Contrasting the reactions of Jews and Muslims to their holy scriptures being burnt

When a Koran is burnt in America by a slightly Christian pastor, Islamists in Afghanistan go on the rampage and kill innocent UN officials. When the synagogue in Corfu is attacked and the Sefer Torah burned  barely a word is raised in protest let alone violent retribution attacks. The former instance engendered much coverage in the world's media, the hardly a whisper - has anyone seen anything on the BBC?

So does this show that Jews are more peaceable than some Muslims or are they just more cowed and used to anti-Semitic attack?
