Pamela Geller Spreads Loon Hoax: “Nigerian Muslims Crucify Cat Over Muhammad Film”

By on September 19, 2012 in Feature, Loon People

Pamela Geller, premiere anti-Muslim loon hoax perpetrator loves creating fictional stories and passing them off as real news. She has a particular penchant for fabricating stories about Nigerian Muslims, in her racist eyes all Africans look the same.

Recall her attempt to frame the Congo gas tanker explosion over a year ago in which hundreds of Congolese were incinerated as an instance of Nigerian Muslim on Christian violence. Anything goes for Geller if it dehumanizes Muslims, the more so to incite her followers towards her Ayn Rand inspired view of Muslims as “savages.”

In her recent lie against Nigerian Muslims she claims they crucified a cat in protest of the anti-Muslim movie, “Innocence of Muslims,” (h/t: Robert4 & Paul)

Nigerian Muslims Crucify A Cat on the Cross to Protest Freedom of Speech

September, 17, 2012

An anti-freedom, anti-life, culture produces little else other than new and different ways to kill, murder torture, destroy. That is their contribution to humanity — anti-humanity.

“Muslim Youths In Nigeria Crucify A Cat On The Cross To Protest Anti-Islam Film” Nigeria News

Geller is frolicking in hate land again, her post has been picked up in the Islamophobia echo chamber, with JihadWatch, Israel Forum, Exposing Liberal Lies and thousands of others reproducing her blogpost. The above picture originated in Ghana not Nigeria, and surfaced nearly a year ago, reported by Ghanaweb.com in the article “Society for animal protection decries crucifixion of cat” and on the Cat Defender blog,

October 22, 2011

There are numerous reasons to be thankful to the Internet but the use of it as a forum in order for cat-haters to showcase the end products of their unspeakable cruelty and moral depravity is not one of them. The recent posting on Facebook of a photograph of a bound, black and white cat that was crucified by Ghanaian youths is a good case in point. (See photo above.)

Whereas the fate of big cats, elephants, primates, and other endangered and abused animals justifiably garners widespread attention from conservationists around the world, little attention is paid as to how companion and farm animals are treated on the “Dark Continent.” It therefore is difficult to gauge from afar whether the shocking manner in which this particular cat was abused is indicative of how most cats in Ghana are treated or whether this is merely as isolated case of moral degenerates seeking worldwide acclaim.

The photograph was posted online by someone who calls himself Kwabina Daniels, a.k.a. Popkon Sika-one. He possibly could be one of the youths shown in the photo but even that has been called into question by the Ghana Society for the Protection and Care of Animals’ (GSPCA) plea for the public’s assistance in identifying those pictured.

“To Facebookers and friends of the supposed perpetrator of this cruel act, it was fun and perhaps the most award-winning picture,” David Nyoagbe and Amasaba Adul-Yakeen Aluizah of the GSPCA said in a joint statement released to the Ghana News Agency (GNA) on October 5th. (See “Society for Animal Protection Decries Crucifixion of a Cat.”) “It took friends of animals all over the world who begun (sic) criticizing this dastardly act for the picture on (the) Facebook page to be taken off.”

To its credit, the GSPCA promptly condemned the killing and even went so far as to add that cats should be fed regularly, provided with veterinary care and sufficient space in which to exercise, and not be subjected to either threats or molestation. Beyond that, however, its position is a good deal more ambiguous.

…

The GSPCA concluded by accusing the youths of insulting Christianity. “If this is not blasphemy, then what is?” it plaintively asked in the GNA article cited supra.

For whatever it is worth, the CIA World Factbook claims that nearly sixty-eight per cent of Ghanaians profess to the Christians as opposed to only sixteen per cent who claim to be Muslims.

There is no evidence that these youth who crucified the cat were Muslims. Considering that Ghana is a predominantly Christian nation, a more reasonable assumption would be that the perpetrators of this crime were Christians–such an assumption based on no evidence would, however, still be wrong.

