Hamas-tied Group CAIR Threatens Lowes

Hamas-linked CAIR is on a jihad against Lowes. And the sharia compliant media is only to eager to serve. Notice how much press the un-indicted co-conspirator, Muslim Brotherhood group, CAIR, is getting over "All American Muslim" advertiser withdrawal. Why does big media endorse and legitimize subversive Hamas-tied jihadist groups?

Where are the counter-jihad voices? This is the cultural sharia. The media self-enforcing the blasphemy laws under the sharia, don't criticize or offend Islam.

64 Companies pull ads from ‘All-American Muslim’.

Bottom line is people are not watching. The fact is that the show specifically situates itself as a response to "Islamophobia" — this was clear from the opening moments of the first show. But it is severely misleading, because it doesn't deal with the kind of Muslims who would ever have caused anyone any concern in the first place. And I have been saying that since the show premiered. Americans do not want to be called bigots because they are concerned with the very real threat of jihad. Further the appeal of watching a conversion to Islam or the banning of the beloved pet dog  is questionable.

Support Lowes. Shop Lowes. Make it their biggest Christimas ever. Pushback.

CAIR Asks Lowe's to Address Anti-Muslim Hate Prompted by TV Ad Pull-Out

Community leaders seek meeting with company to discuss decision to pull spots from TLC's 'All-American Muslim'

(WASHINGTON, D.C., 12/13/2011) — The Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) today called on Lowe's, the world's second largest home improvement retailer, to address the anti-Muslim hate rhetoric prompted by that company's decision to pull its commercials from TLC's new reality series "All-American Muslim."

ACTION REQUESTED: CONTACT Lowe's at 1-800-445-6937, E-Mail:

[email protected], [email protected], [email protected], [email protected] Fax Lowe's: 336-658-2982

Adweek notes that the Lowe's Facebook statement on the controversy "has drawn more than 22,000 comments, a significant portion of which are racist and contain anti-Muslim/anti-Islamic hate speech."

CAIR National Communications Director Ibrahim Hooper told Adweek: "If Lowe's was concerned about spreading hate speech, you would think that they would filter and delete the worst [comments]. It's hard to tell if leaving them up is intentional or not."

National community leaders are also requesting a meeting with Lowe's officials to seek a resolution to the controversy that is "consistent with America's longstanding tradition of religious tolerance and inclusion."

In a letter sent late yesterday to Lowe's CEO and President Robert Niblock,CAIR National Executive Director Nihad Awad noted the "tremendous controversy" that has been generated by Lowe's decision to "bow to the dictates of Islamophobes."

Several former CAIR officials have been convicted of various crimes related to jihad terror:
* Ghassan Elashi, founder of CAIR's Texas chapter, in 2009 received a 65-year prison sentence for funneling over $12 million from the Islamic charity known as the Holy Land Foundation to the jihad terrorist group Hamas, which is responsible for murdering hundreds of Israeli civilians
* Mousa Abu Marzook, a former CAIR official, was designated by the U.S. government in 1995 as a "terrorist and Hamas leader." He now is a Hamas leader in Syria.
* Randall Royer, CAIR's former civil rights coordinator, in 2004 began serving a 20-year prison sentence for aiding al-Qaida and the Taliban against American troops in Afghanistan and recruiting for Lashkar e-Taiba, the jihadist group responsible for the 2008 Mumbai jihad massacres.
* Bassem Khafagi, CAIR's former community relations director, was arrested for involvement with the Islamic Assembly of North America, which was linked to al-Qaida. After pleading guilty to visa and bank fraud charges, Khafagi was deported.
* Rabih Haddad, a former CAIR fundraiser, was deported for his work with the Global Relief Foundation (which he co-founded), a terror-financing organization.
In 1998 Omar Ahmad, CAIR's co-founder and longtime Board Chairman, said: "Islam isn't in America to be equal to any other faith, but to become dominant. The Koran should be the highest authority in America, and Islam the only accepted religion on Earth."
After he received unwelcome publicity as a result of this statement, Ahmad denied saying it, several years after the fact. However, the original reporter, Lisa Gardiner of the Fremont Argus, stands by her story.
CAIR's spokesman Ibrahim Hooper once said: "I wouldn't want to create the impression that I wouldn't like the government of the United States to be Islamic sometime in the future."

Advertisers are free to advertise where and when they want. Where are the calls of racism against the boycott of Israel products? or the Beck show? or Rush?

Criticism of 'All-America Muslim' sparks vandalism, threats  

Dispute escalates to become battle over America's freedoms

A Florida organization's campaign to publicize its criticism of a new television program on The Learning Channel that it says sanitizes Islam – and one company's decision to take its advertising dollars elsewhere – has escalated to an argument about fundamental freedoms for Americans.

That's according to Pamela Geller of Atlas Shrugs, who told WND the controversy over "All-America Muslim," the Florida Family Association and the home improvement store Lowe's is "a matter of standing up for the freedom of Americans."

"Apparently, now the Islamic supremacists in the U.S. are so emboldened that they don't hesitate to force U.S. companies to advertise where they don't wish to, and to mount thuggish attacks against freedom fighters. This must not stand," she said.

"The fact is that the show specifically situates itself as a response to 'Islamophobia' – this was clear from the opening moments of the first show. But it is severely misleading, because it doesn't deal with the kind of Muslims who would ever have caused anyone any concern in the first place. And I have been saying that since the show premiered," said Geller.

The Florida Family Association, which campaigns for consumers to contact advertisers and ask them to stop supporting shows it views as questionable, said hackers have attacked its website.

