Bikini-wearing blogger launches bus ads against ‘Islamization of America’

New York, May 26 (ANI): A bikini-wearing blogger with Tea Party ties has placed ads on city buses in New York campaigning against ‘Islamization of America’.
And some of the ads bought by rabble-rouser Pamela Geller and the New York-based Stop the Islamization of America read-”Fatwa on your head? Is your community or family threatening you? Leaving Islam?,” reports The New York Daily News.
The adverts also direct Muslims to a Web site urging them to leave the “falsity of Islam.”
Geller, 51, a leader in the fight against the proposed Ground Zero mosque, said she was “thrilled” that the ads were up - and doesn’t care if they offend Muslims.
“Will it bother Islamic supremacists? Yes,” she said.
Geller said she spent 10,000 dollars-money raised by readers of her Atlas Shrugs blog-for 40 ads appearing on the sides of buses citywide for a month.
“There ought to be ads also for people who want to leave Islam. heir lives are threatened,” she said.
Similar bus ads have run in Miami - over the objections of local Muslims, who called them a “smoke screen for hatred” - and more are planned for Detroit.
Her bus ads, however, angered Muslims in Astoria, Queens. (ANI)
