Lies vs. truth: Pamela Geller debates pro-jihad “journalist”

Jul 30, 2014 3:19 pm By Robert Spencer

    Interesting….. a Muslim woman named Catherine, working for Iran and arguing from London for the right of the inhabitants of Gaza to wipe out the people of Israel. Very multi-cultural indeed.

      That struck me, too, CogitoErgoSum.

      I haven’t been able to find any specific information on this, but I wouldn’t be surprised if Catherine Shakdam is a dhimmified Christian—or perhaps like British-Iranian dhimmi Christiane Amanpour, who has a Muslim father and a Christian mother.

      Certainly, it would be difficult to imagine a mainstream Muslimah with such a Christian name as “Catherine”.

        She may also have been an Infidel who married a Muslim—probably an Iranian. I don’t know why I didn’t consider the obvious.

        Reading Mary Gonzales’ post below made me go “d’oh!”…

    If the Pali-ess was trying to persuade, being a mile-a-minute motor mouth doesn’t do.

      This is also possible, Mary—she may be an Infidel who *married* a Muslim, then “reverted”.

    Israel has the right to defend themselves from Hamas who are consistently Attacking Israel by firing hundreds of rockets on Israeli citizens and because the death toll is higher for Palestinian than Israel. By the way, this mainly because they don’t have high tech weaponry and Israel “defense anti-missiles” intercept and destroys many of their rockets before they land and kill Israeli civilians and when Israel warns Palestinian Hamas before striking their target, instead of Hamas warning his own citizens, they don’t so they’re used as human shield because Hamas hides behind his citizens (mothers & children) in order to avoid “Air Strike” by Israeli defense. They also shamelessly store their explosives (Missiles) in public school again, in order to avoid air strike by Israel. Hamas Radical Militants are the Number #1 Reason Why Palestinian Citizen Dies Because Like I Said:
    #1) Hamas are the ones who doesn’t stop attacking Israel while screaming for the destruction of Jews & Israel.
    #2) Hamas puts his own citizens in grave danger by storing missiles and other weaponry in public places like school, library, etc in order to avoid air strike.
    #3) Hamas uses “human shield” by hiding behind his own citizens when firing many rockets at Israel in order to avoid air strike by Israeli defense.
    In Both Situation #2 & #3, Hamas use it as a “Militant Strategy” because they know that if Israel defense decide to air strike several Hamas members hiding behind his own Palestinian Citizens so it will kill innocent civilians and as a result it will “Create A Public Outcry”!

    Catherine Skakam is such a smarmy liar. She hates the west, but i’m sure she’s first in line to cash her welfare and state benefits checks

    REPEAT THIS FAR AND WIDE: “The day non-Muslims can live peacefully and freely in Mecca and ex-Muslims are permitted to live peacefully without fear of homicidal Muslims guided by sharia law, is the day I’ll start listening to Muslims.”

    While listening to Pamela Geller destroy the arguments of the Muslim who goes by the name of Catherine, I could not help but reflect once again that none of the tragic and criminal nonsense that has been going on since 1948 (actually even before this date) would have occurred but for the desire, the dysfunctional and pathological desire, of the Arab Muslim world to have no Jewish state whatsoever, even though some 78% of the British Mandate for Palestine was turned into the no-Jews-allowed Transjordan in the early 1920s and only a bit more than half of of the remaining 22% was allotted to the Jews per the 1947 UN partition plan (primarily because the Jews were assigned the beautiful but barren Negev as part of their “share”), a plan which the Jews accepted but which the Arab Muslim world did not because it wants no Israel at all. Never has.

    Shame on the collective Muslim world for the mess which is the Middle East. I put 100% of the blame for this on Muslims. Yes, 100%. And, as a clincher here, how telling that Israeli-Arab Muslims have far more rights than do Arabs in ANY of the over twenty Arab nations. A stunning fact I contend, a fact which only the ignorant or the malevolent will not address even though it shouts out at them to be addressed——–but in my experience they will never address this laudable reality that exists. Well, just more shame on their collective head.

    Bravo Pamela Geller!

    Catherine Shakdam is a smarmy liar, and the only time she ever criticizes Muslim savagery is when it is done by Sunnis—she is a complete apologist for the Shia and for bloody Islam. She is also a nasty antisemite—no surprise there.

    • Wellington says

      Jul 30, 2014 at 7:48 pm

      Agreed, gravenimage. This Catherine person is of no help, none at all, to liberty and those tandential things (e.g., equality under the law) which are buttresses to liberty. Indeed, she is a hindrance to such.

      Instructive—highly I would argue—that Muslims are invaribaly on the side of monstrous sentiments and actions. That Islam still retains the respect of much of the world is actually the greatest indicator of the absurdity of our times. It even makes me wonder, now and then, if that old and legendary French clown, Scaramouche, wasn’t right after all, to wit, that it is best to go through life retaining a sense of humor in a world which is mad.

      As always, I hope you and yours are well. I must say that I still remain confident that the truth about the hideous religion which is Islam will win out in the end, but it’s going to be a close call, which close call is thanks more to ignorance of Islam rather than to Islam itself. Ah, ignorance is the greatest ally of wickedness in the final analysis. Take good care, my West Coast friend, courtesy of an East Coaster.

        Same to you, Wellington. And thank you for your kind words from July 6th—I no longer recall the thread, but for some reason the date sticks with me.

        In any case, it meant a lot to me.

        Hope everyone on your end is doing great.

    Palestinians did not ask for an attack? No of course the Palestinian people didn’t ask to have missiles thrown at them. Is anyone saying they did? That’s NOT the point. The point is that Israel has agreed to every ceasefire and that HAMAS has broken every ceasefire! HAMAS started this! Give me a break. Israel created this monster? There are not enough words in any language to describe the absolute nonsense and despicable twisting of the truth by this woman Catherine. And, for that matter, the twisting of the truth that is happening every single day on the news and by all media! Why are they purposely misrepresenting Israel to the world! They need to stop and I pray that people do research and discover the TRUTH for themselves, rather than listening to the garbage that is being spoonfed to us all!

    Anyone can see that all of the video news clips that have come out of Gaza only show them as victims. The one here showing men holding sheet-covered bodies (?) marching along the street like they were posing for the cameras is very typical. I remember a similar march years ago in the West Bank where men holding coffins were marching along and one of the coffins fell, breaking appart empty.

    Have any news video come out over the last month showing Hamas operatives actually firing rockets, marching through their tunnels holding their AK47s, grenades, etc.? It seems that part of the media war and game plan is to play the Hamas “victim card,” knowing that the EU/UN will eat it up like starving tigers. In the past, they were so proud to show their kid’s summer camps being used as military training centers. Israel’s free press lets us see their soldiers, tanks, and jets, along with victims and Hamas rockets – a much more balanced and honest picture.

    Strange that Iran’s press TV never shows the 3 to 5 thousand Iranians waiting everyday outside the Turkish Embassy in Tehran for a Tourist Visa.A recent poll by Germany’s Der Spiegel has 10 to 15 million Iranians leaving Iran if they were allowed to.Big surprise,Evil Iran

    It is in the Qur’an
    Are Muslims allowed the option of NOT hating Jews?
    Doe Allah coincidentally also hate the Jews?
    The Qur’an is just a self-serving excuse.

      The mohamedans should repeatedly experience what each and every one of their exercises in futility are all about.
