Protesters crashed a “peace demonstration” in Brussels, and the description of them ranges from “far right fascists” on MSNBC, to simply anti-immigrant and anti-ISIS demonstrators elsewhere.

It’s really hard to get a grasp of the anti-immigrant crowd in Europe because the left media loves to scream “Racist” so much that I don’t want to trust them on this. On the other hand, Europe certainly has a bloody history of race-based fascist hatred. And it’s exactly events like Brussels and Paris that could inflame such passions.
