Islam has always been very tolerant - christians, jews and a lot of small religions were able to practice and prosper under islam. There were very few religious wars or suppressions, and all were highly localised. Still, if spend over a century constantly bombing and invading muslim-majority countries, undermining their society and destroying their democratic governments, I'd guess that would erode tolerance to some extent.

We never hear much then about the distress of the victims and their families on this realisation.

Pretty much sooner or later they'd have to fess up to their own true beliefs for fear of being punished by God, which by their refusal to want to displease the God of their faith, inadvertently incriminate themselves in the eyes of the locals and thus be imprisoned and sentenced to death yet again.
