Pamela Geller, WND: The media’s Shariah enforcement

7

Here's my column that appeared today in WND — I wrote it yesterday, before the UK banned us in a supreme act of unparalleled cowardice. Anyone who applauds this, no matter how vehemently they may disagree with my work,  is in for the rudest of awakenings. This not about Geller; this is about freedom. Pure and simple.

The media's Shariah enforcement
Exclusive: Pamela Geller on reporters' lies about attempt to ban her from U.K.

A visit to the U.K. by my colleague Robert Spencer and I to pay our
respects to victims of jihad on Armed Forces Day has turned into an
international incident. And why?

Story continues below advertisement

Because there is an unspoken adherence to the Shariah descending over the West. As I noted in my Monday column, Robert Spencer and I are scheduled
to join other members of the President’s Council of the international
human rights coalition Stop Islamization of Nations (SION) – the English
Defence League leaders Tommy Robinson and Kevin Carroll and Stop
Islamisation of Europe (SIOE) leader Anders Gravers – on June 29 for a
Memorial for Lee Rigby in Woolwich. Rigby was the British soldier who
was beheaded by Islamic jihadists in Woolwich on May 22.

But now the left-fascist group Hope Not Hate and Labour MP Keith Vaz,
chairman of the Home Affairs select committee, are trying to get us
banned from entering the country.

Imagine: The country of the Magna Carta Libertatum, or the Great
Charter of the Liberties of England, would consider banning two human
rights activists whose body of work is founded on the freedom of speech,
freedom of conscience and individual rights. The Magna Carta led to the
rule of constitutional law. It was the model for the legal structure of
the American colonies.

My organizations stand for the very things the British fought and
died for in World War II and decades later in Afghanistan and Iraq.
After their great sacrifices, the U.K. is going to ban freedom?

The British media are on a jihad against free speech – apoplectic as
they are at the thought that I, as well as Spencer, Gravers, Robinson
and Carroll, would be laying flowers in Woolwich on Armed Forces Day in
memory of the young dad and soldier Rigby. Despite the endless column
inches that have been devoted to this manufactured controversy, not one
member of the British media has asked me for comment – some, like Kevin
Rawlinson, go so far as to lie about it: “Neither Ms. Geller nor Mr.
Spencer responded to requests for comment.”

It is funny that you call yourself a ‘human rights activist.’ For you, does ‘human’ rights activist’ mean only ‘people from west’ or ‘people on this earth?’ If it is latter then, all the people who follow all the religions are on this earth should come under your ‘human activist’ scope!! Whether it is ‘Westernization of Nations’ or ‘Islamization of Nations’, without knowing cultural background or traditions influenced by historical circumstances & perspectives of the respective nations on other nations’ culture in modern media era, there will always be confrontation. And whether you want to promote peace for ‘Westernization of Nations’ or stand against ‘Islamization of Nations’ or peace against ‘Islamization of Nations’ or stand against ‘Westernization of Nations’ – it will be considered as narrow scope of your ‘human rights activist’ role. So, grow up and be clear about your role! Just coz some sections in one religion or country doesn’t do good things, it should not be considered as reflection of the entire religion or country or community. I agree with UK banning you from entering! Peace!

Soooo, let me get this straight, while proposing that not all Muslims adhere to radicalism (I agree) you want to squelch any speech that is offensive to Islam?
No one is judging Islam, we judge results. Do those adherents of Islam value the same values that make a country free and properous . . . sometimes yes and sometimes no. The problem is a far higher percentage of Muslims are in the no category than the general population. And it’s not Christians, Hindus or Buddhists that are chopping soldiers heads on in the street. I heard a statistic after the subway bombings that 30% of British Muslims felt the bombings were justified!

A predictable leftist progressive narrative of utter nonsense. A human rights activists fights for the rights of all people. Including Muslims. The fact that Muslims follow a despicable political ideology is precisely why a human rights activist will encourage Muslims to be welcomed and encouraged to adopt civilized codes of conduct. Be it Christian, Judaism, Buddhism… even atheism.
Pamela Gellar is quite clear about her role. She supports Muslims who wish to leave Islam if they choose. She supports Muslims who flee from honour killings or threats of violence. She supports Muslims right not to get forced female genital mutilation. She supports Muslims who wish to speak out against violent Jihad… which seems to be mostly directed against other Muslims.
What is your role? Are you a Muslim? Or a morally challenged Dhimmi?
If you are a Muslim, join with us to fight against Islamic Jihad and suprematism.
