After all, who can win against a counter-protest that includes robots, magical anime girls, Trekkies, Jedi, and... kittens?"

I think there may be hope for the middle east.
Except if you had RTFA, you'd note that the Trekkie was holding a sign that said "God Hates Jedi". I think he was one of the serious protesters, but got lumped in with the comic-con spoofers.

I still love the idea someone on Kotaku had when they saw the Team Fortress 2 spy cosplayer with the 'GOD HATES SENTRIES' sign: He should have been standing in the midst of the WBC crazies, with one of THEIR signs, wearing 'a moron mask'.
The whole thing is just absolutely hilarious though. Good on them for mounting the counter-protest! Those WBC people are assholes.
