English Defence League founder claims he is target of Islamist death threat

[alp227]

The founder of the English Defence League claims he has been warned that his life is in danger if he leads a protest in Luton.

Stephen Lennon, 28, said senior police officers were urging him to leave his home town ahead of the anticipated arrival of thousands of EDL supporters.

The militant anti-Islamist campaigner said he was under police protection. He claimed Bedfordshire police had issued him with an "Osman warning", which are given by the police to advise individuals that they are at serious risk of being killed by someone who appears to have the capability to make good their threat.

Lennon, who routinely wears a bulletproof vest, said the warning followed a text message threatening to kill his children.

1. Islamist extremists and anti-Islam extremists = two sides of the same poisonous coin

2. I agree, LB.

I'd say they deserve each other, but that's cold comfort for the poor beggars caught in their crossfire.

Yes, "Hope Not Hate" is a great organization.
