UPDATED: Geller: ‘Truth Is The New Hate Speech’

Remember BAB posted about one Mosab Yousef, known as “Son of Hamas”—also the title of his book? This bright, young Palestinian underwent, first, a religious conversion, and, in short order, a political one. Once he embraced Christianity, Yousef’s political change of heart followed, and he abandoned the easy, destructive, fashionable path of the Palestinians; stopped rooting for the savagery of his Hamasnik father and joined civilization (such as it is).

Now, as the irrepressible, anti-Islamization activist Pamela Geller reports, the Treason Class running this country is deporting Yousef back to his , the West Bank, where he’ll likely be finished off. (Yeah, Flotilla Fans: that’s what they do to dissenters in Muslim territories; and with the assent of the Muslim Street)

Slight correction to such Bush-supporters as is Ms. Geller (who has called Bush a good man), whose post may give the impression that the current president’s policies are not a seamless continuation of those of the last. Bush would have done nothing different—and was even more of an illegal immigration enthusiast than is Obama. As I like to say, Bush would have wrestled a crocodile for a criminal alien. And he did.

Granted, Obama has been holding back on the matter of immigration because he’s pacing himself. There is only so much destruction and deconstruction the man can achieve at once. In order to push through parts of his political agenda, Obama has to bide his time with respect to other aspects thereof.

Bush, on the other hand, denied us much needed social-security reform, but went full steam ahead with instigating invasions and welcoming invaders, the two sides of the same neoconservative coin.

“TRUTH IS THE NEW HATE SPEECH.” While on the topic of outrages: Ms. Geller reports that PayPal has revoked her account privileges, if I understand their complaint correctly, because they contend she runs a site promoting “hate.” They have, consequently, instructed Ms/ Geller to remove her PayPal button.

This repulsive conduct on the part of PayPal follows YouTube’s reprehensible, Muslim-driven (no doubt) removal of the “We Con The World” clip (hiding being copyright claims).

It seems that in the US, we don’t need a Canadian-style Human Rights kangaroo court; we have the private sector to enforce the tyranny minimized as political correctness.

The solution has to be obvious: credible competition to both PayPal and YouTube that will offer service sans the dhimmi, Acceptable-Use Policy constraints.

UPDATE (June 15): Ms. Geller, a formidable fighter, has beaten PayPal in its cowardly attempts to bully her into submission, and has brought the internet transaction company some bad, bad press.

Ms. Geller exults, “Paypal Called, Paypal Caved Paypal backed down. Excelsior!”

Always on the look for an ethical, as opposed ego-driven, voice on the Right, I’ve picked up in Ms. Geller’s latest battle something quite different—unheard of among the garden variety, ego-bound, conservative female commentators to whom we are subjected:

“I asked what recourse do smaller websites have? As this is my real concern. My soapbox is pretty big, but what about small blogs?”

Yes, should it come under PayPal attack, Barely a Blog would never be able to generate support among mainstream conservatives as Geller has. For thinking of voices such as ours, we thank Ms. Geller.

We also thank her for bringing to our awareness an alternative to PayPal, should they continue to hound truth and freedom:

“Needless to say, I am not going back,” writes Ms. Geller. “I told [PayPal woman] that, too. She wished I would reconsider. But, no. I am sticking with Gpal — the G stands for guns.”

    It’s the same all over the place. Islam-critical “Politically Incorrect” is the most-read of all political blogs in Germany with up to 70,000 visitors per day. The Facebook accounts of Dr. Christine Dietrich and Stefan Herre, who are behind the blog, have been terminated without any warning and explanation while hatred of Israel and Jews is raging there undisturbed.

    On what grounds did the US deny his claim of asylum?? Presumably, Israel can grant him asylum.

    Concerning YouTUBE – I did not think that copyright law applied to parodies. Many satirical songs were creted from variants of popular songs throughout history. Of course, the trend of copyright law has been to stifle free speech (such as the prosecution of “The Wind Done Gone” by the corporate heirs to Margaret Mitchell of Gone With the Wind).

    Truth is the new hate speech:
    How can this insanity be stopped?
    Payment refused can only be someone leaning on them to be difficult I think?its not beyond the looni left (or WH administration?) To make it difficult for ms geller:I fear for her safety going forward

    While I am certainly not shocked to see Big Business work in concert with Big Government and their enablers, it is disappointing nonetheless. Google is becoming just like Apple, coming to exemplify something Vox Day terms “technofascism”.

    I thought parodies were part of fair use under copyright law. Not that the law matters much in the “Age of the Idiot”...

    I agree that competition is the way to go to find alternatives to YouTube, PayPal, and other services. How easy or difficult it is to introduce a new service, I am not sure (but before there was Facebook, there was MySpace.) I’d like to see that happen in this case. (FYI do you realize that a competitor to “Whole Foods” has been making inroads into West Coast locations previously dominated by that chain? “Sprouts,” offering lower prices on organic products http://fastfood.freedomblogging.com/whole-foods-vs-sprouts-price-comparison/ ) It would be nice if we could see the same thing happen with internet services.

    A little update, courtesy of WND, suggests that PayPal has backed off a bit:

    It would sure be nice to know what the rubric is in terms of what constitutes “hate” and what does not.

    I also noticed that I rudely forgot to mention that Google owns YouTube, just as eBay owns PayPal. Sorry about that.

    Liberating tolerance, then, would mean intolerance against movements from the Right and toleration of movements from the Left.

    It’s amazing the seeds of destruction that this guy and his ilk planted.
