It’s very strange. Eugene Volokh writes about this ruling in the Washington Post, in a piece entitled, “Transit agency may reject factually false ads.” What in our AFDI ad is factually false? Volokh quotes this from the ruling: Plaintiffs’ proposed ad states, in prominent text: “The FBI Is Offering Up To $25 Million Reward If […]
Florida Muslim in Islamic State WMD plot worked in secure areas at Key West International Airport
It’s not clear whether Suarez was already a Muslim when he began working at Key West International Airport or if he converted while he was working there, but it’s the same in either case: his supervisors wouldn’t have dared try to ascertain whether or not he had any jihadist sympathies. To make such inquiries would […]
AFDI’s free speech suit against MBTA heads to the Supreme Court
Our battle to defend and protect the freedom of speech continues, while most Americans have no idea how seriously it is imperiled. “MBTA’s Rejection of Anti-Jihad Ads Heads to Supreme Court,” American Freedom Law Center, July 28, 2015: Yesterday (July 27, 2015), the American Freedom Law Center (AFLC), filed a petition in the U.S. Supreme […]
Time Mag: Muhammad cartoons “make Muslims feel less safe”
Jordan Denari is a “Research Fellow at Georgetown University’s Center for Muslim-Christian Understanding, where she works for the Bridge Initiative, a research project on Islamophobia.” She works with Nathan Lean, the gutter thug who has repeatedly posted on Twitter what he thinks is my home address and places he thinks I frequent, in a nakedly […]
Clear Channel runs ad praising Muhammad, refuses ad criticizing Muhammad
As I wrote recently, Muhammad is now the man we all must love. Clear Channel, as my AFDI colleague Pamela Geller explains here, shows what that means: they readily accepted the Muslim Brotherhood group ICNA’s deceptive ad about Muhammad, but refused our ad critical of Muhammad, and even refused our ad quoting Muhammad from mainstream […]
Third Muslim arrested in jihad attack on AFDI Garland free speech event
“The indictment indicates that Kareem took the shooters — Elton Simpson and Nadir Soofi — to practice shooting and gave them assault rifles.” Clearly this was planned for a considerable time, and these jihad murderers are likely to have chosen a soft target. “Third Man Arrested in Garland ‘Draw Muhammad’ Shooting: Authorities,” by Todd L. […]
Islamic jihadists tweet Pamela Geller’s home address, call for her murder
Islamic jihadists want to make an example of Pamela Geller, showing that they will enforce Sharia’s death penalty for blasphemy upon non-Muslims with impunity.

Assassin’s veto: Washington Transit Authority shuts down free speech, suspends all issue-related ads
We had submitted our winning Muhammad cartoon to run on Washington, DC buses. This was obviously not to endanger people, but to determine whether American authorities would have the will to defend free speech rights, or would surrender in the face of threats of violence. The decision has been made. Here is an important message […]
AFDI/JW Muhammad Cartoon Contest winner Bosch Fawstin: “The Garland attack is a litmus test”
“The Garland attack is a litmus test, and we have a clearer picture of who is ready to fight and who has already submitted to the enemy’s sharia restrictions.” Indeed so. It has been a defining moment in so many ways. The battle-lines for the defense of freedom are being drawn, and many who had […]
