protest march again

[laurence2]

According to reports their is going to be Another march in london on the 18th feb by muslims in protest of i assume the caricatures of the prophet mohammed

Why is their another protest, and more to the point, How many protest are needed.

My view is muslims have already protested, made their opinions felt, But i feel this is going to get the countrys back up, Especially now members of the goverment have insisted for Zero tolerance

The muslim action committee says 50,000 will join this protest, i'm sure the majority will protest peacefully, But can't help but think it will be Hijacked by a section of extremist and everyone will be tarnished with the same brush

I read this story too, but apparently the protesters are going to be protesting against the Muslim fanatics that protested last week.

The report (I believe it was in today's Independent) went on to say that there would be protests against the cartoons, but hopefully, it will show the rest of the country that a) the Muslim majority can show their feelings without resorting to the rabid antics of last week and b) the 'silent majority' of Muslims won't allow the extremist to speak in their names.

...which I hope will defuse the whole mess, at least in this country.

do they really need to keep on with this nonsense?So some people made some cartoons about something they didnt find funny? Where was the worldwide riots when The Life Of Brian was first shown?
