The answer is, these people are uneducated, wreckless and jobless with too much time to "burn".
I find it offensive that they should be referred to as "Islamic" extremists. Why should Islam or Muslims take the load because these people dont have a clue about the intellectual heritage of Islam and complete disregard for academic scholarship.
So ultimately, the solution is to support academic endeavours in these countries and more pertinently proper Islamic scholarship. Otherwise your questions are in vain.

Akhtar has pointed a valid issue. The responsibility lies in the hands of moderate, educated and peace loving people like you to spread the message of peace and tolerance to your brethren. A lot of young kids are taking up arms because the religious teachers instigate them with seeds of extremism. Don't let such people control their destinies.
