Scare Tactics: Giuliani’s Islamophobic Campaign

Scare Tactics: Giuliani’s Islamophobic Campaign January 7, 2008

Here’s Rudy Giuliani’s Islamophobic new campaign commercial, which began airing on TV in Florida recently. It’s full of angry brown guys with beards and guns! How novel!:

And here’s a hilarious reaction to Rudy Giuliani’s new Islamophobic campaign commercial.

What really busts my brain about this is the images of women he uses. He uses a group of women, clad in white (this color usually associated with purity, goodness, etc.) who are singing. What is threatening about singing?!

And, as if equating all the Middle Eastern people in the world with the idea of imminent danger isn’t low enough, he uses the image of the late Benazir Bhutto. That’s pretty low, man.
