LONDON — British police on Wednesday arrested two people as they tried to quell anti-Islamist disorder following the brutal murder in London of a man, believed to be a soldier.

...

In the hours following the attack, around 250 supporters of the anti-Islamist English Defence League (EDL) gathered at Woolwich Arsenal train station.

The group hurled bottles and became involved in minor skirmishes with the police, but later dispersed without any arrests being reported.

EDL leader Tommy Robinson was among the crowd and explained: "They're chopping our soldiers' heads off. This is Islam. That's what we've seen today...

"Our next generation are being taught through schools that Islam is a religion of peace.

"It's not. It never has been. What you saw today is Islam," he added. "Everyone's had enough."

“The group hurled bottles and became involved in minor skirmishes with the police”

I love the EDL’s cultural preservation message, but they have to weed out the chicanery from their ranks. The English public is ready to side with an anti-Islamist message, but not necessarily with the EDL.

I think when soldiers start getting their heads cut off, usual aversion to chicanery might just go out of the window. There have apparently been two Mosque attacks.

Britain is winding up towards another Breivik.

While 250 isn't all that many.

I would suspect 100X more are just as mad.

Maybe they should have pinned this on the IRA.

That was some brutal counter terrorist warfare there.

The Black and Tans.

I have a feeling this will stir up some real trouble. Boris Johnson didn’t waste any time calling it terrorism.

They don’t need another Breivik. They need people like those in these three events:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Serbian_Revolution

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greek_War_of_Independence

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barbary_War

islam is all about chopping heads!!!! Defeat islam! Expel islam!

“”Our next generation are being taught through schools that Islam is a religion of peace.”

Allahu Akbar.

The two words you hear before a muslim kills you.

I would rather have an EDL than some Dhmmi spewing “ Islam is a Religion of Peace”

Islam is pure evil. Those terrorists that executed that soldier are the rule....not the exception

“Britain is winding up towards another Breivik.”

It’s inevitable if the European elites continue to ignore the wishes of their people. The overwhelming majority of Europeans want an end to mass immigration and the multicultural madness. Instead they get more of the same and often get arrested for stating their opposition to the elites traitorous actions. When, not if, vigilantism occurs the Left will have blood on their hands.

As we all know, the Left will blame the blood shed on the Right.

For good cop, bad cop to work, you need the bad cop. Another more moderate group will fill the good cop role...or at least it should.
