One picture is, indeed, worth a thousand words

Many readers of my entries on the Mohammed cartoon fiasco have made the mistake of thinking that I sympathize with the rioters' obscenely disproportionate response to the deliberate, intolerant and childish provocation the cartoons represented. Nothing could be further from the truth. Nor am I under any illusions about Islam's history or nature.

In fact, it seems to me that this picture from the demonstrations in Pakistan pretty much says all that needs to be said on the subject.
