Islamic contradiction

Although this site was originally intended for Christian scriptural discussion, I thought I would weigh in on the recent Islamic outrage over the cartoon depiction of their prophet, Mohamed. I believe the two issues are 1. The cartoons portray Mohamed and Islam in a negative light. 2. You are not to have any picture of the prophet, Mohamed. I can understand being angry when poked fun at, but I cannot understand the second one. I believe not making a graven image commandment is restricted only to God. Also, blaspheming, a crime punishable by death is also restricted to God as well. By taking offenses against Mohamed, and applying the punishment reserved for blaspheming God, they are in effect deifying Mohamed and committing idolatry. I do not have a Quran to quote, but I believe Muslims acknowledge the Torah, and the 10 commandments to be divine.
