My thoughts are this, Many of the Muslim countries are run by their religion. I don't know if Theocracy is the exact correct word. So insulting their prophet or religion, would be analagous to someone burning our flag. (which is still legal but won't be someday if they keep introducing constitutional amendments)
that covers the political aspect of it for me. The religious aspect is a matter of respect, and respect is something a person shows or doesn't, but I don't think it can be enforced across borders.
