Free-speech free-for-all NY Post Now that’s how you counter something you consider to be hate speech. With more speech. Not spray paint — like self-promoting Muslim activist Mona Eltahawy. As The Post’s Jennifer Fermino reported yesterday, no fewer than three groups have bought new subway ads to counter the “defeat jihad” notices bought by blogger…

Hooha! Preserving our first amendment rights is big news; that's how bad things have gotten. "Judge: DC Metro must allow anti-jihad ads" Wall Street Journal WASHINGTON — A federal judge says the D.C. transit system must allow a pro-Israel ad that equates Muslim radicals with savages. U.S. District Judge Rosemary Collyer said in a one-page…

Read my column over at The Thinker on the poser: Obama's Mask Slips Pamela Geller Much is being made of the devastating blow that Mitt Romney administered to President Obama in the first presidential debate Wednesday night.  Romney was masterful; Obama was incomprehensible.  Romney was presidential; Obama was incoherent.  Romney schooled Obama; Obama responded by…

Washington DC coverage of our free speech fight: Free Speech Under Siege In U.S. District Court in the Nation's Capital WASHINGTON – FOX DC A federal judge will issue a ruling soon on whether the D.C. transit system must be forced to allow a pro-Israel ad that equates Muslim radicals with savages. The Metro system…

Today was a dark day in American history, but you'd never know because the media is complicit in this sharia enforcement.  I had a front-row seat to witness the rape of the First Amendment in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia, Judge Rosemary Collyer, presiding. Robert Spencer and I went down to…

Islamization of university education: Jew-hating Education at Northeastern University "University tells Muslim services no longer needed" Michael Carl, WND Dismisses chaplain over support for terrorists Apparently, supporting terrorism isn’t approved on some university campuses these days. In a startling development, Boston’s Northeastern University has dismissed jihad-preaching Muslim chaplain Abdullah Faaruuq after video surfaced of Faaruuq…

The arson strategy is recommended in al qaeda handbooks, so this is not surprising. Has the Obama administration looked into the arsonists and/or their motives in the recent spate of forest fires in America? Or is this just another epic national security failure by the pro-jihadist White House? If Obama would cover up an Islamic…

Check out Hamas-CAIR's Cyrus McGoldrick's last comment: "don't worry we'll blast him later." He is referring to an "NYPD informant" who was outed. Once again CAIR exposes who and what they really are. Click on the image to enlarge. (Hat tip TOTD)

It is not difficult to see what a horror a second Obama presidency will look like. Obama is consistent in his foreign policy — anti-freedom, pro-jihad. Four years into his presidency, the world is radically transformed, and soon will be unrecognizable. Anti-Israel, Pro-Hamas Muslim Leader Is US Delegate to Warsaw Human Rights Conference His most…

Last week I wrote about the MTA hearing I attended on whether they were going to change their policy to refuse all political ads (background here). It was, essentially a rabble rousers' freak show. The people who attended were for the most part OWS thugs, anarchists, and Jew-haters. They spoke as one violent and hateful…

We are expanding our anti-jihad ad campaign across New York and the country. We are rolling the following eight ads out in tandem across the backs of buses all across the great city. The Blaze broke the story here (leave your comments on the new campaign here): Conservative Pamela Geller to Expand Anti-Jihad Campaign With…

A “defeat jihad” advertisement that represents the latest clash between the nation’s commitment to free speech and its responsibility to protect against terrorism is headed to a D.C. district court this week — and possibly to Metro stations. The American Freedom Defense Initiative, an advocacy group that warns against the Islamization of America, submitted advertisements…

Despite the army of sharia enforcers in the media and the Islamic supremacist thugs, the voices in support of freedom are getting louder and louder: "Call a Terrorist a 'Savage'? How Uncivilized" William McGurn, Wall Street Journal, October 1, 2012 10:12 pm An anti-jihad message is 'hate speech' by today's topsy-turvy standards. "In any war…

“This lawsuit represents a clash between our American values and the fundamental right to freedom of speech on the one hand and those values espoused by sharia-adherent Muslims who want to suppress speech through violence on the other. In direct contravention of our Constitution, the WMATA is siding with the jihadists and silencing our clients’…

