Nazis or just hooligans?

I'm not a fan of this group. They seem like a bunch of football hooligan yobs. However, I don't see how being against Islam makes you a fascist.

But you see how being anti-semitic makes you a fascist?
By all means oppose religious extremism, or even religion, but to single one religion out and claim it's worse than others is pathetic. They are all as dangerous as each other.

Timing?

It's very likely that they don't have the nous to understand that they are being manipulated by extreme right-wing organisations attempting to incite racial tension and encourage Islamophobia.

Bunch of wannabes

Basically a bunch of wannabes who havn't got the bottle to take on a real firm, so instead march around city centres, mobbed up, shouting abuse at people.
EDL - bunch of fucking time wasters.

Daily Mail are scum but they usually have the best pictures

And the Israel flag was weird. I assume it was just to wind up Muslims, not because they are pro-Israel in any way. I imagine most of them are anti-semitic.

and then i thought they were just a massive bunch of slighty-fascist dickwads.
won't stop me knocking seven shades of shit out of you when you come to Manchester...

Problem with EDL
06.09.2009 19:58
The EDL won't recognise this, they just drunkingly sing "God save the queen" and "Inger-land" and wonder why people in this country - black, asian and white - start throwing bottles at them. If the EDL honestly wants to confront Militant/Political Islam, then they should re-address how they are fighting it. You cannot fight a reactionary religion with equally reactionary politics.

Well said anarchist

As for confronting militant islam, then simply confront militant religion. The christian anti-abortionists are as bad as islamic suicide bombers anyday for example.
