FOX Business TV Appearance: Geller on the Dove Church Qur’an Burning

122

My position on the Koran burning in Florida by a
whacko church aligned with the vile anti-military, anti-semitic Westboro
Church that defiles the funerals of our honored fallen soldiers:

1. This church's plan to burn the Qur'an does a grave disservice to the cause of spreading awareness
about Islamic teachings and the threat that Sharia poses to our way of
life.

2. The burning of books is wrong in principle: the
antidote to bad speech is not censorship or book-burning, but more speech. Open
discussion. Give-and-take. And the truth will out. There is no justification for
burning books.

Story continues below advertisement

3. If Americans are free and not under Sharia, then the
church can do this if it wants, and their freedom and rights should be
protected. Islamic supremacists should not be allowed a victory for their
violent intimidation — if these people want to burn a book, they're free to do
so.

4. If they were burning a Bible, no one would be threatening violence
against them.

5. Petraeus is wrong to say this will threaten American
troops. This is based on the assumption that they are fighting us because we are
doing things they don't like. Actually they are fighting us because of
imperatives within the Islamic faith. They will never like us unless we convert
to Islam or submit to Islamic rule. If we stop doing things they dislike, where
will we draw the line? How far will Sharia advance in the U.S., with Americans
afraid to stop its advance for fear of offending Muslims and stirring them up to
violence? The Muslim Students Association is already pushing for halal
cafeterias, segregated dorms, segregated gym facilities on campus. This is
incompatible with American freedom. We have to draw the line.

Tonight Eric Bolling had me on with the two of the named co-conspirators in the largest Hamas funding trial in American history, Safaa Zarzour, Secretary General of the Muslim Brotherhood front The Islamic Society of North America, and Hussam Ayloush of the Muslim Brotherhood front CAIR-Los Angeles.

Joining these bandits were Bolling's panel guests with Mark Levine, Joey Jackson, Jack Burman and Curtis Sliwa.

Hussam Ayloush, a delightful fellow with whom Robert Spencer has had several pleasant
exchanges, here says that mosques and the Qur'an are off
limits to the FBI.

In other words, despite incidents such as this, and
this, and
this, and
despite the fact that
hatred and Islamic supremacism are taught in a number of mosques in the
U.S.
, he wants law enforcement officials to turn a blind eye to the
possibility of jihadist activity in mosques. And meanwhile, he also wants to
take the Qur'an off the table — that is, he wants no investigation of the
stated motives and goals of the jihad terrorists themselves. Apparently he would
prefer that we remain in the dark about them.
Which side is he on again?

6. Although
I oppose this venture, this is another challenge to the U.S. to stand up for
free speech and free expression. Popular speech needs no protection. As such all
Americans should support the right of the church to proceed, even if they
dislike what they're doing.

We are NOT Europe….yet. At least I didn’t think so. THEY are telling us what to do through General Petraeus. That is VERY very scary. The one poll I saw showed that 75% of Americans thought that the book burning should be PREVENTED if it might hurt American troops. 75% of Americans are too stupid to even know what freedom is and they certainly don’t deserve it anymore. And that includes the dhimmi General. Maybe HE has Byzantine ‘rules of engagement’ we are supposed to still have a constitution.

It’s sad that it is being done by people who claim to be doing it as Christians. There’s enough bias against Christianity in the United States without having His name and His reputation dragged through the mud by those who in their blindness act in ways that have absolutely nothing to do with His way or His truth.
Having said that, I have to wonder how much of the reaction against the burning of the Koran is out of fear of what Muslims might do and how much is because it’s simply wrong.

He knows full well that the troops are under more danger with him at the helm than Americans burning the enemies instruction book to kill. that book of the damned also demands not only to rape, but to flog and stone the VICTIM..to kill the non-muslims and instill fear worldwide. I say not only burn the book of the damned, but to very publically in large numbers bury a pig at every location they want to ‘worship’, spill pigs blood where they live work and breed.. that aughta send them home to mecca

Burn flags or burn books…
Maybe it takes a “hate” group such as the Westboro church and their kissin’ cousin Dove church to laser light the heart of the issue.
As freedom of speech relates to the freedom to say what is not popular, burning a book is protected activity.
If the Dove church pastor wants to burn bound pieces of paper that contain words that the Islamic “true believers” say are sacred words, THAT is a freedom that MUST be protected, otherwise, Pamela’s and Robert’s “truth” speech will definitely be put in jeopardy.
Just as the neo-nazis burning of the USA flag was not a provocative act (were you provoked to violent action?) few years ago, the burning of ANY book is not a provocative action.
However, the words in the Qur’an are definitely provocative.
The pastor seems to simply be making a statement about the words IN the Qur’an by simply burn pages that contain words… THAT freedom to make a statement MUST be protected, however unpopular, repugnant and odious it may be.

