Dhimmitude on the Hudson: Mayor Swiderski and Board of trustees submits and requests the whole town do the same

Mayor Swiderski,

Before I file my story can you tell us why no such mailing went out concerning the vicious anti-Semitic ads. The anti-Israel ads were twice the buy (100 kiosks.)  This speaks to a systemic, institutionalized anti-semitism prevalent in your administration and among the Board.
Care to comment?

Thank you,
Pamela Geller

The dhimmi Mayor of Hastings-on-Hudson sent me the email below to ….. taunt me? It is jawdropping. The Board of Trustees sent a letter to the entire village last night asking residents "to express their dismay" to Joseph Lhota (here) concerning our islamorealism ad. I suggest you do the same, shruggers. I would write to everyone (even to this clown of a Mayor). But be polite. Hastings-on-Hudson, this is your taxpayer dollars at work!

Do these politicians really believe that all Muslims support jihad? And if they believe it, why surrender so swiftly?

The Muslim Brotherhood groups don't even have to agitate anymore. They can just sit back and watch these useful idiots and dhimmis do their work for them.

The Mayor and this Board of spineless wonders maintained their neutrality about the anti-semitic ad; they were silent about that. Notice how these clowns at one government entity has "complained" to another about private citizens exercising their constitutional rights.

Again,  I encourage all Atlas readers to write to Joseph Lhota, Chairman, MTA, 347 Madison Avenue, New York, NY 10017 or to the general comment email at the MTA website at http://mta-nyc.custhelp.com/cgi-bin/mta_nyc.cfg/php/enduser/ask.php, to express your support for these ads and your "dismay" at Hastings-on-Hudson's politically correct pandering and running interference for genocidal jihadists, as well as for their craven and disquieting disregard for the freedom of speech of those with whom they disagree.

From: "Village of Hastings-on-Hudson Announcements"
Subject: Message from the Board: Controversial MetroNorth Billboard on train platform

Fellow Residents –

A few days ago, a billboard appeared on the city-bound MetroNorth platform (as well as, apparently, throughout Westchester) sponsored by “The American Freedom Defense Initiative”. This billboard starts with “19,250 Islamic attacks since 9/11” and states that “It’s not Islamophobia, it’s Islamorealism.”

While the Board respects everyone’s right to free speech, we categorically condemn the bigotry and innuendo expressed by this billboard message. To tar a faith and its followers because of the actions of a few is deplorable, hateful and morally repugnant. Such an ad neither reflects the ideals of this community, nor, we believe, of our nation. America welcomes people of all faiths, including millions of the Muslim faith who call our country (including those who live in our village) their home. They, like the vast majority of believers in that (and all other) major religions, embrace peace and do not endorse the violence wrought by a fanatic few.

The Board of Trustees have joined the many others who have already complained to MetroNorth about this ad campaign placement. MetroNorth’s Media Relations department has issued a statement that concludes with “The MTA does not endorse the viewpoint expressed in these ads or any of the ads that the MTA accepts for display on its facilities.” Apparently, after legal review, this ad did not qualify as hate speech and falls under First Amendment protection. If any resident would like to express their dismay, they should address their letters to Joseph Lhota, Chairman, MTA, 347 Madison Avenue, New York, NY 10017 or the general comment email at the MTA website at . http://mta-nyc.custhelp.com/cgi-bin/mta_nyc.cfg/php/enduser/ask.php.

Thank you for your attention,

The Board of Trustees of the
Village of Hastings-on-Hudson

UPDATE: it is so great to hear from so many residents angered by this act of cowardice and senseless pandering to jihad. I urge all concerned residents to attend our World Freedom Congress on September 11, 2012 at 3pm at the UN Plaza Hotel. Take back your town, your city, your country from clueless and complicit dhimmis.

Frightening. This is suicide by nice.
Remember the penultimate scene in the old Invasion of the Body Snatchers? Kevin McCarthy is hysterical, running in traffic, desperately trying to warn everyone that they are in danger.
And no one will believe him. No one will listen.

