I do not, however, think that all, most, or even a high percentage of Muslims are truly bad people. It's a small minority that plot our destruction. The challenge is to get rid of them and the environment that creates them, not to get rid of all people on that side of the planet.

"Genocide" is a loaded, shock-value kind word, and it's obvious that you're aware of this, and are using it intentionally for that reason.
He never said, or implied "all Muslims". Does he think it is a good idea to exterminate ALL Muslims?... I seriously doubt it. Does he think it is a good idea to make every effort to exterminate all Muslim TERRORISTS and the radical, fanatical clerics who are calling them to action?.... I'd think yes.
And I agree with him.
You are correct that it is a very small minority that is causing the problems, and as is usually the case, it is giving the larger group a bad name.
What I DO have a gripe with concerning ALL Muslims is the noticeable lack of outrage from the "average" Muslims when these atrocities are committed by fanatics. These radicals are doing these terrible things "in the name if Islam", yet the criticism of those acts from the mainstream Muslims is scripted, muted, and half-hearted, at best. Where is the indignation? Where is the anger? Where are the "anti-extremist" protesters? Why are they not making their outrage known, PUBLICLY and LOUDLY, when terrorist commit horrible atrocities that tarnish the image and reputation of Muslims everywhere?....
