Who is to say that was The Prophet?  "Mohammed" is, by far, the most
common first name in the world, so perhaps the cartoon was just a
stereotypical Muslem -- if they respect the Prophet so much, why would
they take his holy name upon their less-than-holy selves? :P

And who can say those were representations of the Prophet, when there
are no pictures OF the Prophet to know what he looked like?

Sounds like yet another after-the-fact justification for the typical
kneejerk violence of Islam!
