hese derogatory remarks. We can sacrifice our lives for this as our Prophet (SAW) is dearer to us that any other thing,” shouted the students.They said the US and Israel do not want to live in peace with the Muslims that is why such blasphemous acts are done to create unrest in the Muslim world.“We cannot tolerate the attack on Islam by Americans and Jews through the media. Be it the desecration of the Holy Quran, the burning of mosques or making of these hurtful films, the Muslim community has time and again been targeted. America and its allies want to satisfy their selfish motives under the garb of global peace,” Javed Iqbal Shoora a student in protest said.Students also called for ban on the US-made products as a mark of protest. “Violence is not the way out. We must opt for other peaceful and meaningful ways of protesting. We should ban the use of the US based products . We all are emotionally charged right now, but we need to devise a long-term strategy to ward of such attacks by these countries,” Laqyiat Ali , a student at Degree college Bhaderwah said."The religious leaders of the Bhaderwah have advise people to maintain peace and not to indulge in activities that could further aggravate the situation."
