Anti-Muslim and antisemetic blogger Pamela Geller is known for reproducing Nazi images on her blog "atlasshrugs2000.typepad.com" when she wants to criticize Jews. She "dressed" Justice Elena Kagan in an SS uniform, she insists that George Soros runs a shadowy network that controls the media, she frets that Jewish Democrats are stabbing America in the back in her forever war against Muslims.
Now she is upset that Occupy Wall Street is making an "octopus" float for the Rose Parade because it was used in antisemitic cartoons in the 20th century. No, she doesn't think her "puppetmaster" cartoon a few posts earlier should be held to the same standard, but for that standard to have any validity, we need to follow the Aristotelian "A is A" logic that Pam the bigot claims to adore. If imagery that can be associated with antisemetic cartoons makes a movement antisemitic, then Pamela Geller is an antisemetic ---- on top of several other bigoted tags she proudly wears.
Maybe loonwatch.com or littlegreenfootballs.com will address this?
Oh here's a comment that will probably get deleted from "Free Speech Activist" Pam Geller's hate site:
So far the only anti-semetic artwork involved is the Nazi cartoon being posted on right wing blogs.
If "octopus" is off limits for eternity, then you're going to struggle to claim every effigy of Obama at a rally isn't a depiction of a lynching by the same flimsy logic.
