Local Muslim group plans peace rally
The Muslim Community Association of Ann Arbor and Vicinity (MCA) announced it will hold a rally and march Friday afternoon to call for an immediate ceasefire in the fighting in southern Lebanon between Israel and Hezbollah guerrillas.
The demonstration is scheduled to begin at 4 p.m. at the Federal Building on Liberty Street between Fourth and Fifth avenues in Ann Arbor, according to a statement from the MCA.
The MCA will be joined by other local organizations, including the Interfaith Council for Peace and Justice and Michigan Peace Works.
"Day after day we hear the news of more deaths and suffering of innocent civilians, we see the horrific images, and we wish we could somehow contribute to bringing this war to an end,'' MCA President Samir Tout said in the statement.

In light of today's events, this "peace" rally will be interesting.

I am not interested in their dog-and-pony show. They are frauds.
Just being a Muslim is a hate crime.

Sounds more like a 'Spare the Terrorists' rally to me, but I'm funny that way.

When muslim groups start holding rallys protesting the radical scum within their own ranks, demanding they give up their explosives and stop the random jihad killings ....
...then I'll give a rats a$$ about what they have to say.

No doubt there will be angry discussions of how those nasty Jews are maliciously impaling themselves on Arab bullets and shrapnel.

Sounds like a good opportunity to round a bunch of 'em up and deport 'em.

WOW!! A march and rally by enemies of society?? When Israel hears about this they are sure to withdraw and, maybe, even surrender.

Interesting, to say the least! Wonder if there will be any counter-rallying going on.

Our hands will always be tied as long as islam is classified as a religion and not as a trans-generational terrorist ideology with some superficial similarities to religion.

Stuff your peace rally, nobody is buying it anymore. They only want peace when they are on the losing end. Peace, indeed!
