Author: Pamela Geller

I neglected to post my column last week in all of the madness that followed the assassination attempt on my colleagues, patriots and me at the Free Speech event in Texas. Read it. DEFENDING THE WEST “Media enraged at my exposure of their cowardice”, Pamela Geller, WND, May 10, 2015 Exclusive: Pamela Geller declares, ‘I…

“Allah is the greatest. His decisions are the greatest. Inshaallah to him we belong and to him we will return. They think that they are killing us and they celebrate this, but we are the ones who will rejoice when Allah grants us the chance to behold them in the flames of an eternal and…

We are not a Muslim country under the sharia. But the left and the RINOs are behaving as though we were. We are free and the majority of Americans mean to stay free — the elites, on the other hand, have other plans for us. Do we mean to be held hostage to the most…

  US Attorney Carmen M. Ortiz stated that the Boston Marathon Bombing “was not a religious crime…it was a political crime” at a press conference on Friday. It is a distinction without a difference. Islam is political. It is a complete system of governance. For a US attorney to say this speaks to her willful…

As divisive and ugly as the media has been towards the victims of the Garland jihad shooting, the country is having a much-needed conversation about the quiet application of Islamic law (sharia) in this country. The prohibition of depictions of Muhammad is Islamic law (blasphemy is punishment by death under the sharia). The American people…

What do Western governments and media think is coming if they appease the jihadis by censoring themselves and pretending that Islam is a religion of peace? Do they think that if they give welfare benefits and preferential treatment to people like these women from Campaign Islam that they will stop supporting the Islamic State and…

Robert Spencer opines on Joseph Farah’s column today at WND. I am humbled by these words. It’s not courage, it’s knowing with every fiber of my being that what we are fighting for is right and true. Freedom. And while my detractors are vicious and cowardly, the Garland free speech shooting has thoroughly exposed these…

Here is a letter to the editor of the Church Times publication in the UK, responding to an article by a Paul Vallely (not, of course, the American general). It responds well to many of the common objections to our free speech event that was subjected to a jihad attack.’ From: Revd Clifford Hall, Supelrative,…

You know what happened in Garland, Texas. Two jihadists wanted to replicate and ramp up what happened in Paris, by murdering scores of patriotic Americans who were standing in defense of free speech. They were met with an utterly authentic response. The media has been waging jihad against the defenders of freedom, primarily me, but…

“I think there needs to be a change to the law where people do not disrespect especially spiritually high people,” Texas Imam Mobasher Ahmed said. “Spiritually high” like who — the jihadists? So there you have — I am not saying it, a Texas imam is. This is the objective, and what I fight against….

Anywhere American law and Islamic law conflict, it’s American law that inevitably has to give way. These demands for special accommodation are everywhere. Hertz, Heinz, Costco, IKEA, Target, Wal-mart, Disneyland,  McDonalds and hundreds of others have all been in the cross-hairs. Islamic demands and the ensuing lawsuits in order to impose sharia (Islamic law). This…

Above: Photo of our free speech event from the cowards at the Daily Mail Bosch Fawstin’s winning cartoon says it all. Send it around. Post it to Facebook and Twitter. Let Americans see what the media is so terrified to show. The cowardly goons and thugs in the media are self-enforcing the sharia restrictions of…

Tom Blumer over at PJM has an extraordinarily good piece on the current debate on freedom in this country in the wake of the attempted jihad massacre  at our free speech event in Garland, Texas. Great stuff, well argued — elemental. “The ‘Hate Speech’ Canard: Ticket to Tyranny,” By Tom Blumer, PJ Media, May 10,…

Watch. this. now. Geert Wilders, a member of the Dutch Parliament, was the keynote speaker at our Muhammad Art Exhibit and Cartoon Contest. He discussed with Sean Hannity his desire to plan to follow up on our event with a “Draw Muhammad” contest in the Dutch Parliament at The Hague. Sean Hannity said last night…

I missed this excellent piece in the American Spectator by Jeffrey Lord, former Reagan White House political director and author. Hart’s defense of freedom is crystal clear — clear as a bell, a liberty bell. And the American people get it. The mail is still pouring into my email box in support of AFDI and…

The “deradicalization” programs are failing in Europe as well. This was, of course, utterly predictable. If we are not addressing the ideology behind this war, and that’s what this is — then failure is to be expected. Reading the writings of Martin Luther King Jr.and the U.S. Constitution to cure jihadism is counter intuitive. It…

The renowned historian Victor Davis Hanson understands the free speech issues that are at stake in the controversy over the Muhammad cartoon contest. He is one of the few. “The First — and a Half — Amendment,” by Victor Davis Hanson, National Review, May 12, 2015: Free speech and artistic and intellectual expression have been…

