Pamela Geller: Media jihad: Diet Coke vs. decapitation
“A blatantly revealing moment of radical media activism, otherwise known as ‘news coverage.'”
“Media jihad: Diet Coke vs. decapitation,” by Pamela Geller, WND, June 7, 2015:
Last week brought us a blatantly revealing moment of radical media activism, otherwise known today as “news coverage.”
Two news stories. In one, an American was targeted for beheading by members of the American Muslim community because the target would not adhere to the blasphemy laws under the Shariah. I was the target, and this was the media coverage:
“CNN’s Erin Burnett asks Pamela Geller: Don’t You Really Relish All These Muslim Terrorists Trying to Kill You?”
“Activist says Boston beheading plot targeted her; police express doubt”
“Who is anti-Islamic activist Pamela Geller?”
“Pamela Geller Calls Allegedly Being Targeted for Beheading by Terror Suspect ‘Chilling’”
The depraved media have tried to distract and obfuscate the real story here, which is that ISIS and its devout followers in America are targeting for death Americans on our home soil. I have been targeted for assassination twice in just four weeks. The headline Reuters ran, “Activist says Boston beheading plot targeted her; police express doubt,” is false and vicious.
Meanwhile, Associated Press ran the truth on Friday: “Police confirm Pamela Geller was initial target of Boston Muslims’ jihad terror plot.”
The other news story: A 31-year-old terror-tied Muslim woman went on social media and decried United Airlines for not giving her a can of Diet Coke in the way that she demanded: unopened. Under the hashtag #IslamophobiaIsReal, she wrote: “I am sitting on a United Airlines flight in the air 30,000ft above and I am in tears of humiliation from discrimination. The flight attendant asked me what I would like to drink and I requested a can of diet coke. She brought me a can that was open so I requested an unopened can due to hygienic reasons.”
A fellow passenger claimed that Diet Coke Muslim Tahera Ahmad was a rude liar. Other passengers fear coming forward for fear of being publicly smeared as Islamophobic! Bigoted! Racist! – even though Islam is not a race.
Heads exploded in an Islamophobia-fueled frenzy in newsrooms everywhere.
The New York Times covered only one of these two stories. Guess which one. In fact, it ran three stories about this Muslima supremacist’s whining complaint (since proven false) that the reason she could only get a full cup of Diet Coke and not an unopened can was because of Islamofauxbia. While it lavished coverage upon the Diet Coke jihad, the New York Times did not cover the beheading plot at all.
This became national and international news – the media were outraged at United Airlines. The National Catholic Register declared: “Fight Islamophobia in America.”
“Muslim Woman Says She Faced Discrimination on United-Linked Flight” – New York Times
“Islamophobia in the skies: United Airlines bans accused worker” – The Guardian, London
“United fires attendant who told Muslim Tahera Ahmad she couldn’t have Diet Coke” – Daily Mail, London
“United Airlines apologizes to Northwestern chaplain …” – Chicago Tribune
“‘There is no middle ground in racism:’ On Tahera Ahmad” – Fusion
Islam is not a race.
“Muslim chaplain: Derogatory remarks made on United flight” – Boston Herald
“Don’t ask for a soda can on United Airlines if you are a Muslim” – The Express Tribune (Pakistan)
Meanwhile, who is Tahera Ahmad? In late December, she attended the MAS-ICNA, or Muslim American Society-Islamic Circle of North America, conference, which featured prominent Muslim leaders with links to the Muslim Brotherhood.
One month earlier, Ahmad posted a picture to Facebook of her with Suhaib Webb, who was then Imam of the Islamic Society of Boston, where Boston Marathon jihadis Dzhokhar and Tamerlan Tsarnaev and many other jihadis worshiped. Webb was once a friend of Anwar al-Awlaki.
Ahmad is also “well-known” to Yasir Qadhi, a Muslim cleric who once called for jihad against non-Muslims. She was part of a Muslim Public Affairs Council, or MPAC, delegation to the Obama White House; MPAC was founded by Muslim Brotherhood members. She has recited the Quran at an Islamic Society of North America convention; ISNA is yet another Muslim Brotherhood-linked group.
United’s first statement, now erased from the web, said the flight attendant “attempted several times to accommodate Ms. Ahmad’s beverage request.” The flight attendant has been fired after the media-waged jihad against United.
I expect this from the media, but I will never fly United again.
And as for the enemedia, they are aligned with the jihad force, and their mission is to destroy the few who dare speak candidly about the jihad threat.
