They’ll run these ads, but they wouldn’t run my ads quoting Muhammad, the awesome prophet of Islam.
Back in June 2016, I reported that we were starting a new ad campaign to run on London taxis. It consisted simply of quotes from Muhammad, such as “I have been made victorious through terror.”
Here is a photoshopped mockup of how the ads were supposed to look:
Story continues below advertisement
I signed contracts and paid in full on May 13, 2016. On that day, we released an announcement: AFDI- Taxi Supersides Contract Between Media Agency Group and Pamela Geller is Signed and Filed!
On June 27, I wrote to John: “John, Please confirm that the ads are up and running today.” On June 28, I received an email from Gabrielle Conneely of Transport Media, saying “All taxis are now posted and on the road.”
But here’s the thing: the ads never ran.
Transport Media lied. They said that hundreds of our ads were running on London taxis. When I asked for proof of placement – environmental shots of taxis bearing the ads on London streets – they stopped answering my emails.
If the ads had been running, there would have been an uproar in the dhimmi British media. The Guardian would have been furious that we dared to insult Muhammad by quoting his exact words.
Also, don’t you think that if the ads had been running, every Muslim cabbie in London (i.e., every cabbie in London) would have been on strike and up in arms (some literally) and refusing to drive, or peeling off the ads, etc.?
But there was nothing. Not one word.
The ads never ran. These perfidious Albionites lie to you and take your money. They never ran the ads.
Can you imagine what would happen if they tried to pull this on jihad or Sharia groups, or on Islamic Relief now in Manchester?
We filed suit, through my British law firm, Taylor Rose. In response, the Media Agency actually claimed that the picture I photoshopped above was evidence that the ads ran! When we challenged that, they sent us photos of the ads on parked taxis — after repeatedly refusing to show us any evidence that the ads had run before. Their new photos were obviously an attempt to stop our suit: they put the ads on taxis, took the photos, and took them off.
Their dishonesty was transparent, but that was that. We lost the case. The British courts ensured that we were defrauded. This lawsuit cost us over $35,000, and and was an important fight, albeit unnoticed, for the freedom of speech. It was a telling episode showing how much the UK has deteriorated.
“Transport bosses slam ‘totally unacceptable’ comments over Islamic charity bus adverts,” by Charlotte Cox, Manchester Evening News, May 1, 2018:
An Islamic charity running a campaign on Greater Manchester buses has responded to critics of its banners – and transport bosses have slammed ‘totally unacceptable’ racist comments about the ads.
The adverts, currently appearing on 100 of the region’s buses, read: “For the Love of Allah save a life now.”
The organisation behind them, Islamic Relief, says the ads are a call to support their charity, which offers humanitarian support to people of ‘all faiths and none’.
Some people have responded negatively to the advert on Twitter.
Transport for Greater Manchester (TfGM) has branded some responses ‘unacceptable’.
On Sunday night, First Manchester responded to criticism – which included threats to boycott – with an apology.
However, First later withdrew that tweet in favour of the message: “A religious advert on some of our vehicles has led to racist comments, which we do not condone.
“We have alerted @ExterionMediaUK to the feedback on the advert, as they manage the advertising space.”
Transport for Greater Manchester (TfGM) bosses went further in its statement, which read: “TfGM has been tagged in a number of tweets over the last few days about a national campaign by the Islamic Relief charity that has appeared on local buses.”
Describing Greater Manchester as an inclusive and diverse region, the statement added: “The content and tone of many of the comments that have been made are totally unacceptable and we will not be responding to comments about this campaign.”
The campaign has also featured on 75 London red double-deckers and on 82 underground trains in Glasgow.
Judith Escribano, head of communications at the charity, said: “Islamic Relief is a development agency assisting some of the poorest people in the world, both in the UK and over 40 developing countries.”
She said the campaign was launched to draw attention to Ramadan, which starts later this month.
Describing Ramadan as a time for ‘fasting, praying and reflecting’, she said it was also a time for Muslims to make charitable donations.
She added: “We have no wish to cause offence to anyone – our campaign is appealing to people’s charitable nature and goodwill at this uniquely generous time of year for Muslims, much as Christian charities advertise in the run-up to Christmas. We are asking people to save a life for the love of Allah….

Muslum charity is only for fellow muslums, it’s death, rape, enslavement and persecution for everyone not-a-muslim.

If I was a bus or cab driver I would refuse to drive the vehicle on religious or ethical grounds.
This in my home town of Manchester where the filthy muslim scum ripped apart the bodies of young people at a pop concert with a nail bomb killing 22 of them and inflicting lifelong injuries on many more.
There are plenty in that city that will never forgive or forget the muzrats for their treachery.

