A row over inciting religious hatred has made Denmark the unlikely target of violent street protests across the Arab world. It's all because of a series of cartoons were published in a Danish newspaper - portraying the Prophet Mohammed as a terrorist.
With ANY depiction of the Prophet regarded as blasphemous in Islam, the cartoons have caused outrage in many Muslim countries.
