"Just the way the Nazis and communists used their ideology as an excuse to murder and subjugate people, the terrorists are trying to justify their subhuman actions with Islam."
You might want to rethink this analogy. Are we to assume that Nazism and communism would be perfectly acceptable to you, absent murder and subjugation?

Are you proposing that we raid all communes and force them to live an individual life style?

What do you think socialism is? "Communism with a human face."
And don't forget, German National Socialism was a Left movement that walked a nationalist walk, to get all-important support from former Army officers. The animosity between Nazis and Communists was an ideological purity contest, the political equivalent of a brother fight. That's why it was so nasty: they were competitors, not enemies.
