Anti-jihad 'savage' ads going up in NYC subway

[toomuchtime_]

As violent protests over an anti-Islamic film ridiculing the Prophet Mohammed sweep over much of the Muslim world, a conservative blogger's provocative ad equating Muslim radicals with savages is set to go up in the city's subway system.

Pamela Geller, who once headed a campaign against an Islamic center near the Sept. 11, 2001 terror attack site won a court order to post the ad in 10 subway stations next Monday. The ad reads, "In any war between the civilized man and the savage, support the civilized man. Support Israel. Defeat Jihad."

The ad was plastered on San Francisco city buses in recent weeks, prompting some artists to deface the ads and remove some of the words, including "Jihad," or holy war. Geller said she filed suit Thursday in the US capital to post the ad in Washington's transit system after officials declined to put up the ad in light of the uproar in the Middle East over the anti-Islam film.

Abdul Yasar, a New York subway rider who considers himself an observant Muslim, said Geller's ad was insensitive in an unsettling climate for Muslims.

"If you don't want to see what happened in Libya and Egypt after the video - maybe not so strong here in America - you shouldn't put this up," Yasar said.

But "if this is a free country, they have the right to do this," he said. "And then Muslims have the right to put up their own ad."

Absolutely.

"If it's not a film it's a cartoon, if it's not a cartoon it's a teddy bear," she said. "What are you going to do? Are you going to reward Islamic extremism? I will not sacrifice my freedom so as not to offend savages."

No one should ask her to.

The courts have decided that this is a freedom of speech issue and they have decided also that the ad is not hate speech, therefore as repugnant as the language is I support the courts decision. The ads should go up but we better hear no objection when equally insulting ads are placed againsts Israelis.

Objecting is an exercise in free speech, so you're not making sense.

Except Palestinians aren't natives of the land you fucking idiot. They are invaders from neighboring Arab lands. In fact they started calling themselves "Palestinians" as of 1967.

and you're wrong.

 

[irosie91]

anyone want to suggest ACCEPTABLE VS NON ACCEPTABLE ads?

it should be noted that in many muslim countries -----a sign saying JESUS SAVES would be illegal and even BLASPHEMOUS and prosecuted as a CRIME
In some muslim countries----handing a bible to anyone is a crime and OFFENSIVE TO ISLAM
I have seen signs saying READ YOUR KORAN DAILY is that one ok?

How is that relevant?

 

[irosie91]

Muslims building a mosque at GROUND ZERO in Manhattan want to name the place CORDOBA HOUSE--------I think that the front of the bulding should be required by law to record the fact of DEADLY POGROMS enacted by muslims in CORDOBA and the fact that muslims inposed a CONVERT TO ISLAM OR DIE edict there and that MAIMONIDES who was born there------fled to save his life leaving dead colleagues behind and then did a FAKE CONVERSION TO ISLAM again in order to save his life-----and later wrote extenisvely on the subject as how jews can survive the FILTH OF ISLAM -----interestingly enough----the founders of the idiot mosque seem to believe CORDOBA was a wonderful example of "TOLERANT ISLAM"

Is it also relevant to say that Obama's campaign is being run by a Jew, Axelrod, and is funded by Jewish money?

if you cannot understand the differeence between the two, i am not about to explain it to you.

i imagine it is relevant and if people want to pay for such ads, they are welcome to. i have no problem with it.

i'm certainly concerned about campaign finance reform.

You have that right here in America, Princess, and I believe Gellar's language is incitement and unnecessary. Common courtesy dictates it is not suitable for a train station. It belongs on a message board.
