Top Ten Areas Where Moslems Actively Persecute Non Moslems-- Anywhere where they have numerical concentration and power to do it. Islam is humble and quiet as long as there is no alternative and it will get its ass kicked for screwing with people. When it is in a position to flex its muscles, it will kill any nonbelievers. Take it to the bank.
Indeed. I am no expert, but the problem, among others, is theological. I have been told (and results bear this out) that Muslims, unlike Christians, regard no difference in function between the church and the state. Christians understand them both to be institutions created by God, accountable to Him, but with different functions. Muslims do not understand that, so as soon as they gain power in a government they use it to destroy all others of different faiths.
In addition, Muslims obviously do not recognize that an unbeliever can be "converted" through a fundamental change of heart and soul. "Conversion" in the Muslim religion comes by forced adherence to Muslim rules, or by death if that proves impossible.
