It is something that can't be avoided: Prophets are always misunderstood. Name it Jesus, name it Mahoma, or even Pelé. Messages of peace, righteousness and ethics are always misinterpreted and turned into moralistic girdles used to enslave people's minds and life. I'm not very sure those gentlemen would be very glad to see the way women were, or are treated because of the laws put in their mouths by their biographers. They wouldn't be very happy either if they saw how their messages of peace are turned into missiles or stones, thrown into those (mostly innocent) who happen to be out of the likes of the prophet's admirers.
I don't think it is wise to insult the religious beliefs (irrational as they can be) of any community; but it is also unwise to stand up with rage against a stupid joke: Ignore it, that is the best that can be done.
Draw a prophet, burn a flag, what's next? These deeds speak for themselves... Machiavelo and the cavemen joined together in marriage of dreadful fear!
Love thy neighbour... even at distance!
