Keith, I think you don't have any idea whatever what mainstream Islam is. I think you have a concept of it that is based on your own prejudices but it does not in any way match up with reality. For instance, if abortion is against the law in a country with a Muslim government, it isn't necessarily true that violators of that law will be met with any more violence than violators of laws in the US, for instance. You are just making stuff up as you go along to try to promote your own prejudices about Muslims. You really have no idea what you are talking about. You are shooting from the hip.

The abortion murders weren't carried out by a government. They are examples of acts of terrorism carried out by Christians. They are hardly the only examples in the world of acts of terrorism being carried out by Christians and other non-Muslims. They are a small fraction of it. And if we are going to talk about repressive regimes, we need to talk about all repressive regimes around the world and compare the abuses committed by all of them. You only acknowledge acts of terrorism and abusive regimes when they are committed by Muslims, and you completely gloss over the many that are committed by people who are not Muslims. You've got one of those score cards that only has a place to put negative marks for the groups you hate, and only a place to put positive marks for everyone else.
