AFDI hits back...

Pamela Geller /Atlas Shrugs  
AFDI hits back


Hundreds More Bus Ads Up
San Francisco NEXT
Third Lawsuit Filed This Month
AFDI Ads of Truth Go Nationwide
We are Fighting Willful Denial, Ignorance and Complicity
While the Islamic State continues to conquer whole swaths of the Middle East and Boko Haram has declared a caliphate in Africa, The Obama administration and his lapdog media continue to insist the Islamic State has nothing to do with Islam.
Madness.
Where would the world be if, during WWII when the Germans were conquering whole swaths of Europe, FDR insisted that Nazism had nothing to do with Germany. We certainly would not have won, and it’s where we are headed right now. Which is why what we do is more CRITICAL now. Now more than ever.
Our new campaign has made headlines around the world. We must continue to buck the forces of Islamic supremacism and their leftist lapdogs.
We CANNOT do this without you. YOU make it happen. YOU are what stands between freedom and Islamic supremacism.
PLEASE CONTRIBUTE TO THE CAUSE HERE.
A lot of people talk, we DO.
But we can't do it without your support.
The enemy (CAIR, ISNA, Media Matters, Center for American Progress, American Muslims for Palestine have tens of millions of dollars, over the past five years - hundreds of millions.) We can't do it alone.
We are suing the NYC MTA for refusing this ad:
