After the Internet … Billboards?

Robert Spencer today shows some pictures of a billboard in Los Angeles (at Sunset Blvd. and Fairfax Ave.) that features his website plus the words "Dhimmitude," "Eurabia," and "Bat Ye'or."

That reminds me to note here that, as of January 2005, a billboard has been up, visible from I-95 north of Philadelphia, showing the Middle East Forum's name, logo, and slogan ("Promoting American Interests").

The Forum thanks Terry L. Steen, president of H.A.Steen Industries, Inc., for this excellent new way to make itself known to the general public.

In a curious coincidence, the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) has also discovered the virtue of a billboard for northbound drivers on I-95. Its sign, published on April 28, 2005, in the South Florida Sun-Sentinel, is near the Boynton Beach-Delray Beach line in Florida and it invites motorists to go to its website to "Explore the Life of Prophet Muhammad."

Dec. 18, 2006 update: What seems to be nearly the same sign (this time, it's "Explore the life of the Prophet Muhammad," with a nod toward English grammar), CAIR has again put up a billboard on I-95 for northbound drivers at the Boynton Beach-Delray Beach line. The ad will be up for a month. So far, just one person has contacted CAIR.
