India: Anti-US Protests by Some Muslims in Chennai – Analysis
by B.
Raman
A group of about 1500 Muslims
staged an ugly demonstration outside the US Consulate-General in Chennai on the
evening of September 14, 2012, in protest against a derogatory film on Islam
and its Holy Prophet produced by an unidentified person in the US.
The details of what happened in
Chennai disturbingly resemble what happened in the Azad Maidan in Mumbai last
month and what took place in Benghazi on September 11.While a large number of
Muslims were peacefully demonstrating or holding a meeting, small groups of
violent Muslim youth entered the scene and tried to indulge in violence. While
in Mumbai and Chennai, the Muslim youth who indulged in violence were armed
only with stones, in Benghazi they carried rifles and rocket-propelled grenades
resulting in fatalities.
