Muslim protesters caused outrage yesterday by abusing soldiers returning from Afghanistan - as three more brave troops were killed fighting the Taliban.

The frontline heroes were branded "murderers", "butchers" and "baby killers" by a group of 40 militants who barracked them while they marched through the streets.

The sickening taunts sparked violent clashes with around 100 right-wing counter-protesters. Mounted police waded in to stop the fighting.

The vile Muslims Against Crusades protesters waved banners with slogans such as "Hitler's henchmen had the same excuse, 'We are just doing our job'" and "What are you dying for? 18K".

Their protests came as military sources said the latest three troops to die perished in the lawless Helmand province.

The disgraceful scenes infuriated onlookers and relatives who had come to pay their respects to the 150 troops from the 1st Battalion Royal Anglian Regiment as they marched through Barking, East London.

Charlene Byrne, whose boyfriend Lance Corporal Scott Hardy, 26, was killed three months ago in Afghanistan, branded the militants "disgusting".

The 24-year-old said: "It's terrible this group has got away with it. Obviously, not everyone supports what's happening in Afghanistan, but they shouldn't take it out on the soldiers." The father of one of the marching troops, who did not wish to be named, added: "It's despicable, it makes me really angry.

"We live in such a tolerant country and all these people want to do is throw it back in our faces." Two arrests were made after MAC clashed with far-right supporters, including members of the English Defence League.

Frozen pork sausages, eggs and ice were thrown at the Muslims.

MAC's Abdu Hafizadeen said: "We are here to condemn the Royal Anglian Regiment. They are the terrorists."

The soldiers, marching with fixed bayonets, ignored the abuse. They recently returned from their third tour of Afghanistan after losing five men.

Two members of the 1st Battalion The Duke of Lancaster's Regiment were shot dead in separate incidents yesterday.

And a Royal Marine died at Selly Oak Hospital in Birmingham after being flown home with wounds sustained in a gun battle against rebels on Sunday.

Task Force Helmand spokesman Lieutenant Colonel James Carr-Smith said: "Their bravery and boldness in the face of danger will not be forgotten.

"They died in the course of their duty, amongst their comrades whilst improving the lives of ordinary Afghans."

**Filtered**.
These people are doing the country a service. whether they agree if the war or not, these people are risking their lives for this country. If they would rather have planes blown up and trains bombed weekly, they can **Filtered** off out of this country as far as im concerned.
Im not racist to people of other countries, but if people come here and complain about how things work, such as putting up england flags in our windows, il gladly help hem pack.

Filthy parasitic extremists scums strike again! And after these people will cry about islamophobia again because sharia isn't adopted by UK or things like that? Pathetic. They are the cause of problems revolving around Islam. They are a disgrace to Islam and human race as a whole. They are few, but cause troubles as if they were most, because they manipulate many people.

These people are obviously in UK just for getting the state help duplicated due to polygamy. While there are actually people who really need this help. Pathetic again.

One solution, rather simple, one way ticket travel with a plane back to home.

@Thriller: have a look at the following.. :lol:

A dig?

I was just showing him what the extremists think of freedom of speech despite benefiting from it.

Edit: I will try to avoid doing digs in future..

From the article, I found a part of it to be quite hillarious:

Frozen pork sausages, eggs and ice were thrown at the Muslims.


Anyway, it's not first time extremists from UK get famous on the news:

I'm curious why UK doesn't destitute them from their nationality and then expell them from UK with banning from UK ground... :?

And outside of UK

That is pretty insulting. An appropriate response to scumbags with a penchant for violent fringe-behaviour.

It was far right nationalists (?) who did it.
Far right nationalists (?) vs muslim extremists.

Also, edited my previous post to show previous record of the "freedom of speech haters".

Why don't moderate muslims take a strong and loud on medias stance to show they strongly oppose this kind of people?
