Yet where mocking Christains is seen as edgy, and cool, mocking Muslims is edgy, and intolerant.

If people want to mock Christians and see that as "edgy and cool" but find doing the same intolerant for Muslims, then they have their heads up their asses for being hypocrites...this of course being the double standard you were mentioning. I agreed with you on that from the very start.
Yes, the BBC does treat Muslims with sensitivity. I did mention places like Palestine also suffer the double standard of both US and English media alike. The BBC downplays the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and openly shows support for Israel while the support behind Palestine is barely ever even broadcast. The way they broadcast the issue isn't anti-Islamic and done with sensitivity to Muslims. However, it is still insensitive to not openly support both the Palestinians and the Israelis. Not supporting both openly while trying to be an objective news organization also makes them [the BBC] just as guilty when it comes to the double standard.
