Surely you can see the difference between US demonstrations and angry mobs in developing countries??? A much better comparision might be mobs in non-Islamic developing countries. In this case, I can easily see what happened in Fallujah being repeated in cities in places like DR Congo and the CAR. In those cases, there would be little connection to Islam.
