'This is a war': Woman behind anti-Islamic Muhammad cartoon contest and her long history of hatred
Daily Mail ^ | 2015-05-04 | Associated Press

Posted on 05/04/2015 9:49:45 AM PDT by E. Pluribus Unum

Blogger Pamela Geller, 56, president of the American Freedom Defense Initiative, has been highly critical of Islam for years

Geller's group was behind anti-Islamic ads that began appearing on New York City buses and subway entrances last year

She said Sunday that the shooting showed how 'needed our event really was'

The woman behind the Muhammad cartoon contest targeted in a Texas shooting Sunday has a long history of inflammatory anti-Islam propaganda, and watchdogs have labeled her organization a hate group.

Pamela Geller, president of the American Freedom Defense Initiative (AFDI), said immediately after two armed men opened fire on a security officer outside the provocative event in Garland, that the shooting was merely proof of how 'needed our event really was.'

The controversial 56-year-old blogger, who was quick to call the shooting a 'war on free speech,' has made headlines over the years for her tactics.

Most recently when AFDI paid to have ads posted to New York City buses with the quote 'Killing Jews is worship that draws us close to Allah' plastered all over.

After 9/11, if there is anyone who does NOT hate Islam — there is something wrong with that person.

Looks like the Daily Mail conveniently left out the last couple words of the ad -- that she was simply quoting Hamas TV. That's all she does is publicize what they say in their own countries. And for doing that, she has a "long history of hatred."

how about seeing the first one hit while on the way to work How about traveling for two years through a detour where you had to see the pathetic planet of the apes-like smashed frame of a piece of the WTC.
went immediately to give blood and then to national guard but at 260 they said no good. I have never been able to lose it. that’s another story.
I have friends who are firemen. One died of lung cancer the other is very sick.
what if you were told through loudspeaker at rock plaza that sarin might have been sent though the vents and to wait for further info.
what if you worked in that beautiful building twice.
They were beautiful to me, i dont care what others think
you sat on the ferry outside and looked at those masterpieces in the ny skyline
now we have some pos needle like building that was designed by some s....le liberal and it’s pathetic.
and they want to build a mosque near it!!!! I will spit on it every f...g day!!!!

Just put these contests in a different city each month then post hunters with accurate rifles. It’s like using Tink’s during the rut.

AFAIK, Pam Geller hasn’t hacked any heads, nor attacked media offices, nor cartoonists. But she’s the hater? Right!

These people are sick in the head. Mass murderers come after Geller and she is the one showing hate?

Yet for some “baffling” reason, Islam with its endless violence, beheadings, burnings, gassings, rapes, stonings, bombings, warring and destroying is NOT a hate group. Behold the Borg Cube. Pause for lobotomy before entering.

Pam Geller has never tried to shoot anyone contrary to the two terrorist scums that came after her.

Thank God and our Founding Fathers we have the First Amendment in America!

Interesting how they take the word of a real dingbat money raising operation called the Southern Poverty Law Center to slander Pam Geller as leading a “hate group”. Check out Morris Dees and the SPLC some day; there’s real money in this for the organizers. So, if they will abide by their slanders, I can say the London Daily Mail leads a “hate group”. The authority?? Me and its just as valid a non-accusation and illegitimate source as they one that newspaper cited.
