Muslim who plotted to behead Pamela Geller tried to organize other beheadings while in jail...
Jihad Watch ^ | 4/22/16 | Robert Spencer

“The court heard the pair allegedly plotted with Wright’s uncle Usaamah Rahim to behead blogger Pamela Geller, who is known for provoking Muslims.”

The Daily Mail is generally grotesque in its combination of coverage of the jihad threat with outright denial of its ideological roots, along with a vicious bias against the foes of jihad terror.

But this is worse than they even usually are. Pamela Geller “is known for provoking Muslims”? That is an implied justification for this Islamic State plot to behead her — after all, she “provoked” them. The idea has been lost nowadays, but it remains true: no one is responsible for anyone else’s actions unless the actor is being coerced.

Rovinski and Wright were not forced to behead Pamela Geller by her standing for the freedom of speech. They could have reflected upon the nature of a pluralistic society and chosen any number of other paths. Drawings of Muhammad are no more a provocation to kill than Beatles songs.

That Charles Manson heard some of those songs as orders to kill doesn’t mean the Beatles “provoked” Manson, and Pamela Geller and I sponsoring a Muhammad cartoon contest doesn’t mean that we “provoked” Rovinski and Wright. Nor is she or anyone else responsible for what they tried to do. Only they themselves are.

For this kind of Muslim, seeing a Maple Leaf fall out of a tree into the street and be run over by a truck full of hogs, would be a ‘provocation to jihad’.

Since they are subhuman savages they can’t control their low order instincts. Say something they don’t like and they’ll cut your head off.
Reasoning with them is like reasoning with a hyena.

So, kill them like the hyenas they are.

Why did Trump criticize Gellar for the drawing contest?

Because he made a mistake.

Simple.

From what I see, he won't make that mistake again.

From what every one can see, he's the ONLY ONE who will stop muzzie immigration in its tracks.

Sorry about that.

Both are marauding packs of mad dogs and should be exterminated. No emotion involved nor needed, to kill all of them.

The survival of each & every “infidel” now depends on his or her ability to bust a leathal cap.
