I love it!
Re your #16 -
I've seen photos of that picture (which has been widely used in satirical portrayals of "Mohammed") from Iraq some time ago, and as I recall it is not supposed to be the "prophet" at all, but some famous Immam who lived a few hundred years ago and is highly revered by some sect or another of Islam.
Sort of like a "Saint", I guess.
Perhaps someone who knows more about Moslem history than i do could comment?
