If there was a Nation of Islam, it would probably be a lot easier to gain consensus and eradicate common enemies. But, there are 50 primarily Muslim countries throughout the world and their peoples and leaders don't all share common views/priorities/religious interpretations.
In the Middle East, some Shia Muslims see all Sunni Muslims as 'radicals' and vice versa. It's subjective.
But, I agree with you that if the ME Muslim countries (despite some long-standing animosities and conflicting agendas) came together to thwart clear-cut Islamic radicals like Daesh, it would improve the perception of them in the eyes of the world.
