American Defense League Propagates Lies

The American version of the English Defence League (EDL), the American Defense League (ADL), has been misleading its readers by stirring up hate and inaccurate information from an Islamophobic website.

Like gullible far-right sympathizers, they tend to believe everything they read.


This tactic is propagated by various Islamophobic websites (no surprise) and it involves a little widget that supposedly displays ‘Islamic attacks’.

It's not accurate - The ADL are fear-mongering

LoonWatch documented this case of propaganda and debunked it to be highly inaccurate in a in-depth article. In it, LoonWatch state:
Quote: “Even a cursory glance at TROP’s list of so-called “Islamic terrorist attacks” reveals it to be nothing more than a deeply biased, propagandistic spin-job that conflates: real terrorist attacks, (semi) religious/culturally motivated crimes, attacks on military personnel and attacks by secular groups with no ideological basis in Islam — all in theaters of occupation, civil war and separatist conflict.”
