Can anyone give me an example of the Muslims massive protest against radical Islamic terrorists?
In any Muslim country? Ever?
Muchardav, even that only one protest of 150 "nigerians and Muslims" did not happen to be in Islamic country or city. It was in Deaborn, Michigan, USA .
So, after all your efforts, you could not find a single case of the massive protest of Muslims against Islamic terrorism.
Thank you, your answer was very helpful.

Please keep in mind many countries are oppressive, not necessarily because they're MUSLIM, but because they're backed by Western Countries who have an interest in keeping the people in check. Perfect examples are Kuwait, UAE, Saudi Arabia and Egypt. Muslims who live in countries not predominantly Muslim do protest against terrorism (India, USA, UK, Canada) and their Muftis regularly speak out against it.
@curious1, and what happens when people stand up to settler terrorism? Why don't we ask Yitzhak Rabin. Are you against the settlers?

i think of countless human beings choose to appreciate the respond to this query. in the absence of maximum individuals condemning the minority shall we be forgiven maximum individuals helps terrorist atrocities. This minority is in certainty massive once you think approximately violent conflict international related to muslims: Bali, Indonesia, the Sudan, Nigeria, China, Darfur, Madrid, London, ny, Iraq, Afghanistan, Malaysia, Paris, Bosnia, to call yet some. I examine on Sky information on Friday that Jose Morinho had won loss of life threats for his comments approximately Ramadan. the situations has advance into ridiculous if human beings won't be able to even convey an opinion with regards to Islam. Muslims are curiously prepared and able to organise a protest against returning provider workers (Luton), and the Unite against Fascism team right now assembled supposedly in opposition to the enhance in help for the BNP, yet they stay surprisingly silent over 'extremists'. the comprehensive 'faith of peace' element isn't something greater advantageous than propaganda that activities international disproves. There she is going - with an innovations-set like yours - 'we don't owe everybody something' it is not extraordinary human beings's backs are up. in certainty if muslims elect to stay in non-muslim countries they do owe something to that united states and could combine into that society. we are expected to admire and tolerate Islam that's probably no longer reciprocated.

"Radical Islamic terrorists" are not official governments, but unrecognized organizations that were mainly formed as result of Western terrorism. They are responsible for less than 1% of terrorist attacks in the world (considering that wars are also terroristic). US and Israel caused far greater terror and damage to other countries and peoples than all "Muslim radical organizations" combined. So under what logic should they protest the death of 20 people in the US for example by some unknown individuals, while the US official government killed and still killing 100 times more of their own? The terrorist attacks between Muslim groups (Sunni and Shea) in which big number of civilians also die, is viewed in the Muslim/Arab countries as result of US failure to establish security that existed in the previous ruling government, and because a significant number of these attacks are (as Muslim public believes) caused by the US itself to create civil wars (divide and conquer).

1.499 billion Muslims refrained from “terrorism” while you were raining Phosphorus on Gazans.
JPA of Zion,
Look closely at the man running away in the picture, he is unarmed and no Zionist court will deliver justice...you and your Islam Phobic buddy Lewis Bernard better look for some psychological help.

Claiming Israel "stole" IS EXTREMISTS ideology!
Reality - all Israel stole was the extremists imperialist goal to dominate the region & not let any minority have self-rule. Jews were invited in to develope the region by the owners, the Ottoman empire, those Turks. 75% of Arabs moved into the area AFTER the Jews created jobs & opportunties.
On protesting enmass, I haven't seen it. They could go to the US mall & form a rally. The US Iranians did on behalf of the Iranian election protestors. There are Muslims who oppose them, but they aren't very loudly vocal enmass that I've observed.
I have seen Muslim sites objecting to it. But only 1 out of 4 given to me by a Muslim, truly objected without buying into the ideas & scrapping only the war method of terrorism. That other 1 though was an impressive group -- but very small at this point.
There is a group in Israel & terroritories called OneVoice that is trying to stand up to the extremists. I just saw today http://www.peacewithrealism.org/headline/onevoice....
they are being threatened by the extremists & it's hindering them.

You're answer explains so much. There isn't an ounce of self-responsiblity in there for your own people's actions & choices. I was harmed therefore I have to be a terrorist, doesn't make sense. The history doesn't support that level of crying victim either, but it's obvious that if one doesn't take responsiblity for oneself, one will interpret everything as though massively victim to it. Thanks, that was very eye opening for me.

You say "just after israelis massively protest Israeli actions." You aren't very familar with the country are you? Israelis protest their governments actions all the time. Why do you think Israel pulled out of south Lebanon & unfortunately opened the door for Hizbollah? Or why PeaceNow's organizational influence on policies led to Olso offer of a country to the Arabs? And the list continues...
As for terrorist actions, at no time does Israel randomly target civilians for murder. THAT is the definition of terrorism. It's not about political policies or war. Non-directed bombs from Gaza like the one into Askhelon yesterday, do randomly target civilians. What's striking is when counter strikes to the mobile bomb launchers come back from Israel 2 minutes later, the Palestinian News Network writes that the 16 & 17 year old launchers were innocent children victims collecting the launcher as scrap metal. This is literally how they write the story in their own news media.
Trancing
Three problems with that link. One it forgets to mention Gazan's use of white phosorous, so it's bias & not to be trusted. Two, it was used by IDF legally to light up Hamas military tunnels hiding snipers, but ignores that use. Three there were a couple IDF soldiers that were brought up on charges by the IDF for using it too liberally in very limited incidents in middle of war zone -- hardly "terrorism".
Plus the 4th problem - it's an insipid attack on Israel vilifying her, to avoid answering the question -- where are all the Muslim protestors to for instance, Hamas's terrorism? In Gaza anyone protesting would be dead, but what about Muslims in the rest of the world supporting the small subset peaceful Muslims there against Hamas in massive rallies? THAT would make a difference.
To asker:
There is a "don't talk back to it" feel in Islam, that is likely why we don't see more. In his book "The Crisis of Islam" Lewis Bernard covers this.
- curious1Lv 61 decade ago
just another example of muslim hypocrisy. they say that the terrorists are not true muslims but will not stand up against them.
you would think that your every day muslim would be outraged if they were not "true muslims" doing this, but no they celebrate every time there is a bombing of some western target.
in all fairness, i suppose they could be just plain scared to stand up to them, in the fear that they could become a target themselves.

hmmm,interesting question...think about it...
-these "terrorists" are merely ticked off because you stole their land...you know,those little palestinian's you were crushing with those huge tanks like roaches?yeah,those things...
-you wonder why Hamas keeps shooting these incredibly annoying rockets...hmm,im guessing they don't like being rain on with white phosphorous,which is noted in the UN as a war crime...wait,how is this a war?they have kitchen knives,and you have modern american-made guns...ANYWAY,im guessing they're not very ecstatic that you destroyed they're home,and killed their family,and trapped them in a refugee camp which ironiclly resembles a German concentration camp...
-you have a strict contract with surrounding countries (*EGYPT* *cough* *cough*) that enforces that the Palestinian refugees are not to run to the border of that country and that country is not allowed to send humanitarian aid
-countries that DO sent humanitarian aid (ie Saudi Arabia) get they're goods declined by the IDF soldiers and never reach the refugee camps...
which concludes me to this particular rap song by an arabic rap group,and the song is called "meen erhabe" (who's the terrorist?):
