I'm not condoning the demonstrations, the violence, or even the ridiculous position that your God and/or Prophet is so touchy that some cartoonists in Denmark will offend Him/them.
What you're doing is allowing a few thousand fanatics (out of more than a billion Muslims!) to make you write off all of those people as "still living in the Dark Ages". You're doing just what Bin Laden and similar thugs want you to do, which is, implicitly, to support a holy war.
