Americans For a Safe Israel /AFSI
Philadelphia, PA Chapter


FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:
February 26, 2009
 
IN WAKE OF BEHEADING GROUP CALLS ON VERIZON TO DROP ISLAMIC TV NETWORK
 
(PHILADELPHIA, PA)  The Philadelphia chapter Americans For a Safe Israel (AFSI) has called on Verizon to discontinue broadcasting a radical Islamic TV network in the U.S. immediately.
 
"The tragic beheading of Aasiya Zubair Hassan by her estranged husband Muzzammil Hassan on February 12, 2009 calls into question Verizon's vetting of Bridges TV. Muzzammil Hassan founded the pro-Islamic Bridges TV propaganda network in 2004 and Verizon carries it on their Fiber-Optic Television nationwide," explains Hillel Bluestein, chairman of the Philadelphia chapter of AFSI.
 
"AFSI has been monitoring Bridges TV since 2007 and it is nothing more than a sanitized, American adjusted, Islamists' broadcast created as a propaganda effort to portray American Muslims as peace-loving citizens while depicting U.S. policy in the Middle East as dangerous and terroristic," states Bluestein. "Verizon and the FCC must completely re-evaluate Bridges TV and take appropriate and immediate measures to remove it from the airwaves."
 
A petition to Verizon demanding that they stop broadcasting Bridges TV is now available online:

AFSI also calls on the FCC to look into the financing of Bridges TV and investigate what laws may have been broken in the foreign financing behind this extremist propaganda effort. AFSI requests clarification as to whether U.S. taxpayers unknowingly financed Bridges TV through the NPR/PBS linked Democracy Now! program that has long aired on Bridges TV. Bluestein insists that the "knee-jerk" reaction that must have been involved in airing this Islamic propaganda may have overlooked the way Bridges TV was financed. "It is time we end the defensive posture most broadcasters have assumed in regard to information on Islam and Muslims," states Bluestein. "We cannot bend over backward in fear of offending Islamic groups in America especially when the material they offer is truly dangerous to our nation's interests."
 
Americans For a Safe Israel, was founded in 1971 and has chapters throughout the U.S. Those in the Philadelphia area that are interested in learning more about the growing threat of Islamic propaganda or AFSI and its activities should visit www.phillyafsi.com.

Daniel Pipes on "The Deceits of Bridges TV"

 
MUST READ OF THE DAY
 
Daniel Pipes writes about Bridges TV and its wife murdering founder: "as the forces of political correctness inevitably bear down to exclude an Islamic dimension to the murder, the motive of family reputation must be kept alive. Enough with the pleasant deceits – time has come to utter hard truths about Bridges TV."
 
 


Verizon broadcasts the radical Islamic TV network created by Muzzammil Hassan throughout the U.S. through the Verizon Fios TV system. Muzzammil Hassan beheaded his wife in the Bridges TV offices outside Buffalo, NY on February 12, 2009. 

Bridges TV is a thinly veiled propaganda operation with questionable ties and funding sources.

A petition to Verizon demanding that they stop broadcasting Bridges TV is now online:

Wife Beheaded by Muslim leader in Buffalo, NY

 
MUST READ OF THE DAY
Robert Spencer, author of Stealth Jihad, writes "Last Thursday [2/12/2009], a woman named Aasiya Z. Hassan, 37, was founded decapitated in Orchard Park, New York, a village near Buffalo. Her husband, Muzzammil Hassan, 44, was charged, rather oddly, with second-degree murder in the case. But the specter of someone who beheaded his wife being charged only with second-degree murder was the least of the oddities in this case: Aasiya Hassan’s body was found in the offices of the cable channel, Bridges TV. Aasiya Hassan was the inspiration for Bridges TV, and Muzzammil Hassan was its founder."

MUST READ OF THE DAY: A UN-supported welfare enclave for terrorists

 
MUST READ OF THE DAY
 
Claudia Rosett depicts Gaza as "a UN-supported welfare enclave for terrorists":
 
"Once upon a time, terrorists had to hide from the forces of the free world and filch their living on the sly. That's changing, thanks to long-running efforts by the United Nations, bankrolled most prominently by the U.S. "

The Islamic Campaign To Destroy Free Speech


MUST READ OF THE DAY

Herb Denenberg writes: The United States, Britain, and much of the West is slowly surrendering its right to freedom of speech in the face of threats of violence from Islam and in the face of a systematic campaign to demonize and even criminalize any criticism of Islam, Islamofascism, Islam Jihadism and all the rest.

George Mitchell's Middle East mission is bound to fail

 
MUST READ OF THE DAY
 
Cal Thomas writes: "Like Linus van Pelt sitting alone in the pumpkin patch, George Mitchell, Obama's special envoy to the Middle East, is in that dysfunctional region thinking that if he and the Obama administration demonstrate enough sincerity the diplomatic equivalent of the Great Pumpkin will arrive, making all things right.
 
Mr. Mitchell's mission is bound to fail, like every mission before it ... for the simple reason that peace and stability are not about us, but about them. Their road to hell is paved with our good intentions. "

Let Israel Strike a Death Blow Against Hamas

 
MUST READ OF THE DAY
 
Jamie Weinstein writes "Despite its evident failure, we still hear that cliché of a Middle East peace strategy promulgated by pundits and politicians: Land for Peace.  This discredited peace policy should have long ago been relegated to the garbage dump of terrible ideas. Sadly, it has persisted. But with the current predicament in the Holy Land, is it too much to ask those who cling to the Land for Peace mantra – like little children cling to their favorite stuffed animals"
