An anti-Islam demonstration organised by the Australian Defence League took place in Brisbane’s King George Square on Saturday, October 6 2011. The small group of demonstrators was quickly overwhelmed by a growing group of left-wing activists who organised a counter protest. The Australian Defence League is an anti-Islam movement that was created after a story, ‘The Great Divide’ aired on 60 Minutes about Islam, and how right-winged extremists are responsible for the failure of multiculturalism in Britain.