SOOO few men left with any testosterone! Perhaps this Hastings mayor and his fellow sympathizers can step out of their little quaint limousine liberal, lily white community and see what the hell is going on.Go live in a diverse neighborhood rather than regurgitating the cherish diversity BS. Actually, go spend some time in a muslim/sharia nation. Or in Sderot Israel where they spend much time in bomb shelters. Then we’ll talk. FOOLS!!!! Pamela, I stand and applaud you for your truth and fortitude.

first recognize
what these people are and
what they are doing
they are cowards
they are sucking up to the bully
no doubt in hope that the bully won’t pick on them
this is a typical childish schoolyard tactic
the best way to defend yourself is to be the bully’s friend
regardless of everything
they are still unprincipled cowards
they should be called out as such
no degree of humiliation is too extreme

This sickness of so called political correct thinking is spreading around the western world. Muslims are using this and other legal protections of minorities to shut up the majority of the people. It’s psychological warfare, if you do not meet the standards set by certain political fractions you are ‘bad’, ‘wrong’, ‘racist’, or you lack IQ or whatever they want to call you.

These are the very individuals who must be personally held accountable with each and every infraction of sharia enhancement upon that community.
Cultural enrichment resulting in sharia imposed restrictions on first amendment rights, as well as traditional jihad (rape, car b-q’s, halal expenses for incarcerated members of society, honor murder, fgm, revisionist history in schools, no-go zones etc. etc. ) The average reader of Atlas’ site are fully aware and readily anticipate the direct result of self-inflicted dhimmi cowardice.
Make a note. Residents of Hastings on the Hudson now have the identities of those members of their community’s leadership who took extraordinary steps to expose this community to self inflicted dhimmitude.
Hold them accountable at the voting booth as well as in court as appropriate.

“do not endorse the violence wrought by a fanatic few.”
A “fanatic few” like Mohammed and his followers you mean?

You can tell a self-styled liberal by the way he/she bandies around the word “bigot” so liberally. I bet the mayor doesn’t even know what it means.
Where’s all this “hate speech” malarkey come from anyway? I’ll hate just who I please. Soon it’ll be hate speech to tell a mugger to f*** off. Well just imagine how offended the poor guy would be, with all that violation of his human rights an’ all.

I’ve had disturbing conversations with friends about the subject and gone through exactly the same thing. They get upset because they don’t want to be anti-Muslim or anti-Islam. They ultimately acknowledge they are woefully uninformed about what is happening with Muslim “fundamentalism.”
I wouldn’t just blame the left or anti-semitism. Thank the efforts of the government, starting with George W. Bush, and the media to paint Islam as a benign religion.
Also, we all know it’s OK and “edgy” to criticize Jews and Israel. Jews aren’t going to get crazy and violent. It’s not the same with Muslims obviously, so no one wants to stir things up. That might get serious blowback. I’m sure that’s part of the equation otherwise people wouldn’t be falling all over themselves to condemn AFDI.

UK: Demo against Mosque in Chelmsford, Essex
Today, a few hundred people turned up for a Demo in Chelmsford, in opposition to a proposed Mosque (in Rigina Road). Musings of a Durotrigan‘s blog has penned an article on the demo at http://durotrigan.blogspot.co.uk/2012/08/edl-chelmsford-demo.html (read the article, lots of cross referencing links)
Reading Musings of a Durotrigan‘s article, I am stunned to learn that UK Independence Party (UKIP) attended this demonstration. Problem is, UK Independence Party (UKIP) weren’t there to support the demonstrators against the planned Mosque, they were there to support the ‘unwashed’, leftists/commies!!! You couldn’t make this shoite up. This must be a huge disappointment to many who were looking to vote UKIP at the next election.
[snippet from Musings of a Durotrigan]:
Like clockwork, the announcement that the EDL were to protest today spawned a decision by the local TUC to stage a counter-protest under the UAF banner. Looking at the list of signatories endorsing the protest against the EDL, it is interesting to see not only the usual suspects such as local members of the Labour Party and leading trades unionists, but also UKIP! How strange for UKIP to align themselves with a Trotskyist front group! The city’s Conservative MP Simon Burns also backed the UAF protest.
Recently, much to the astonishment of UKIP supporters, UKIP set-up a group within their party called ‘Friends of Israel in UKIP’ (affiliated to a leftist twerp named Jacob Campbell) and UKIP then went and set-up another group called Friends of Palestine in UKIP!!
It all makes sense now as to why UKIP turned up today at the Chelmsford demo and chose to stand with the leftist/commie/anarchist groups who were there in opposition to the demo and those protestors who are against yet another mosque being built.
Recently, JDLUK penned two pieces on this leftist/islamist filtration within the UKIP, here: http://www.jdl-uk.org/2012/06/official-response-to-ukip-creation-of.html and here: http://www.jdl-uk.org/2012/08/why-jacob-campbell-of-ukip-friends-of.html
UKIP shows their true colours at last and Farage is now an empty suit. UKIP will lose a lot of their supporters. Rest in Peace UKIP, or should that be Rest in Pieces!

