Much of what leaves Bill Maher's mouth after this point encapsulates Geller's message in such a way that it will be understood by an audience that might otherwise write it off if a figure like Geller had said it. To the progressive audience members who know who Geller is, or maybe have watched the many propaganda charades disguised as documentaries against her, Geller has the letter I branded on her -- so her words would likely be immediately dismissed as hate.
So Maher gets to say what Geller does and would say, without having Levin immediately dismiss the truth as Islamophobia, which follows:
I am not an Islamophobe, that's wrong. I am a truth lover. [Approving applause] All religions are not alike. As many people have pointed out, The Book of Mormon, did you see the show? [Levin says no, as he's unable to get tickets.] Okay. Can you imagine if they did The Book of Islam? [Pause.] Could they do that? There is only one religion that threatens violence and carries it out for things like that. Could they do The Book of Islam on Broadway?Levin replied with an unconvincing "Possibly so," looking to quickly change the subject. But before he could, Maher sardonically demanded, "Tell me what color the sky is in your world."
Visibly flustered, Levin continued, grasping the only arrow left in his quiver. He suggested that there are 1.4 billion Muslims in the world, and yes, a lot of them are extremists "who would slit your throats," but "there are also folks that are fine, upstanding people." So he's worried that this national audience might be being exposed to "hatred" of Muslims.

Curious. What is Bill M up to??
5 feet 1.
Can it be possible? A lefty like Maher saying Islam is a violent religion? Even after the CSCOPE indoctrination of our students and the implied suggestion ithat they should worship Allah? Maybe there is a brain somewhere in there.
So Maher is an equal-opportunity religion hater rather than a pure anti-Christian.
Are we to give him kudos because we think he might be reaching to the pure anti-Christians in his audience?
Or because he is showing a sign of common sense that my 10 year old has on his own?
Isn’t he dating Ann Coulter? Maybe she’s opened his eyes.
Bill Maher's been saying this since at least March 2011:
(March 2011) Bill Maher went off on radical Islam, deeming “the threat, potentially, from radicalized Muslims…a unique and greater threat” – one, he said, that’s in its “medieval era.” In addition, he cited “trying to get nuclear weapons” and a “culture of suicide bombing.”
Bill Maher said The Qur’an is a “hate-filled holy book…which is taken very literally” by radical Islamic terrorists.
It’s actually rare that a Christian hater is anti-Islam (or any other religion),
because there really are only two sides to this cosmic battle,
and if they’re anti-Christian, they will side with every other belief system that is anti-Christian.

Bill Maher To Muslim Rep. Keith Ellison: The Qur’an Is A ‘Hate Filled Holy Book’

Ok, so Bill Mahr can see the obvious if enough people die.
He’s still an enemy to the America I grew up in. Sadly, that America is dying rapidly.
“Even a stopped clock gives the right time twice a day.”
Mohammed was a child rapist.
He suggested that there are 1.4 billion Muslims in the world, and yes, a lot of them are extremists “who would slit your throats,” but “there are also folks that are fine, upstanding people.”
I’ve read in the past that about 16% (~ 224 million) of Muzzies are actively engaged in jihad against the infidel in the dal al-harb. Many more support it more passively by donating/raising money for it or other things. Jihad is the core tenant of Islam. You aren’t a good Muzzy if you are not somehow involved in it.
Dumping his attention-whore schtick and revealing what he REALLY thinks?
Levin doesn't mind ginning up hatred for conservatives - that appears to be his specialty. Maybe he's one of the leftists writing fake letters to newspaper columnists - pretending to be a conservative... Yep, liberals burn down their own churches and blame conservatives - they carve hate messages into their own skin - then blame white guys. And they write fake letters in our name ...
Muslims have a word for Muslims who don’t support violent jihad - Apostate.

BINGO!
