Burqa Ban Demonstration in London - Updated

(London, England) Received a report on the promised demonstration (5/22/10) outside the Belgian Embassy in London, including videos (2). Here's one.



Islamist hyperbole was the focus of the demonstration. In a nutshell, the attitude and content of the demonstrators' message are displayed well by the following transcribed portion.

May Allah curse those that curse our religion.

May Allah curse those and give the most deadliest disease to those that insult our prophet Mohammed.

May Allah curse those who wish to conspire against our religion.

We ask Allah to bring destruction and tyranny and disease against those in Brussels who are oppressing our Ummah.

Oh allah bring victory to the Muslims.

Obviously, the Islamic veil issue will not be going away soon. Expect escalation.

Pro-Burqa Demonstrators Banned in Brussels
[Previous 5/22/10 post]
(Brussels, Belgium) Sharia4Belgium demonstrators have been denied permission to rally in Brussels to protest the pending ban against wearing the full-face Islamic burqa in public.

As a result, Sharia4Belgium organizer Abu Imran promised demonstrations at Belgium embassies throughout Europe, mentioning London, Dublin and Switzerland.

Authorities banned the Brussels protest for fear of "public order problems." The burqa ban is not yet in effect since it must be approved by the Belgium Senate.

Meanwhile,

The burqa debate is also raging in France, where the cabinet on Wednesday approved a draft law to ban the Muslim full-face veil from public spaces, opening the way for the text to go before parliament in July.

On its Internet website Sharia4Islam denounced "European oppression" of Muslims and called for the installation of Islamic Sharia law throughout Europe.

Pretty audacious, I'd say. Muslims are resisted while trying to impose Sharia law on unwilling Europeans so they claim they are being oppressed.
