I think that any sympathy that the Muslim faith was receiving is evaporating quickly and the rioters are certainly making a statement that Islam is a reactionary and violent religion run by closed minded self righteous violent men.
We know that all Muslims are not this way, but this episode is giving an even darker black eye to a religion that has already taken too many blows already.
Personally if I was uneducated these riots would scare the hell out of me and afirm the negative stereotypes of that religion.
