Metro installs pro-Israel ads that equate radical Muslims with savages ABC TV
Metro in the process of installing a series pro-Israel ads across the transit system Monday that equates Muslim radicals with savages. The pro-Israel ads read, “In any war between the civilized man and the savage, support the civilian man. Support Israel. Defeat Jihad.”
One ad will be posted in the Takoma, Glenmont, Georgia Avenue and U Street Metro stations. They will be displayed by 5 p.m. Monday, Metro spokesman Dan Stessel says.
“Everyone won't agree with it,” says Metro rider Josephine Bremkpa. “It's going to incense people, make them want to react in some kind of way.”
The Islamic advocacy group, CAIR, says is planning to arrange for Metro ads promoting tolerance.
“It's designed to incite, it's designed to provoke, it's designed to stigmatize American Muslims,” says Ibrahim Hooper of CAIR.
Metro fought the ads, fearing they could spark violence. But a federal judges ruled in favor of them, citing freedom of speech.
U.S. District Judge Rosemary Collyer said in a one-page opinion Friday that the advertisement must be displayed no later than 5 p.m. on Monday.
The American Freedom Defense Initiative sued last month for the right to display the ads in the Metro system.
Metro officials had delayed putting up the ads up because of the violent reaction in the Middle East to the video the "Innocence of Muslims," which denigrated the prophet Muhammad.
The posters, also up in New York and San Francisco, have been covered with graffiti or had some words removed.

Insult Christians? Leftists cry, “Free speech!”
Insult Muslims, “Words hurt. Hate speech!”
But these are Obama’s people who are “incensed”.
Look at his Arab Spring, MB, mideast, and their savage acts which cost American lives.
The signs are right
but then again, maybe it's an insult to savages.

Jihad, jihad...
I like John Alembillah Azumah’s definition of Jihad from a historical perspective... from
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lh8h2Iw4UAM
“There is nothing holy about these wars (Jihad) which are primarily to plunder , slaughter, rape, subjugate and rob other human beings of their wealth, produce, freedom and dignity...Mohameddan muslim states and tribes attacked other non muslim groups to achieve these objectives.”
Traditionally, they are merciless raiders who follow their mercenaries handbook on raiding, looting, raping etc etc... the Koran.
What is this, that radical Muslims are “equated” with savages?
They are savages. Radical Muslims ARE the dictionary definition of the word. Totally unchecked emotions, gifted with a memory of every slight made upon their whole ethnicity, and totally without conscience in dealings with other human beings or brute animals. And not much aptitude for negotiation either.
If the shoe fits.
I'm so sick and tired of hearing CAIR and other muslim advocates crying for tolerance, when the problem is that it's the muslim intolerance that causes all the problems!

On another thread, moslems are not allowed to live in Japan. Zero tolerance!
“Ethnicity’’? When did Islam become a race?
Ethnicity is a term that covers so much more than “race”. It refers to the whole of religion, language, and in some degree, implanted prejudices and opinions that are inoculated at a very early age.
Islam is all these, though they may be Farsi, Arabic, Kurds, Pashtuns, Uzbeks, Paks or Indonesians, all different genotypes and some of which, are deeply inimical to each other. The people of Morocco, vaguely considered to be “Arabic” (mostly because they speak a dialect of the language), are in fact Berbers, a desert people there long before the spread of Islam to that part of the world, and probably more directly descended from the original Egyptians, with Roman admixture.
