The artist says that he drew the cartoon because he felt that they were right to not publish the Mohammed cartoons, and never expected them to publish this one either. I just wanted to get the whole thing off my chest, and maybe start some discussion.

Well, it can certainly be argued that publishing the Mohammed cartoons wasn't RESPONSIBLE, but it was in no way, shape, or form ILLIEGAL. Those that did riot have no ethical or legal grounds to stand on whatsoever; I don't care what is taboo in your religion--you DON'T start killing people over it, not in a civilized society.
