Thats what I am wondering......because it all seems a little odd to me how they are willing to get up in arms about cartoons but not at atrocities done in the name of their religion.....or am I wrong/missing something here?

However, if representations of Mohammed are expressly forbidden within Islam, then I can understand where the height of feeling is coming from (again, this doesn't necessarily mean that I agree with it).

fair enough but surely a greater insult was done to their religion by the numerous atrocities around the world.....why haven't they marched like this about those?
