It’s sometimes difficult these days to tell the difference between Zionist and neo-Nazi death threats. One clue is when you are told that it is a pity you and your family didn’t die in Auschwitz. Most neo-Nazis deny that Auschwitz was every anything but a comfortable holiday camp whereas Zionists do accept the Holocaust, albeit they twist it into their own narrative (e.g. forgetting that most Jews who perished were anti-Zionist).
But you have to credit the morons of the English Nationalist Alliance-EDL, 5 of whom got themselves beaten up outside Brighton Station last Wednesday. They are a few sandwiches short of a loaf.
The idiots sent me a letter, naturally they don’t have the guts to put their name to it, threatening that if I were to join last Wednesday’s Smash EDO protest then I would ‘get it’. Get what? Brains like them? They don’t say but I suspect they were meaning something like we’ll hide in the bushes to have a pop.
Britain’s fascists don’t like protests against an arms company. Even if it is American. Burning kids alive with the bombs that EDO provides the trigger mechanisms for is much more to their liking. Strange how Zionists and neo-Nazis have so much in common!
And just to emphasise how accurate their intelligence, if that is the right word, they inform me that they know where I live and they even know my movements. Pity then they couldn’t have got the address right! The postcode is wrong, there is no number, they’ve missed out a line of the address. The miracle is that I ever got the letter. As it is it arrived a mere 5 days after the demonstration!
Unfortunately I was unable to go as I had an employment conference in London. No matter, the Unemployed Centre will contribute to the Defence Fund of those arrested.
