What would happen if a Jewish, Christian, Hindu, ______(insert religion of choice) were to commit a crime in the name of their faith.
'Would it be treated the same way if a Muslim committed the exact same crime? Would very little emphasis be put on the perpetrators religion? Would it be stressed that the act is an aberration, a misrepresentation of the religion? Would the religion be mentioned at all?'
Or is it that the Muslims have tended to do more loony shit recently?

depends who/what you're talking about
the press would no doubt make an issue of it, opposing religions would, but I imagine most sane people would recognise that the person involved blamed fanclub x for their wanting to blow things up/brainwashing.
Every faith is interchangeable and none are blanket areas for blame.
In a decent, well researched world the media would stop referring to people as simply catholic, muslim, etc they would be "Blowy up squad 23" or "neighbour haters 86b" the religion thing is almost irrelevant as their bible is a bastardised/reinterpreted version of other peoples, with neon highlighter on the bits that matter to them.

watching without sound so I'm probably missing what they are doing
but other than the "how do they control movement other than up and down with the magnet on and off?", I would imagine a magnet that big would fuck up all their computers in the office. So CG, plus the shadows don't look right.
