Its not that these people are muslims, its that they conduct this sort of violence in the name of their religion which they claim to be true Islam. It's being used to justify sacrifice and aggression which is being manipulated to increase power to the leadership group by destruction and fear ie; terror, hence why its called terrorism.
Unfortunately there is no arguing that the violent and diverse language does actually exist in the Quran, and so the only people who can confront this abuse of Islam is other muslims - lest it will fit right into the fearful language in the Quran of non-believers attacking Islam. The elephant in the room is that the Islamic nations seem to do very little in confronting these problems which seem to arise at all levels (convert up to Imam) and at all locations (seemingly globally) where Islamic communities exist. I know it has happened at small scales, but nothing consummate with the threat in my opinion.
There was some old buildings in Timbuktu that were destroyed by Muslim's as well earlier this year, even though they were to Islamic leaders from 500 years ago. Apparently a tomb can be no higher then 15cm above the ground or some such nonsense.
"It's a real loss for people in the town, in the region and on the continent. Timbuktu was a center of Islamic learning, a very significant center — there is lots of internal and external evidence of this. But Ansar Dine is ignorant of this. For them, there is only one book and it's the Quran. All this other (Islamic) learning is inconsequential to them." The Chairman of the Malian Manuscript Foundation Michael Covitt, said from New York that the action led to "generations and generations of culture being destroyed."
