Because of how certain media and circles of ignorant people spread false information. I'm taking a guess and assuming you just shot across the bow of Islam/Muslims?
If so, you are misinformed. If you care to learn the truth, I'd be happy to chat.
Those who are out there doing hanous things in the name of Islam, are extremists who are off the reservation. 99% of Muslims disagree with these idiots actions. There are roughly 1.6 billion Muslims in this world. There are bound to be those who use religion for their own agenda.
Regarding those founding fathers who wrote our history, there were some Muslims or at least some influence of the religion in there to(wasn't very known) if memory serves me right. But Christian/Jewish/Muslim religions are mostly the same anyways(which most people don't seem to know or want to acknowledge) so moot point.

And recent issues with the Church include bad things to little boys and there is still chaos in Ireland in the name of Christianity.
All religions have their nuts, its easy to point at someone else's and make generalized opinions. Don't forgot to look at your own first.
Regarding removal of items from these places. Who cares?
