Why Did It Take So Long for Islam to Get
So Stirred Up?

The Jyllands-Posten Muhammad cartoons controversy began after complaints were made about twelve editorial cartoons which depict the Islamic prophet Muhammad among other things, with a bomb on his head and greeting suicide bombers arriving in heaven.
The cartoons were printed in the Danish daily newspaper Jyllands-Posten on September 30, 2005.
Some of the cartoons have been reprinted in newspapers in Europe,
the United States, New Zealand, Jordan, France, and Italy.
What made Syria and Iran wait so long to suddenly seek to inflame the Muslim world with great religious fever
and self-righteous indignation over this great sin of defaming their Prophet Muhammad? The riots suddenly broke out more than four months after the cartoons were first published
? Considering the huge size of the Muslim population that has immigrated into Europe, did it really take them more than four months to start raising Cain about it
? Could it be that the Iranian President’s recent radical statements had put Iran in an undesirable limeligh
t? Could it be that the Syrian President’s involvement in the assassination of former Lebanese leader Harari had put tremendous international pressure on Syria
? Could it be that it was for both reasons involving Syria and Iran that the riots were started? Could it be they recently began to search old news releases looking for something they could use to cause riots that would draw attention away from both countries? And could it be they found the September press release in the Danish files, and decided to use it? And could it be that the holy day of Ashura, an annual remembrance celebrating the death of their saint Hussein, the Prophet’s Grandson, was coming up, and clerics decided to start initiating riots in conjunction with that religious event, in order to get the maximum number of Muslim hearts aflame?
Is their real purpose to take the eyes of the world off of Iran’s nuclear mess and Syria’s assassination deed
s? Countless numbers of facial portraits of how artists pictured Muhammad have been painted since the dark ages. So why is there such a sudden Islamic outcry worldwide, and with such furiousness, after all these ages
?
The religious cleric leaders of Islam are not without cunning wisdom in their dealings with the international children of the world.
There is a wisdom of the world in which they have great expertise.
Luke 16:8b – For the children of this world are in their generation wiser than the children
of light.
John 14:30 – Hereafter I will not talk much with you: for the prince of this world cometh, and hath nothing in me.
John 18:36 – Jesus answered, My kingdom is not of this world: if my kingdom were of this world, then would my servants fight, that I should not be delivered to the Jews: but now is my kingdom not from hence.
