That's nothing to be proud of. Some of those football hooligan thugs are every bit as bad as the terrorists. Indeed, some of them are a brand of terrorist in their own right. I'm sorry, but all of those National Front blokes turn my stomach quite frankly.

No I'm just saying that Al Qaeda has suicidal impulses. Not all hooligans have NF connections however.

Love, Ivan

The NF had a march over in Sunderland last year supposedly to protest against asylum seekers in the North East. They deliberately timed it to coincide with the end of a large football game. There are about 500-1,000 hard core football hooligans among the Sunderland crowd and the Police believed that the NF were going to join up with them and start a race riot in Seaburn, where some asylum seekers are being housed. Apparently, many of the football hooligans' ringleaders are members of the NF. The Police managed to get a banning order on the march and instead the NF had a rally in front of the main Sunderland Police station.

Apparently, some NF members were shouting slogans like "kill the Pakis" and were directing them at local asian people. The 9/11 attacks were also used by them as justification for their march. They were deliberately trying to direct local people's outrage over the attacks at asylum seekers and local asian people.

Earlier this year a bunch of Newcastle football hooligans had a big street fight with some of their Sunderland counterparts. They actually arranged the venue and the time of the fight in advance by telephone! Two people were killed, several were seriously injured and one was permanently brain damaged. Although, he might have been brain damaged to start off with :-). If we could only find a way to let the NF/football hooligans and al Qaeda nutters fight it out among themselves. They'd probably enjoy the experience!