In response to your comments on a billboard that appeared on the city-bound Metro North platform sponsored by “The American Freedom Defense Initiative”.
Do allow me to bring up the following points to your attention,
What was your reaction when ?
Hamas has launched thousands of rockets toward southern Israel targeting the civilian population, That is savage.
Itamar massacre: Fogel family was butchered while sleeping, that is also savage.
January 27, 2002, Jerusalem, Israel. A Palestinian woman triggered a massive explosion in downtown Jerusalem killing one elderly Israeli and injuring more than 150, including American Mark Sokolow, his wife, and 16 and 12-year-old daughters. Sokolow had earlier survived the September 11 attack on the World Trade Center, escaping from his law office on the 38th floor of the South Tower before it collapsed. Again That is savage.
February 8, 2002, Jerusalem, Israel. Stabbing in Abu Tor Peace Forest Jerusalem. U.S. citizen killed: Moranne Amit, 25 and again That is savage.
February 15, 2002, near Ramallah, West Bank. Lee Akunis a US citizen was shot to death. That is savage.
February 16, 2002: Bombing in Karnei Shomron. U.S. citizens killed: Keren Shatsky, 14, of Brooklyn, NY and Maine, Rachel Thaler, 16, of Baltimore, MD. U.S. citizens injured: Lior Thaler, 14, of Baltimore, MD, Hillel Trattner of Chicago, IL, Ronit Yucht Trattner of Chicago, IL, Chani Friedman of New York. That is savage.
In the name of Jihad, The September 11 attacks were committed by 19 terrorists from the Islamist group al-Qaeda, The last words of the terrorists, it was Allah hu Akhbar when they came to kill 3,000 people. That was savage ! don’t you think so?
The Fort Hood shooting that took place on November 5, 2009, at Fort Hood,Texas. A single gunman Nidal Malik Hasan killed 13 people and wounded 29 others. He believed in Jihad, was it deplorable to you ?
This is only a partial list of crimes committed in the name of Jihad and those who believes in Jihad and supremacy of Islam kill innocent civilians.
19,250 Islamic attacks since 9/11” and states that “It’s not Islamophobia, it’s Islamorealism.”
What is hateful and morally repugnant are those who want to ignore this inconvenient fact by turning a blind eye.
Oliver Wendell Holmes, Sr. described bigotry in the following quotation: “The mind of a bigot is like the pupil of the eye; the more light you pour upon it, the more it will contract.
Thank you for taking the time to read this.

Do over 19,000 islamic jihad attacks indicate that this is a problem confined to just a fanatic “few” muslims? That so much violence is being committed routinely in the name of islam tells us in fact that the vast majority of the world’s muslims do not embrace peace, they support jihad. This mayor is douche.

Tommy Hunt

I believe all Muslims do in fact support jihad. Not in an overt manner of course but in a quiet, tacit kind of agreement. Muslims have always been notoriously silent on jihad and this is support. They are NOT speaking out against their fellow Muslims who are committing these awful crimes against the free world. And all Muslims, merely by being Muslim, support the Koran, an evil book sanctioning violence and hate against all who reject it’s teachings. I’m not suggesting that all Muslims are bad people – they aren’t. But let’s not pretend to believe in a good Islam – an Islam compatible with Western values – a peaceful Islam with peaceful Muslims actively stopping the so called “extremists” from inflicting jihad upon us all.
But even if I’m right (and I believe I am) what’s wrong with condemning a whole group of people supporting (overtly or tacitly) the overthrow of our country. What’s wrong with condemning a religion that is, at it’s root… evil? Because 1.5 people subscribe to it? Because it promotes “God”? It makes no sense. To oppose Geller’s ad as these people do, says to me they are either stunningly ignorant or haters of freedom… or maybe both.
