   Of course, being ‘balanced' journalists, they just have to mention that there is “no suggestion that GI UK endorses or supports violence”.

   Which reminds me of this article in The Guardian, from August 2018;

   "Twitter suspended numerous accounts associated with the rightwing 'western chauvinist' group the Proud Boys on Friday, the eve of the anniversary of the deadly Unite the Right rally in Charlottesville."

   Journalists, in the meantime, were like;

   "News outlets, the Guardian included, have struggled to categorize the group."

     “Two members of the Royal Navy, including one who is due to start work on a Trident nuclear submarine, are members of a far-right group with links to a banned terrorist organisation, the Observer can reveal.”

     The same Identitarian Movement, again.

     "The ‘great replacement’ theory was cited as motivation by the mass shooters in the Christchurch mosque attacks, which killed 51 people in March, and the massacre in El Paso, Texas, earlier this month, in which 22 people died.”

     "The Republican politician Matt Shea connected close allies with a group offering training to young men in 'biblical warfare' that includes how to use knives, pistols and rifles, with lessons based in part on the teachings of a Georgia-based neo-Confederate pastor, emails obtained by the Guardian reveal."

     You're more likely to live near a white supremacist zealot who is preparing for 'race war’ than any flavour of jihadi. The religious extremists you should be worried about are white, in power, and supported by the State.

     While people were dying from white supremacist violence in yet another, and then another mass shooting in the United States, Dutch media was hyping a UN threat assessment report warning about jihadist attacks in the second half of 2019.

     "A neo-Nazi group in northern Italy had sent members to allegedly fight alongside Russia-backed separatists in the Donbass region of Ukraine. Apparently, the group brought some things back from their adventures—including a French-made air-to-air missile that somehow found its way from Qatar into the home of a neo-fascist extremist."

     Weapons, Nazi and other fascist relics, the works.

     "A group of German rightwing extremists compiled a 'death list' of leftwing and pro-refugee targets by accessing police records, then stockpiled weapons and ordered body bags and quicklime to kill and dispose of their victims, German media have reported, citing intelligence sources."

     Investigation had been running since August 2017.