A statement at the home page location now reads: "Terrorist hackers have taken hostile action against the Florida Family Association website because we published a news report that 'The Learning Channel's' new show All-American Muslim is propaganda clearly designed to counter legitimate and present-day concerns about many Muslims who are advancing Islamic fundamentalism and Shariah law. The show profiles only Muslims that appear to be ordinary folks while excluding many Islamic believers whose agenda poses a clear and present danger to liberties and traditional values that the majority of Americans cherish."

The FFA continued, "This hostile attempt to destroy our web site demonstrates the very reason why we took the position on this program in the first place. These anarchists' mission is to silence anyone who disagrees with them thus forcing an unchallenged position on the people at large."

The organization agreed with Geller: "Every American's First Amendment Rights are in jeopardy when barbarians like these are allowed to violate federal law with acts of cyber piracy. Don't expect federal authorities, especially the FBI, to do anything about this though because the policies of the current administration favor the political posture of these cyber terrorists."

There were claims on the Internet that attributed the vandalism to supporters of Islam.

At the same time, according to the Denver Post, a state senator in California, Ted Lieu, was threatening to call for a boycott of Lowe's. And U.S. Rep. Keith Ellison, D-Minn., defended the Muslim community to which he belongs, accusing Lowe's of upholding the beliefs "of a fringe hate group."

Lowe's decision was to stop advertising on TLC's "All-American Muslim" after FFA publicized its financial stake and asked consumers to contact the company.

The FFA said the show was nothing more than "propaganda that riskily hides the Islamic agenda's clear and present danger to American liberties and traditional values."

Read the rest. Go on.

CAIR and their colleagues had better learn what the Constitution and the Bill of Rights and the first Amendment mean. Lowes owes them nothing! If the Muslims are upset about the public reaction, Lowes is not a state -ruling tyrant. It isn’t their fault, and let’s face it, they. the Muslims, have been driving virulent anti-Semitism for years globally. They have been cheering and undercutting the US, Israel, European countries,
and countless businesses and politicians.They experience the free expression- unpaid and unsolicited in the main- and they want it shut down and our Freedom of Expression curtailed? This is America.If they don’t like it here, meaning our rule of Law, the US Constitution, there are dozens of countries in which they can live with Sharia.
There has to be a thorough education for judges and lawyers about Sharia, the Stealth Jihad, and the Muslim Brotherhood-plus.
I wonder, what Hillary’s meeting earlier in the week with the OIC manifested!

Anyone still think this is not war? Economic, legal and political jihad.

OMG! Click on some of the links Pamela has provided and read some of the comments from these leftist, uneducated socialists.
Did it ever occur to any of them that Lowes pulled their advertising simply for the fact that the show was tanking? It was a piece of garbage. Why would you put your marketing dollars to advertise on low rated programming?
CAIR/Simmons/Socialists: You can call me and my family names all day long. Let me tell you we are not bigots or racists. THE SHOW WAS GARBAGE!!!!

One, I love shopping at Lowe’s instead of that other home depot place… 😉
Two, I shop there with kippa/yarmulke in full view…
Three- how about CAIR and Simmons et al explaining their views on such lovely, tolerant, peaceful hadiths as “The Day [of Judgment] will not come until you fight the Jews and kill them”? Racist? Bigoted? Intolerant? Yep, that describes real islam alright.
Phobia- irrational fear.
Fear that a muslim may kidpnap/rape/torture/ensalve/murder you? Not irrational, based not only on 1,400 years of precedent, but on the 18,000 terrorist attacks carried out in the name of islam SINCE 2001 ALONE, which have left TENS of THOUSANDS maimed and dead.
Of course, CAIR won’t discuss the fact the something like 80+% of the mosques and islamic schools and institutions in the USA are funded and staffed via Saudi Arabia, to teach and advance the Saudi “wahabbist” brand of islam– and if you want to know what that’s like, go visit Saudi Arabia… that is, if you can- cause I can’t, since I have Israel stamps in my passport.

The greatest lessons learned here if you are an advertising executive for a large firm,—whatever you do don’t suggest that they advertise their company and its products on a program that promotes Islam. It is clearly much more trouble then it is worth, the Islamic demographics are a disaster political and religious wise,Muslims represent less than 3 percent of America’s population, the American people are growing wiser about Islam everyday (not fast enough however) . All one has to do is look at the aggressive Islamic supremacist behavior occurring in EU Countries as they push sharia compliance agenda everywhere.

Been busy lately. Sorry Pamela. I just sent a sincere, appropriate e-mail to Lowes. I wrote about CAIR (their designation) and told them that given their courage I will be spending my money there I’m not just saying that either. I’m in the process of finishing my basement and will be making many trips to Lowes. They’ve earned my business!

I’m thinking that there’e more than meets the eye about the Moslems’ agitation about Lowe’s. Many other companies have also withdrawn their advertising for AAM: Sears, Wal-Mart, McDonald’s, GM, Bank of America, and Goodyear among them. So why is Lowe’s being singled out? Since the Saudis are the main backers of the propaganda and litigation jihads, I assume that Lowe’s has offended the Saudis in some way that the other advertisers have not.

I’m a Christian who owns a series of billboards along I-41. The local Moslem butcher, Ali Khat [Ali’s Fine Meats — “100% Halal Guaranteed”] refuses to buy any advertising on any of my signs. I think the feds should force him to do so. Do I have a case?

This idiotic idea that Lowes can be forced to advertize on a particular show, is the same idea that was behind the attempt to force Boeing to move their production from NC back to WA. Why is a business obligated to answer to anyone other than their customers and shareholders/owners? The point of business, at least in the USA, is to make a profit. I’m sure Lowes looked at the first episode ratings and demographics and simply decided it wasn’t worth their advertising money. They might have felt that it wasn’t a message they wanted to support, that is their choice as well.