It’s beyond disgraceful that Geller would use such a crime to dehumanize Muslims–it’s despicable. Such actions are par for the course with the anti-Muslim movement that seeks above everything to obsessively subjugate Muslims and crush/erase their religion from the face of the earth.

Update:

I’ve also been alerted to Sheila Musaji’s piece which is well worth reading: Geller & Spencer Create “Muslim Cat Crucifixion” Lie to Inflame Hatred.

UPDATE II:

A Danish website by the name of Tosseanstalten has more on the origins of the story. According to their research the picture does not emerge from Ghana but Angola. Read the translated article: Loony Bin in Severe Pickle.

      Garibaldi, I could get nothing that could be used in a court of law, yet since one of the perpetrators died an ugly and lingering death and the others left the neighborhood, I have peace, of sorts.

      PART THREE (To Elliot)

      You wrote:

      With ample truth supporting Islamist Jihad as a genuine threat to Jews, Christians and all who are not part of Dar al Islam, it is regrettable when a horrible situation is mischaracterized to support a just cause.

      RESPONSE:

      The concepts of Darul-Harb (House of War) and Darul-Islam (House of Islam) does NOT apply today.

      The notions of “houses” or “divisions” of the world in Islam such as Dar al-Islam and Dar al-Harb does not appear in the Qur’an or the Hadith. Early islamic jurists devised these terms to describe the legal rulings for the islamic expansion. The very first use of the terms was in Iraq where Abu Hanifa and his disciples Abu Yusuf and Al-Shaybani. On the other side in the levant Al-Awza’i was leading in this discipline and later Shafi’i. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Divisions_of_the_world_in_Islam

      That was DURING the Expansionist era, the Crusader Christians were doing the SAME THING. The “notions” DO NOT apply today because Islam has expanded, the Muslims CANNOT expand any-longer but ONLY fight back (Self-Defense). IT is American Christians who’re EXPANDING their Empire today, not Muslims:

      By looking at America’s many wars throughout history, it becomes apparent that it is not radical Islam that propels the country to war. Rather, it is America’s trajectory of war and conquest, which has always been in the direction of expanding hegemony. In the start, the country expanded by occupying American Indian lands, portraying its indigenous population as inherently violent and warlike. In 1823, U.S. Supreme Court Chief Justice John Marshall wrote: “The tribes of Indians inhabiting this country were fierce savages, whose occupation was war…” [2]

      The American Indians were thought to be an existential threat to the United States (a classic case of projection or role inversion): John Quincy Adams, for example, wrote that “the savage Indians” were out to “wage an exterminating war” against the “peaceful inhabitants” of the United States [3]. It was the same message then as it is now: we must attack them before they attack us. https://www.loonwatch.com/2011/12/we-re-at-war-and-we-have-been-since-1776/

      Westerners have dehumanized the Natives as they dehumanized the Iraqis:

      The fascist lunatic Hugh Fitzgerald on hideous Iraq, its largely hideous people and enjoying the spectacle of civil war:

      “En passant par l’Irak…and then leaving at long last, and while removing all the planes, all the helicopters, all the Humvees, all the Bradley fighting vehicles, all the trucks, all the tanks, all the everything — now remember, boys, don’t leave any war materiel behind, including computers, including absolutely everything, god knows American taxpayers have spent or committed nearly $500 billion to hideous Iraq and its largely HIDEOUS people, and nothing should be left behind. http://spencerwatch.com/who-is-hugh-fitzgerald/

      Anyone who calls others HIDEOUS is the MOST hideous, that APPLIES to you (Hugh Fitzgerald). History is repeating Itself; the act of dehumanization is happening again. By the SAME people now playing VICTIM are demonizing a NEW people (Iraq), they don’t consider them Humans!

