Well like I said, I live in 'Merica, where we have a relatively high number of Jews, but not a whole lot of Muslims, so we don't really get to see much in the way of tension between the two groups, even assuming there is any on our side of the pond. It's mostly the occasional European news feed and rumors that we have to go on. It's why I'm cautious to come down too much on either side of the argument about supposed issues with middle-eastern immigration to Europe. Still, when there are riots over a cartoon it doesn't exactly say that all the problems are in the "other side's" heads.
