LONDON (AP) - Violent clashes between anti-Islam demonstrators and Muslim counter-protesters in English cities are worrying the government, with one British minister comparing the disturbances to 1930s-era fascist incitement. The violence that has hit Luton, Birmingham and London in the last few months has involved a loose collection of far-right groups—such as the previously unknown English Defense League—on one side and anti-fascist organizations and Muslim youth on the other.

The “Fascists” are the Muslims, as long as we have that straight!

Violent clashes between anti-Islam demonstrators and anti-Western, anti-white, anti-British, anti-Christian Muslim counter-protesters.

I helped the author reflect the facts in the title.

*******

How do Islamofascists and anti-fascists line up on the same side? Talk about Orwellian.

The liberal dhimmis are aghast at the possibility of offending their masters.

British media have traced recent clashes to Luton, which in March was the site of a small but widely covered protest against the British Army. Bearded Islamists picketed a homecoming parade for British soldiers returning from Iraq, holding up signs accusing the men of being "butchers" and "baby-killers."

The Brits are waking up. When they stand up for themselves and their country, their government sides with the invaders. I predict this is only getting started. I have long wondered when the British people would begin to resist.

The author's phrasing exposes his agenda, that of a typical left wing hack.

It's a sad sign of the social disintegration of this once-great empire that Englishmen who speak up about Islam's war against western civilization can only find a voice in "extremist" groups - if you don't want patriotic dissent to be hijacked by radicals, give these people a legitimate voice to represent them!

Of course, those who speak out against Islamofacism are branded "Racists." Sound familiar?

There is no hope for that country...Read an article on F R yesterday about a man being arrested for protecting himself in his own home from a burglar..Lots of those stories from U.K. They are having too many people killed with knives now they want a law against having a knife...(too stupid to put criminals in jail, easier to arrest people protecting themselves in their homes..)
