Maybe if Islam was little known then the actions of an extreme minority would define the religion itself, but I have a feeling that a religion that accounts for nearly 1 in every 5 people on this planet will not get defined by the actions of a few in the last two decades. 

I'd say it's too late. It seems as if, right or wrong, that most people equate Muslims with terrorism. The fact that Muslims have to fight against the idea that they're all terrorists and/or terrorist sympathizers would suggest that they are a religion that has been defined by the actions of a few.
