SHE’S FEARLESS: Reported target Pamela Geller says threats won’t stop her.

Anti-jihadi activist Pamela Geller — reportedly the initial target of the foiled Boston beheading plot — says she is ready to “die standing for freedom.”

And she had some pointed words for the Everett man accused of colluding with slain terrorism suspect Usaamah Rahim.

“I would ask him to re-examine his premises,” Geller said of David Wright, now in federal custody. “He thinks his God wants him to kill over cartoons. I would ask him to step back and think about whether the supreme being could really be so small, petty and vicious.”

The purported horrific beheading plot comes four weeks after a pair of gunmen wounded a security guard outside a Prophet Muhammad cartoon contest in Texas that was organized by Geller as a free speech and anti-Sharia- law exercise. A traffic cop shot and killed the gunmen. . . .

“They’re trying to silence me by force — the last thing I am going to do is be silent. That would be handing them a victory. Watch for some new initiatives coming soon, making a stand again for the freedom of speech,” she said.

She also had a message for any other terrorists plotting to harm her.

“You will lose,” Geller said. “Life and freedom will prevail.”

Much of the criticism she gets is from people who know they would take the coward’s way out, and are ashamed.

The news introduces a juxtaposition: Organizing a cartoon contest vs. scheming to behead an individual. Which is needlessly provocative?

CNN’s Erin Burnett last evening got Geller on the phone and asked her, among other things, “Do you on some level relish being the target of these attacks?”

Geller responded, “Relish being the target? Who self-promotes to get killed?” She said she has recruited an “an army of security” for protection and criticized the media for siding with “those that would target me.”

It’s a fair criticism.
