Disproportionate response? I'll show you a disproportionate response!: Family Security Matters:

Do you remember the assassination of Theo Van Gogh in Holland in 2002 because he made a "controversial film depicting Islam?" Or what about the murderous rampages throughout the Muslim "street" elicited by 12 cartoons deemed to be offensive to the Prophet, published in a Danish newspaper? Reactions started with public demonstrations and escalated to violence throughout the world; fires set to American flags in the Arab "street;" fires set in Danish embassies in Syria, Lebanon and Iran: storming European buildings; marches in Pakistan and Indonesia and throughout the Moslem world which incidentally included many placards of crude threats to Israel and the United States; and from Gaza the Hamas leader Mahmoud al-Zahar a call for death to the infidels. The violence resulted in hundreds injured and at least an equal number dead. Hmmm. That all sounds a tad disproportionate.
