Protests In Jos Over Us, Britain’s Support For Israel
Hundreds of Muslims in Jos yesterday took to the streets after Jumat prayers in protest against the stance of the United States of America and Britain on the call by Iran that Israel should be wiped off the map of the world.

Dressed in red, the protesters who paraded major streets in the Plateau State capital also distributed leaflets most of them in Arabic which some of them who spared some steps to respond to questions said were in condemnation of the two countries.
The peaceful demonstrators in an apparent show of displeasure with the official position of US and Britain dragged their flags along the streets where they staged the protest thereby causing panic among residents of a possible breakdown of law and order.
Shops around Dilimi and Abuja markets temporarily closed in apprehension of the protest possibly getting out of hand and becoming a full blown inter religious.”
