Geller: If You Follow "Pure Islam, Then You Support Jihad"

Pamela Geller is not backing down from her Islamophobic hate speech. Last week, Pamela Geller joined Larry O'Connor on his radio show, The Stage Right Show. O'Connor who serves as editor-in-chief of Breitbart.tv, tried to help her disguise her anti-Islamic rhetoric, asking her: "But seriously, Pamela Geller I just want to be clear on this: You believe that a person is capable of being a devout Muslim and be a completely peaceful and loving person, right? You don't think that if you're Muslim, de facto, you're a violent jihadi?"

But Geller was unable to agree with that point. The first word out of her mouth was "no," but immediately after that, she made clear that she does not believe that a believer in what she termed "pure Islam" can be peaceful:

GELLER: No. I don't believe that. But I do believe that if you're a follower of traditional Islam, of pure Islam, then you support jihad. And that's not my opinion so much as you see in the recent Gallup poll and you see in the Pew polls that the most devout country, and specifically, of course, Pakistan and so forth. Look, they overwhelmingly supported Osama Bin Laden. And, you know, was disapproving of what America had done in taking him out. And even in the U.K., you see that 35 percent support homicide bombings. Look, there's a problem, not with all Muslims, no.

But there is a problem. And we are not allowed to talk about it? I understand that people say, you know, "don't broad brush all." I don't. But by the same token, forgive me for not patting every single person on the back who doesn't take up -- doesn't strap one on. I don't think it's necessary to do that. I expect people not to kill other people. I expect a certain modicum of humanity. Yes, and respect for the Golden Rule. Even though there's no Golden Rule in Islam, I do believe that do unto others is a basic human -- irrespective of religion -- a basic tenet of humanity, okay. I don't believe in patting people on the back for not killing me. Sorry, Larry, I'm not going to do that.

Geller has been trying to scrub some of the more incendiary parts of her record in response to the bombing in Norway, which she initially blamed on Muslims. But apparently, when given an engraved invitation to declare that she does not, in fact, believe that devout Muslims can be peaceful, she can't bring herself to accept it.
