Campaign Mocks Anti-Muslim NYC Subway Ads
Pamela Gellar isn’t going to like this:
A counter-campaign lampooning a conservative firebrand’s Islamophobic posters will appear in city subways Tuesdays, advocates said.
An “Islamic frittata” campaign lampooning a conservative firebrand’s anti-Muslim posters is set to debut in city subways Tuesday.
Documentary filmmakers Negin Farsad and Dean Obeidallah say they will post 144 posters in 140 subway stations thanks to roughly $20,000 raised through crowdfunding. The posters bear messages like: “The ugly truth about Muslims: Muslims have great frittata recipes.”
They come in response to Pamela Geller’s ads with the message “Killing Jews is worship that draws us close to Allah” alongside an image of a menacing Muslim.
Farsad and Obeidallah are also behind the forthcoming documentary, “The Muslims Are Coming!”

We need more of this. The power of ridicule is huge. People react to it immediately, and its effects can be VERY long-lasting. So when the Freak-Out contingent starts foaming at the mouth, ridicule them for their obvious stupidity. It’s amazing how fast they shut up when no one will take them seriously.
