“‘My Jihad’ Ad Campaign Launched on SF Buses”

UPDATE: Like this page on Facebook here – and tell your friends. Post it on your pages and twitter feeds. And follow us on twitter @myjihadUS

The Hamas-CAIR #myjihad ad campaign, one of the most ridiculous and insulting to the intelligence of every American and freedom-loving human being, has now been posted in San Francisco. Hamas-CAIR launched this joke in Chicago last month. Our counter campaign (scroll below) was submitted in Chicago over three weeks ago and we are still awaiting approval (or rejection). But these tools can't get the Hamas-CAIR ads up fast enough. Bend over, boys. 

We have submitted the ad to San Francisco as well. Knowing what gutless wonders the officials of the SF transit authority are, this should prove interesting, I wouldn't be surprised if the SFMTA posted its own ads to counter ours, saying, "#myjihad is trying to keep AFDI's ads off our buses!"

According to the reporter, Laird Harrison, "the understanding of 'jihad' in English seems to be evolving." Tell that to the 270 million victims of jihadi wars, land appropriations, cultural annihilations and enslavements.

Harrison attempts to "broaden" the meaning of jihad, but as you can see, all the definitions pre-2001 refer to holy war. But the Islamic supremacist war in the information battle-space has been successfully launched. Imagine, they are passing off this garbage in post-911 America. It's appalling. Oceans of blood dismissed by these ghouls.

'My Jihad' Ad Campaign Launched on SF Buses" KQED, Janaury 3, 2013

What does "jihad" mean to you?

A "My Jihad" bus advertisement. (Council on American-Islamic Relations)

Concerned that many people misunderstand the term — and have
negative stereotypes of Muslims — the Council on American-Islamic
Relations has launched a an advertising campaign on San Francisco buses.

"Jihad is a central tenet of the Islamic creed which means struggling
uphill in order to get to a better place," CAIR said in a media
release.

"My Jihad is to build friendships across the aisle," the ads say. "What's yours?"

CAIR started the advertising partly to counter an earlier bus advertising campaign
by Pamela Geller. "In any war between the civilized man and the savage,
support the civilized man. Support Israel," said Geller's ads. "Defeat
jihad."

Muni began running Geller's ads in August after a federal judge ruled
that New York City had accept them on public transit there. The San
Francisco agency later posted its own ads on the same buses explaining that Muni disavowed Geller's message.

The CAIR campaign started last week in San Francisco, and as of Jan.
3, ads were circulating on the sides of 35 Muni buses, according to the
media release. It extends a similar campaign that began Dec. 11 in
Chicago.

The understanding of "jihad" in English seems to be evolving.

The 1895 book "A Dictionary of Islam" by Thomas Patrick Hughes gives this definition:

Lit. "An effort, or a striving." A religious war with
those who are unbelievers in the mission of Muhammad. It is an incumbent
religious duty, established in the Qur’an and in the Traditions as a
divine institution, and enjoined specially for the purpose of advancing
Islam and of repelling evil from Muslims.

My 1971 edition of the Compact Oxford English Dictionary similarly
defines jihad as "A religious war of Mohammedans against nonbelievers in
Islam, inculcated as a duty by the Koran and traditions."

But according to the 2010 book "Essential Islam: A Comprehensive Guide to Belief and Practice"
by Diane Morgan, "jihad" has long been used within the religion both to
mean an internal struggle and a fight against the enemies of Islam.

And the Free Online Dictionary gives three definitions:

1. Islam An individual's striving for spiritual self-perfection.

2. Islam A Muslim holy war or spiritual struggle against infidels.

3. A crusade or struggle: "The war against smoking is turning into a jihad against people who smoke" (Fortune).

Here's how the current campaign started, according to the media release:

Volunteers working on the campaign include activists and
students, but the crux of the volunteers have been a group of working
moms who are disturbed by the prospects of their children growing up in
an environment of gross misinformation about Islam that sometimes spills
into outright hatred such as with the recent anti-Islam ads sponsored
by Pamela Geller.

The CAIR campaign has a website and extends to Facebook, Youtube, and Twitter where users are asked to tweet about their own jihad #MyJihad hashtag.

Many tweets follow the spirit of the CAIR campaign, such as this one:

Alia Ganoub.
@3alia2_

Okay new intentions. #MyJihad for this month is to study harder and keep my prayers on time. Starting tomorrow.

3 Jan 13

But others tweets are taking a more critical tone, including this one from Pamela Geller:

Pamela Geller
@Atlasshrugs

#myjihad: Muslims in Nigeria murder 22 in jihad attacks, force Christians to convert to Islam on pain of death: … bit.ly/VR8yDu

Here are all the ads in our series:

The Truth Must be Told

Please take a moment to consider this. Now, more than ever, people are reading Geller Report for news they won't get anywhere else. But advertising revenues have all but disappeared.

Because never has the free world needed independent journalism more.

Everyone who reads our reporting knows the Geller Report covers the news the media won't. We cannot do our ground-breaking report without your support. We must continue to report on the global jihad and the left's war on freedom. Our readers’ contributions make that possible.

Geller Report's independent, investigative journalism takes a lot of time, money and hard work to produce. But we do it because we believe our work is critical in the fight for freedom and because it is your fight, too.

These low brows are not really fooling anyone…Any American who has not at least heard of jihad, lives in a remote cave…Most Americans are ignorant of Islam and don’t actually know what jihad is, know it has nothing to do with lifting weights…Unless the desire for fitness is to better wage some other form of jihad…

To just give one example of the results of someone who has put into practice the militant jihadism of Islam is the Fort Hood shooter. The picture of him is in the above article. For he yelled out “Allahu Akbar” all the while he was commiting those brutal and viscious acts of mass murder. This shooter was and is a jihadist. His religion inspired him and drove him to commit those cruel and cold blooded murderous actions.
Therefore, he is guilty of murder and likewise his religion, Islam, is also guilty of murder.

