Actually it's more to do with idolatry, sunni islam (much like early christianity was oppsed to images of Christ because of idolatry fears) is violently opposed to any depiction of ole Mo, Shia has a long tradition of depicting him respectfully through art, and what seems to be getting their knickers in a twist is that 1 infidels drew the cartoons, and 2 they do not kiss mo's ass sufficiently and for sunni islam, 3, it's a depiction of ole Mo.
