Obviously, moderates in other countries are not silenced by Egypt's (e.g.) government. Forgive me for making a point about Muslims generally.

But you are generally suggesting that moderates -- i.e., those opposed to targeting civilians, regardless of cause -- are devoid of power to speak out, even in the US or Britain -- right?

I don't think I said any such thing. I said that I'd like to live in a world where they speak out more, but attacking them for not doing so is not productive.
