I think a reason for anti-muslim sentiment is the lack of outrage in the muslim community, among those who claim to be peaceful. You'll notice when a right wing extreme Christian does something wrong, Christians immediately damn the action (with the exception of other extremists, of course). I think people don't see that from the islamic community as much. For example, people in this country openly supporting hezbollah. Its just difficult for Americans to digest seeing muslims outraged over a cartoon, but silent on the violence in the name of their faith.