You know, I considered doing the same this coming Sept. 11th. Fortunately, I remembered that I had always opposed book burning no matter what the book contained. As vile and despicable as the Koran is, my feelings should not supersede a principle I have upheld since I can remember.
As for Muslims worldwide getting their panties in a bunch over this thing, they have proven one point the pastor makes; many Muslims lack emotional maturity and immediately go into a violent rage over the slightest offense to their precious cult.

Taking this issue further, the Ground Zero monument and the burning of books are not matters of freedom of expression, but of ethics. There are whole studies that deal in ethics, and even businesses deal constantly with ethics. This is a gray area usually not covered by law, but which can make or break a movement, cause strife, cause peace, or any number of other outcomes.
Is it ethical to burn bibles or flags or Qur’ans? No! Is it ethical to build a Shinto shrine next to Pearl Harbour, or build a Serbian Church in Srebrenica, or a Mosque at Ground Zero … NO!
There are rights, and then there are ethics. So far, Muslims demand right, but behave with no ethics.

Burning the Koran only gets rid of the evidence.
People need to learn what is IN the damned thing.
Sura 9:5, for example.
And 9:29.
The doofus “preacher” would do more to make people aware of the threat from orthodox Islam by reading the suras, not vaporizing them.
Don’t destroy the evidence of their crimes!

How is it that millions of illiterate, 3rd world types even know about this? Are they psychic when it comes to korans being set on fire? Most these people don’t even have electricity, let alone computers or cable TV. Obviously they are being told this by who knows who, whipping them up into their usual frenzy.
It would be interesting to find out how the islamic world heard about this one little church in America. FOX News? How did this become a world wide story anyhow?

Duh, the Qurans being burned are people’s private property, and who cares what they do with them? Publishers routinely destroy copies of unsold books. As a symbolic act, burning the evil Quran rocks, especially if it is accompanied by an Exorcist-style Satanic possession ritual. It gives Muslims worldwide an opportunity to stink themselves up, never mind their long long history of destroying Christian Bibles when they get the chance. A mystical awe of the Quran is counterproductive to the forces of freedom, sorry.

I’m always waiting for the other shoe to drop but for some reason it is still getting a shine.
The shoe drop for me is when the hell are we going to spend sometime talking about the intolerance that is the Islamic religion. There is no multiculturalism in the Islamic world, there is no political correctness in the Islamic, there is only Islam and yet Judao Christian values are always being held to a different standard—why is that? Is it because of the threats of violence that are projected towards anyone who dares to speak out against Islam? Why does Geert Wilders have bodyguards,why does Robert Spencer have bodyguards? why does Pamela Geller have bodyguards? and host of former Muslims as well (apostates) have bodyguards?

All of Pam’s points are good, but especially #5.
We cannot live our lives with the assumption that we are doing something to cause our enemy to hate us and commit acts of violence against us.
The result could include arguing that fighting back causes the enemy to attack us more, therefore the best choice is appeasement.
I am really starting to wonder about Petraeus. It may be true that the Koran burning will make is job more difficult because he will have to explain the concept of free expression to his barbaric Afghani counterparts, or it may be that finds the whole thing embarrassing. Obviously neither are acceptable reasons or excuses for his statements.

It is EXTREMELY SHOCKING that a US General (who takes an oath “to defend the Constitution”) AND the US State Department both feel compelled to denounce an act by patriotic Americans TO EXERCISE THEIR CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHTS. WTF does the State Dept have to do WITH AMERICANS IN AMERICA? Aren’t they tasked with dealings with “foreign countries”? Of course, to the Obamunists, real Americans ARE foreigners, so I guess that fits.
This is a very worrying sign of a pre-dhimmified attitude by the General, whom I have defended on these pages before. He is much too smart to confuse cause and effect like this, but I will help him out like a 3d grader: “General Petraeus, Muslims are not attacking your troops in Afghanistan because some Americans in Florida are burning a koran. No, some Americans in Florida are burning a koran because Muslims have been butchering Americans for ~40 years. Got it?”
Gee, do you think that medical team slaughtered in Afghanistan a few weeks ago had also provoked their own murders? I’m sure the Florida koran-burning was foremost in the killers’ minds…

When Ground Zero mosque builders decide to stop building the Mosque, I’ll back down. When Muslims around the world come to respect other religions and people’s desire to practice that religion wherever they live, I’ll back down. When Muslims decide to respect women, give up slaves and stop practicing bestiality and pedophilia that the Koran teaches them, I’ll back down. Until then I feel Dove Outreach is well within their rights to burn the Koran.
If I didn’t have to work on friday night, I would drive up to photograph the event myself. I’m curious if anything will happen that night. I know that 90 people from St. Petersburg, FL are planning to go up and protest the burning that night so I imagine it will be loud and crowded.
On a personal note, I have bought a copy of the Koran and will begin to read the thing so I am more well informed about what is inside of it. My own brother is one of those with blinders on and uses all the same false arguments that people make trying to paint Islam as “religion of peace”. Its pretty sad how a well educated person like my own brother has been suckered into this false belief. The Mainstream media has really bamboozled people and it will take a bit for them to loose those blinders.
I, myself didn’t start to wake up to this until the GZ Mosque became more public. I decided to do more research into Imam Rauf and his organization and find this site and many others. From talking with others around me, 90% are against this thing being built on principle and when they learn more about what’s going on, they are adamant it not be built for the reasons we list here.

Well spoken Pam, despite these segments being so limited for time. I think you nailed it on your point about the MSA, where do we draw the line at capitulating for Islam? It is acceptable to make allowances for other cultures so long as they do the same for us in their countries and more importantly, that they are not doing it in order to supplant our culture.
But that is exactly what the muslims are doing, trying to destroy our culture while they replace it with there own. It is blatantly obvious to those of us who’ve been paying attention. No other culture/religion/race is here trying to impose their way of life on us except Islam. So for this reason I personally believe the time for accommodating Islam is over. It’s time to stand up for our freedoms and values has come because muslims are trying to eliminate them.
No to halal meat, no to segregation of genders in our institutions, no to anything muslims want us to swallow. If they don’t like it, they can leave, there’s too much Islam in the world already and we need some nations to be Islam free. Yes to exercising the right of freedom of speech and expression. So I fully support the church’s action though I may not agree with it.
Anyone catch that jihadists veiled threat at the end? Muslims love to trot out their “well you do whatever you like but do you really want to piss off 1.6 billion muslims?” That statement alone proved that it’s not just the ‘extremists’ that have a problem with the Quran burning, ALL muslims have a problem with it. I say good, let’s see them do something about it so that our empty-headed fools on the left/in the media/our elites, get a much-needed wake-up call.
Burning the Quran is not a provocation, but a political act of freedom against tyranny. It is an act of courage and defiance against all those who would seek to enslave us and those cowards and ‘useful idiots’ who are helping them along. This is equivalent to the Draw Mohammad Day contest-it was sticking a finger in the eyes of those who threaten us with death and destruction if we don’t obey their demands like good little dhimmi slaves. It is free people standing up in defense of their values and their civilization against bullying, thuggery and a fascist, totalitarian, medieval death cult bent on global conquest.

Thanks for spelling that out. When everyone who tries to expose political Islam has to have bodyguards, shouldn’t that tell our leaders something about the caliber of the people they are letting into the country? Some of them pose a great danger to the American people, but I’m afraid our government long ago stopped doing their main job, protecting the people and territory of the U.S. Another example is the refusal of the U.S. govt. to defend our borders. How do we make them do their jobs? What are we paying our taxes for?

The pastor has made his point already that if ANYTHING is remotely done to come against their precious “religion”, muzzies get all in an uproar, and threaten death and all the other ridiculous things that make them so adored worldwide. All he had to do was SAY he’s planning on burning Qu’rans, and it turns muzzies into raving lunatics. The guy at the end of the clip obviously made his point, too…in essence, if you do this, you’re going to make ALL muzzies mad. Even though I don’t agree with the pastor’s method, I say BURN ‘EM. BURN those suckers! Let’s see smoke from that fire from space!!!

The burning of any books is provocative and irresponsible. But where is the ACLU defending this preacher’s constitutional rights, where is the separation of church and state, religious freedom, free speech. Why is not every conversation started with “He has every right to burn books” or “we are not questioning his free speech rights? When a Radical Islamist wants to erect a monument to Muslims on ground zero we prostate ourselves to the Constitution, the Flag and American pie. But let some crazy Christin step out of line and we are set to bring down the Hammer. An Islamophobe can be defined as someone who opposes Islam but it can also be defined as someone so fearful they are unwilling to speak out against them or worse yet aids them so as not to be destroyed by them….first.

Just a couple of points:
1. Burning the Koran is not the type of “book burning” as though it were Tom Sawyer. No one is being prevented from reading the text by the act of burning it, nor are publishers, retailers and libraries being intimidated. It is, although ridiculous, purely symbolic.
2. Jones is not the same as Rauf mainly because he does not have access to hundreds of millions in dubious foreign funds and ties to actual terrorists.

Personally, I’m all for burning the koran. Who gives a rip what muslims think about it? If muslims here in the US don’t like it, there’s the door, no one’s keeping you here. Maybe muslims would be more accepting if a koran was placed into a beaker of urine and then called art.

I think the church should go ahead and burn their Korans if for no other reason than that so many whining, screaming big-mouths have decided to jump into the fray to offer their unsolicited opinions about it. They don’t seem to see the irony in that just recently they defended the building of the GZ Mosque with the argument “it might not be diplomatic but it is their right to do it.” Now that argument is not to be heard from these same people about the Koran burning event. (And no one has remarked on the propriety of Gen. Petraeus offering his opinion, as a military officer, on a civilian event occurring stateside. Chilling effect anyone?)
I think any ideology that elevates a book, even any COPY of that book (i.e. even the cheapo paperback versions that the church will be burning) to such a high level that it is worth rioting and killing for needs to be exposed for what it is. Why has NO ONE on the left remarked at the utter insanity of the idea of people rioting and killing over this tiny event? Why have no commentators on the left thought, “gosh, that is really an overreaction,” or told the muslims to “get over it” — one of their favorite phrases when used against the right, of course.
The mantra needs to be “It’s just a book, get over it.”

Petreus comments are completely wrong. It is his timid “don’t shoot back if the Taliban uses alleged civilians as human shields” tactics that are endangering the troops. This, and his comments about Israel endagering American troops makes me believe that “General Betray-Us” may have been a good description of him after all.
Interestingly, the Muslim reaction to the book burning just confirms the point that the pastor wanted to make about the violent nature of Islam.

I am not sure what you wanted Pamela to do! On the other hand, General Petraeus does have some legitimate concerns about the feelings of the civilian population in Afghanistan. If they got too angry at our troops they could start helping the Taliban kill them. I agree that most of what is in the Koran, the Sira, and the Hadith is not good. However, burning the Koran will just increase the hatred, hide what is written in the three religious texts, and make it harder in the long run to solve the problems that exist within Islam in the way it relates to non-Muslims. Islam must adapt to the 21st century and purge the violence and supremism, or it will not survive in our modern world. Hatred, incitement, and violence will never provide the solutions to solve the problem. Peaceful public discussions of the three Islamic texts to bring the problems out in the open, along with comparison and contrasting of the Bible and these texts, will provide a solution. Getting Muslims to acknowledge what is wrong with Islam and correcting it, is not appeasement. Neither is disagreeing with a hateful act, which is what burning the Koran would be. Don’t you want to be part of the solution? If yes, then keep fighting, but fight smart. We should try to make Muslims into real Patriotic Americans, but if they will not assimilate, then they should be sent back to where they came from.

Petraeus is not wrong when he says this will put extra pressure on American troops. Not to mention the civilians who are working in the war zones. Doctors, nurses, engineers, cops and teachers.
His job is to protect his soldiers.
Images of this burning will be distributed by every jihadi website, pamphlet, newspaper and will be on every jihadi channel showing America as hating Islam. It goes totally against the tactics deployed by Petraeus. His counter insurgency methods etc…
The people he is trying to turn away from the Taliban are also illiterate primitive and ignorant people. Not Americans or American muslims expected to exist within a liberty based society. They are there, we are there among them. It isn’t about muslims in the USA.
One can disagree with that tactic but that is what the boys and girls are risking their lives applying.
I do know many disagree and I also see even the point made by the minister. Muslims need to be confronted and need to be told in their words. I can totally see that argument. The Chinese say that only poison can fight off poison. True.
But here in this instance, this interferes with the work of our finest. As it also interferes with the anti mosque movement. I also cannot see how this is serving the memory of the fallen on 911. But that is subjective I admit.
The media is all over it, probably will cause the very military and NGO deaths it claims to warn against and this is already the backdrop to the anti mosque debate.

All I heard today on Fox news was the story of the Koran burning.. Over &Over. Personally I think it’s a distraction that will accomplish absolutely nothing. Why play right into the hands of the Islamic apologists by giving them fuel for their fire (no pun intended). Instead of the media covering the Rally at ground zero on 9/11…what do you think they’ll be reporting on? Some loony pastor, who has stolen the spotlight by a stupid ill conceived protest. As for the General…. Why is anyone surprised? After the fort Hood murders the brass were more worried about offending Muslims, then comforting the innocent victims. Absolutely disgusted that this Country grovels at the feet of our oil masters with no shame.

They way you destroy relics of Satanism is you burn them. It may be a book, an icon, or any sort of symbol used in a satanic ritual that gets burned. That particular group believes that Islam is satanic and therefore its book of writings should be burned to destroy it. That is their right to believe and to express there belief. They are not banning it, just burning copies of it.
Personally, I would rather see that everyone reads the Quran. How else are they going to see that it is non-sensical jabberwacky full of errors of all types? Only a fool could believe in it as being scripture and one would have to assume that God is stupid if he is alledged to have directly written it. Read it please, see the root of the intolerance, the root of the hate, and the root of kill the infidel in jihad.
It should be pointed out that muslims seems to worship the Quran. Even those who cannot read run their fingers over its letters thinking this will bring them blessing. Scholarly criticism of the Quran, like that which has been applied to the Bible for centuries, is just now beginning. More and more evidence is showing that it is inaccurate from early copies to todays copies. Even muslim scholars have recently declared over 600 hadiths are spurious. Nevertheless, muslims worship the quran and that is idolatry.
Finally, christian missionaries who have served in the middle east for years are reporting that masses of muslims are converting. They say they have never seen anything like what is happening now. And that, I believe,is what has the muslim knickers in a knot. Remember too, that it is the great meeting going on in Mecca of all the muslim leaders who put out these orders of protest and act like raging maniacs… That was true of the cartoon rampage as well. It is order. It is not accidental. It is always the result of Ramadam meetings that go on in Mecca.

What I find funny (as in funny-peculiar, not funny-ha-ha) is that these same dhimmi elites who are up in arms over this Quran book-burning thing not only didn’t say a peep in protest when the Brooklyn Museum had an exhibit which showed the Virgin Mary being smeared with elephant dung, or when a so-called “artist” dunked an image of Christ in urine, but they were lecturing us all about “freedom of expression.” Whatever one may think of this Quran-burning business, the hypocrisy of those on the Left is sickening, nauseating, obscene and disgusting all the same.

Islam isn’t in America to be equal to any other faith, but to become dominant. The Koran … should be the highest authority in America, and Islam the only accepted religion on earth.
***
Everything we need to know is in the Koran. We don’t need to look somewhere else.
— Omar M. Ahmad, chairman of CAIR, the mainsteam Muslim advocacy group, quoted in the San Ramon Valley Herald, July 4, 1998.
Note: I think it would be better if Churches & synagogues & other faith leaders, start educating the non-educated about what is in the Koran that is not acceptable & guide them to read online & give them references & explanation & theology.
America should stand up if they believe in God they should never fear.
Pamela you are doing a good job, don’t give up!

Darlene, are you saying that masses of Muslims are converting to Christianity? If so, I assume they are doing so discreetly.

I am going to burn a hard copy of the Koran in my backyard on 9/11. It will be a small affair – just me, my dog, and the squirrels.

Interesting how Hussam Aylush shot himself in the foot, again:
First he said we can’t blame all Muslims for the tiny minority of extremists, and right after he told us that 1.5 gazillion Muslims would become terrorists if this Florida pastor burns a few dirty books.
Classic Islamo duplicity at work here…..

I was surprised not to here Ms. Geller saying: Well we agree that this is a sensitive issue, but you must understand that these people have been driven to act like this by all these muslims burning flags, insulting women, shooting our soldiers and threatening us with shariah. They are not guilty, they cannot help themselves, they are so very upset.
As to the sensitivity issue: of course it is not the same:
– One is offending islamic supremacists
– The other is offending mere kuffars
How can these be considered equitable?

Pam, I have to disagree with you on this one. Good for the pastor!! It is about time someone had the courage to burn the Mein Kemp story of the pedophile fraud. This whole incident will serve to educate the brainwashed American people to the true nature of Mo. Let the rabid response of the mohammedans illustrate what they are really all about. Let the American people observe the hypocracy of the MSM and the liberal elites.
Maybe General Petreaus doesn’t realize it, but the Muslims are trying to kill our troops already, they don’t need this as an excuse.
