Really?
Then why is Apostasy punishable by death in most muslim countries?

Those people are revolting against their governments, not their religion.
And if you read that article again you will see that quite a few of those murders (sorry,executions) were carried out by individuals, not governments, who didn't agree with their said governments decisions to not punish the apostates.
So your "religion of peace" is no such thing. For if it was the fundie nutjobs who commit actrocities under its banner would not be able to do so.
