Bin Laden Burned in Effigy by Muslims
(Ghazipur, India) Indian Muslims are becoming prominently vocal in their opposition to al-Qaeda.
Muslims in Ghazipur staged a demonstration against the recently announced al Qaeda's threat to India.It's good to see Muslims protesting against al-Qaeda even though it appears to be geographically-based opposition rather than a general dislike of terrorism. Nonetheless, I sure would like a picture of Osama bin Laden being burned in effigy.
They burnt effigies of Abu al-Yazid and al Qaeda Chief Osama Bin Laden and warned the al Qaeda against threatening India.We are protesting against the terrorists. We have burnt their effigies.Whenever they'll make such statements, we will protest against it. We will give a strong reply back to them, " said Gauhar, a protestor.
On Tuesday Al-Qaeda Commander Mustafa Abu al-Yazid, in Afghanistan had warned India of more attacks like the one on Mumbai, and said its economic interests would be targeted if it retaliates against Pakistan.
