I would find a similar depiction of Christ offensive. Sure some aspects of the protest are extreme in their nature, some are legitimate. It's not directed at an individual, it's directed at a whole religion. Couple this with something the religion forbids and it's even more offensive. The criticism directed at the newspaper by me is not about following the rules of Islam, it's about having some sense when dealing with a sensitive issue. To put it in forum terms: they've just flamebaited a whole religion.
