CAUGHT: EDL Recycles Anti-Semitic Nazi Propaganda

This is a cartoon recently posted on the English Defence League (EDL) London Division’s Facebook Page, which has over 14,000 fans.


It is used to illustrate the conspiracy theory that graffiti featuring the letters EDL, which has proliferated on mosques and Islamic centres since the murder of Lee Rigby, is not the work of EDL supporters themselves but of Muslims intent on smearing the EDL.

But as the Exposing the English Defence League blog pointed out, the cartoon is in fact an edit of a cartoon popular in neo-Nazi and white supremacist circles, which portrays fascist graffiti on synagogues as part of a Jewish conspiracy to frame the far-right. Here is the original.


The EDL has been known for housing many neo-Nazis and white supremacists within its ranks.
