hate demo in the u.k

By PAUL THOMPSON
THEIR eyes are full of hate and their banners call for a new 7/7 terror attack.
This is the way a baying Muslim mob reacted to the row over the Prophet Muhammad cartoons on the streets of London yesterday.
More than 400 protesters — including small children — carried placards scrawled with messages of hate. A baby girl even had "I Love al-Qaeda" on her bonnet.
The parents of pretty Farisa Jihad, 20 months, proudly proclaimed she is the youngest member of the terror group.
She was brought to the protest by her father Abu, 38. Next to her was a huge poster exclaiming: "Whoever insults a prophet, kill him."
Another placard nearby said: "Britain you will pay — 7/7 is on its way."
Another declared: "Behead those who insult Islam." Another said: "Free speech go to hell."
The mob met after Friday prayers outside Regent’s Park mosque in central London and marched through the streets towards the Danish embassy on Sloane Street. Denmark was the first to publish the cartoons.
Shouts of "We adore Osama Bin Laden" rang out from a small section of the crowd along with "Denmark watch your back — Osama’s coming back."
Many in the crowd waved their provocative placards and screamed their hatred towards Europe. One read: "Europe — take some lessons from 9-11", while another warned: "Europe you will pay."
Two children, aged about six, sat on top of a car with a placard saying: "Black flag over Downing Street."
The protesters were whipped into a frenzy when a red and white Danish flag was set on fire. The charred pieces of the flag were held aloft on a stick.
When one protester shouted out "Bomb, bomb Denmark" the sound of an air raid siren was played over loudspeakers. Onlookers were shocked by the ferocity of the demo. Mohammed Demasco, 24, who moved to the UK from Syria 13 years ago, said they did not represent the views of mainstream Muslims.
He said: "Slogans saying ‘UK go to hell’ do not represent me as a Muslim. There is a lot of anger going around here and unfortunately you get idiocy like this. It makes me very angry and I have spoken to people holding these placards and asked them why they are saying such things."
A policeman standing in front of the crowd made notes of the words of hatred being shouted out. Three Transit vans full of his colleagues were parked out of view of the protesters ready to reinforce the dozen officers standing in front of the embassy.
Despite the banners the demo was peaceful.
Bosses at the BBC had earlier beefed up security at TV centre in Shepherds Bush after protesters made threats against Newsnight presenter Jeremy Paxman.
There were shouts of "Watch your back Paxman" after they disagreed with comments he made on air about the cartoon issue.
A BBC source said: "Any threat against a member of staff will be taken seriously." Glimpses of the cartoons have been seen on TV. No British newspaper has published them. The Muslim Council of Britain last night condemned the demonstration.
Secretary general Sir Iqbal Sacranie said: "The British media has taken a lead on the world stage by showing responsibility and restraint over this issue. It’s deplorable that a small group of rogue demonstrators has repaid the restraint with the type of language used at the demonstration. We totally condemn the type of language used.
The demo in London followed similar protests across the world.Violence flared in Jakarta, Indonesia, when a mob of 70 people stormed a high-rise building housing the Danish embassy.
In the West Bank and Gaza Strip, Muslim leaders vowed revenge for the "blasphemous" cartoons. One preacher told worshippers: "We will not accept less than severing the heads of those responsible."
The editor of a paper in Jordan was fired after he ran the cartoons.And in Lebanon, Palestinian refugees called on Bin Laden to take revenge. One said: "We will not be satisfied with protests. The solution is the slaughter of those who harmed Islam and the Prophet."
