The history of Islam has many examples of tolerance of other religions. For example, King Ferdinand told the Jews in Spain that they had three choices: convert, leave, or die. Many chose to leave, and ended up as welcomed and valued members of Muslim communities.

Also, as I recall, when the Crusaders first took Jerusalem, they slaughtered the Muslims and Jews alike. When Saladin retook the city, he spared the Christians.

Islam has a much richer history of religious tolerance than Christianity...
