	Antifascistisk Aktion
		AFA was founded in Denmark in 1992 after a bomb killing of a young anti-racist.
		AFA formed partly in order to be prepared to react against similar future events, partly because the autonomous movement that AFA originated from needed a stronger and more continuous organization.
		AFA refuse any attempts to dialogue with organized racists because any such dialog can be nothing else than advertisement and a platform for their ‘ideas’.

	Italy: Sicily, Anti-fascist coalition blocks neo Nazis
		On the second of November fascists succeeded in preventing the neo-nazi Forza Nouva from marching in Catania, Sicily's second city.
		This action forced the police to set up two major roadblocks - one at Villa Bellini in front of the anti-fascists and the other two blocks away at Piazza Umberto where the nazis were forced to stop.
		What their allies in the BNP would think of this is anybody's guess!) The fascist demonstration was also protesting against the right to choose, probably explaining one reason so few women were there.

	Anti-Fascist Action - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Anti-Fascist Action (or AFA) is a British left-wing organisation founded in 1986.
		It opposed groups it viewed as fascist in Britain such as the National Front and British National Party amongst others.
		Other anti-fascists including elements from the Militant Tendency stewards group and "renegade" AFA groups not ready to abandon the physical confrontation of their opponents on the streets, continue a militant anti-fascist tradition under the banner of "No Platform".

	The Voice of the Turtle
		Fascist ideas, in themselves, are not especially interesting, and the attempts to delineate the detailed structure and content of fascist ideology seem to give fascism a static or timeless character, which it certainly lacked.
		And in government fascists are only able to promote the cause of big capital, with the result that the regime can only seek to displace the contradiction between the constitutents it claims to represent and the interests it in fact serves through racist persecutions, foreign expansion and war.
		Dave further opposes studies that concentrate on fascist ideology because he believes the ideas themselves are of no interest or value, yet his condemnation is too brutal, and the study of fascist ideology (and of its lingering appeal) remains of enormous interest and vital importance.

		During the attack, one fascist Gerhard Kaindl, secretary of the DL, was severely hurt with a knife and subsequently died.
		Fascist Terror And The State's Complicity Since 1990, fascists and racists have killed at least 75 people - immigrants, refugees, homeless, disabled and young anti-fascists - in Germany; thousands of attacks and firebombings have been aimed particularly at immigrants and refugees as well as against the small Jewish community.
		Despite the unabated wave of racist and fascist murders and terror the German government, state forces and media have declared so-called "organized crime by foreigners", immigrants, refugees, leftists and all others who stand up against racism and fascism to be the "inner enemy", threatening the order and security of the German state.

		While violent or militant anti-fascism does occur the movement can also be non-violent; being an anti-fascist is not necessarily to "fight" fascism with violence, and many antifa activists consider it to be no better than the fascists themselves.
		An anti-fascist is one who opposes fascism, and/or engages in anti-fascist direct action.
		The term antifa is a commonly used word for anti-fascist action.

	Alert!: Anti-fascist success against nazis
		This event is still commemorated in Apeldoorn but the value of the commemoration of the Nazi atrocity was thrown into question when the city council unhesitatingly gave the NVU demonstration the green light.
		AFA had already warned the council about the nazis but it had refused to listen.
		On that occasion, AFA decided that holding a counter-demonstration would lead to its being scapegoated by a local authority that had failed to prevent the nazis from fouling its streets.

		AFA started the autumn with a successful action in London, where they prevented hundreds of nazi skinheads from getting to a Blood and Honour gig where the band Skrewdriver was playing.
		AFA members have been known to make annoying phone calls to local fascists and nazi skins at odd hours of the morning.
		AFA is an alternative to mainstream/liberal groups, most of which won't even recognize the existence of fascism in Britain.

		The ANL has latterly faced four main challenges to its campaigning: the attempts of the far-right to ditch their image of fascist or racist politics; criticism of its demands for the suppression or censorship of far-right groups; criticisms of its populist or popular front orientation; and criticisms of its relationship with the Socialist Workers Party.
		The ANL response to this criticism derives from the argument that, because fascist groups ultimately seek to curtail democracy and suppress democratic rights (even if they initially seek to obtain power through democratic means), the curtailment of their democratic rights can be justified as a means of protecting those of the broader citizenry.
		Advocates of militant anti-fascism, such as those associated with Anti-Fascist Action see the ANL (and its successor Unite Against Fascism) as a liberal anti-fascist organisation - that is, one that essentially defends the status quo against fascism, using the language and strategies of mainstream liberal democratic politics.

		AFA was formed to end the isolation and draw in larger numbers to the anti-fascist movement.
		AFA's objective was to clear the fascists out of working class areas and create the space for a progressive alternative to be built.
		AFA had developed international contacts with many groups, especially in Europe and North America, and is actively involved in ending the isolation of militant anti-fascist groups - this task being more urgent since the German state's attempts to criminalise and destroy the militants from Gottingen.

	ENGLAND: A VIEW FROM VALHALLA
		AFA has never called on the police to take action against the fascists, there is no substitute for an anti-fascist movement, but if these raids cause extra problems for the fascists then I won't be shedding any tears.
		Not surprisingly, when the AFA contingent arrived, they found out the real reason they had been asked to come to the gig was because at the previous gig the ANL put on, the fash turned up and one of their supporters was stabbed.
		An AFA delegation approached the landlord of one of the 'problem' pubs and were suprised when he gave them a copy of a leaflet he had been giving out asking punters not to sing racist songs.

