If what you claim is true, then perhaps you can explain to us why he so often sucks up to Islam.

We’re waiting.

His Royal Highness wishes to be King for all his people - both in the United Kingdom, and throughout the Commonwealth (remember, as King, he will be Head of the Commonwealth). A large number of these people are Moslem.

I do not believe the Prince has any special interest in Islam as compared to other faiths - he's a member of the Church of England and he takes that faith more seriously than any other, though I don't believe he's particularly devout, but beyond that he simply seeks to treat all faiths with respect. Being respectful towards Judaism, or Hinduism, or Buddhism, is completely non-controversial and so his gestures in those directions don't get publicised. Being respectful towards Islam, however - well that creates some controversy and that sells newspapers and ad space on TV - so that gets stressed by the media when it happens.

The Prince has no time for terrorism in any of its forms - but I'd point out to you that his own Godfather was murdered by terrorists who hid behind Catholicism as the basis for their crimes. He makes a distinction between the actions of fanatics and those who merely seek to follow their own faith in peace.
