same as I view these riots against the cartoons to be a revelation of the same barbarity that is at the heart of Mohammedanism.
You're pretty clearly mistaken about this.
The cartoons were printed in Egyptian newspapers, front page, back in august. Nobody rioted then.
The riots are the work of rabble-rousers stirring up decent people. Islam is a religion with a considerably more prominent martial theme than Christianity, but it's present in Christianity too, and I don't think the difference is great enough to suggest "barbarity" at the heart of anything.
