The Film PBS Doesn't Want You to See - Islam vs Islamists
"This documentary tells the story of courageous anti-Islamist Muslims in Western Europe, Canada and the United States and the extraordinary challenges they face in taking on adherents to the theo-totalitarian ideology known as Islamism. What is happening to these moderates – who are being ostracized, intimidated and, in some cases, threatened with death – offers critical insights into the dangers that both they and we are facing. It also suggests steps we must take to help and empower these moderates and others like them.
Unfortunately, as things stand now, objections from the Public Broadcasting Service and the Corporation for Public Broadcasting, this film will not be seen by the American people – whose tax dollars paid for its production."
If you would like to see this documentary made available to the public that paid for it - YOU - please help us get our message to PBS and Congress by signing our petition.

I think this is a very interesting documentary. Khader of Denmark apparently plays a prominent part.
Amusingly, he has stated in the aftermath of PBS’s refusal to show the film, that the U.S. seems to have as much maturity about their Islam debates as Sweden :-)
hahahahha.
hehehehehe.
hihihihihi.
:-)
Cheers.
Which is precisely the reason the PBS doesn't want it shown. The Left is utterly committed to downplaying the (Islamist) threat as much as possible and convincing the sheeple that the main threat comes from the Republican party and conservative/traditionalist/patriotic Americans.
Hopefully, someone will get that film released.
Perhaps it was spiked because it proves that the “moderates” are irrelevant. That’s obvious already, though.
P-BS is unbiased. Really!
They are fair and balanced. Really.

Another “PBS sucks!” ping.
Oops. Oh yeah... this is also a poll FReep ping.

I understand they got $700,000 to produce the film. What if he just filmed another and took it to the theaters like “An Inconvenient Truth” and with all this publicity made a profit. Yeah, change the name and re-film since PBS owns the other, but I bet they would make a bundle and we would get to see it.
Others?
At least I think it shows, according to Khader (whom I admire btw), is that it is utter folly for Western governments to enter into dialogue and pander to groups like Cair and assorted “moderate” imams and mullahs.
Khader was not too impressed by the somewhat unconving support for freedom of speech that came from the U.S. government in the aftermath of the cartoon crisis.
Cheers.
Call it “An Inconvenient Religion”?
Excellent comments, thank you. I do wish we could have aired it here.
“Others”?
Yes. “these moderates and others (moderates) like them.”
The moonbat Left is completely convinced that evangelical Christians (or just Christians, period) are more dangerous than Islamists.
Got it!

Thanks!!!
Going to sign it now. I would also recommend letting your congressman know that you are not a happy camper. if PBS won’t show this at least release it so we can see it. It may be bas...but as of now we don’t know.
I suspect that if a person were to look deeper into this we’s see the fine hand of CAIR.
