POLICE chiefs up and down the country were last night warned to brace them- selves for a winter of race riots.

Forces have been put on alert amid growing concerns about violent clashes between Muslims and far-Right thugs.

Trouble is expected today in central London when hundreds of supporters of the Right-wing English Defence League descend on Trafalgar Square.

More violence is expected when the organisation holds rallies in Manchester, Leeds and Bristol in coming weeks.

The EDL is an umbrella organisation which attracts far-Right activists, neo-Nazis and football hooligans with a shared hatred of “Islamic extremism”.

The organisation sprang up in Luton, Bedfordshire, last March

Note the reason this “right wing extremist” group came into being: “The organisation sprang up in Luton, Bedfordshire, last March in response to the radical Muslims who held a protest denouncing soldiers from the 2nd Battalion Royal Anglian Regiment as “Butchers of Basra”.

And the article ends with: “Meanwhile Muslim cleric Anjem Choudary is fanning the flames. On the website Islam4UK he has posted a video message taunting the EDL, vowing that a Shariah flag will fly over 10 Downing Street. The site also shows a picture of an Islamic flag fluttering on top of Big Ben.”

The article states that the Home Secretary placed a 3-month ban in Luton so the EDL group couldn’t march. I guess the British government still hasn’t learned that appeasement doesn’t work. Maybe out 912 Rally will encourage the EDL to stand strong despite their government’s attempts to keep the peace with groups that want to destroy the UK.

They will be portrayed as evil incarnate by the media. Patriotism and the truth should scare the English media half to death. The issues will get buried under the scathing insults hurled at the messengers.

Yes, and I like the way the anti-muslim groups are the ones being investigated. Sheeesh. When was the last time you saw a soccer-fan put a bomb on a 13 year old retarded girl and send her into a deli?

It they could unite the soccer hooligans into an army it would be the most powerful fighting unit over there...but there is absolutely no way the thugs from Manchester United and Liverpool would agree to be on the same team.

At least in England, I thought for the most part Hooliganism has been eradicated to a large degree, although there was one incident a few weeks ago, (and they were damn lucky there wasn’t one Saturday after Adebayor taunted the Arsenal fans after he scored his goal).

However, it’s really bad in other parts of Europe, especially in Poland.

My advice?
Support the the far-right thugs. Punks, yobs, and hooligans maybe the UK’s last hope.

For practical purposes in the UK, yes. You don't see many Catholic "Asians" -- i.e., Pakistanis.
