    The six ads include an image of beheaded American journalist James Foley and another of Hitler.

    The ads are paid for by the American Freedom Defense Initiative run by anti-Islam blogger Pamela Geller. She says the campaign tells truths about Islam and Jihad that the U.S. government and mainstream media ignore.

    All the ads feature a disclaimer that says the viewpoints are not endorsed by the MTA.

    The agency is required under a federal court ruling to run controversial ads.

    The American Freedom Defense Initiative has posted ads on New York’s transit system in the past that called enemies of Israel “savages.”

    let the general public know what Israel is dealing with on a daily basis and then the questions and accusations against Israel will become mute.ISIS is doing a great job teaching Americans what Israel is already dealing with!!The american public is learning albeit slowly

    To all of you silly terminally-uninformed sheep with the problem with this ad:

    1 How is it anti-muslim?
    2 Why wouldn’t you characterize Israel’s enemies as savages?
    3 a) What does “jihad” mean and b) when is it legitimate?
    4 As a side note, how do you believe ISIS should be dealt with?
