10,000 Muslim Protesters Demonstrate At Google UK HQ Over YouTube Film

Screen Shot 2012-10-15 at 16.36.01It's probably a little tricky to raise a protest march consisting of 10,000 Muslims outside the Googleplex in Mountain View, Santa Clara. But in the centre of London, it happens to be a cinch. Especially when they can simply bus and train in from other parts of the UK. So it's with no doubt just a little trepidation that Google UK - and its offices across Europe - faces ongoing mass protests from Muslims protesting about trailers for the anti-Islamic film 'The Innocence of Muslims' which appeared on YouTube recently and lead to worldwide protests and the death of a US ambassador. Google refuses to remove the videos. And so the protests look set to continue for many weeks to come. Eventually a million-strong march in Hyde Park is planned. So while YouTube HQ will be sunning itself in balmy Silicon Valley climes, it's likely that we will see a wave of continuing protests in Europe, and outside Google's beleaguered offices.
