English Defence League Armed Forces Division attack British Muslims

Anon | 10.08.2010 17:38 | Anti-racism | Repression | Social Struggles | South Coast | World

The English Defence League are a modern ultra Islamophobic and racist organisation with strong links to the British Armed Forces. The English Defence League [EDL] have an EDL Armed Forces Division. The EDL have goaded and attacked British Muslims across the UK. They have placed pig heads on Mosques, pulled off Muslim women's clothes and attacked communities.














The English Defence League have rioted across the UK and have closed down towns and cities in doing so. Many of the EDL members are serving soldiers and the stewards at EDL events are from the MOD.

The EDL have displayed "Support Our Troops" flags on demos and have claimed that they are against "Islamic extremism". What many people don't yet realise is that our serving soldiers are attacking ordinary, innocent, law abiding, British Muslims who are British civilians in the name of the EDL and our Armed Forces.
What they are doing is not much different to Hitlers stormtroopers.

The EDL have encouraged the support of extreme right wing racists ie Dean Smith [Blood and Honour], Wayne Baldwin a neo Nazi pictured with EDL shirts alongside a swastika and others. We have found swastikas, BNP flyers and Israel flags in the facebook photo albums of serving British soldiers. It seems that active and extreme racism and Islamophobia among our troops is not being discouraged but being encouraged.

The UK is ambroiled in illegal wars with Afghanistan and Iraq. "Women's rights" was used as an excuse to invade Afghanistan. "Womens rights" is now being used to gain support against Iran. "Women's rights" is being used by the EDL here in the UK to gain support for the EDL but it is the EDL who are attacking Muslim women and pulling off their clothes. The EDL are attacking British Muslims to stir up Islamophobic hatred and gain support for illegal wars and invasions. The EDL are against pro Palestine demonstraters. The Home Cavalry made death threat gestures at protesters in Knights bridge, London.

There is little support in the UK for the UK / USA wars in Iraq, Afghanistan and the occupation of Palestine by Israel. The British Armed Forces believe that the British public hate and blame them for the wars. We blame the government.

British Muslims believe wrongly that "all white people hate them". Nothing can be further from the truth. Most white people despise the EDL. The EDL have tried to goad and incite Muslim youth and political activists. They want control orders implemented etc on Muslims. The EDL have chanted "Allah, Allah, who the fuck is Allah", "Allah is a peado", "burn down the Mosques" etc on demos to incite people.


The EDL have done nothing to gain public support for our troops, quite the opposite in fact. The EDL have done our troops no favours. The EDL have, worse still, put the photos, names etc of serving soldies on facebook where anyone, teenagers, every Tom Dick Harry and real terrorists can find the information. Stop the EDL. The EDL are a national disgrace and are not supported by the majority of people in the UK.

The pictures here are from the EDL Armed forces Division facebook page which was closed when they realised that half of the facebook profiles were fake. The pictures of soldiers are unfortunately real. We haven't posted most of them here because unlike the EDL we support the decent majority of soldiers, sailors and pilots etc in our Armed Forces.