I just want to take this moment to thank the courageous, singular voices who have stood up for me without making excuses or attacking my character (as did Bret Stephens in today’s pathetic piece, “In Defense of Pamela Geller”). They have understood the quintessentially American philosophy of freedom and individual rights. Kudos and thanks to…

The New Yorker — famous for its cartoons — describes but doesn’t dare show the winning Muhammad cartoon. This epitomizes the cowardice of the mainstream media, and the rot that could end up destroying our free societies if it isn’t addressed. “Pamela Geller and the Anti-Islam Movement,” by David K. Shipler, New Yorker, May 12,…

In the wake of the Garland jihad shooting, Homeland Security Secretary Jeh Johnson has met with the terror group CAIR on “countering violent extremism.” The DHS is meeting with a terror spox to counter terror? Why aren’t they meeting with AFDI? And of course Hamas-CAIR is crowing about it. We have an ISIS fatwa on…

According to the mainstream media, the blogger provoked them and incited them to hack him up. “Blogger Critical of Islam Hacked to Death in India,” Truth Revolt, May 12, 2015 A blogger critical of Islam was hacked to death on Tuesday in India. “Ananta Bijoy Das, 32, was killed Tuesday morning as he left his…

Why is the media still talking about me? What aren’t we talking about what really incited the jihadists? Why isn’t the media talking about the jihadic doctrine? Sharia? The mosque? The FBI should be surveilling this mosque, impounding their phone records. Was anyone from the mosque in contact with Muslim groups in Garland? Was there…

He was at MIT. MIT administrators were no doubt proud that he was there, as it showed their commitment to “diversity.” They would have dismissed concerns about his activities as “Islamophobia.” “Al Qaeda’s Base at MIT,” by Ilya Feoktistov and Charles Jacobs, Breitbart, May 11, 2015 (thanks to The Religion of Peace): At the end…

He believed that if he murdered infidels whom he thought had insulted Muhammad, he would go to heaven. This is a clear and vivid illustration of how jihad attacks are motivated by the texts and teachings of Islam — not by poverty or disaffection or any of the fashionable explanations. “‘We’re here to go to…

Watch the latest video at video.foxnews.com Fox News Video: “Did Pamela Geller provoke Texas attack?” Watch this debate. The Democratic strategist Jessica Tarlov claims that I have said “really offensive things” such as “Obama is a closet Muslim,” which I have NEVER said. This is what they have to do. They have to lie to…

In an extraordinarily lengthy tirade, Cathy Young attacks Robert Spencer and me with lies, libel and smear. Nothing new, I know. But clearly she intended this to be the go-to dossier for every perverted journalist who seeks to impose the sharia restrictions on free speech. But one has to question who fed her this bile…

They’re really getting hysterical. And this speaks volumes: they’re clearly much more threatened by, and much angrier at, me than at the Islamic State (ISIS). I am worse than beheadings, mass slaughter, mass rape, sex slavery, and all the rest. Arab American News has now declared what it thinks is the real enemy: me. What…

This mosque ought to be investigated. Several surveys have shown that 80% of mosques in the U.S. teach hatred of infidels and the necessity to replace the Constitution with sharia. No one cares. How many Ibrahim Simpsons must there be before the mosques are monitored? “Elton Simpson’s slow, isolated descent into ISIS, jihad,” by Sean…

There is much to glean from the latest jihad attack in Garland, Texas. We smoked out a terror network, and much to my surprise, we smoked out the imposters on the right. Rush, Sean Hannity, David French, Mark Levin, Rich Lowry, and Megan Kelly have been brilliant and brave in the defense of freedom against…

I continue to take heat for my support of the Serbs (Christians) in Clinton’s Bosnian misadventure. We were on the wrong side in that war and the consequences of Clinton’s perfidy continue to reverberate in that region. Albanian and Kosovo Muslims are openly attacking another country (Macedonia), creating another potential war zone in Europe. Bill…

I sparred with Judge Jeanine Pirro tonight on her show on FOX. She talks a good talk, but she doesn’t get it. I was surprised. It was the most confusing 10 minutes of the week. Her monologue said one thing (not on this video); her interview with me quite another. Intellectually bipolar. How do these…

This is what shows the jihad terrorists that terrorism works. This is why there will be more jihad terrorism. This is the cowardice that is killing freedom. “Boca Event Featuring Anti-Muslim Speaker Canceled for Safety Reasons,” by Chris Joseph, Broward Palm Beach New Times, May 8, 2015: Not wanting to court danger, the Boca West…

John Nolte of Breitbart and David French of NRO have been briliant, steadfast and unwavering in defense of free speech and defiant against the sharia restrictions on speech. “6 Reasons Pamela Geller’s Muhammad Cartoon Contest Is No Different From Selma,” By John Nolte, May 9, 2015  When you are dealing with the mainstream media, it…

