A Religion Of Peace?

Well, if you say so – though this would certainly seem to contradict that claim.

Israeli police stormed the grounds of Islam's third-holiest shrine Friday, firing stun grenades and tear gas to disperse thousands of Muslim worshippers who hurled stones, bottles and trash in an eruption of outrage over Israeli renovation nearby.

Where I come from, that isn’t worship – that is a riot. And when you go to a religious service where the get you all hyped up to riot, that doesn’t constitute a peaceful religion.

And I'm curious as to which one "mainstream" Muslim organizations will denounce -- the riot instigated by Jew-hating clerics, or the attempt to restore a walkway that provoked it?
