There has to be some give and take when expecting the host country to offer you all the same privilidges it offers its natural citizens. All we seem to get presented with in return is an arrogance and sense of entitlement that it's their right to carry on as if they still lived in the Middle East. They take but they don't give back. From what I see such disprespect is pretty hateful in itself. This constant sticking two-fingers up at our beliefs and way of life, whilst at the same time enjoying all the benefits of it. Why are you so surprised at the result?
Most reasonable people would expect to assimilate into a country they choose to live and respect their way of life, and, if necessary, adjust certain behaviours at odds with that way of life. It isn't rocket science just commonsense and respect. Respect works both ways. Why do some constantly make exceptions for certain religions? Negative actions tend to get negative results.
In my opinion this man in courageous, honourable and respectful, and therefore worthy of respect, and I believe most would welcome this type of Muslim. It is not the West that are the unreasonable ones here.

You don't know much about our recent colonial/ missionary past do you?