	AFA: Right-wing populist Fortuyn spearheads right-wing election gains
		Equally, conspiracy theories were doing the rounds, including one claiming that the split between Fortuyn and LN was deliberately engineered by Jan Nagel to ensure that LN was no longer seen as right-wing and that both Fortuyn and LN could mount attacks on the governing coalition from the left as well as from the right.
		Also, they were strongly challenged by Anti-Fascist Action, whose activists systematically tore down their posters, distributed tens of thousands of anti-fascist (and anti-Fortuyn) leaflets and put advertisements in local newspapers, calling on people not to vote fascist.
		Although Fortuyn is clearly different from fascists like Haider in Austria and Dewinter in Belgium, he uses the same populist tactics and campaign themes as the Freedom Party and the Vlaams Blok.

	German Fascism on the Rise
		But while deploring fascist excesses, the capitalists still use the fascist attacks to anchor more deeply in the "soul of the people" the big lie that asylum seekers are the cause of the embarrassing racist/nationalist violence.
		The fascist actions in Rudolstadt last August and Rostock in September, however, show that the fascists are coordinating their activities.
		Ultimately, the struggle against the fascists can only be successful to the extent that it brings to bear the social weight of the organized proletariat, involving the masses of workers throughout the country.

		We were the only group willing to tackle the fascists physically, and the only group trying to undercut their support in places they regarded as their traditional strongholds.
		The fascists might regard him as some kind of nationalist super-hero, but he was just another bully who didn’t like it when the odds weren’t heavily in his favour.

	1985-2001: Anti-Fascist Action (AFA) \| libcom.org
		AFA was re- launched in London in 1989, and in 1992 a national meeting was held in London to sort out a new national structure.
		The re-launch of AFA was as a militant 'united front' - an alliance of different political tendencies - orientated towards the working class, to reclaim working class areas then claimed by fascists as their own.
		In 1988, for instance, Liverpool AFA took a full coach and minibus - over 80 people - to the event, though on that occasion they were stopped on the outskirts of York and escorted all the way back to Liverpool by the police (the same happened to a coach from Newcastle).

		AFA is national anti-fascist organization in Britain that was formed in 1985 to, in their own words, "cause maximum disruption to fascist activities".
		Other fascists attempting to flee the vicinity received a beating from AFA militants in the area.
		The key to AFA's success was their intelligence gathering capacity and on that day they "controlled the play, were ahead of the game and made all the decisive moves".

		The fascists and cops were on the receiving end of a severe hiding that effectively ended the BUF as a force on the streets and humiliated the police with trapped units actually surrendering to the victorious anti-fascists.
		AFA members rumbled their "national meeting" and the bewildered fash, far from being hostile witnesses, readily divulged their personal details to their interrogators before being chased back to their virtual Valhalla.
		The night was a massive success with a huge turnout of AFA supporters new and old from around the country and abroad.

		AFA were, and remain, committed to direct confrontation with the fascists.
		Citing the involvement of groups such as Red Action, Workers Power and Class War, (though strangely he omits to mention the involvement of the Direct Action Movement/Solidarity Federation in the founding of AFA)), Copsey makes it clear that AFA hails from the far-Left, and that it excludes opportunists such as the SWP and ARA.

		AFA was happy to be of service to steward a gig for our old mate Mensi and the boys and after he had told a lonesome bonehead to remove his Skrewdriver T-shirt or leave the gig, we thought we were in for a quiet night once Mr.
		AFA is not tasked and does not have to win the political war by itself, as the BNP seem to think.

	ANTI-FASCIST ACTION : Encyclopedia Entry
		AFA's physical confrontation approach was more visible than their ideological work, and their tactics were criticised for their squadism and use of violence.
		AFA was launched in London in 1985 by members of Red Action and the Direct Action Movement.
		AFA members accused ANL of failing to directly confront fascists, of allying with moderates who were complicit in racism, and of being a vanguardist front for the Socialist Workers Party (SWP).

		Orthodox christians commemorate dead 40 days after death, but fascist filth is weak in arithmetics and this was really only 39th day.
		Some 150- 200 nazis gathered behind police encirclement, half of whom were boneheads and other street fighters, spitting hate under banners such as "Ermolov instead of Kadirov" (Ermolov was Czar's brutal general in Siberia and Caucasus, Kadirov is current Putin's goon in Chechnya) and demanding cleansing Moscow from Chechnyans.
		Only 15 persons gathered to go against fascists in open air, these sorry numbers reflect current balance of power between anti-fascists and nazis in streets Moscow.

	Fighting Racism & Fascism : Melbourne Indymedia
		Fascists are different because there aim is not to win any argument but rather to drive there opponents off the streets and terrorise the population.
		Where there is reasonable evidence that fascists are operating behind a racist organisation to build there strength or where a racist organisation is connected with physical attacks we also support a policy of denying such an organisation opportunities to organise.
		The actions of these militias and the white supremacist attitude of many white rescuers of the state added gasoline to the fire of the undeclared war between all who were desperate and left to their own devices.

		AFA was determined to prevent the launch of this racist group - if the ICP was allowed to hold their meeting without serious opposition the group could quickly become a focus for the so far disorganized racists active in Dublin and nation-wide.
		Following AFA's action in stopping the ICP meeting our tactics were discussed throughout the media as the protest made front page news in four national newspapers and TV and radio bulletins throughout the country.
		AFA is the only group with the potential to seriously meet this challenge as we are the only anti-racist group in Ireland with a policy of No Platform For Fascists.

		This made us a visible threat to some people and because many fascists are in city council, activities of police and courts are hardly surprising.
