English Defense League Uncovered

**EDIT**

Thanks to an anonymous reader, I realized the documentary I've posted here is flagrantly biased, and treats the EDL as badly as the KKK. I certainly am not disregarding the EDL as a racist organization, only the racist members of it. This documentary should be taken with a grain of salt, as it is the only one I can find.

Every organization has its extremists and racists, and should not be defined by them if it is in general a peaceful movement. The extremists must be condemned, not the movement as a whole. That's what this blog is about, after all.

Can't how I feel about this just yet... a right-wing English movement that has exploded onto the streets of London determined to protect Britain from Shariah Law. I support the cause, but I'm not liking the extremism and racism the video unearths. Of course, the video is flagrantly biased against the group, so they've probably purposely focused on the bad aspects of the group while excluding the positive. It's definitely not to be considered the primary source on the EDL.

I saw this coming though. For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. The British government has appeased Muslim radicals in their country for years. Societally speaking, this is the only next logical expectation. It might or might not be 100% morally right, but hey, neither are the jihadis.

I'm curious to know what you all think.

Goof-Up

My bad, folks. The last post on Muslim moderates confronting the extremists in Britain have already been covered here... and I was wrong the second time around.

Here's the first post on the incident. It links to Jihad Watch, which provides some evidence as to just how "moderate" these moderates are, courtesy of their own mosque's website. The title says more than enough: "Prophesy of the Utter Destruction of the Yahood [Jew]":

The Jews shall NEVER have peace of mind or feel secure, or arrive at the level of safety that they seek. This is a dream that shall remain unfulfilled because they do not seek to extend the same to others. All attempts at seeking to facilitate this unattainable peace shall end in failure. They shall continuously be under siege as has been ordained by Allaah as He has said:

“And (remember) when your Lord declared that He would certainly keep on sending against them (i.e. the Jews), till the Day of Resurrection, those who would afflict them with a humiliating torment.” [7:167]

We recognise that this return to grandeur [of the Jews] shall be short lived, by the leave of Allaah (Subhanahu wa ta'ala)...

Their website also contains an article defending Mohammad's stipulation that women are deficient in intellect, also found in the aforementioned link.

Here's the second (and erroneous) post on the same incident.

"Moderate". Huh. So far as it looks like, the only difference between these "moderates" and the extremists is that they don't support terrorism (?).

Islam vs. Terror?

Articles about anti-terrorism Muslims are like smack. I just had to go out and find some more.

Talk about ironic. Remember those Muslim douchebags who crashed the homecoming parade of British soldiers returning from Iraq with shouts of 'baby killers' and likeminded garbage? It seems they've managed to piss off even their own community.

Daily Mail reports:

As the radical Muslims began to set up their stall, they were surrounded by a [Muslim] crowd shouting 'we don't want you here' and 'move on, move on'.

Angry words were exchanged and scuffles broke out between members of both groups, with the extremists shouting 'Shame on you' and 'Get back to your synagogue'.

Nothing less from Islamic fundamentalists. But these Muslim "moderates", if they are to be labeled such, are continuing to surprise me. Hopefully this is not an isolated incident. More hopefully, these "moderates" are not the same ones Islamizing Europe (who are worse than the extremists, if you ask me) and actually just want to get on with their lives.

A Brand New Day

Happy June.

I move that we add another 10 hours to the day. This stupid business of only 24 hours to eat, sleep, work, play, learn, travel, and exercise is old and outdated.

Have some news:

Moderate Muslims chasing off extremists? Holy crap! We've been waiting for this for so long! Oh wait, they're still insane. Never mind.

A Very Merry Iranian Christmas

Ahmadinejad was given a small timeslot on the British television station Channel 4 today to deliver a holiday message alternative to one usually delivered from Queen Elizabeth II. Struck by a sudden onset of yuletide cheer and goodwill, Ahmadinejad wished everyone a 'Merry Christmas' and professed 'Jesus Christ will return, together with one of the children of the revered Messenger of Islam '. Some people are outraged that someone widely seen as a genocidal religious maniac was given a small timeslot on a British television station, but it's all in the name of free speech.

Incidentally, Christians are being hanged in Iran for the blasphemous crime of being Christian.

But that's just Iran's way of saying, "Merry Christmas!"
