I feel as if they're being disrespected and treated poorly, though - and if I feel that way, as an American sitting in America, I can only imagine that what they are feeling is much, much worse.

So what else did Denmark do to the Muslims when they rioted over a Danish newspaper publishing depiction of Muhammad?
There are Muslims that are easily offended, and happy to resort to violence to make a point. They don't need other good reasons to start a fire. They are labelled as religious fanatics because that's exactly what they are.
