Washington will become the next American city to display a notorious anti-Jihad public advert, after a district judge declined a local Metro injunction asking for it to be delayed.

Washington Metro argued that the posters, which were scheduled to be displayed on trains throughout the city from late September, should be delayed indefinitely in the wake of the fallout from the Innocence of Muslims online film, that provoked riots and demonstrations throughout the Islamic world.

It requested that the earliest date the posters should be put up, be moved to November 1, providing there is no “verifiable” terrorist threat. Instead Judge Rosemary Collyer ordered the ads to be displayed no later than 5 p.m. on Monday.

“It’s a victory for everyone,” said Robert Muise, the attorney for the advertiser. “It’s a victory for all freedom-loving Americans.”

The posters were devised by the controversial American Freedom Defense Initiative (AFDI) – which was behind the campaign against an Islamic community center being built within two blocks of the destroyed World Trade Center.  The posters have already appeared in New York and San Fransisco.

“In Any War Between the Civilized Man and the Savage, Support the Civilized Man. Support Israel. Defeat Jihad,” reads the text of the advert.

  1. What’s this rubbish about delaying indefinitely just because Muslims are kicking off? Surely this is the time to do it. If we wait for Muslims to stop having tantrums then the posters will never be put up.

  2. What is sick is that the cities are working on discovering some way to get around the court ruling.

  3. This ad campaign is the best example of how muslims react to the truth about themselves. Let the good times roll and get those factual posters up everywhere, rub the facts in their faces..

  4. These posters should worldwide. If the muzzies that are arcing then they must be jihadists.arrest and lockup