Haha!
This reminds me of the putrid arab TV commercial in which “covered” (gross!) women who presumably are, oh, fashion designers and scientists, smile as if they’re liberated and intact before their images decay into a green and yellow bilge with the narrator babbling some transparent hard-sell about “unlocking minds.” They think the sharia tyranny bullshit they can push on their own poor abused cow-eyed herds gets past a nation of free, educated, freedom-loving people like us. Now it’s only up to us to tell them that it doesn’t.

How do we encourage them to put up their ads in Gaza City and Kabul and Riyadh, etc.? Is CAIR sending flyers to all the mosques in the US? That might help too. /sarc

It all goes back to the Obama Administration. This article from IPT says it all.
“U.S.-led Global Counterterrorism Forum Excludes Israel
by IPT News • Dec 18, 2012 at 5:52 pm
A multilateral counter-terror initiative generated by the United States excludes Israel while featuring many states with terrorist ties. The Global Counterterrorism Forum (GCTF) has 30 founding members including Algeria, Saudi Arabia, Pakistan, Egypt, Indonesia, Morocco, Nigeria, Qatar, Turkey and the United Arab Emirates.
Israel’s exclusion is noteworthy, considering it is at the forefront of counterterrorism operations, constituting an unprecedented hub of expertise on the matter.
But including Israel would offend many of the GCTF’s founding members, many of which are sworn enemies of the Jewish state and actively finance and support terrorist operations against it”.

the CAIR (Council of Advancing Islamic Regimes) is not fooling me. we all saw 9/11 and thousnads of people (men and women, young and old, born and unborn) killed by 19 men who believed that JIHAD is to slay the idoltars whereevr they are (Quran 9.5) we all saw the Twin Towers, the Pentagon, and Flight 93 (intended for the Capitol Building). are they really making a joke or what?

The bombing of Pan Am 103 was their jihad.
The 1993 bombing of the WTC was their jihad.
The assassination of US Senator Robert F. Kennedy was their jihad.
The sneaker bomber reid was their jihad.
The underwear bomber was their jihad.
The 7/7/05 London bus and underground (subway) bombing was their jihad.
CAIR, you are full of S.H.I.T.

Girlfriend, I LOVE that you used the same colors that CAIR uses in their pathetic ads. So cheerful, so whimsical! So not the color of jihad.
And that girl in the top ad with the hijab and the pink top holding the weight and wearing nerd glasses couldn’t be any more unattractive if she tried. Islam just makes women look ugly and pathetic. I see that picture and I think sad little oppressed sex slave. She doesn’t motivate me one bit to find out what my positive “jihad” might be. Seriously, I’d rather go on a crusade. ; )

The (abhorrent) neo-nazi ‘The Guardian’ newspaper excusing paedophilia
The far leftwing media (‘enablers’) have just sunk to another all time low. The Guardian published (3rd Jan 2013) an article by Jon Henley, excusing paedophiles and paedophilia.
http://www.guardian.co.uk/society/2013/jan/03/paedophilia-bringing-dark-desires-light?CMP=twt_gu&commentpage=1
Do you see what we are up against in the UK? A sickness so vile, there is no vaccine! (Mind you, I could recommend a permanent ‘vaccine’, but it is not printable)(!!)
The Sun and The Telegraph have responded to the article.

The far leftwing/commies/marxists/neo-n’s co-habiting at The Guardian, have, for some time now, proved they have no moral compass, and are debased beings. Evil=Good. Those at The Guardian who sanctioned this disgusting piece, should resign forthwith, and take that nasty apologist Jon Henley with them..

Re: Benwell Towers/BAHR Academy/Newcastle/UK
I see the BAHR Academy, on their Twitter account: bahracademy, have Moazam Begg as a FRIEND (as well as a few other very dodgy characters/holocaust deniers/antisemites/terrorist supporters and radical islamic fundamentalists)
A reminder also of the Conflict of Interest as mentioned in post above.
(The muslim City Councillor in Newcastle, who has, right from the start, been very prominent with all things to do with this property ‘Benwell Towers’ (which has now been undersold to BAHR Academy), a Mr Dipu Sultan Ahad just so happens to be in partnership (company: ‘Pacific Reliance Limited’), with that of the (founder) Mufti of the BAHR Academy a Mr Muhammad Abdulmuheet.)
Is anyone bothering to look into this or what! Fgs, wake up.

Isabella, another fun twist would be to use the ugly girl in her dishonor clothes with the dumbell by her head, but dripping with blood. She could be saying,’ my jihad is to smash my abusive husbands brains in while he is sleeping.’ That’s my jihad.
The nerdy guy with the short shorts (that show his bony knees), his could be ‘training to sprint away after I honor murder my wife for working out and trying to improve herself.’That’s my jihad.

Madeleine, I like it girlfriend! As a Christian I am not an advocate for murder but I could totally get behind any Muslim woman who eliminates any marauding Muslim man who tries to kill or rape her. The problem is we need to get ALL Muslim women to do it so all those members of the Worship-the-Penis-Club will get the memo that they just simply cannot do this to women and get away with it.
I was reading in Fr. John Laux’ religion course entitled Catholic Morality the other day the following passage that applies here:
“A woman has the right to defend her virtue by taking the life, if need be, of the aggressor. One who threatens a woman’s honor not only violates her right to personal integrity, but also her right of natural independence.”
Heck yeah! Let the onslaught of bloody dumbells begin. ; )

My jihad is to keep writing parody songs about Islam. It’s a comical religion with horrific consequences, so I have to focus on the comedy aspect so the misogyny doesn’t make me bitter!
