Britain
3,000 Muslims set for war protest
2005-04-30
They don't say when this massive display of Muzzy protest and seething and marching will occur, so I can't offer the traffic alert I intended to our cousins, but it'll be, um, something, I'm sure.
Thousands of members of Britain's Muslim community are to march against what they see as oppression resulting from the "war on terror".

More than 100 Islamic organisations from across the country will take part in the demonstration across central London.

One of the organisers, Dr Imran Waheed, said three to five thousand people were expected to attend the event which will begin at Marble Arch. He said: "The basic message is that the Muslim community wants to voice its opposition to what it views as the oppression of the war on terror."

People were angry about control orders imposed on suspects and detention of people without trial in Guantanamo Bay, he said. The issues of increasing stop-and-search, detainees held at Belmarsh, and the extradition of individuals to the United States were also causing concern.

Dr Waheed added: "We are speaking out about the atmosphere which is being generated in our community. We believe our community is making a contribution the wider society. We feel that this draconian implementation of the war on terror is damaging relations between Muslims and others."

The Islamic Human Rights Commission, the Muslim Association of Britain, and Hizb ut-Tahrir Britain are among the groups taking part. Dr Waheed said groups who disagreed on many other issues were joining together to make their voices heard.

The march will end at the high-security Paddington Green police station, where a number of terror suspects have been held. "It is kind of symbolic because a lot of people are taken there and released without charge a couple of days later," Dr Waheed said.
I'm hoping for a pink Kaaba, myself. It would need wheels, of course.

#13  omy H - Your comments are hyper-sensitive drivel. Your sentiments are blind to the true horrors, the far more numerous horrors, the thoughtlessly accepted by the faithful horrors, the ancient barbaric and brutal horrors - those perpetrated by Islam.

Marching around is the answer to, "What do you do if you're terminally stupid?", not to any perceived bigotry. On that line, there is no one on this planet as bigoted, in innumerable avenues, than a True Believer in Islam. Had you a shred of intellectual honesty, you'd know that as fact. The baggage of Islam is bigotry enshrined.

Your reference to torture indicates you're among the terminally dis-informed and deluded, as well. What do you know of torture? Who kidnaps, terrorizes, and tortures totally innocent people - before sawing their heads off and posting the snuff flic on the Internet? Who celebrates in the streets over burning people alive, then dragging their bodies from a vehicle's wreckage and strings them up for more amateur movie-making? Who revels in the deaths of innocents? Islam. Who tortures innocents? Islam? Who is so blind that they see no fault in themselves and always blame others for their incompetence, barbarity, failures, brutality, hatred, corruption, and misogyny? Islam.

And who posts their disingenuous ignorance, blind bigotry, and utter cluelessness on RB for the entire world to see?

You. Wotta tool.

HAND/FOAD.

#12  Hey omy ?h - whose religion is so terrified of the truth that it makes all other religions practically illegal under penalty of death (definately under penalty of torture and always under humiliation...).

Who's religion is so terrified of women that it dictates that they be covered head to food and kept at home?

Who's religion honors people who murder innocent women and children with 72 virgins in the afterlife?

Who's religion is based on a pedophile, murder, liar and false prophet? (and this is according to its own 'holy scriptures'...)

I suggest that you go look at the Iraq mass graves. How about here where your hero buried even babies in mass graves.

#6  any possibility of extending this march to the cliffs of Dover? Lemming-like they can follow their Imams into the channel

#5   I think it's a great idea! That way police along the route can review the crowd via cameras and radio ahead so their buddies can collect up any suspects right at the front gate of the prison. Saves them the time of having to track them down and bus them to jail.
