/// The group's next action was a march Mr Alam hoped would be "a million strong" would take place in Hyde Park "in the next few weeks", he said. ///

/// "Until it is banned we will keep protesting," he added. ///

/// "We love our prophet more than our lives" and "Prophet Muhammad is the founder of freedom of speech" ///

Isn't that a contradiction of terms?

According to the link; I'm lost!
It does seem odd, AOG, freedom of speech is the last thing I'd relate to anything to do with Islam.
It took me to the Telegraph web site but not the link

Thank you hc4361, that is the one.

I don't know what went wrong with mine.

Perhaps the Telegraph should withdraw their video, because it offends me?
It certainly is. As far as muslims are concerned freedom of speech only goes as far as what they want to hear. Anything else should be banned and if you dont cow tow you will get a bullet in the head.

Any unapproved protest should be dealt with by water canon and tear gas followed by rubber bullets. Also set the dogs on them, they dont like dogs either. In fact not very British at all are they really?
No, youtube should not withdraw this video - until Islam respects all other religions as they wish their own to be respected then they have no right in their demands.
I do find it amusing though that any relgious believer can moan about "..age of Mockery". If belief in mythical beings and a book of fairytales is not asking for "mockery" I don't know what is".
There are several interesting points arising out of this protest; Additional voices from the religious calling for a coalition of believers from all spectrums of organised religion to band together and attempt to introduce greater "civility" toward religious ideas -code for introducing or tightening blasphemy laws. This should be resisted.

Second is the attempt to equate the notion of free speech, and this hate filled, propaganda film, clearly made to incite hatred, as a form of terrorism - This attempt to rebrand terrorism as not just the killing of human bodies, but the killing of human feelings as well - not a well thought out argument.

There is a muslim journalist called Mehdi Hassan, who writes on politics principally. I find myself disagreeing with much of what he writes, but he did write an interesting article, condemning the overreaction and violence that erupted across the muslim world following the publicity over this film, and I wish more muslims across the world would recognise his words and, frankly, grow up...

I wonder how far the authorities will allow these protests to go before they take strong action against them.

They seem to take a more stronger attitude against such organisations as the English Defence League, which to me seem a lot less threatening.

What I can't understand is why this affair has flared up once again since the mass mob attacks on the US consulate in Benghazi, Libya, when the US Ambassador Chris Stevens and three other Americans were killed, in early September.

At that time the name of the film was not mentioned, and yet now it has been mentioned, more people who would not have otherwise viewed it, have now all seen it.

Surely it would have been better if the Muslims had ignored it, no one forced them to watch it.
Question Author
Not much interest shown in this I see, I wonder if some will wake up when they take the further action that they have promised in the next few weeks?

/// /// The group's next action was a march Mr Alam hoped would be "a million strong" would take place in Hyde Park "in the next few weeks", he said. ///

Unless of course the Home Secretary bans further marches, in the interests of safety and civil calm?
didn't a million people protest against the Iraq war? The government just ignored them and the war went ahead. I expect they will do the same this time, and so shall I.
no link
meanwhile it will be another debacle for the capital if 1 million march, and a proof finally that Islamic followers are just sheep.
Godalmighty ... what is WRONG with these people ??!!