Nadia Azam’s equivocation on evil speaks volumes. How many more supporters of what her stepson did are inside Muslim communities in the U.S.? Is law enforcement too busy with “outreach” activities to try to find out? “Overland Park man is shocked at news of son’s involvement in Garland, Texas, assault,” by Eric Adler, Kansas City…

If we had a responsible media, they would report more of the positive developments in light of the terror attack. The jihadists were the end of the line. By drawing them out, we exposed their network. And because we secured the perimeter, we were able to expose the network without getting anyone killed. The FBI…

In my last few interviews, the enemedia asks for my own posthumous remarks. They are evil. “Pamela Geller, the Woman ISIS Wants Dead,” By Matthew Lysiak, Newsweek, May 8, 2015 After organizing the contest for Prophet Muhammad cartoons, Geller has drawn scorn from all sides. Mike Stone/Reuters After organizing the contest for Prophet Muhammad cartoons…

I often disagree with Dershowitz, but I thank him for having the honesty and clear-sightedness to state this, despite the abuse it is certain to bring his way. “Dershowitz: Geller Critics Should Realize MLK Provoked, Too,” by Greg Richter, Newsmax, May 7, 2015: Critics of Pamela Geller, organizer of the “Draw the Prophet” event in…

Daniel Greenfield skewers the fashionable moral inversion of our time (and especially of this week). “Cartoonists are Controversial and Murderers are Moderate,” by Daniel Greenfield, May 8, 2015: Controversial, intolerant and provocative. Mainstream media outlets broke out these three words to describe the “Draw the Prophet” contest, the American Freedom Defense Initiative and Pamela Geller….

Mark Levin, like Rush, is not fooled by the media’s vicious, unprecedented attacks on me in order to distract from the real threat. Why are they talking about me and my motives, and not the motives of the Texas jihadists and what they are being taught at their mosque? Egypt and Jordan are our allies…

Where do you draw the line once you have submitted? Just Curious. Much thanks to cartoonist Matthew Cothern, who wrote, “Art is the most finite and sincere form of human expression”

The teenage son of a doctor had IED’s and was intending to use them this Sunday coming….. but cartoons are the problem. POLICE swooped and arrested a doctor’s teenage son in Melbourne before bombs were found at his Greenvale home, foiling an “imminent terror plot.” A friend of the arrested teen’s family said they were…

My colleague Robert Spencer explains what’s at stake: “Je Suis Pamela Geller,” by Robert Spencer, FrontPage Mag, May 8, 2015: I was standing next to Pamela Geller just after our American Freedom Defense Initiative/Jihad Watch Muhammad Art Exhibit and Cartoon Contest ended last Sunday in Garland, Texas when one of our security team ran in…

In this thoughtful piece, my friend Caroline Glick shows why the media pile-on blaming me for the jihad attack on our free speech event in Texas is so dangerous for a free society: “Column one: Siding with the victims of aggression,” by Caroline B. Glick, Jerusalem Post, May 7, 2015 (thanks to Scott): Last Sunday,…

The imam to the jihadis claimed he was shocked — that they were gentle fellows. Are we just going to take his word for it? Now that we know he is a liar. There needs to be an investigation of what it is being taught at that mosque. Are we supposed to believe that they…

The jihadists were the end of the line. By drawing them out, we exposed their network. And because we secured the perimeter, we were able to expose the network without getting anyone killed. The FBI can now go after the sources. They are gleaning intel from their computers as we speak. We smoked out a…

Tonight Juan Williams soiled himself trying to take me down on Sean Hannity’s show. What’s outrageous is his seemingly pious air. He did, after all, say, “the truth is that I worry when I am getting on an airplane and see people dressed in garb that identifies them first and foremost as Muslims.” I have…

Is law enforcement investigating this mosque? Or are they just taking the imam’s word for it that these jihadis didn’t learn any of their lust for violence and hatred at that mosque? Is the FBI too busy conducting “outreach” at this mosque to look into what is being taught there? “Texas Shooter’s Imam Warned Members…

Tune into Hannity tonight at 10 pm. I’ll be debating liberal Juan Williams, who viciously attacks me for defending free speech from sharia speech restrictions. This from the man who actually said, “the truth is that I worry when I am getting on an airplane and see people dressed in garb that identifies them first…

Here is my debate with Laura Ingraham’s defense of the indefensible — submitting to the sharia restrictions on free speech. She was so hostile and entrenched that she abused her role as host to ignore or attempt to drown out my arguments. She comes off rather badly, but her bullying may go over well with…

More poison fruit of the suicidal political correctness that dominates government and law enforcement nationwide. “The Garland Shooting Was Entirely Preventable,” by David French, National Review, May 6, 2015 Prosecutorial mistakes and a politically correct judge exposed Americans to a potential massacre. The Garland, Texas, police officer who gunned down two Islamic terrorists not only saved…
