Whose group sponsored provocative Muhammad cartoon contest?

Marisol Bello

Pamela Geller is good at getting attention.

She’s a celebrity blogger and fiery activist who founded the American Freedom Defense Initiative, which describes itself as a human rights organization that defends freedom of speech by speaking out against global jihad and Islamic supremacists. She runs a sister organization called Stop Islamization of America.

The groups are known for controversial activism against Islam.

Posted in the interfaith room.

She is a despicable human being but violence is wrong.
