Curiously there were enough ill-behaved Muslims in the Aughts (including the 9/11 attackers, though the attack itself wasn't driven by Islamist extremism) that yes, countering Islamic dogma did seem more dangerous at the time.
In fact, western Christian groups and their ministries were rather prideful at the time that they'd never commit terror (id est arson or rampage killings) like those fanatical Muslim Jihadis.
And to this day, when we point to white Christian nationalist violence, they assert well they're not real Christians.
