I haven't been paying much attention to this item, but now I'd like to make
a point.

I think those of you who are panicking about "the reaction in the Muslim
world" are missing the point. Much of the Muslim world is in the THIRD World,
a region well known for revolutions, counter-revolutions, violent protests,
and a general state of anarchy, irrespective of the religion of the people
concerned. In contrast, most of the Muslims in the /developed/ world, along
with citizens professing other religions, has been calm (there was a rally
in London at which some Muslim protesters demanded the beheading of the
cartoonists, but they were almost universally condemned for this by the rest
of the British Muslim community).
