THE OTHER WEEKEND HATE GATHERING: PAMELA GELLER'S WTC WHINEFEST ON 9/11

GellerPamela Geller and Robert Spencer did not have the numbers they had last year when they spent all summer demonizing Park51, the Islamic Cultural Center in Lower Manhattan. In fact according to the live tweeting from Imagine 2050, the 300 that turned out was eventually cut in half as people left. The best part to us is the fact that the not-so-dynamic duo, as expected, did not launch their anti-Jihad flotilla like kept saying they wanted to. Geller and Spencer have been having nothing but heartache since the Andre Brievik, the self-admitted Oslo shooter, cited them as an inspiration, and Geller’s lunacy definitely drives a lot of people away (if they don’t work for Fox News, apparently). And props are given to those that came out to oppose the hate rally. They were kept two blocks away, but the message from them resonated much more than what Geller and Spencer had to push.

The New Civil Rights Movement

On Sunday, September 11, Pamela Geller and her merry band of Islamophobists, “Stop Islamization of America,” appeared at Ground Zero and held an anti-​Muslim hate rally demanding there be “No Ground Zero Mosque.” The tenth anniversary of the 9/​11 terrorist attacks actually brought several disparate groups to New York City’s Ground Zero World Trade Center Memorial: the two certified anti-​gay, anti-​Islam, anti-​America, anti-​Obama hate groups, God Hates Fags and Stop Islamization of America, which shared downtown NYC with the peace-​loving Quakers.

Yes, the Quakers.

God Hates Fags was recently in the news after claiming they would fly to Oslo to picket the funerals of those murdered in Oslo on July 22 by Anders Behring Breivik, the Norway shooter, and attended the National Organization For Marriage anti-​gay marriage equality hate rally in midtown Manhattan in July.

Atlas Shrugs blogger Pamela Geller’s protest, Orwellianly monikered a “9/​11 Freedom Rally,” on this important day says a lot about her patriotism. The New Civil Rights Movement recently reported that Geller, a fascist who has issued an ironic “Threat to Freedom Index,” has been accused of scrubbing her blog for all evidence of her past association with — you guessed it — Anders Behring Breivik. Ah, yes, it’s a small world after all. God Hates Fags, NOM, the National Organization For Marriage, and Pamela Geller, all one big happy family, united in hate.

Geller’s trip to the Ground Zero World Trade Center Memorial, where she preached against Islam and protested the building of Cordoba House, aka the Ground Zero Mosque, conveniently coincided with the New York City première of her “documentary,” The Ground Zero Mosque: The Second Wave of the 911 Attacks. Geller describes her (other?) group, American Freedom Defense Initiative (AFDI), which, along with her Stop Islamization of America group, also exists to curtail the First Amendment freedoms of Muslim-​Americans, as — get this! — a “human rights organization!”

To boot, Market Watch, an arm of Rupert Murdoch’s Wall Street Journal, actually last week printed a press release from Geller that falsely claims, “while White House guidelines forbid official 9/​11 ceremonies from mentioning who attacked the U.S. on that day or why, the 9/​11 Freedom Rally features more honest speakers,” and also falsely stated:

While clergy, 9/​11 first responders, and 9/​11 family members are barred and/​or not invited to the official ceremonies, all are welcome at the 9/​11 Freedom Rally.

Those groups were not “barred” from attending, except perhaps in Geller’s twisted mind.

Geller also falsely claimed, “Members of the clergy [were] banned from the official ceremonies.” No, they merely were not invited to speak. Big difference.

Geller’s press release also falsely claimed, “Building the Ground Zero mosque is not an issue of religious freedom, but of resisting an effort to insult the victims of 9/​11 and to establish a beachhead for political Islam and Islamic supremacism in New York.”

Last week, at fellow right-​wing extremist Andrew Breitbart’s Big Government, Geller wrote, “Barack Obama declared that September 11 is a day of service, and encouraged everyone to get in on it: ‘There are so many ways to get involved,’ he said, ‘and every American can do something.’ He added: ‘Even the smallest act of service, the simplest act of kindness, is a way to honor those we lost; a way to reclaim that spirit of unity that followed 9/​11.’

True to his authoritarian leanings, Obama isn’t just hoping Americans get involved in this, either. Now schoolchildren are being indoctrinated, too.

The calls for service on September 11 are inappropriate and sacrilegious. September 11 is a national day of mourning. It should not be a day of service, but of remembrance for those who died in a surprise military strike against the United States of America conducted by the military wing of the global jihad, resulting in the largest loss of life from domestic terrorism in American history.

Is Pearl Harbor a day of service? D-​Day? This is wrong. Septembe
r 11 is not about service; it is about honoring our war dead. This is deeply offensive. This is part of the relentless campaign to whitewash 9/​11 and distract from the terrible reality of the day that forever changed this country.

This once again illustrates the huge void Obama has in his thinking. He cannot fake a love for his country, nor does it appear that he wants to. The man is missing a chip.

Because service to America honoring three thousand who died is a bad thing? So thinks the self-​serving Geller, with her unique, special brand of patriotism. The Founding Fathers must be rolling in their graves upon the mere mention of her name.

NYC-​based comedian, actor, and political commentator, John Fugelsang – who sports a pretty impressive bio – took all the images in this article, and very generously allowed The New Civil Rights Movement to use them. Speaking about both hate groups, God Hates Fags and Geller’s Stop Islamization of America, Fugelsang told us, “Fundamentalists of all religions are the problem.
