AARHUS, Denmark (AP) -- More than 80 people were arrested Saturday as protesters hurling rocks and bottles tried to interrupt an anti-Islamic demonstration by far-right groups from across northern Europe, Danish police said.

There were numerous brief scuffles throughout the day as police tried to separate some 2,500 counter-demonstrators from a few hundred people attending the anti-Islamic rally in Aarhus, Denmark's second-largest city.

If you didn’t read the article, you might think it was the anti-Islam protesters doing the violence.

Only the last gasps of a dying civilization. Unless another Charles Martel appears (very unlikely), the snake will eat the rabbit.

10 days ago 90 Muslims wearing body armor attacked a Danish court house where one of their comrades was to be tried for a crime.

That sounds made up, right?

Europe is NOT the muslim’s prime target — America is.

Once America goes, Islam will have conquered the world.

Of course, our congresscritters and state politicians will tell us otherwise.

Give those 80 medals! Martel and civilization should thank them. At least 20% of those fun-loving moozlums want to chop off your head and the heads of your family.

Drudge provided links to two articles before the event that provide a bit of background:

http://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/europe/antifascists-mobilise-against-english-defence-league-summit-in-denmark-7603867.html

http://www.news24.com/World/News/Europe-Terror-fuels-immigration-tensions-20120330

In Europe — as in America — the Muslims are firmly backed by the Left. The front line for the Left in Europe is an element generally described as the “Antifa” (short for Antifascists). These Antifa in Europe resemble the OWS types on steroids: Highly organized and not a bit afraid to use violence. My suspicion that the current Administration is using the European Antifa as a model for what it hopes the OWS crowd to become.

Surprise, Surprise! In England, at least, the police show themselves far more willing to arrest those on the right (e.g., the EDL) than the Antifa, when the two sides meet in the streets.

The problem is, from what I read, the EDL can hardly hold a major rally without being dogged by the very aggressive Antifas.

Shades of things to come in this country?