Blazing article over at The Blaze taking on my debate with Soros-funded dhimmi #OWS Pastor Jim Wallis: "Lib Pastor Jim Wallis Accuses Conservative of ‘Hatred’ & Begs Her to ‘Stop Talking’ During On-Air Clash Over Anti-Jihad Subway Ad" Billy Hallowell, The Blaze The ongoing debate surrounding conservative blogger Pamela Geller’s anti-Jihad New York City subway…

The Fashionable New CowardiceBy Robert Spencer Without anyone really noticing, cowardice has overtaken the American public square, and is now widely retailed as if it were the sensible, proper response to violent Muslim intimidation. Last week Newsday ran an opinion piece about Pamela Geller’s pro-freedom American Freedom Defense Initiative (AFDI) ad in the New York…

Look at the comments at the NY Post here. This is what I am seeing in the hundreds and hundreds of emails I am getting from "the man on the street." The media is spinning their fallacious narrrative. It does not reflect what is really happening. Pink paint can’t stop it: Free speech always wins …

Europe descends deeper into the abyss. While the Holocaust was a German initiative, it was carried out by every nation in Europe, save for the Danes. There were Dutch Nazis, Polish Nazis; Europe as a continent decided it was a good idea to get rid of the Jews. Holland had the highest rate of collaboration…

I appeared on 'Up Close' with Diana Williams, WABC-TV’s public affairs show. I debated Rev. Jim Wallis of Sojourners, who is launching his own ad campaign on the subways, "hitting back" at ours. It’s a pity that Rev. Jim Wallis didn’t get his group together to stand up when Christians, Hindus, and so many others…

It took centuries of intellectual, philosophical development to achieve political freedom. It was a long struggle, stretching from Aristotle to John Locke to the Founding Fathers. The system they established was not based on unlimited majority rule, but on its opposite: on individual rights, which were not to be alienated by majority vote or minority…

And while I am no fan of Dershowitz, in this he is absolutely correct. "It incentivizes people to engage in violence. What it says to people, is that if they don’t like ads, just engage in violence and then we’ll take the ads down.” I just submitted another NY campaign to the MTA. It will…

I will be appearing this morning on Up Close with Diana Williams, WABC-TV’s public affairs show. We will be discussing the anti-jihad ad campaign. I will be debating Rev. Jim Wallis of Sojourners, who is launching his own ad campaign on the subways, "hitting back" at ours. It’s a pity that Rev. Jim Wallis didn’t…

Tonight’s Saturday Night Cinema is the thrilling psychological film noir, The Big Clock. Taut, intense suspense told in “superb visual style set against the backdrop of upscale 1940s New York and offering an early (but accurate) depiction of the modern media industry.” Charles Laughton, whom I adore, is brilliant (as always). Sit back and enjoy….

Fantastic video over at you tube. I don't know who the YT user is, but major props.

Here is the sharia response to Judge Paul Engelmayer's ruling in favor of our First Amendment right to run our pro-Israel ad campaign in New York City. One would think that moderate Muslims like Mr. Hayat Masudi would stand with freedom lovers in opposing jihadi attacks. That's what we are always told by our immoral…

Commenter name: haniCommenter email: [email protected] address: 65.93.179.31 Let me make this perfectly clear. I will never sacrifice my freedom so as not to offend savages. And neither should any other American. The MTA may have injected an ambigous, unconstitutional, and thoroughly reckless revision into their ad policy in order to appease a lawless mob, but…

The Muslim Brotherhood figures that with their man in the White House, Islamic supremacism is the order of the day. Mona Eltahawy broke the law. She destroyed my property. And she will be prosecuted to the full extent of the law. The idea that Muslims get special treatment is a tenet of Islam, Islamic supremacism*…

The New York Times has run a piece, and Hot Air is running with it as if it's accurate, claiming that the MTA has changed its guidelines to be able to prohibit my AFDI pro-freedom ads. I disagree with that interpretation. The New York Times piece is inaccurate, putting as negative a spin as they…

