Friday Prayers, Friday Violence Threat

Generally, the soap operas pi** me off too.

But I would never consider blowing up TV antennas:
At Friday prayers at Kabul's largest mosque, Enayatullah Balegh, an influential cleric and university teacher, told reporters he and his followers were adamant.

"We are 6,000 people in this mosque, our intention ... is to go and blow up all the TV antennas if they do not stop it," Balegh said in front of his congregation.

"God is greatest, we are ready," the congregation chanted in response.
The showing of "immodestly" dressed women in the soap opera aren't allowed in Islam, the clerics said.

Exit question: Does Islam allow incitement of violence in mosques?
