The clowns on the 9th Circuit court have ruled that an FBI global terrorism want ad poster cannot run because it might upset Muslims.
Back in 2013, the FBI was running a terrorism awareness campaign featuring bus ads depicting photos of sixteen of the world’s Most Wanted Terrorists.
Story continues below advertisement
This was a publicity campaign sponsored by the Joint Terrorism Task Force for the State Department’s Rewards for Justice (RFJ) program. The ad featured the world’s leading global terrorists. All but one were Muslim. Islamic supremacists and their leftist lapdogs demanded the want-ad come down, claiming it was insulting to Muslims. The FBI caved and pulled the Seattle-area bus ads featuring the “Faces of Global Terrorism” after receiving complaints “that the ads stereotype Muslims.”
My organization, AFDI, believed this public awareness message was critical to national security and should run. We are constantly being clubbed with the “moderate Muslim” meme, so why would they object? Why would “moderate Muslims” provide cover for jihad-terror? Why indeed.
AFDI submitted a carbon copy of the FBI to run on Seattle transit. The cowards at Seattle King Metro refused to run the ad, claiming it was disparaging to Muslims. Reality is disparaging to Muslims?
We sued Seattle King Metro. The liberal-fascists in Seattle sided with the supremacists. We appealed to the clowns on the notorious 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals. They, as expected, ruled in favor of sharia and supremacism.
We will appeal to the US Supreme Court.
Of all the free speech legal battles I am embroiled in, this one is the most absurd. It illustrates the crippling submission and capitulation of government authorities to Islamic supremacist demands.
“Senseless in Seattle: Pamela Geller anti-terror ad causes new fireworks”
The headline reads “anti-Muslim” when in fact we are anti-jihad, but quisling members of the mainstream media can’t say that — because most folks are anti-jihad.
“Federal court: Anti-Muslim group can’t post ads on buses,” By Martha Bellisle, The Associated Press via Seattle Times, August 12, 2015
A federal appeals court has upheld a ruling against an anti-Muslim group that wanted to post advertisements on King County Metro buses.
SEATTLE (AP) — A federal appeals court says an anti-Muslim group can’t post ads on Washington state buses showing photos of terrorists and saying the FBI offers a $25 million reward for their capture.The 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals on Wednesday rejected the claim by the American Freedom Defense Initiative that King County violated its free-speech rights.
The group sought to display an ad with 16 photographs and a “Faces of Global Terrorism” tagline. King County Metro Transit rejected it, saying the ad failed to meet its policy guidelines, which include that ads be accurate.
The court agreed that the FBI claim was false, saying the bureau doesn’t offer rewards and the State Department offers only $5 million for the capture of a pictured terrorist.

Political Correct suicide by the most Liberal Court in the world. Too bad we lost 300,000 men in the Pacific to keep the Japanese from taking the West Coast. America
would be better with out it. They’re all Communist anyway.

Yeah, all the hundreds or thousands of witnesses who saw two 757’s hit the twin towers were just hallucinating, as were the thousands of peeps who personally saw the mountains of rubble where the twin towers were. So where did those 4 757’s go on 9-11? Mars? Where did the passengers on-board those planes go? Saturn?

I have just sent an email to editor at the Seattle Times:

Subject: Martha Bellisle
Ms Best,
In the following story today by Martha Bellisle,
http://www.seattletimes.com/seattle-news/appeals-court-rules-against-anti-muslim-group-over-metro-bus-ads/
both in the title and the body of the article repeatedly
refers to the American Freedom Defense Initiative, AFDI, as an ‘anti-Muslim’ group.
It is by definition and by fact an anti-jihad group that has
no animus towards Muslims.
How can you print these smears, not even couched in
‘alleged’, which are indicative of yellow journalism.
Shouldn’t your newspaper report facts, not smears?
In addition, it is the policy of the US federal government,
that so-called Islamist Jihadis and other terrorists are not Muslim, but are
Violent Extremists.
Please respond.
Thank you,

I heard from some that the FBI use to collaborate with the Longshoremen and Mafia to catch Nazis as they entered the U.S. by port during WW2. Perhaps the FBI can bypass the Courts today by hiring “consultants ” and “contractors” again during WW3. Judges should be made fully aware this is WW3.

