"Get Those FBI Anti-Terrorism Ads Back Up!" Breitbart, July 25, 2013
Story continues below advertisement
Last week in Seattle, the FBI was running a terrorism awareness
campaign featuring bus ads depicting photos of sixteen of the world’s
Most Wanted Terrorists. This was a publicity campaign sponsored by the
Joint Terrorism Task Force for the U.S. Department of State’s Rewards
for Justice (RFJ) program. The RFJ program offers up to $25 million for
information that helps stop terrorism.
However, Muslim groups and the politicians in their pockets actually
succeeded in having the ad campaign removed; as such, we are going to
have to do the FBI’s job for them. At my organization, the American
Freedom Defense Initiative (AFDI), we’re taking it upon ourselves to
alert the public to the nature and magnitude of the terror threat. We’re
putting the ads back up.The RFJ program has been quite successful: through it, the State
Department’s Bureau of Diplomatic Security has paid over $125 million to
more than 80 people who offered genuine information that led to jihadis
being jailed and prevented acts of jihadist terror. This program was
instrumental in leading to the arrest of jihadist Ramzi Yousef, who is now in prison for his role in the 1993 World Trade Center jihad bombing. This program saves lives.It’s hard to believe that this program bothered anyone, but it
did. Jeff Siddiqui, the founder of American Muslims of Puget Sound
claimed that Seattle-area Muslims called him, saying the Most Wanted
Terrorists ad campaign made them “concerned for their safety.”
He said the ad would be just as bad if the government had posted an ad
on buses with the faces of people from a single ethnic group and the
caption “the face of murders in the United States.”
Muslim groups wailed and dhimmi Congressman Jim McDermott (D-WA) did
their bidding. He wrote to the FBI demanding that they pull the
campaign, which he claimed was “offensive to Muslims and ethnic minorities” and encouraged “racial and religious profiling.”
McDermott claimed that the FBI’s Most Wanted Terrorists list included
people of other races and “associations with other religions and
causes,” but “their faces are missing from this campaign.”
He said that the ad would “likely only serve to exacerbate the
disturbing trend against Middle Eastern, South Asian and Muslim
Americans.”
What trend? In reality, FBI statistics show that Jews
are significantly more likely to be targets of hate crimes than
Muslims. And the ad was not unfair: of the FBI’s 32 Most Wanted
Terrorists, only two are not Muslims.
So if he wanted the FBI to leave the Muslims off the Most Wanted
Terrorists ad, he’d first have to convince Muslims to stop committing
terror attacks in the name of Islam. But instead, McDermott and Siddiqui
succeeded in getting the FBI to remove the ads.
That’s right: the FBI caved to this Sharia demand (do not offend
Muslims). The FBI is putting Americans at risk by submitting to the
outrageous demands of Islamic supremacists. It is not the fault of the
FBI that the world's most dangerous terrorists are jihadists. That is
the reality. You cannot avoid the consequences of avoiding reality.
Capturing these mass murderers is significantly more important than
propping up the fictional narrative of victimhood and the nonsensical
hurt feelings. People are being slaughtered every day in jihad attacks.
Cliff Kincaid of Accuracy in Media points out: “McDermott has a long history of pandering to radical Muslim groups and received
the public-official-of-the-year award from the Seattle chapter of the
Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) in 2004. CAIR is an
affiliate of the Muslim Brotherhood, and is part of a lawsuit against
the NSA’s surveillance of foreign terrorist organizations and their
American agents.”
“The dropping of the ads can only reduce the possibility of some of these global terrorists being brought to justice,” he added.
We’re going to run the same ad on Seattle buses. We are going to make
it happen. We have submitted the ads to Seattle transit that the FBI
ran.

Pamela Geller spoke in my shul in Edison NJ and was extremely well received. SHE WAS WELL SPOKEN AND VERY INTELLIGENT. . What PAMELA AND I SHOULD DO is find Muslims that will join with Jews to fight the POLISH GOVERNMNET WHICH HAS FORBIDDEN SLAUGHTERING ACCORDING TO KOSHER PRACTICE. Let us go to POLAND AND PROTEST.

Here in TX there is a poster of the state’s ten most wanted child support evaders. Eight are men and only one of those is black. In order for any of them to raise a protest similar to the terrorists they would need to have enablers at their disposal, beck, and call. You know, just like the terrorists have.

Mr. Rosenberg, Poland is a sovereign country and can past the laws they want. Kosher and Muslim killing of animals is very cruel. If you want kosher in Poland import it from Israel for example.
