Paul Schnee, ZOA: “If people who regularly commit these kinds of atrocities are not savages then what are they exactly?”

The courageous and singular Paul Schnee is the President of the Zionist Organization of America, Los Angeles Chapter. He has penned a brilliant opinion piece supporting our pro-Israel ads running on the San Francisco buses (and soon to run in other cities) and exposing the cowardly and weak for condemning them.

Pity no American newspaper saw fit to publish this perspective. The enemedia ran scores of articles on our ads, all damning, all critical – much like the anti-semitic worldview that has seized the day. Gd bless Paul Schnee. It is a brilliant take-down.

"Op-Ed: Don’t Throw Pamela Geller Under the Bus (Ads)"  Paul Schnee, Israel National News, August 28, 2012

If not for their double standards, the people so worried about insulting jihadists, as described below, would have no standards at all.

It’s a story that no mainstream Jewish newspaper has covered in
depth, but which other members of the media have seized to make a heroic
Jew and Israel look bad.

I’m talking about the pro-Israel ad
campaign of the American Freedom Defense Initiative (AFDI), which began
running ads this month in New York and San Francisco.

In an unprecedented move, public officials and media are going out of their way to repudiate the messages of the advertisements and to malign Pamela Geller, director of the AFDI.

In San Francisco, the AFDI advertisements say:

• “In any war between the civilized man and the savage, support the civilized man. Support Israel. Defeat jihad.”

In New York, the AFDI advertisements say:

• *19,250 deadly Islamic attacks since 9/11/01. *And counting. It’s not Islamophobia, it’s Islamorealism.”

The
AFDI is correct in pointing out that the wars in the Middle East are
essentially a clash between civilization and barbarism, between the
freedom-loving West and anti-Western, theocratic, and brutal Islamist
supremacist regimes that seek to destroy Israel and murder innocent
civilians, both Jews and Muslims alike. 

In its advertisement, the
AFDI does not hold culpable all of Islam or all Muslims; it calls
attention to acts of savagery committed in the name of jihad, the
Islamic term for the “struggle” to spread Islam globally by violence and
subjugation. (Islamist apologetics deceptively define jihad as “inner
struggle.”)

Islamic supremacists subjugate women, gleefully hang homosexuals, persecute non-Muslim minorities and glorify terrorist killers.

Ms.
Geller correctly points out that a war on innocent civilians is
savagery, and this has been the modus operandi of the Islamists
supremacists in their assaults against Israel and the Jews, including
the Islamic terrorist organization Hamas and also the Palestinian
Authority, which poses as “moderate” while providing diplomatic cover
for the terrorists.

The countless assaults against innocent
civilians, such as the most recent suicide bombing of women and children
on a bus in Bulgaria, and the incessant, indiscriminate rocket attacks
on Southern Israel from Gaza are acts of savagery. This should be
obvious and give cause for alarm even to the slowest of minds.

How is it possible for any sentient person or organization to align themselves with such grotesque people?

But some have. The city of San Francisco has decided to place a disclaimer beside the AFDI’s advertisements, essentially enforcing Sharia Law that bans criticism of Islam. It reads:

• "SFMTA Policy Prohibits Discrimination Based On National Origin, Religion and Other Characteristics and Condemns Statements That Describe Any Group As Savages."

If people who regularly commit these kinds of atrocities are not savages, then what are they exactly?

By posting such a notice beside pro-Israel ads, but remaining silent on anti-Israel ads, San Francisco
has clearly taken a side against Israel, America's greatest ally in the
Middle East, and offers tacit support to the genocidal Islamic
terrorists whose undiminished goal is Israel’s extinction.

The San Francisco Metro Transit Authority should take note of Thomas Mann's observation that, ‘tolerance is a crime when applied to evil.' "
In
New York, Town Supervisor Paul Feiner announced that he wanted
Metro-North to warn passengers that the ads could be upsetting and don’t
represent Metro-North’s views or that of the community. However, the
silence of public officials was deafening when pro-Arab groups ran advertisements maligning Israel and falsely accusing Israel of ethnic cleansing.

If
it were not for double standards, Mr. Feiner would not have any
standards at all. Mr. Feiner has essentially taken sides and provided
sanction for terrorist attacks against Jews. He did not speak up for
Israel and the Jews, but said, “[Muslims] should not be discriminated
against. The posters encourage hatred, discrimination and do not help
the efforts to fight hate crimes.” Really?

The next time an
Islamic bomber tries to blow up Times Square, to whom will Mr. Feiner's
concern against discrimination be directed?

By implying that all Muslims support jihad, both the city of San Francisco and Mr. Feiner are the ones who actually characterized all Muslims as jihadists.

But
I’m sure I speak for many members of the public when I thank Ms. Geller
for her efforts in courageously defying political correctness and
speaking the truth about the nature of both Israel and America’s
religiously inspired enemies, who are glad to tell us how much they hate
us and want to destroy us. They don't even bother to hide it.

There
is no moral equivalency between those who wish to destroy the state of
Israel and those trying to defend her, None at all! The San Francisco Metro Transit Authority should take note of Thomas Mann's observation that, ‘tolerance is a crime when applied to evil.' "

The
inability, or worse still the cold reluctance, of officials to
distinguish between the fire department and the fire is the hallmark of
the appeaser. On behalf of the ZOA Los Angeles chapter, I call upon the
city of San Francisco to remove the bigoted disclaimer next to the
American Freedom Defense Initiative’s advertisement and urge N.Y. Town
Supervisor Feiner to direct his outrage where it really belongs: against
Islamic attacks of savagery committed all too frequently against
America and her great intrepid ally, Israel–or hasn't he noticed.

Friedrich Schiller (1759–1805): “Mit der Dummheit kämpfen Götter selbst vergebens.” (“Against stupidity the gods themselves contend in vain.”) Beside inspiring a great sci-fi novel by Isaac Asimov, this quote neatly describes the frustration many even moderately informed people feel when confronted with the obtuse blindness of so- called liberals and especially Jewish liberals who recognize only one sin, that of being “judgmental.” My admiration is boundless for those like Ms. Geller and Mr. Schnee who fight the good fight trying to awaken the comatose fools but I myself don’t have the spit for it. I simply write them off as lost and pray for a miracle in November.

If someone is offended by the characterization of jihad terrorists as savages, then they reveal themselves as depraved.