      The Christian Right-Wing warmongers and Dominists are the THREAT to Humanity. Zionism is the THREAT to Humanity:

      PART TWO:

      Here’s a commonly Misunderstood passage: |

      O ye who believe! take not the Jews and the Christians for your friends and protectors: They are but friends and protectors to each other. And he amongst you that turns to them (for friendship) is of them. Verily Allah guideth not a people unjust. (Q. 5:51)

      Here is the explanation TROLL:

      http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p4D9aB21DwM http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cnQvbnni_fg

      The Prophet Muhammad said:

      It is narrated on the authority of Ibn Abu Laila that while Qais b. Sa’d and Sahl b. Hunaif were both in Qadislyya a bier passed by them and they both stood up. They were told that it was the bier of one of the people of the land (non-Muslim). They said that a bier passed before the Holy Prophet (may peace be upon him) and he stood up. He was told that he (the dead man) was a Jew. Upon this he remarked: Was he not a human being or did he not have a soul? And in the hadith narrated by ‘Amr b. Murra with the same chain of transmitters, (the words) are:” There passed a bier before us.” (Muslim)

      Again Abu Zubair heard Jabir say that the Holy Prophet (may peace be upon him) and his Companions kept standing for a bier of a Jew until it disappeared from sight. (Muslim)

      The Quran doesn’t say to MURDER the Jews, it commands Muslims to fight ANYONE (pagans, Jews, or Christians) in Self-Defense (2:190-3, 4:75, 8:61, 22:39, 60:8)

      Here’s one misunderstood Hadith:

      “The Day of Judgment will not come about until Muslims fight the Jews (killing the Jews), when the Jew will hide behind stones and trees. The stones and trees will say O Muslims, O Abdullah, there is a Jew behind me, come and kill him. Only the Gharkad tree, (a certain kind of tree) would not do that because it is one of the trees of the Jews.” (Sahih Muslim, 41-6985)

      This is a very misunderstood Hadith! IT is a PROPHECY about Judgment Day when Muslims shall fight the Anti-Christ’ ARMY comprising of 70,000 Persian Jews according to the Hadith:

      “Dajjal will be followed by 70,000 Jews from Isfahan, they will wear (robes) al-Tayalisah (Persian shawls – (today’s Shia)) which are seamless.” [refer Saheeh Muslim]

      So the Hadith is about PERSIAN JEWS fighting for Dajjal (the Anti-Christ) on Judgment Day (or near). That Hadith doesn’t extend to ALL JEWS, only the 70,000 Persian Jews who shall fight FOR the Anti-Christ (Dajjal)!

      That Hadith is restricted to a GROUP amongst the Jews, the followers (soldiers) of the Anti-Christ! There’s no General and Open-Ended command to KILL the Jews. IN contrast, Luke 19:27 is a Genocidal Command of Jesus Christ that APPLIES to all Jews (Millions of people), Jesus doesn’t differentiate the way Prophet Muhammad did (above). The Quran distinguishes between Combatants and Civilians (Q. 4:75, 8:61, 60:8).

      And indeed, among the People of the Scripture are those who believe in Allah and what was revealed to you and what was revealed to them, [being] humbly submissive to Allah . They do not exchange the verses of Allah for a small price. Those will have their REWARD with their Lord. Indeed, Allah is swift in account. (Q. 3:199)

      Not all of them are alike; a party of the people of the Scripture stand for the right, they recite the Verses of Allah during the hours of the night, prostrating themselves in prayer. (Q. 3:113)

      Indeed, those who believed and those who were Jews or Christians or Sabeans [before Prophet Muhammad] – those [among them] who believed in Allah and the Last Day and did righteousness – will have their REWARD with their Lord, and no fear will there be concerning them, nor will they grieve. (Q. 2:62)

      We are FORBIDDEN to harm Jews and Christians UNLESS they fight us (2:190, 22:39). Contrast to the Genocidal Luke 19:27, the “pagans” of Q. 9:5 comprise a GROUP (soldiers) of that Time who BROKE the Covenant; by the Historical Context and Setting Q. 9:5 is NOT general. There’s nothing in Quran like Luke 19:27 or Psalms 5:5. And there’s NOTHING in Luke 19:27 that Differentiates between the Jews (as the Quran does), Jesus says to “KILL THEM ALL” as a General Command!

