Terrorists Wanted To Behead Her, And How She Just Responded Proves They Haven’t Won
In a Breitbart editorial published Friday, American Freedom Defense Initiative President Pamela Geller addressed the public calls for her execution following an event many Muslims found disrespectful. A ‘Draw Muhammad’ contest Geller organized earlier this year in Garland, Texas, was cut short when two protesters opened fire and were ultimately killed by police.
Geller has since been targeted by extremist Muslims who believe she should be beheaded for her role in planning the heretical event. Nevertheless, she insisted that the threats have not caused her to back down from her firmly held positions.
“I am the Islamic State’s target,” she wrote, “because I am, unlike most of the mainstream media, refusing to bow down to them and submit to their dictates. They want to make an example out of me in order to frighten the rest of the US into silence and submission – that is, to frighten those who have not already submitted.”
She acknowledged that the direct threats are scary, though she maintains that “it is far scarier to do nothing.”
According to Geller, the time has come for Americans who love freedom to stand up for our constitutional rights.
“This is a showdown for American freedom,” she asserted. “Will we stand against this savagery, or bow down to them and silence ourselves?”
Sounding the alarm for immediate action, Geller pointed out the fact that homegrown terrorists have been linked to flourishing mosques across America.
“Several surveys have shown that 80% of mosques in the U.S. teach hatred of infidels and the necessity to replace the Constitution with sharia,” she wrote. “No one cares.”
In fact, she criticized certain media outlets for manipulating the facts in reporting the Garland shooting with an apparent goal of downplaying the subsequent threats made against her. It appears from the reader comments left in response to her editorial, however, that there are plenty of Americans willing to join in her fight.
In response to a critical comment, one reader wrote:
You obviously don’t understand! We are ALREADY IN DANGER! She is simply trying to make everyone aware of said danger, even naïve uninformed fools like you.
