See now heres your problem...You are generalizing all muslims (i.e. they are all self-centred bullies). Muslims DO care about other cultures and other religions. We are told to be peaceful and kind to all other religions. We CANNOT force others into our religions. That is forbidden. If you ever hear or see a muslim man say something like "all christian/jews/[whatever religion] are [insert bad word here]", then I assure you that person iS NOT muslim. Yes unfortunately there are those muslims who exceed their bounds and inspite of their lack in scholary studies, they insult other religions. But okay lets look at the latter side.

I know Americans like the whole freedom of speech and freedom of [insert whatever here] but a line must be drawn somewhere. No matter how "free" america may be, it does not justify insulting other religions.
