Hundreds of far-right sympathisers gathered in Denmark to protest against what they call the Islamasation of Europe today.

The demonstration, which began with a
moment of silence for the seven people who were killed by an
al-Qaeda-inspired gunman in France, was held in Aarhus, Denmark’s second
largest city.

The Danish Defence League – an anti
Muslim movement claiming to have no Neo-Nazi ties – has organised the
‘European Counter-Jihad Meeting’.

It has drawn about 300 participants from several European countries, including Britain, Germany, Poland and Sweden – although there were predictions 4,000 people would be attending.

The aim of the meeting was to set up a Continent-wide alliance of anti-Islamic organisations.

Many demonstrators covered their faces with scarves while others bought placards and posters.

Nearby, a much larger group – about 2,500 people – marched in a counter-demonstration, under the banner ‘Aarhus For Diversity.’

The Danish Defence League is an anti-Muslim movement claiming to have no Neo-Nazis ties. It has drawn participants from several European countries

Police said about half a dozen
counter-demonstrators were detained after they tried to break through
police lines separating them from the anti-Islamic rally.

Among the speakers was Tommy Robinson,
the head of the English Defence League also known as Stephen Yaxley-Lennon, a far-right group that has
staged rowdy protests in Britain, and has inspired smaller offshoots in a
number of European countries

The defence leagues and other
counter-jihadist groups that have sprung up in Europe in recent years to
distance themselves from neo-Nazis and say they don’t accept racism or
anti-Semitism.

Opponents say they are just a new manifestation of xenophobia in Europe, targeting Muslims instead of Jews.

Anders Behring Breivik, the Norwegian
gunman who confessed to slaughtering 77 people last July, cited the
English Defence League and other counter-jihadist groups in the
anti-Muslim manifesto he released before the killing spree. Those groups
have condemned his actions and dismissed him as a lunatic.

Mari Linolkken travelled from Norway
to join the counter-demonstration saying she felt compelled to stand up
against the far-right movement after what her own country had gone
through with Breivik’s attacks.

‘The English Defence League, Danish
Defence League, the Stop Islamisation of Europe — we have experienced
what their ideology means in practice,’ she said.

Just why is it you call people right wing for having the temerity to disagree with the islamification of Europe and to be against Muslim extremism ? These people have every right to protest or is it just Lefty, liberal multiculturalists that can ?

It’s clear which side the violence and attempted repression of free speech came from. I’m not surprised that militant Islamists made themselves as visible and threatening as possible, but really, those self deluding liberals need to take a step back and see the real picture.

Far right extremists? Search youtube for videos of todays events. The only thing “extreme” about them are the Communist gangs that were arrested for trying to attack the people protesting…

The divide will only get worse I fear! Best to head to countries that don’t allow free flow immigration and who stand up for the locals!

‘Far Right Extremists’ you must be having a laugh! These are everyday folk who have had ENOUGH!

– Dave, United Kingdom, 01/4/2012 01:26

So basically they sent the journalists out with the task of taking pictures of the “racist” rally and the most extreme sign they could find to take a picture of was one that said “Peace will dominate the world not Islam?” Unless the other side was holding up their own hate signs I’m not seeing the controversy. Unless someone doesn’t want peace to dominate the world?

This is the start of a fight-back against extremist Muslims. It may falter at times, but, as governments around the world increasingly fail to act to rein in the terrorists, more and more normally peaceful people will say,”Enough is enough” Unfortunately, as this movement grows, it will attract other, more agressive, right-wing extremists, who will use the protets to foment and disseminate thier own radical and violent ideologies. It will, sadly, also impact negatively on millions of more moderate Muslems, who want to live in peace and harmony just like anyone else

“Far right” or average citizens? Me thinks the latter.

– Maureen, MA, USA, 01/4/2012 00:46

Why are the ruling classes who want to change the make-up of Europe with un-mandated mass immigration considered moderate, and those people who want only to preserve the status quo branded extremists?

Without wishing to offend the decent majority of Muslims I would say marching against the imposition of sharia law is no different to protesting against percieved systems of apartheid or human rights abuses or homophobia or marching for women’s rights. You could in fact say it’s like marching for four worthy causes all at once. And by the way, this is coming from a veteran of a lot of left wing protests.