      But those enemies of mine who did not want me to be king over them–bring them here and KILL THEM in front of me.’”

      But those mine enemies,…. Meaning particularly the JEWS, who were enemies to the person of Christ, and hated and rejected him, as the King Messiah; and rebelled against him, and would not submit to his government; and were enemies to his people, and were exceeding mad against them, and persecuted them; and to his Gospel, and the distinguishing truths of it, and to his ordinances, which they rejected against themselves: (John Gill, Exposition of the Entire Bible)

      Luke 19:27 extends to WOMEN too! Yet, the Quran commands Muslims to FIGHT FOR women (4:75), not a SINGLE passage in the Quran condones KILLING women! The Bible condones the KILLING of women (Num. 31:17-20, Deut. 2:34, 3:5, 20:16, 2 Chron. 15:13, 1 Sam. 15:3, Ez. 9:6) and GOD is silent! Here’s the Contrast between the Quran and Bible:

      Narrated By ‘Abdullah : During some of the Ghazawat of the Prophet a woman was found killed. Allah’s Apostle disapproved the killing of women and children. (Bukhari Volume 004, Book 052, Hadith Number 257)

      Ibn `Abbas says: The Messenger of Allah, when dispatching his troops, would tell them, ” ..Do not behave treacherously, nor misappropriate war-booty, nor mutilate [those whom you kill], nor kill children, nor the people in cloisters.” (Musnad Ahmad, Sunan At-Tirmidhî)

      Another narration records that he said, “…Do not kill a woman, nor a child, nor an old-aged man’ (Sharh as-Sunnah Al-Baghawî) Narrated Anas ibn Malik: The Prophet said: Go in Allah’s name, trusting in Allah, and adhering to the religion of Allah’s Apostle. Do not kill a decrepit old man, a young infant, or a child, or a woman; do not be dishonest about booty, but collect your spoils, do right and act well, for Allah loves those who do well. (Sunan Abî Dawûd)

      And again, “Do not kill a child, nor a woman, nor an old man, nor obliterate a stream, nor cut a tree…” (Sunan Al-Bayhaqî)

      IN CONTRAST, the Bible says:

      Now kill all the boys. And kill every woman who has slept with a man,18 but save for yourselves every girl who has never slept with a man. (Numbers 31:17,18)

      This is what the LORD Almighty says: ‘I will punish the Amalekites for what they did to Israel when they waylaid them as they came up from Egypt. Now go, attack the Amalekites and totally destroy [a] everything that belongs to them. Do not spare them; put to death men and women, children and infants, cattle and sheep, camels and donkeys.’ (1 Samuel 15:2,3)

      ”…Lior’s enthusiasm for Shapira’s tract stems from his own eliminationist attitude toward non-Jews. For example, while Lior served as the IDF’s top rabbi, he instructed soldiers: “There is no such thing as civilians in wartime… A thousand non-Jewish lives are not worth a Jew’s fingernail!” (https://www.loonwatch.com/2010/09/shocking-religious-defense-of-killing-non-jews-with-video/)

      No civilians in wartime? That is the WAR-DOCTRINE of Judaism and Biblical Christianity, not Islam. Even if the “violent passages” of the Quran are GENERAL and OPEN-ENDED (as Spencer claims), it’s ONLY directed to the Combatants (not Civilians). IF the War-passages of the Bible are GENERAL (which is Debatable) then Jews and Christians are KILLING women and children (Civilians) with a CLEAR Conscience (they have Religious Basis). Yet, the Muslims are always ATTACKED (verbally and physically) for being VIOLENT when those “Islamic Extremists” are following the Bible’s war doctrine (not Islam) without knowing it (destruction, women and children). The Bible has a SUICIDE BOMBER, his name was Samson. Read up ‘The Samson Option’, Herem, and Perpetual Servitude.

      Hence, the Bible is MORE violent than the Quran. Luke 19:27 is much HARSH than Q. 9:5 and Sahih Muslim, 41-6985 (above).

