You're right, some Muslims actually know how bad Hamas are, and still support them. For them, it's about Jew hate, but also about the idea of Islamic supremacism and colonialism and / or the jihadist goal of spreading Islam by the sword, especially for the hardcore zealots.

As Muslims we have three major issues:
1) The belief that everyone is out to get us (under siege mentality)
2) Widespread belief in conspiracy theories and untruthful claims (confirmation bias)
3) Being too ready to accept violence as a solution (retribution over resolution)

Islamism is a cultural threat in that it seeks to rip apart the social fabric of our nations, it is a political threat in that it causes political instability, and ultimately it is a militaristic threat given that Islamism is an expressly militaristic ideology.

They tend to be scared of the extremists. Also they think bringing attention to the extremists will either make Islam look bad or increase 'islamophobia', so they don't talk about it publicly. But behind closed doors, they discuss how horrible the extremists are. It's misguided.
