Jerusalem Palestinians Protest Anti-Islam Film, Cartoons
إقرأ هذا الخبر بالعربية
About 500 Palestinians on Saturday staged what banners proclaimed a "Festival of the followers of Mohammed" in east Jerusalem in protest against French cartoons and a U.S.-made film offensive to Islam.
"We are all faithful to Mohammed" and "Mohammed the Prophet of Islam," read the banners, brandished alongside flags of Palestinian president Mahmoud Abbas's Fatah movement and the rival Islamist Hamas, in the city's Issawiya neighborhood, an Agence France Presse journalist said.
Police did not intervene in the rally, which included a marching band, he added.
French satirical magazine Charlie Hebdo on Wednesday published cartoons portraying Mohammed naked, further fueling earlier protests over the U.S.-made film "Innocence of Muslims" which have raged since September 11, leaving dozens dead worldwide.

USA, Israel, France, justice, AJC, CRIF, artists, media, must identify as anti-Semitic the film & cartoons. Charlie Hebdo shows an orthodox Jew dominating helpless Mohammed in wheelchair. It suggests Jews DO WHAT to the Prophet? Who has profit from such images? A picture tells more than 1000 words. If film & cartoons are a blasphemy to Muslims they sure are huge anti-Semitic provocation, seed to disastrous conflicts. The perverse film & cartoons call to anti-Jews actions: in the entire world protestors want “death to America and Israel”. Obviously the hidden message of the film & cartoons is anti-Semitic, anti-American, anti-West European.Only results matter. Result is that Muslims are are now united in an enormous anger. The film & cartoons are NOT “liberty of expression” but organized subversive, anti-social ,racist criminal act. Law and justice, seen the results, must act. Jewish communities should ask for justice!
