    ISLAMIC fundamentalists will march on Wootton Bassett to mourn 100,000 Afghan people ‘murdered by merciless British military’.

    The market town has been chosen by Islam4UK, a platform for the global front Al-Muhajiroun, because of the part it plays in the repatriation of Britain’s fallen service personnel.

    “The group published a statement on its website www.Islam4UK.com, annoucing its plans to march on the town, which honoured 107 troops killed in theatre last year.

    The statement reads: "Islam4UK would like to announce the launch of a momentous march that is scheduled to take place in the following weeks, details of which will be released shortly inshaa'allah (God willing).

    “The destination of this very special event is the small market town of Wootton Bassett, located 6 miles Southwest of Swindon, in northern Wiltshire.

    “Wootton Bassett, is currently famous for its public mourning processions held in memory of British soldiers killed whilst on military service in Afghanistan; coffins containing the dismembered bodies of these soldiers are usually draped in union jack flags and driven through the town centre from RAF Lyneham, as a tribute to their ‘sacrifice'.

    “The proposed march by members of Islam4UK is however of a very different venture, held not in memory of the occupying and merciless British military, but rather the real war dead who have been shunned by the Western media and general public as they were and continue to be horrifically murdered in the name of democracy and freedom - the innocent Muslim men, women and children.”

    Anne Bevis, secretary of Wootton Bassett British Legion, who is responsible for informing residents of repatriation dates, said: "I have heard about the proposed march and would not like to comment until the facts are completely known.

    "I would say however, that I do hope members of this group think long and hard about the rights of the people of Wootton Bassett before going ahead with their proposal.

    "The repatriations have never been political. We turn out to pay our respects to thoses who have lost their lives and support the families who must carry on without them."

    A spokeswoman for Wiltshire Police said: "Wiltshire Police respect the right of the public to partake in peaceful protests, however public safety is of paramount importance to the force and any breach of the law will be dealt with in the appropriate manner."
