Tommy Robinson defends 'bully' who 'waterboarded' Syrian schoolboy; says he is being targeted by 'left-wing fascists' because he is 'white'

Robinson said the teen had simply 'stood up' to the Syrian refugee after he was involved in the gang beating of a young girl

English Defence League leader Tommy Robinson offered his two cents about a Syrian schoolboy being bullied by a schoolmate and defended the perpetrator, according to The Sun.

According to him, the British teen was being blamed by "left-wing fascists" simply because he was "white", and said that the English teen simply "stood up" to the Syrian boy and had not "waterboarded" him which was an exaggeration, like most media outlets have claimed. He also said the victim was involved in the gang beating of a young girl who had to be home-schooled out of fear.

Robinson fumed over the selective sympathy shown by various outlets towards the refugee and his family in a number of videos shared on a fan's Twitter account. According to him, there was no outrage after cases of Muslim students ganging up on British students in various schools.
