I am deeply humbled by Sid Dinerstein’s piece in Newsmax magazine. He talks about my work and my new Amazon bestseller, FATWA: Hunted in America.
The Courage of Pamela Geller

By Sid Dinerstein, Newsmax, Friday, 27 Oct 2017:
Story continues below advertisementFatwa! The first time I read that word it was applied to Salman Rushdie, author of the “Satanic Verses.” A Fatwa is the Islamic equivalent of an old wild west “Wanted: Dead or Alive” poster. Rushdie literally went into hiding. Then came 9/11, 2001. It changed all of us. Pamela Geller was leading a happy, carefree life in Manhattan. 9/11 changed her more than most. It wasn’t a specific death. It was the realization of how good life in America could be and how hard others were working to destroy that life. Pamela Geller embraced her calling. She created her blog: “Atlas Shrugged,” which quickly became a top thirty go to site nationally. Her brand: Everything you wanted to know about the new clash of civilizations; Islam vs. the West, 365/24/7. She probed the depths of the pro-Islam, anti-American feeling 9/11 unleashed in America. Radical Islam immediately planned a 9/11 Ground Zero mosque. They bought a building that had been hit by the landing gear of one of the ill-fated airliners. To them that made the site holy. Mayor Bloomberg led the Liberals in signing on to the mosque. He never counted on Pamela Geller. It was grass roots all the way; a DVD, (of which I have a signed copy), advertising, petitions, word of mouth. The reason there is no Ground Zero mosque can be summarized in two words: Pamela Geller.Pamela Geller is a free speech hawk. Islam does not look kindly upon those who would subject Mohammed to Western style commentary. The right answer should have been Mohammed cartoons in every major newspaper on the same day. Instead our media goes blank. For Pamela Geller it meant a challenge. She organized the Mohammed cartoon contest in Garland, Texas, with the Netherland’s Geert Wilders as her “judge.” Islamic terrorists attacked the event. Bullets flew. Arrests were made. (And the Republican Party of Palm Beach County had to replace Geert Wilders as our Lobsterfest key note speaker. Geert was unhurt but uninsurable).
Pamela Geller is banned in the United Kingdom — literally and totally. She has a Fatwa, and just released a book with that title. To the media she is an Islamophobe. She has to fight to run ads and to keep her social media accounts open. She has 24/7 bodyguard protection; all one hundred pounds of her. Pamela Geller is a Profile In Courage.Sid Dinerstein is a former chairman of the Palm Beach County Republican Party. He founded JBS Associates, a 600-person financial service company, and currently combines politics and business with Niger Innis in Inclusive Elections LLC, a firm that brings urban electorate voters to the GOP. He is the author of “Adults Only: For Those Who Love Their Country More Than Their Party.” For more of his reports, Go Here Now.

She certainly qualifies as a heroin and “a profile in courage.” From my perspective, she is a justifiable “islamophobe”. Although my own Islamophobia may predate even 9-11, as it has long been clear to me that the middle east was and is where the maniacs that claim to be Muslim’s initially practiced their horrendous conduct and belief system, even before the terrible act that brought down our Twin Towers, I commend Pamela for raising the awareness that Islam means to destroy everything that we consider acceptable and appropriate in the free world. She is the light at the end of the tunnel. Her public persona has made her a champion of those who are willing to recognize the reality constituting the threat of Islam to western society. She has taken to task those leaders who claim that those who express their concern for the Jihad that is promoted by Islam is irrational Islamophobia. These leaders are the fools of our time. They turn their back on the reality and use “political correctness” to accuse those who rightfully fear Islam as being prejudiced and Islamophobic, when the truth is that the radical acceptance of Islam has proved itself to be a morbid happening wherever it is practiced. Everyday we hear and see the Islamic speakers cite their belief system and promise the destruction of all of us non-Muslims. The patent reality stands out, and yet the media refuses to recognize it and accuses those who perceive the reality of what we here in the free world are facing bias and bigoted. They invite their own slaughter. I am very proud to say that I am an Islamophobe and I look to people like Pamela as being righteous and relevant in their commentary. We must defeat the sickness that emanates from this morbid and irreverent belief system that is Islam.

It sure is great when there is someone willing to stand up for those who have been falsely vilified by the main stream media.

Pam can do more than the senators & congressman can ever do. All 100 lbs. of her! And it’s is a WOMAN doing this. I say drain the swamp and put Pam in their place. Look what one woman can do that all those foolish men swore an oath to do but hasn’t the gumption to do. I too am looking forward to reading your book soon. Thank you Pam

Thank you Pamela Geller for, among other things, being in the forefront of exposing the horrors faced by Christians in their homelands and their own homes. She does not attempt to whitewash the truth, or cater to the corrupted sensibilities of those who do. God bless and keep Pamela Geller.

Hey libturd Mohammed porkers, all 100 lbs. of Pam is doing more for our country than you ever will. Pam comes to warn and help open the eyes of the ignorant. You guy’s try to seperate and destroy. Islam is of Satan, his bible is the Ka’hran, his soldiers are the muslims. Mohammed is one of many anti-Christ. Mohammed comes to kill, steal and destroy. Jesus Christ come to us to teach love. Quite the contrast I would say, how about you?

May our God of Peace, Compassion, Charity, Tolerance, and Understanding Bless and Keep Ms. Pamela Geller for all the days of her long and prosperous life. She is a voice of reason against an evil, violent, primitive culture initiated by an irrationally macho, mercilessly brutal 7th century conqueror and pedophile. Whatever good is written into the human soul is erased by [i]slam. There is no room for good, for kindness, for love. Ms. Geller has dedicated her life to warning us of the metastasizing cancer of islam in the contemporary world.
“Islam is as dangerous in a man as rabies in a dog.” ~ Sir Winston Churchill
“The fundamental doctrine of the Christian religion is the extirpation of hatred from the human heart. It forbids the exercise of it, even towards enemies.” ~ President John Quincy Adams
“The precept of the koran is perpetual war against all who deny that mohammed is the prophet of God.” “In the 7th century of the Christian era, a wandering arab spread desolation and delusion over an extensive portion of the earth. He declared undistinguishing and exterminating war as part of his religion.” ~ John Quincy Adams
“You can’t find one verse in the New Testament that says, ‘Kill unbelievers.’ Jesus, the founder of our faith, didn’t kill anybody. He was crucified, but you look in the koran, you can find 35 sword verses. [m]uhammad was nothing but a bloodthirsty warlord who beheaded 600 Jews who would not follow him into battle.” ~ Pastor Robert Jeffrees of the First Baptist Church in Dallas
“Show me just what Muhammad brought that was new, and there you will find things only evil and inhuman, such as his command to spread by the sword the faith he preached.” ~ Manuel II Palaiologos – 14th century Byzantine emperor
“Islam was not a torch, as has been claimed, but an extinguisher. Conceived in a barbarous brain for the use of a barbarous people, it was – and it remains – incapable of adapting itself to civilization. Wherever it has dominated, it has broken the impulse towards progress and checked the evolution of society.” ~ André Servier
