The Counter-Jihad's blind spot for stealth jihad and taqiyya

Our old friend The Big W smoked out a common blind spot in the Counter-Jihad Mainstream, expressed by one of the luminaries of the Readership, one "Wellington":

Wellington says, “Ironically Muslims who are peaceful and good people are actually engaged in a distortion of Islam.” Not if they’re doin’ taqiyya. How dya know when they’re not doin’ taqiyya? Ya don’t. 

The Big W's typically trenchant point, put as usual with admirably blunt eloquence, leads us logically to wonder why it is that a robustly counter-jihad person like Wellington would bring up that elusive demographic, the Moderate Muslim (by another name), whose moderation is, on the macro level -- the only level that matters with regard to the survival of the West -- impossible to vet and verify.  This blind spot is also a mortal soft spot that tends to reinforce our dominant reflex and instinct, in America and throughout the West in general, to inhibit & suppress, rather than encourage, a rational prejudice against all Muslims -- the only thing that (one may reasonably suppose) will save the West in the long run, in the distant future.
