It is easy to get carried away with the rhetoric that is prevalent in the media and so-called circles of higher learning today but I believe that instead of listening to the masses it is best to research out the facts when comparing the two religions, starting with their texts, the basis of both religions.
I have done this and cannot say that they both qualify as peaceful at their core.
Here is a good place to start (http://www.thereligionofpeace.com/pages/myths-of-islam.htm#quran) but it is best to read through both the Bible and the Quaran in short periods of time and then make your own conclusions.
This is also something to consider: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ry3NzkAOo3s but like i said read the texts for yourself and then make your own decisions.
Quran on line: http://clearquran.com/
Another thing to remember that today Christianity lives by peaceful guidelines (see Matthew Chapter 5-7 as to what the Christian's marching orders are...). It is the number one persecuted religion in the world today. http://www.pewforum.org/2014/01/14/religious-hostilities-reach-six-year-high/
This is a site to visit that offers direct links and copies of the compared texts in regards to claims of peace:
