A lawsuit is challenging New York City Metropolitan Transit Authority's restriction of free speech and sanctioning of Jew-hatred in the city's subways (more here). Our free speech lawsuit against the NYC MTA is finally being heard next week. David Yerushalmi, Robert Muise, Robert Spencer and I will be in the United States courthouse fighting for the protection of free speech.

The issues will include what is the meaning of jihad, along with typical FA issues applicable there: how do they decide what is vs what is not "demeaning"? Where do they draw the line? What objective policy do they follow?
It should be interesting to the media because our team will be drilling only one witness, Jeffrey Rosen of MTA who purportedly makes these decisions.
Last September, the human rights organization American Freedom Defense Initiative (AFDI), of which I am executive director, filed suit against the New York City Metropolitan Transit Authority's restriction of free speech and sanctioning of Jew-hatred in the city's subways. Jew-haters can run ads suggesting that Israel's self-defense is the obstacle to "peace." But our ad calling terrorism against innocent civilians "savage" was banned, deemed "demeaning" and "insulting" to savages. And now, in response to our discovery motion, we have received some highly revealing documents showing how the MTA acted inconsistently and out of political bias in rejecting our ads.
What is so unnerving about the MTA emails is the casual acceptance among MTA staffers of anti-Semitism, their casual acceptance of the anti-Israel ads, and their knee-jerk negative reaction to my simple and true ad.
