I criticize them, I think in both scenarios they are wrong but I am not going to criticize their whole religion or country as naturally violent because of it. If Islam is liberalized than it will be no more violent or peaceful than Christianity just like if your country gets rid of slavery, it will be no more ethically different from our perspective.

Anyways, the Muslims that are violent are a minority in the religion and for the regions that violence is widespread, it is most likely religion.
