthly power.
