In light of the issues surrounding the Wootton Bassett march proposed by Islam4UK I thought I might have a look at their site to find out some more info "straight from the horses mouth" as it were.

The site is currently unavailable. Interesting.

So my question is why?

Have they taken down the site themselves, have they been hacked, etc?

Curiouser and Curiouser. Any thoughts?

islam4uk.com

Edit: To add, first the link was "broken", then "permission was denied" now just a blank page...

I was on Facebook last night, looking at all of the groups that are opposed to the march, and it seems that there was a DoS attack on the Islam4UK site, that is why it is down.

Thanks for that!

Good to know. An attack on all fronts including Cyber. I too have been checking FB. It seems something in this Country has finally snapped.

And maybe not before time, too.

I noticed this too...

Lots of broken links.

Could this be a rival hacker or could it be the internet group 'anonymous' or simply a server overload?

??

Hmmm.

Now showing "TEST"

Personally I find that web address offensive to all UK residents who are not of the islamic faith and so the site and any other similar sites should be taken down.

If this march goes ahead then I for one will take a trip down there and if need be...........well you can guess.

@Wolfie.

I will be proud to stand shoulder to shoulder with you.

"Power to the people!" p'haps?

Maybe we could listen to LBC at the same time, eh?

To Chukka and Wolfie;
Having joined most of the groups on Facebook to do with this, I can assure you that there will be a legion of people down there to 'give their opinion' on this!
Options discussed include lining the route of the march with Royal Marines, or soldiers from the regiments of the fatalities, or blockading the route.
I do know one thing, if Islam4UK are, shall we say, unwise enough to actually go through with this, then the result will probably make the Poll Tax riots look like a playground scuffle!

i went on it today i think around 4-5 and it was working so its recently been down.

maybe it cant handle the ammount of vistitors to its site ?

Royspeed,

You are oh so right!

We have a long tradition of non-violent protest, yet we also know when to sharpen the pitchforks, from the Peasants Revolt to the Poll Tax Riots.

I am never sure violence is the answer, yet if our Government refuses to act and defend our way of life, then it is up to us to draw the line in the sand and say enough is enough.

The absolute truth my friend,
our government is not governing anything,
it has done nothing to control the immigration which has seen
us flooded with people who have no grasp of this countries language, history or culture, they get what money they can and go back home richer.

I do not stand here speaking as a member of the BNP, i speak this as a British Muslim, a person who does not want the population of England to stand up and support right wing politicians to push out people along with the extremists.

What our government needs to do is make a stand like the french did, and say "This is a Christian country, Live with it or F right off back to your country. If you want to make it a muslim state, do it politically or with your countries military"

Looks like the site is back up again.

Shame...

Let's not forget rumour on the road suggests a lot of bikers are turning up to honour the soldiers.

You know it's serious when the bikers forget their factions and get together for something like this.

Apparently iv heard that the protest will be cancelled by Islam4UK if the British government holds an enquiry and looks into the Afghan war.
