My opinion on the protests in the Muslim World.

Asalaamu alaykum jamii'an.
The copycat protests that are spreading like a virus throughout the middle east and its neighbouring nations, seem to be on every international news media outlets. These protests are carried out because of an anti-islamic film produced inthe United States. I recognise the purpose of the film to be very degenerative on it's portraying of the prophet (SAW), and it also had another objective , to intentionally anger and provoke muslims all over the world, the clip itself in it's essence was provocative. And so the response of the muslims , gave the creators and even the U.S government , the exact and perfect reaction they were looking for, that is for muslims to portray this animal-like behaviour that has no justification at all. You have to always ask questions and look for answers, if this was Iran and they supposedly torched the U.S embassy , killed the ambassador and aswell as the staff, you would see a full-scale war between the U.S and Iran . However, the U.S's response was very strange.
You must first realise that the former Libyan regime was an anti-western one, and the current regime in Libya is one that is dependant , nurtured and supported by the west. And at the hands of this very regime was the U.S ambassador aswell as the staff were murdered, the reason of the strange approach the U.S took might be because they wanted this chaos, thus resulting in military presence in Libya (U.S Warships heading to Libya).
One reason why i'm sharing this opinion of mine is probably because this anti-islamic film was uploaded on youtube in july, but then the protests happen with the commencement of the 11 year anniversary of 9/11?
There is no justifying this widespread chaos in the middle east simply because the prophet himself would'nt call for chaos and anger. A jewish lady would call her donkey Muhammad because her intention was to provoke the muslims of that time, the prophet (SAW) did not pay attention to her attempts and it was in his character that he would ask Allah to have mercy on her and to forgive her , and in result without no clue of the deen nor dawah she became a muslim . Aren't we to follow his example or should we kill innocent un-armed people for the sin of another man?
In conclusion i know that the sensible and appropriate response is to simply ignore these attempts as their goal is to make you angry, they are not harming Abul Qasim , they are not degenerating him infact they are drawing themselves nearer to the fire whose fuel is men and stones. I tell myself what is in the clip is not Muhammad (SAW) because i'm a muslim and i know who he is.
May Allah's peace & blessings be upon Muhammad (SAW) and on his family and on his companions and all of those who lived in his time.
Wa billahi tawfiq.
