MDL members racially abuse blacks

Black Left | 07.10.2010 17:35

Here are screenshots of racist abuse directed towards a black EDL member.

All the chaps giving the racist abuse are known members of the Muslim Defence League. The very same Muslim Defence League who the UAF have decided to side with in their campaign to oppose racism.

Why oppose racism by siding with racists?

There are many more examples which I can post if needs be. I didn't want to fill the site up with images.

But, here is the proof that the MDL need opposing as they are nothing more than a bunch of racists.

I actually posted a comment on their wall asking why the MDL allow racists in their group and I was then banned. I guess their admins don't want to listen to criticism of racism?

Both the MDL and the EDL are regressive organisations. There is a need for the left tobuild bridges with progressive nuslims to oppose both the jihadiloons and the EDL fascists. A plague on both their houses!

Is this news?

I thought Indymedia was supposed to be a news resource for grass roots actions, not a bulletin board for people to post miscellaneous grievances? Do the editorial guidelines (

http://publish.indymedia.org.uk/en/static/editorial.html) not state the following?:-

"Articles and/or comments may be hidden for the following reasons:-"

"Non-news: posts which are clearly purely comment, opinion or rants unrelated to a recent event or action etc."

This post is not related to any event or action so isn't news. Yes, so there are some nasty racist wankers in the MDL, but what has the MDL and the UAF got to do with people who read Indymedia? The UAF and the MDL are both hierarchical organisations so are not allowed to promote themselves on Indymedia, and anarchists would have nothing to do with either of them.

Whoever is posting this is clearly an EDL troll who is stirring some shit, and clutching at straws since their organisation is about to collapse, lol.

Of course it is news.

Folks are quick to post up links exposing the EDL as racist so the same should be done to the MDL.

People need to realise that the MDL are just as bad as the EDL.

I for one am grateful, I was going to stand alongside the MDL and UAF at Leicester but now I won't be attending now I've seen that the MDL are a racist, intolerrant group of people.

Unless of course an actual non-racist group is organising a counter-protest against both groups. . .

MDL RACIST THUGS

I heard a couple of anti-fascists where attacked by some MDL supporters at Bradford. The UAF were shouting "but we're on your side",. The MDL supporters didn't care.

Has anyone here seen the vid on youtube exposing a MDL facebook admin as a NAZI supporter?

Does it matter?
