The U.K. Daily Telegraph is reporting that up to 10,000 Muslims protested at Google offices in London Sunday over material offensive to the Prophet Muhammad, specifically a YouTube video that was earlier blamed for protests throughout the Middle East.
One of the organizers, Masoud Alam, threatened that until the film is banned, they will continue to protest at Google and YouTube offices around the world (YouTube is a subsidiary of Google).
“This is not freedom of expression, there is a limit for that. This insult of the Prophet will not be allowed,” he remarked. “Until it is banned, we will keep protesting.”
Protesters’ signs primarily said the company’s executives support “terrorism,” that Muhammad “gave light to the dark ages,” and “how dare you insult the blessed Prophet.”

The Telegraph continues:
Barricades were erected in front of Google’s headquarters and a crowd bearing placards with the words “We love our prophet more than our lives” and “Prophet Muhammad is the founder of freedom of speech” had amassed by lunchtime.
Speeches by more than a dozen imams in a mixture of Arabic, Urdu, and English urged Muslims to honour the name of the Prophet and not to back down in the face of Google’s continuing reluctance to act, and were met with passionate cries of “God is Great” and “Mohammad is the Prophet of God” in Arabic.
One of the speakers, Sheikh Faiz Al-Aqtab Siddiqui, told The Daily Telegraph: “Terrorism is not just people who kill human bodies, but who kill human feelings as well. The makers of this film have terrorised 1.6 billion people.
“Organisations like Google are key players and have to take responsibility for civility. You can’t just say it doesn’t matter that it’s freedom of speech. It’s anarchy.” [Emphasis added]
Protesters throw their fists in the air in unison as a speaker addresses the crowd. (Photo: The Telegraph)
The protest lasted for between three and four hours and, according to The Telegraph, blocked roads “almost up to the Queen’s doorstep.” When asked where all the women were, one protester replied, “right at the back.”
YouTube still refuses to remove the video, saying that while it is a “challenge” to determine what will spark controversy from one country to another, it is “clearly within” their guidelines for acceptable material.
The protest marks the most recent call for international blasphemy laws since protests swept the Middle East roughly one month ago, on the anniversary of September 11.
Around that time, TheBlaze TV released a two-part special called “The Project” detailing documents discovered after 9/11 with plans for how to gradually subvert the West– particularly regarding slandering Islam. Click here to read more about it.

Oct. 15, 2012 at 1:49amThey contradict what they are saying. They are not civil. They are not light to the world. Most of them are terrorists because that is what they were taught to do by their prophet Muhamad. Mohamed will be judged by the Lord Jesus Christ at the judgment just like everyone else.

Oct. 15, 2012 at 7:00amThe Global elite have opened the flood gates for muslims to come to America. The Global Elite want this in America. Their philosophy is that “the enemy of my enemy is my friend”
They hate Americans for delaying their NWO because they cling to their Bibles and Guns.
They know that by bringing hundreds of thousands of Muslims here with NO background checks will ensure that scenes like this begin in America. They want to break us down so that they can RESTRUCTURE. Obama recently signed an executive order bringing 60,000 – 80,000 muslims to America with no background checks. I had the evidence. It was a U.S. Congressman admitting it on stage. It was Removed “By the User” recently. I can’t find it anywhere. They are covering their tracks.
make copies of things like I have, before they remove them from the Net.

This part of the world is like the movie ground hog day. The same s**t keeps happening over & over again. I think it’s a cancer that is terminal. It may be that the bible is right about the end of days prediction. What else explains the insanity in the world today. I would like to think things will be OK but when I listen to the news I think their is just to much to deal with. Then I think of this song called

Oct. 15, 2012 at 2:53amYour comment is correct in every respect, Momrules.
The Islamists are trying to keep the ball rolling. It is clear that the Obama administration was hell-bent on linking the Libyan murders to that silly video long after that idea was discredited.
I don’t know whether Mr Obama is a muslim or not, but it is very clear that he strongly supports islam and has proven this in a number of incidents with which we are all familiar.
The sooner that Mr Obama and his family are standing in Pennsylvania Avenue beside their suitcases, the better things will be for America and the rest of the free world.

If freedom offends you so much, move to a country where they execute people who offend your prophet. Go back to Mordor.

Oct. 14, 2012 at 10:25pmMuslim countries have governments based on religious law. Similarly christians also believe government should reflect religious doctrine like the Ten Commandments.
Women have fewer rights than men and are expected to obey their husbands. Many christians also believe that men should be dominant and women should obey their husbands.
Muslims believe abortion should be outlawed. So do most christians
Homosexuals are considered evil and punishable by death in some Muslim countries. They are also considered evil by most christians who oppose equal rights for gays.
Muslim extremists do not tolerate other cultures and religions very well. Christian fundamentalists also oppose multiculturalism
Muslims believe it’s important to spread their faith throughout the world. Many christian also believe it’s their duty to convert everyone to their faith
In many muslim countries, religious doctrine is taught in public schools. Many christians also support teaching religious beliefs in school, even to the exclusion of accepted scientific facts.

Oct. 15, 2012 at 7:32amIt is the methods by which those similarities are achieved that separate our cultures so vastly. Islam teaches force and subjugation are acceptable methods by which to achieve goals. The top rung of the ladder muslims climb to “salvation” is Jihad. One can try to play the word as not necessarily a violent “Holy War”, but world events don’t support that claim. Our religions on the surface seem similar but their core is polar opposite. Islam’s God asks that one raise their sons to die in his name. My God sent his only son to die for me so that I may have eternal salvation! This cannot and will not be taken from me.

This is the same way people justify voting for Obama even though he continues to make things worse. Just because both religions don’t believe in killing babies doesn’t make them the same! Multiculturalism is a political strategy and Muslims don’t like other cultures because they were told to kill other cultures in the Koran if they don’t become Muslim.

Oct. 15, 2012 at 7:03amLondon is especially infested with muslims engaged in Jihad. And Londoners have been dhimmified for decades. Heck, even the display of piggy banks is forbidden…because it is “offensive” to muslims.
As I have said in the past, and what will be someday recognized as the only rational, non-violent approach to mitigating the effects of muslims engaged in jihad:
1) Outlaw Islam
2) Close the mosques
3) Deport the muslims
Remember, there are no radicalized, violent, extremist, islamists. There are only muslims engaged in jihad. Muslims will jihad on non-muslims as it is the mechanical process by with their culture is propagated into new lands. They will always present the jihad as the fault of the unreasonable and racist non-muslims who insist on insulting Mohammed or the Allah deity. But Jihad is not a response to any perceived slights suffered by the muslims, it is a process to spread their culture and their laws and their faith.
Be sustained by this knowledge, Google. None of what the muslims are doing in the streets is any of your fault. You have been deceived, Google. Turn back to The West, Google. Fight Jihad!
