It's interesting to me that whomever wrote this never even alluded to extremism.

Sure, he did.
"Don?t allow them to hypocritically introduce their own recruited terrorists as representatives of Islam."
Majority of Muslims are against extremism. From within or outside. Charlie Hebdo and the events leading up to and especially after are obviously manufactured to pursue an ideology.
Current world events are like a bad B movie with poor writers, inept actors and a blind seething oppressive rage being directed at the world's youth...and not by Islam.
The writer is expressing the idea that people think for themselves and do their own research. I do not see the harm in that.