      The above Hadith is NOT General and Open-ended call for genocide! Islam distinguishes between Combatants and Civilians (Q. 2:190-3, 4:75, 22:39, 60:8), Judaism and Biblical Christianity DO NOT. The SOLDIERS of the Anti-Christ are NOT civilians, they are 70,000 combatants. Compare that to the MILLIONS of Jews that Jesus KILL when He returns (Luke 19:27). And what about the TWO MILLION people that Yahweh massacred in the Bible?

      “Whoever harms a dhimmi (Jew or Christian) has harmed me” (Tirmidhi).

      The Prophet, may Allah bless him, said, “Whoever killed a Mu’ahid (a person who is granted the pledge of protection by the Muslims) shall not smell the fragrance of Paradise though its fragrance can be smelt at a distance of forty years (of traveling).” (Sahih Bukhari, Hadith 2930)

      “Whoever oppresses a dhimmi or loads a work that is over his strength or takes something away from him by force, I am his foe on the Day of Judgment.” (Abu Dawud, Kharaj, 31-33)|

      COMPARE the following:

      And say: “The truth from your Lord (has come in this Qur’an). ” Then, whoever wills (to believe), let him believe; and whoever wills (to disbelieve), let him disbelieve.} (Al-Kahf 18: 29)

      But those enemies of mine who DID NOT want me to be king over them–bring them here and KILL THEM in front of me.’” (Lk 19:27)

      If it had been your Lord’s will, all of the people on Earth would have believed. Would you then compel the people so to have them believe? (Yunus 10: 99)

      There is no Compulsion in Religion, Truth stands out Clear from Error (Q. 2:256)

      All who would not seek the LORD, the God of Israel, were to be PUT TO DEATH, whether small or great, man or woman.” (2 Chron. 15:13)

      Viewing the world through a plexiglass navel, loonwatch ignores the scriptural exhortations throughout the Quran, Hadith and other Islamic texts to unfriend, hate and murder Jews.

      RESPONSE:

      Needless to say, there’s no substance and weight in your statement because it BACKFIRES on you! You ignore the “scriptural exhortations” throughout the Torah, Talmud, and other Jewish Texts to unfriend, hate, and murder Gentiles.

      “Jehovah created the non-Jew in human form so that the Jew would not have to be served by beasts. The non-Jew is consequently an ANIMAL in human form, and condemned to serve the Jew day and night” (Nidrasch Talpioth, p. 225-L, TALMUD).

      “Murdering Goyim is like killing a wild animal” (Sanhedrin 59a)

      “God has given the Jews power over the possessions and blood of all nations” (Seph. Jp., 92, 1)

      “To communicate anything to a Goy about our religious relations would be equal to the killing of all Jews, for if the Goyim knew what we teach about them, they would kill us openly” (Libbre David 37)

      “Sexual intercourse with a little girl is permitted if she is three years o fage” (Yebhamoth 11b

      “If a heathen (Gentile) hits a Jew, the Gentile must be killed. Hitting a Jew is the same a sshitting God” (Sanhedrin 58b).

      “Jews must destroy the books of the Christians” (Shabbath 116a)

      “When a Jew murders a Gentile (“Cuthean”), there will be no death penalty. What a jEW STEALS FROM A gENTILE HE MAY KEE;PP “(sANHEDRIN 57A).

      “All property of other nations belongs to the Jewish nation, which consequently, is entitled to seize upon without any scruples” (Schulchan Aruch, Choszen Hamiszpat, 348

      “We have to recognize that Jewish blood and the blood o fa goy are not the same thing |(NY times, June 6, 1989, p 5)

      “One million Arabs are not worth a Jewish fingernail” (Rabbi Yaacov Perrin, NY Daily News, Feb. 28, 1994, p. 6)

      We implore YOU by the Moral Principle of Honesty to produce BRING FORTH these “scriptural exhortations” so the Muslims can EXPOSE you.

