Why does Islam seem strange and threatening to some people in predominantly christian countries?

The answer to this question cannot be answered analytically.
In my opinion though, I believe that events of recent history (9/11 and other terrorist attacks) have impressed upon non-muslims that Islam is a violent religion. Because most cultures do not view violence as an acceptable action, the religion of Islam is viewed as being immoral/amoral.
I also feel that because militant Muslim groups have openly expressed a hatred towards people who hold Judeo-Christian values (e.g. Some Muslims believe that it is a high honor to take the life of a christian) that Judeo-Christian cultures have a very low opinion of Muslims as a whole.
For me personally, I believe that because militant Islamic groups act in a way that is not in harmony with their own written belief system (Koran), it shows that they are not guided by any moral standard other than their own selfish desires.
