PUNKED! CHARLES JOHNSON OF LITTLE GREEN FOOTBALLS SCAMMED! FALLS FOR FAUXTOGRAPHY
The whole thing pains me. Just when the anti-jihad was picking up momentum it is one (we considered one of our own) who goes turncoat. Pathetic… our CAIR-ing enemies are laughing their sorry asses off….
Pamela sez: This is too rich. Charles Johnson of Little Green Footballs falls for fauxtography. One might be surprised that no johnson could fall for so simple a photoshop, but don’t be. He took the credit for the “fauxtography” and “rathergate” stories when they were, in fact, both discovered by readers (the latter at Powerline).
What is so disturbing and malevolent is the lengths he will go to to destroy the true and the brave. Think about that. Those fighting for Western values, against Islamic supremacism are his target. What does that tell you? The exposure of Johnson is a life lesson for all.

The real photo
Charles Johnson of Little Green Footballs, in his attempt to portray the German anti-jihad group Pro-Köln as neo-Nazi and to smear me in the process (paste in the link to get around his block), has fallen for the same Photoshop techniques that he has unmasked when Leftists and jihadists use them in the mainstream media.

“Islam enjoys a large and influential ally among the non-Muslims: A new generation of “Useful Idiots”…. This new generation of Useful Idiots also lives in liberal democracies, but serves the cause of Islamofascism—another virulent form of totalitarian ideology.
“Useful Idiots are naïve, foolish, ignorant of facts, unrealistically idealistic, dreamers, willfully in denial or deceptive. They hail from the ranks of the chronically unhappy, the anarchists, the aspiring revolutionaries, the neurotics who are at war with life, the disaffected alienated from government, corporations, and just about any and all institutions of society….
“Arguably, the most dangerous variant of the Useful Idiot is the “Politically Correct.” He is the master practitioner of euphemism, hedging, doubletalk, and outright deception.
“The Useful Idiot derives satisfaction from being anti-establishment. He finds perverse gratification in aiding the forces that aim to dismantle an existing order, whatever it may be: an order he neither approves of nor he feels he belongs to.”

Hamas-linked CAIR calls on Florida House Majority Leader to step down for co-hosting an event featuring Geert Wilders
The Council on American-Islamic Relations, an unindicted co-conspirator in a Hamas jihad terror funding case, and an organization that has had several of its officials convicted of various terrorism-related offenses, as well as one whose co-founder and principal spokesman have made Islamic supremacist statements, is now demanding that an American politician be punished for exercising his right to freedom of speech and freedom of assembly — in co-hosting an event featuring Geert Wilders, the Dutch Parliamentarian who has aroused CAIR’s ire by speaking truthfully about Islamic jihad violence and supremacism.
“CAIR: Hasner must step down,” by Adam Smith in the St. Petersburg Times TampaBay.com “The Buzz” Blog, April 26 (thanks to Pamela, who has more details, including CAIR’s press release):
The Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) today called on GOP leaders to demand that Rep. Adam Hasner step down from his leadership post for co-hosting a Florida “Free Speech Summit” criticized as an anti-Islam event. Featured speaker Dutch politician Geert Wilders reportedly said: “ Islam is not a religion. Islam is a totalitarian political ideologue. Islam heart lies at the Qur’an, and the Qur’an is a book that calls for hatred, that calls for violence, for murder, for terrorism, for war, and submission…We should stop pretending that Islam is a religion… the right to religious freedom should not apply to Islam .”
Hasner is defiant:
Hasner responded: “I am not going to allow the right to free speech [to] be stifled by a group like CAIR that has legally documented ties to the Muslim Brotherhood – a radical organization that is on record as stating they want to destroy America from within thru the imposition of Sharia law.”
Step down? Hardly. Hasner ought to run for President!
“It is unconscionable that a top leader of an American state legislature would host a gathering at which the faith of millions of Americans is denigrated and their rights denied,” said CAIR National Communications Director Ibrahim Hooper . “Republican Party leaders in Florida and nationwide must demand that Representative Hasner step down from his leadership post because of his support for Geert Wilders and his Nazi-like message.”…
Yeah, yeah, CAIR and its stooges among “conservative” bloggers love to tar every freedom fighter as a Nazi, but the only real Jew-hating, totalitarian, genocidal force in the world today of any power and significance is the Islamic jihad.