      The following Saying of Jesus applies to you perfectly:

      How can you say to your brother, ‘Brother, let me take the speck out of your eye,’ when you yourself fail to see the plank in your own eye? You hypocrite, first take the plank out of your eye, and then you will see clearly to remove the speck from your brother’s eye. (Luke 6:42)

      There’s a great deal of audacity inconsistency and blatant hypocrisy and IRONY on your statements, the clear distortion, misinterpretation, and Corruption of the Islamic Sources by Trolls (such as yourself) is appalling to the HIGHEST degree. As though Islamophobice eisegesis hasn’t gone FAR enough, it apparently has reached its peak.

      The Grand Mufti of Egypt Mufti Sheikh Ali Gomaa wrote:

      “…The world is sorely in need of such lessons, which represent the authentic teachings of the Koran and the prophet of Islam. It is important to separate these noble messages from those that are bandied about by those who have no competencies in religious interpretation, Koranic hermeneutics or the history of Islamic thought.

      Where does the Quran say to HATE Jews? I challenge you to FIND a passage in the Quran like this:

      The arrogant cannot stand in your presence. You HATE all who do wrong; (Psalms 5:5). Where does the Quran say “hate?” IT never says “Hate the Jews”; the Quran divides the Jews and Christians into the Good and Evil, condemning the Evil and praising the Good. The Righteous Jews are HONORED in the Quran (Q. 3:113, Al-Jathiyah:16)

      The religious dissociation of Abraham and other religious personalities from the main body of Jews and Christians was an inevitable consequence of two strands among Jews and Christians. The Qur’an continuously praises the one strand, and condemns the other, e.g., ‘From among them (i.e., the People of the Book) there is an upright group but most of them perpetrate misdeeds’ (V, 66). They were asked to live up to the Torah and the Evangel (V, 68), but, like the proprietors of all organized religious traditions, Jews and Christians quarrelled among themselves and each claimed that the keys of salvation were firmly in their exclusive grasp: ‘The Jews say the Christians have nothing to stand on and the Christians say the Jews have nothing to stand on, and they both read the Book’ (Fazlur Rahman, Islam, pg. 27)

      The Jews are addressed in two roles in the Qur’an: in their role as an earlier community of believers, prior recipients of revelation, and in their role as a group living in Yathrib(the city that would become Madina), whose interests sometimes agreed with those of Muslims, and sometimes not. The Jews are sometimes praised for values that they held on to, sometimes chastised for values they abandoned in the former role, and revelations concerning their latter role guided the politics of the early Muslim community, which did sometimes involve opposing the Jews in Yathrib in military campaigns. What has happened is that verses that were revealed for a very specific circumstance were deemed to be normative, and verses praising the values that the Jews maintained have been habitually ignored. While the Qur’an was revealed during a time of conflict with a Jewish community, it does not espouse anti-Semitism as a value. It’s a bit like saying that Christians should despise modern Romans because of the persecution that the early Christian community endured from the Roman empire. (http://www.islamicboard.com/clarifications-about-islam/20751-what-qurans-view-jews.html)

      Yahweh, the GOD of the Bible, murders the Jews:

      But the LORD killed seventy men from Beth-shemesh because they looked into the Ark of the LORD. And the people mourned greatly because of what the LORD had done. (1 Samuel 6:19)

      ”God is always killing his chosen people. And, as usual, the people repent and ask Moses to pray to God for them. He does, and God tells him to make a bronze snake, so all the people who were bitten and haven’t died yet could look at it and be cured. Oh what a miracle, God saves a few people from the snakebites that he himself caused! God didn’t kill quite as many of his own chosen people as he was going to! (http://skepticreadsthebible.blogspot.ca/2011/03/numbers-20-21-god-kills-more-israelites.html)

      Well, if everything should be “free speech” – why not post photos and videos of puppies in microwaves and kittens having their heads crushed by high heels? Why should’nt YouTube allow for the posting of husbands beating their wives, or pedophiles molesting kids, rape, or Mexican drug gangs executing thier victims…

      @Reynardine, I hope you had recourse to redress the injury you suffered, and that the individual responsible faced some sort of punishment.

      I can only agree with you about cats infuriating authoritarians.