That drives me crazy also…..I hear people say “the Mexican race”…or the Muslim race”…..I keep trying to tell people that there are actually on three races on this planet…..White, Black, and Asian…..Mexicans are white….Middle Easterners are white with some Asian influence in their DNA…..the difference in how they appear physically is largely caused by climate and diet…..
I recently found out from Ancestry. com that even though I know for certain my great grandmother was native American it doesn’t show up in my blood…..when I asked them they said it is near impossible to find the difference in White blood and Native Americans…..because anthropologists say the Eskimo and Native Americans in North America originally came across the former land bridge between Russia and North America….people who claim to be Native American do it predominately by showing relationship to former NAs on the Indian Rolls…..

Arabs, Turks and Persians are actually considered “white” on the U.S. Census for some reason, so many Muslims in the USA would be considered Caucasian, I guess.

It is forbidden by islam to help non muslims.
islam specifically forbids assistance to non muslims.
“Quran (8:55) – “Surely the vilest of animals in Allah’s sight are those who disbelieve”
Quran (28:86) – “Never be a helper to the unbelievers.”
Quran (48:29) – Muhammad is the messenger of Allah. And those with him are hard (ruthless) against the disbelievers and merciful among themselves”.
Abu Dawud (41:4832) – The Messenger of Allah [said] “Do not keep company with anyone but a believer and do not let anyone eat your food but one who is pious.”
Ibn Kathir v.2 p.213 – No believer shall kill any believer for any non-believer. Nor shall he help any non-believer against a believer – People wonder why Muslims are not at the forefront of the fight against Islamic terror.
Those who are blessed by Allah insult Allah by giving away their “gifts” to those whom Allah has not favored:
Quran (16:71) – “Allah has bestowed His gifts of sustenance more freely on some of you than on others: those more favored are not going to throw back their gifts to those whom their right hands possess, so as to be equal in that respect. Will they then deny the favors of Allah?”

Mahou. Thanks for the references which are very enlightening.
The best weapon against Islam are the Medina part of the Koran, Sira Hadith and the Reliance of the Traveler ,where all the evil of Islam is found and poisons the muslim minds for 14 centuries already.

Thank you again. Please keep doing this, we all need this stuff drilled into our brains. Confronting them with the crap that’s in their books is a fine response to the crap that flows out of their mouths. To simply say their beliefs are hogwash isn’t enough, it has to be shown to them, along with all their fool apologists – thinking of you Mr. Affleck.

muslims complain about everything they are not boasting about. Any contact with islam should be minimized as it is not seen as a business or personal dealing, but submission to islam thought the muslim representing it.

Allah is the name of the Islamic god, and that god has no love for unbelievers, only hate and promises of hell for them as in the Qur’an . This is a god of hate.
Quran 60:4 “There has arisen between us and you enmity and hatred forever unless you believe in Allah and Him alone”
Q 48:13 “Whoever does not believe in Allah and His Messenger, We have prepared a blaze for the unbelievers.”
How can anyone love this god of hatred, or send money for love of him?

Islamic charity is cover for funding , training and compensating jihadi families after they commit jihadi attacks and get killed !
Even Trump was conned by Abbas initially but when he found out the truth boy was he mad as hell at the jihadi http://bit.ly/2rOmfyJ
That’s when he decided enough is enough and that inspite of huge opposition led to shifting of Embassy to Jerusalem and No more funding to the jihadis.

Well….it not yet “law”….the Dimms in the House voted for it….but it’s not to the Senate yet…..and you can’t actually pass laws that go against our existing laws ….Mueller is in most ways doing criminal things along with Rosenstein, Comey, McCabe, et al….and many others… for which they can be prosecuted…..
You cannot change “PRESIDENTIAL POWERS” in the Constitution without a convention of all states to do that…..many have wanted to change many things, but it would be impossible to get all states to agree.
And no matter what “law” they think they are making, can and will be struck down in the SCOTUS….
Just understand that the Dimms do this for the optics of their Libtard supporters and for the Globalists who fund them….it’s just posturing…..
For example: SCOTUS just affirmed the Presidential Powers of President Trump to restrict entry to the US from 6-8 Muslim countries….the hearing pretty much confirmed it….and the written opinions will be in before they close shop in June.

Stagecoach is a scummy firm run by a couple of ex-conductors. It started up as a predatory bus co. in Sheffield putting all competitors out of business. Then is started up a train co. franchise in SW London – but this was bought out by the Hong Kong-based MTR.

Many websites say they were created by bakers – working late – hearing the tunnelling (like in Gaza) so the sneaky Turk attack was successfully countered. Bakers created the croissant to celebrate victory over the crescent flag and to remind the world of the danger and treachery of islam.
