2. Perhaps there'll be riots in Syria and
Pakistan over this egregious defamation of the holy prophet of peace and tolerance.

Nah, I don't think so either.

More likely there'll be anti-American and anti-British demonstrations: After all, the Iranians simply had no choice in the matter; rather like dropping a can of pinto beans on the foot of the woman in front of you in the checkout line--it falls, it impacts something when it stops, and you can't, you mustn't, blame the can of beans for a law of nature.

After all, the Iranians can always say Satan--the devil--made them do it.
