Muslim anti-Isis March

Post by Jason » Fri Dec 11, 2015 1:23 am

Muslim anti-Isis march not covered by mainstream media outlets, say organisers
'Hundreds of Muslims flooded the streets of London to condemn terrorism. Media’s response: Silence'

Organisers of an anti-Isis march in London have spoken of their frustration after mainstream media outlets failed to cover the demonstration.

Thousands of people took part in the annual UK Arbaeen Procession, coordinated by the Husaini Islamic Trust UK, on Sunday.

Although Shia Muslims take part in the march each year to mark the Arbaeen, or mourning, anniversary of Imam Husain - a seventh-century leader who fought for social justice - this year organisers decided to use the event as a platform to denounce terrorism following the recent Isis attacks in Paris, Beirut and elsewhere.

Fairly natural that Shiite muslims are against a movement dominated by their Sunni opponents... :roll:

Like to see them demonstrating against the fascist behaviour of the religious police in Shiite Iran...
