Anti-Fascists stabbed in London today!

London Activist | 20.06.2010 13:40 | Anti-racism | Migration | Social Struggles

Just heard an update from a friend of mine about the anti-EDL demo today...

Five Anti-Fascists on the way to the demo have been attacked by a large group of Asian youth reacting after the fear spread by the English Defence League.

Two have been taken to hospital with stab wounds, I'll post an update when I get it from my mate down in London.

This shows how much of a danger the EDL asre and why they must be opposed. They organise their demos and it gets the local Asians feeling angry. We need to reach out to Muslims communities and tell them that we show solidarity with them against the EDL.

BE WARY OF POTENTIAL EDL PROPOGANDA (use your critical faculties.)

I have trawled the internet and not been able to find one reference to this beyond the above post.
It may or may not be true, but be wary that the *DLs do watch indymedia and post disinformation.

(I have seen it discussed in depth on their forums.)

They weren't stabbed, one was hit by a bottle the others were just beat up a bit. All are ok, the two in hospital are there for minor cuts and bruising.

And EDL, fuck off back to where you came from. This is your fault for causing tension in the communities.
