So what happened at Islam Channel event

Looks like the Islam Channel event that recently took place was a success, but also seems to have caused offence to some of those who attended.

Picked Politics takes up the story:

Last week the Islam Channel organised a “global unity” event at Excel where Muslims came in their thousands. The BBC covered it here. But was it really how it was made out to be? What was it really like inside? And were reports in the Jewish press justified? One of our (Muslim) readers writes in with comments on the event.

The BBC reports:

"Under the plans, police could seek a court order for the temporary closure of a place of worship if extremist behaviour or terrorist activity was believed to be taking place.

"Mosques were not specifically singled out in the proposal but most people would see the proposal as referring to mosques and trustees of mosques, the MCB has said."

Well, is that a surprise? It's not the Scientologists who are bombing the infidel throughout the world, is it?

So, what was the purpose of this gathering?
