[quote=Anonymous][quote]In Jordan, the Muslim Brotherhood said it would stage a protest after Friday prayers in Amman in response to the paper's Mohammed cartoon. I wonder if these protests are going to turn violent.

Around 1,500 people protested in one of the Philippines' main Muslim-majority cities on Wednesday against the French satirical weekly Charlie Hebdo's caricatures of the Prophet Mohammed, police said.

Local politicians, teenaged students and women with veils covering their faces packed the main square in Marawi in the southern Philippines, some raising their fists in the air as a Charlie Hebdo poster was burnt.

"What had happened in France, the Charlie Hebdo killing, is a moral lesson for the world to respect any kind of religion, especially the religion of Islam," organisers said in a statement released during the three-hour rally.

"Freedom of expression does not extend to insulting the noble and the greatest prophet of Allah."

The protest in the Philippines was one of first reported worldwide since the violence to express outrage at Charlie Hebdo.

The protesters carried streamers in with the words "You are Charlie" written in French, in response to the "I am Charlie" cry of those who condemned the attack.

One of the streamers read: "France must apologise", while another read: "You mock our prophet, now you want an apology?"[/quote]
Looks like they are in league with the terrorist. Wonder if France will drop a few cluster bombs into the crowd?[/quote]
