It's allll in the facts. (@Pericles)

Here is a bit more of the report you so selectively used to try to emphasize the EDL were out for a punch up.

//34 people arrested during the day, Amsterdam Police spokesman Rob van der Veen said. It is understood the five were held for not producing identification while on their way to the demonstration.//

Why were the EDL blokes held ? "identification" issue.

Why were the 29 others held? Dare I say:

//Dutch authorities attempted to isolate the protest from anti-fascist groups and supporters of football team Ajax, both of whom urged their members to disrupt the afternoon demonstration.//

The left/muslims promised violence.... and they were true to their word...and some were arrested.

No matter how much you highlight, underline and use bold type in your script, Perilous.. you can't make it match the facts.

But when has the odd contrary fact worried you :)

Facts, Boaz?

>>It's allll in the facts<<

You continue to regurgitate EDL quotes as if they were facts...

>>I find no plausible reason for the EDL article to misrepresent that part of the incident, but hey.. I'm just going on the balance of probabilities here.<<

Do you not see the contradiction here?

On the balance of probabilities, I suspect not.

Dear Pericles.. running out of steam ? :)

The 'facts' I gave you were from YOUR article quotation.. are you now suggesting you offer information in which you have no confidence?

I told you I don't know more than what the EDL site said about who protected them. I see no reason for them to fabricate that..if you can think of a reason..by all means share it.

Come to think of it....you don't have much faith in any document you don't like ...do you ?

What a funny little possum you are, Boaz, to be sure.

>>The 'facts' I gave you were from YOUR article quotation.. are you now suggesting you offer information in which you have no confidence?<<

What "facts" were they, Boaz?

You need to be specific, you know.

If you are not specific, then all you are doing is waving your arms about.

And that's not a good look, you know.
