Would you expect Jews to not protest an airline that decided to not
serve a kosher option?

There was a call for Jews to boycott certain department stores that
decided to use secular terms at the holidays instead of saying "Merry
Christmas" and "Happy Hanukkah".

Christians have protested the movie industry for things like Harry
Potter or the suggestion that being gay isn't evil.

A bishop in texas instituted a boycott of Pepsi products for using
Madonna's "Like a Prayer" in adverts.

All examples of religions imposing their own strictures on others.
Personally, I think they're all silly but you can't single out muslims
as being different on this.
