EDL are coming to Newport

Antifa Cymru | 17.09.2009 12:15 | Anti-racism | Migration | Social Struggles

The English Defence League are planning a protest in the Welsh city of Newport on the 24th October.

Newport is a multi-racial city that has not suffered from the racial tensions seen elsewhere in the UK.

If the EDL do turn up, this will be their Cable Street.

lets get inr the know before this one so we know how best to take the scum out.

ANTIFA SOUTH WEST

The English Defence League are right read this:

A hate fanatic has boasted that Muslims will one day conquer Britain - by having more babies. Speaking at a rally marking 9/11, Anjem Choudary bragged that a birth explosion would let followers of Islam take control of the country. Undercover Sun investigators secretly recorded Choudary telling a young and impressionable audience that they would eventually rule under strict Sharia law.

And our team listened in chilled silence as he predicted: "Islam is superior and will never be surpassed. The flag of Islam will rise over Downing Street." Lawyer Choudary also said it would be easy for vast numbers of Muslims to declare Jihad, or holy war, against Britain - and that every one of them could become "a time bomb waiting to go off". The Sun team watched vile Choudary, the right-hand man of exiled preacher of hate Omar Bakri, ranting to 100 young Muslims at a meeting in East London. The mob bayed and cheered as he said: "About 500 people in Britain become Muslim every day.

"The Home Office say there are 1.5million Muslims but there were 1.5million ten years ago. Since then our brothers in Bethnal Green, Whitechapel and other places have had eight or nine children each. Eight children here, ten children, 15 children. There must be at least six million people. It may be by pure conversion that Britain will become an Islamic state. We may never need to conquer it from the outside."

Islamic fundamentalism is a serious threat

The Sun?

Haaaa haaaa you referenced the Sun

It must be true if the sun says it.

Not worried

RE above comment..

YES, there are fundamentalists - this is true of every religion (always has been and always will be!!) The point is they are targeting EVERY Muslim! You cant have an influence on the minority by targeting the majority. If anything you would cause more antagonism, pushing extremist behavior further. I think we all agree that extremist religious activity no matter what the belief, not just in islam, is a problem and needs to be regulated and controlled. However, just as with warfare, punishing, restricting and intimidating every muslim in Britain, and anywhere else in the world is just fucked up, backwards thinking!

Racial Tension?

19.09.2009 12:06

What racial tension do we have in Birmingham? The only tension we have in Birmingham is a bunch thick cunts called EDL visitin us on a regular basis makin us get off our arses on a Saturday afternoon when we'd rather be doin somethin else. The vast majority of Brummies do not have a problem with each other whatever race or religion. It's nice to hear Newport is the same.

How many more times? The EDL is not a 'racialist' or a 'fasicsticalistic' organization.

We just want to demonstrate against 'extremism' of all kinds. On Sundays we go for walks in the parks with our girlfriends and listen to Cliff Richard.

I, personally, REALLY enjoy the the taste of curry.

Stop destroying the freedom of speech for the kind and gentle people at our demonstrations.

Yes, that's it. You are the 'fascists' - the 'anti fascist fascists' (see what I did there!).

Save the white race!
Stop all the islam churches!
Stop the anti-fascist-fascists!