Hamas-CAIR, seething with Islamic Jew-hatred, spewed vicious libel (unchallenged) on NY1's "The Call." Here is my response …… Hamas-CAIR is an unindicted co-conspirator in a Hamas terror funding case — so named by the Justice Department. CAIR operatives have repeatedly refused to denounce Hamas and Hizballah as terrorist groups. Several former CAIR officials have been…

The Muhammad filmmaker, Nakoula Basseley Nakoula, was arrested. Whatever the pretense, he is a political prisoner, he is being jailed for blasphemy. This is Obama sharia enforcement in America. Obama brought down the gavel on free speech iat the UN when he said,  "the future must not belong to those who slander the prophet of…

I missed posting my column this week — if you missed it, go here. DEFENDING THE WEST I'm offending 'savages'? Guilty as charged Exclusive: Pamela Geller fights latest effort to censor her organization's anti-jihad ads After my organization, the American Freedom Defense Initiative (AFDI), won a historic victory in our First Amendment lawsuit against the…

Contrary to the conventional "wisdom," the MTA board did not change its ad policy and block political advertising because of our anti-jihad ad. Despite critical media and the howling mob of miscreants, political, cause-related ads will run. The agenda of the MTA meeting was to "overhaul subway ad policies," according to big media (ABC, WSJ)….

Mona Eltahawy sprayed our AFDI pro-freedom ad with spray paint because she objected to the word "savages" being used of Islamic jihadists who murder Israeli civilians and celebrate their murders by passing out candy. Eltahawy describes herself as a "liberal Muslim," and everyone assumes that that means that she is worlds from the Muslims who…

The media's fascination with the defacement of our ads seems to be unending; they are rubbing their hooves in glee ….. this is but one of hundreds of articles. 'Racist' stickers plastered over controversial subway station ads Metro   These stickers appeared on at least six of the 10 ads paid for by the American…

Great piece over at WND: Obama's top faith adviser blasts anti-jihad ad Bob Unruh, WND Claims his campaign represents 'Christians across the country' It took only hours after the posting of a pro-Israel slogan in New York City for opponents to launch a violent spray-paint attack against the message and for a religious adviser to…

Jay Dow must have taken pointers from the Atlas take-down of his one-sided Hamas shilling segnment last week. My takedown here:  WPIX's Jay Dow Panders to Hamas in America — Atlas Shrugs His follow-up report is much better. Not great — but better.

I discuss our counter jihad campaign in New York on Ezra Levant’s show on SUN TV.

Mona Eltahawy was arrested and spent the night in jail. Her attack on Pamela Hall is vicious. The irony is thick on so many levels. Robert Spencer explains: "Beasts" — OK, "savages" — vile racism. Islamic supremacist logic is so complicated! Actually, as I explained here, I think Mona Eltahawy's fascist vandalism of our pro-freedom…

Good piece over at The Jerusalem Post criticizing the uber-left "Forward" for its biased attacks against our pro-Israel ad. "We need The Forward not to go backward" Yisrael Medad, Jerusalem Post  Over at the left-wing – or is it liberal? – New York Jewish radical weekly, The Forward, where some friends of mine get published,…

I did a ton of media today, all on the Islamic supremacists and leftist thugs who are destroying our ads. The media is fetishizing the destruction and defacement of our anti-jihad ads. The media calls our accurate ads "controversial" or "inflammatory." But they offer no such criticism of the criminals who are destroying them. This…

Why would WaPo urge the running of our ads? Because they know the DC transit Authority is going to lose and lose big. They continue to defame and smear, and those obnoxious and hateful thumbsuckers over at the Washington Post call the message obnoxious and hateful. But many of their commenters are more informed than…

Photo: She should be clutching a child — another missed oportunity for Fermino. Jennifer Fermino, who covers transit issues for the New York Post, is still smarting over the article I wrote exposing her collusion with the MTA. In it, I revealed e-mails that showed that she was very cozy with MTA brass,  reassuring them…

NY1, the New York news channel did an entire show on AFDI's counter jihad subway ads. Being NY1 is skews left, of course, but voices for freedom are permitted to speak. Needless to say, the objective of these ads have been more than achieved. The goal of the ads was to increase awareness of a…
