The pro-fascist German website pi-news.net is now claiming that I “forged” the photograph of Filip DeWinter with Markus Beisicht of the “Pro Koln” group: Translated version of http://www.pi-news.net/.

This is an outrageous lie. In my previous post, I linked to the site where I found the picture, through Google Images: Translated version of Markus Beisicht (per NRW): “Islamization fight!”

Since I now see even Michelle Malkin linking to Robert Spencer’s dishonest, scummy attack piece, let me make this very clear: I did not alter that photograph. Anyone who says this is either severely mistaken or lying.

Again, the point of the photograph is not changed by the fact that someone altered the background. It shows two fascists shaking hands, and one of them is an organizer of the Pro Koln conference; and the unaltered photograph shows the exact same thing.

And there are many more photographs of these two people together at the Pro Koln website itself.

I’ve learned that Michelle Malkin’s ‘Buzzworthy’ section is automatically generated, so Robert Spencer’s boast that Michelle approved of his dishonest smear job was completely wrong.
