Quote: |
BRITAIN��s leading Islamic body yesterday called on Sir Ian Blair, the Metropolitan police commissioner, to press charges against the extremists behind last week��s inflammatory protests in London over the ��blasphemous�� cartoons of the prophet Muhammad. |
Quote: |
Bunglawala said: ��Lots of innocent Muslims went to the demonstration not realising that it was organised by extremists. They were hijacked by them.��
Sir Iqbal Sacranie, the council��s secretary-general, said: ��We cannot have double standards, so therefore any breach of the law should be looked at by the police and investigated.
��The cartoons have offended every Muslim and the anger of Muslims has to be lawfully expressed. However, this outrage was used by some to induce Muslims into taking part in terrorist violence. We condemn their actions.��

He always seems like a nice guy but he's way out of touch with the ordinary muslim community. |

��It is time the police acted, but in a way so as not to make them martyrs of the Prophet��s cause, which is what they want, but as criminals. Ordinary Muslims are fed up with them.��
The council, a moderate umbrella group... |
