Riots by Muslims that began on September 11, 2012, have reached Jerusalem, where demonstrations were held after Friday prayers at the Al-Aqsa mosque in the Old City.
The protests began peacefully with several hundred people demonstrating on the plaza that holds both the Al-Aqsa and Dome of the Rock mosques, chanting, "With our blood and our soul, we will sacrifice for you our Prophet."
But clashes broke out between a part of the crowd and Israeli police as the demonstration moved out of the Old City, with security forces firing tear gas and stun grenades that injured at least five people, an AFP correspondent said. Several policemen were reportedly hurt.
"Israel police are dispersing rioters at Damascus Gate, rocks and stones are being thrown at them," police spokesman Micky Rosenfeld told AFP.
An AFP correspondent at the scene said demonstrators appeared to be trying to head to U.S. diplomatic premises in east Jerusalem, with Israeli police, some on horseback, seeking to prevent the protest from moving.
In Gaza, thousands of people rallied at demonstrations in Gaza City and the southern town of Rafah, a day after the ruling Hamas party urged citizens to turn out for protests after Friday prayers.
Protesters waved the flags of the Hamas and Islamic Jihad movements, and set fire to American flags, chanting "Death, death to America, death, death to Israel."

It’s really hard for me to even attempt to think like they do. I understand what you’re saying though. These people are really odd.
Bust heads !
Supposedly Obama invited the Muslim Brotherhood to meet at the WH next week and nothing for Netanyahu.
I cannot say it either. Be very careful.
America's Got Talent, Voice and The New Normal ... why ... there are SO many more important things going on than politics (spit)
Hey .. I just heard ... did you know Michael Jackson was dead?
Yeah!
Fer real !
Obama has the media on his side and who would believe muslims over our hardworking propaganda machine. Perhaps a better way to use it - blackmail the Obama/Clinton alinskyites. The latter are sticking to the “movie” story to save their azz’ w/ media coverage despite the fact that the Libyan government has knocked it off the table...not sure about the Egyptian Bro.hoodies, if they haven’t, it’s highly likely the sword will dangle indefinately over the pair. I project they’ll continue to call Islam a peaceful religion, it’s all our fault, give them more money - certainly won’t retract the money they’ve already received, iow, do exactly as they’re told. I don’t see us going in and retaliating but remaining outside apologizing. No wonder they’re pizzed at Romney...they were probably told by the muslim brotherhood to shut him up.
Let’s not leave out the abortion terrorists and contraception. Two of the most coveted liberal issues.
BTW, what are the Kardashians up to lately? S/
“The attacks did not happen because of this film. I think the organizers used the excuse about the film to recruit people into their protests.”
EXACTLY!!
The rest of your post is an interesting speculation also.