Actually I can’t make up my mind if the ninth circuit is muslim supremacist or islamophobic. What’s the difference between posting these pictures or the pictures of public enemy number one? Or the ten most wanted? Or any pictures of any criminals on the run every day??? It’s offensive now to report a crime??? Are they saying muslims don’t want you to report terrorism????
Uh… Yeah… Sounds islamophobic to me.

The Media labels the AFDI every time to obfuscate and deflect from from the central character in the article. We need to some incorporate in the quotes given so that it can’t be edited out “Hamas supporting CAIR” “unindicted co-conspirator CAIR” “terror listed organization CAIR in the UAE”. There must be a way to interweave this into a quote whereby it won’t be possible to remove

“The court agreed that the FBI claim was false, saying the bureau doesn’t
offer rewards and the State Department offers only $5 million for the
capture of a pictured terrorist.”
Your own article states the reason for the rejection which doesn’t jibe with your “The liberal-fascists in Seattle sided with the supremacists. We appealed to the clowns on the notorious 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals. They, as expected, ruled in favor of sharia and supremacism.”
Obviously, your ad isn’t accurate. Fix the inaccuracies, and problem solved, no?
I also wonder why you want to run this ad in Seattle. Do you think any of these terrorists reside in the United States and that people in Seattle will track them down? What’s your point, really? I’m not defending the terrorists. I honestly am curious as to why you are spending money on something that isn’t going to accomplish anything concrete.
Accurate information on terrorists and rewards is readily available, so there is no excuse for getting it wrong.

Why should someone have to justify their reasoning for running an ad, whether in Seattle or elsewhere?? Maybe it’s to wake people up to the fact that,notwithstanding the Muslim-in-Chief and the rest of his minions prattling on that ‘Islam has nothing to do with terrorism’, that the vast majority of these terrorists are Muslim.

Actually, you should do a little research. The Rewardsforjustice has an ‘up to $25 million reward’ for one of these scumbag terrorists so if she had said that the State Dept was offering this would the ad have been OK in your eyes? Or is this still ‘insulting’ to Muslims?

If someone captured one of them, would they receive a reward, if so Pam has provided a valuable service.
It is unconstitutional to prevent citizens from performing a valuable public service

I think that nine out of ten judges should be summarily removed from the bench, since they are nothing but puppets of the left! True justice is a joke to them; if you doubt my assessment, and if you live in Washington State, just drop in on any Family Court in progress and you will totally see what anti-family, anti-mother institutions they really are! You will be disgusted, I promise! The great northwest is very beautiful, but is sadly a liberal enclave; actually, this can be said about the entire west (left) coast….what a waste!

Y’all might be glad to hear this, as I am….the Holy Bible describes very clearly events that will be upcoming in the near future! Biblical Prophesy totally spells out how World War 111 will come about, and it’s a whole lot closer than many think! This is not the same as the War of Armageddon, which is a little further down the road. It will be during that time that God Almighty is going to directly intervene, since that battle signals the end of the age, during which time EVERY jihadist will be utterly destroyed, and the description of it is pretty gruesome! The Bible, in the book of Revelation, tells how their faces will melt, how their eyeballs will then drop back into their skulls, and how their tongues will cleave to the roofs of their mouths from intense heat (must be nuclear), and how the flesh of their entire bodies will melt right off even as they stand! EEEW! That ain’t good! In the end, these muslims will definately get what’s coming to them! Even yesterday, they blew up a little baby just to demonstrate their latest suicide-bomber apparatus….these “people” are totally sub-human!!
