I'm curious about Islam as a religion and political movement.
When various Islamic groups committ murder & mayhem why is there no official outcry against this extreme violence from the world of Islam?

This is a very good question.
However you should know that Islam is not a political movement. Islam separates itself from politics in the sense that it is not a political party, but a Muslim leader should practice Islam and a Muslim majority country should implement the Sharia Law.
All Muslims should fight oppression wherever they find it so your question is a good one in why the Islamic political and religious leaders do not condemn terrorism and oppression carried out in the 'false' name of Islam.

Assalamalecum,islam is a religion, its a way of life, well u can't expect political leaders to respond because Allah only knows how islam they are, but we normal people have condemned and criticised the massacare.islamic world is a world consisting of practising Muslims irrespective whether they are politicians or not.
