Exposing the role that Islamic jihad theology and ideology play in the modern global conflicts

Facebook blocks Pamela Geller (again) for reporting accurately on Islamic anti-Semitism in Germany

Apr 27, 2018 6:10 pm By Robert Spencer

Pamela Geller posted an accurate news story, accompanied by a genuine photo of two niqab-wearing Muslimas carrying a sign saying “God Bless Hitler” — a vivid, and sickening, illustration of Islamic antisemitism. For doing this, she has been blocked from posting at Facebook yet again, in what is just the latest indication of the social media giant’s determination to silence all voices that dissent from its hard-Left agenda.

Mark Zuckerberg recently claimed, risibly, that Facebook’s censors had no political bias. He actually had the audacity to say this in a Congressional hearing. No one asked him why Facebook’s Vice President Joel Kaplan traveled to Pakistan in July 2017 to assure the Pakistani government that it would remove “anti-Islam” material. That endeavor had already started before Kaplan’s trip. In mid-February 2017, traffic to Jihad Watch from Facebook dropped suddenly by 90% and has never recovered. And there are so many other sites that have experienced a similar dropoff.

This was no accident. It has happened to counter-jihad sites and others that oppose the hard-Left agenda across the board. Either Zuckerberg perjured himself, or has no control over his company.

If Facebook is not broken up by anti-trust initiatives or stopped in some other way, the First Amendment freedom of speech will soon be a completely dead letter.


“Facebook Blocks Pamela Geller (Again!) for Reporting on Muslim Anti-Semitism in Germany,” by Allum Bokhari, Breitbart, April 27, 2018:

Days after Facebook, along with Google and Twitter, refused to attend a congressional hearing on social media censorship, the social network banned the account of author and free speech activist Pamela Geller for 30 days after she posted an article about Muslim anti-Semitism in Germany.

Geller’s article said that “thanks to the hijrah” [Jihad by immigration] “Islamic antisemitism will drive the Jews out of Europe, succeeding in achieving Hitler’s dream — a judenrein Europe.”

The rest of the post featured an Associated Press article about a German Jewish leader advising Jews in the country to avoid wearing skullcaps in cities due to anti-Semitic attacks in the country.

At the congressional hearing on social media censorship this week, Democrats on the Judiciary Committee accused conservatives of believing a “conspiracy theory” about social media censorship. They claimed there is no pattern of bias against conservatives on major tech platforms.

And yet, the targeting of major figures on the right continues. This is not the first time Geller has been banned by Facebook for political posts. After the Islamic terrorist attack in Orlando, Florida in 2016, the social network banned both her personal account and one of her organizations, Stop Islamization of America.

Freedom Defence Initiative, another conservative organization run by Geller, was also banned by PayPal, along with Robert Spencer’s Jihad Watch, a site monitoring Islamic extremism. PayPal reversed their decision following a public backlash.

Finally, Twitter refused to enforce its content rules when Geller’s daughters were the targets of a vicious harassment campaign on the app. Many of the abusive tweets remain on their platform, their authors unpunished….

    Everything is infiltrated with bad people. Most people are blind to the fact. Left governments have to be eliminated before it is going to improve.

      The question is “why”? Answer …

      Satan, who is the god of this world, has blinded the minds of those who don’t believe. They are unable to see the glorious light of the Good News. They don’t understand this message about the glory of Christ, who is the exact likeness of God. – 2 Corinthians 4:4

      God bless.

        NEWSFLASH : FACEBOOK CONCEALS THE EXISTENCE OF JEW HATRED IN GERMANY!

        Elisha, Another possibility could be that some people have bought into the idea that Islam is a religion of peace, that criticism of Islam is an attack on all Muslims, is Islamophobic, is hate speech, and those who voice such evil ideas must be censored.

      It’s not only the Left, also the lazy Right is to blame for islamization of the West!

      “God bless hitler”???? These people aren’t Christians or Jews why would they want to call on God, who is foreign to their religion, to bless anyone. Sounds stupid to me. But stupidity breeds stupidity and these people are super breeders.

        Christians had better wake up to the fact that it is Jews today, us tomorrow. Of course, they are already massacring Christians, along with Hindus, moderate Muslims and anyone else they can butcher. “The religion of peace”! The peace of the grave.

    Would the muslima be punished for posting the photo of herself holding that filthy sign?!
    FB hears only what they want about Pamela. They would not help a muslim girl or woman trying to escape torture or worse.

    Pamela should go on House Judiciary Committee like Diamond and Silk to show how Facebook stifled the First Amendment.

    • RonaldB says

      It’s not appropriate to say Facebook is going against the first amendment, which says: “Congress shall make no laws …”

      So, a private group censoring speech is not a constitutional issue.

      And by wanting Congress to regulate the content of an information provider like Facebook: that is actually completely against the first amendment.

      I don’t like it either, but logic is logic.

        True–this is still appalling, but Facebook is a private company.

    Young kid, lots of power, easily seduced by the Left, what does anyone expect?

    • Ted Tyler says

      I would expect Zuckerberg to make an attempt to get his facts straight.

    • Westman says

      Apr 28, 2018 at 10:20 am

      “Either Zuckerberg perjured himself, or has no control over his company.”

      This is the reality. The time has long passed when the founders of today’s social media giants are personally writing the computer programs for their platforms. Filtering content was a minor requirement at the outset that has now become crucial to maintaining revenue. This requires the full attention of mature adults having no political bias or so-called Artificial Intelligence programs with equivalent abilities4. Since neither unbiased humans or truly intelligent machines exist, the filtering contains the bias of its creators.

      Zuckerberg is no more in control of Facebook filtering than Trump is in control of shadow government and should he indicate that he was, that would be questionable. It’s worth noting that Zuckerberg only cites the efforts of “Facebook” to filter content and never cites himself – likely due to legal advice to avoid personal responsibility for rogue employee actions.

    Facebook must be run by idiots. By doing what they’re doing, they’re making it very obvious that they’re trying to conceal what they clearly know is a hideously ugly truth about these muslims, which means they are knowingly supporting people capable of this sort of obscenity, know it’s wrong and being utterly two-faced about it – and expect to get away with it because they’re big enough and rich enough. They need to learn a lesson ir two.

    A Jew is banned for trying to expose
    anti-Semitism.

    The injustice leaves me speechless.

    Not surprising. Hitler is a hero in de islamic world. Take a stroll in Caïro, on every corner ‘bookstores’ have their wares spread out on the pavement. Among cartoons and other books you can find the usual anti jewish hate books. Cartoons of jews bathing in dollars, with blond whores, jews with hooked noses, Jews who hold the globe out for world domination. The usual anti-semitic stuff which we know of the third reich. Spoke with a Egyptian friend one time. Didn’t know he had the same opinions. Explained to him what Hitler had done in the Netherlands Europe in 40-45. Don’t think i convinced him.

      Every time I see that “God bless Hitler” sign, I know that islam’s god is not the same god other monotheists worship (unless you include Satan). I am also beginning to understand why fascists Left and Right find it so easy to empathize with islam (if you throw out reason and objectivity).

    This is tricky. If I am bed person, who likes to block Pamela, I will report Hatred Speech against Ethic group. The BLess Hitler is the frase that was blocked. Not pamela repirt.
