PAMELA GELLER REACTS TO REPORTED TARGETING: ‘ISIS IS HERE,’ ‘THIS IS A WAR’
Wednesday on CNN’s “Erin Burnett OutFront,” American Freedom Defense Initiative president Pamela Geller reacted to reports that the Boston terror suspect plotted to behead her and said, “This is a war.”
“This is a showdown for American freedom,” she said. “Will we stand against the savagery or bow down to them and silence ourselves?”
Geller said, “Well, they targeted me for violating Sharia blasphemy laws. They mean to kill everyone who doesn’t do their bidding and abide by their law voluntarily. This is a showdown for American freedom. Will we stand against this savagery or bow down to them and silence ourselves? It won’t end with me, no matter what happens to me or the cops. This is just the beginning. The one thing that’s being ignored that came out of Garland, Texas, is that ISIS is here. Islamic terrorism is here. now. Will the media realize what’s at stake and that their heads are next? Or will they continue to target me because they hate my message of freedom? That’s the question.”
When Burnett quizzed Geller on the controversial ad she runs to counter Islamic extremists Geller said, “Of course I’m not surprised they would target me. This is a war and they seek to impose the Sharia. The ads that I’ve done across the country were in response to vicious anti-Israel, anti-Semitic ads already running. And my question to you is, do we not want to defeat jihad? i mean, what is wrong with those ads? there is nothing wrong with the cartoon. there is nothing about the cartoon that incites violence. It is within established American tradition of satire. And if America surrenders on this point, the freedom of speech is a relic of history.”
When Burnett asked if Geller relished being the target she shot back, “Relish being the target? Who self-promotes to get killed?”
If the Muslim community does not disavow these jihadi's it will prove the adage that there are two kinds of Muslim: the radicals who want to kill you and the moderates who are willing for the radicals to kill you.
