Wait a minute, _O_. I thought Islam forbade likenesses of the prophet, Period. What I've read on the subject is that it is done to avoid the appearance of idolatry, which is objectionable to Muslims.

Now, I admit that the bomb/turban thing is insult to injury if you are Islamic, but it's not the "main driver" of the offense, if what I read is correct.
