Do we have the right to not obey Islamic law?

Jay Tea over at Wizbang frames the cartoon conniption perfectly with this question: “Do we have the right to not obey Islamic law?”
…the world is being presented with the Islamic demands that we not depict Mohammed. On the surface, it’s a silly issue, and some commentators, satirists, and cartoonists have had a field day with that (when they’re not facing their own threats). But underneath the giggles is a simple, fundamental issue: the Islamists are demanding that their religious laws hold sway worldwide, and are using every weapon at their disposal — economic threats, violence, and appeals to liberal guilt, just to name three — to get the non-Islamic world to submit.
And let us never forget: Islam does NOT mean “peace.” It means “submission.”
