America Faces No Greater Threat Than Joe Biden and the Democrat Party. Their Assault to Our Borders Is As Great As Their Assault to Free Speech and Free Elections

REP TULSI GABBARD WARNS AMERICA AGAINST THE GREATEST TERRORIST THREAT A NATION HAS FACED: JOE BIDEN!
JOE BIDEN is known as a serial liar, a "public servant" who has somehow managed to accrue tremendous wealth, a race-baiting opportunist, a Catholic-in-name-only, and a bought-and-paid-for politician in bed with criminal cartels and foreign foes. In another era, Joe Biden would have been run out of his country much the same way Benedict Arnold was two and a half centuries ago; in an era when integrity, honor, fortitude, fidelity, and grit have been jettisoned for immorality, unscrupulousness, weakness, betrayal, and craven pliability, however, he is elevated to king sleazeball in a city drowning in sleaze. JB SHURK
Biden lied about his undergraduate degree and his majors, lied about his rank in law school, lied aboutscholarships and educational aid he had received, lied about his stance toward the Vietnam war while in college, lied about his plagiarism of other politician's writings andspeeches, lied about the circumstances around his first wife's fatal accident, lied about how he met his second and current wife, and lied about the affair they were having when they were both married.

Most recently and dramatically, Biden lied about his knowledge of his son's shady dealings, lied about his own involvement in corruption and bribery, and lied about his current presidential agenda and what he wants to implement in regards to energy, fracking, court-packing, health care, education, and COVID among other issues.

Horowitz Dissects the Radical Mind
Freedom Center founder's new book exposes the destructive plans of the Woke Left.
[Order David Horowitz’s new book, The Radical Mind: The Destructive Plans of the Woke Left: HERE.]
“Progressivism is ultimately a criminal mentality,” David Horowitz states bluntly in his latest work, The Radical Mind: The Destructive Plans of the Woke Left from Humanix Books. “The belief that the world is marching towards justice, and that to be a progressive means one is on ‘the right side of history,’ is a delusion that will justify any and every atrocity, and already has.”
It is this sort of direct, gloves-off assault on the Left that has always characterized Horowitz’s vast body of conservative writing, to which he has passionately devoted the last nearly four decades.
There is no conservative writer better than David Horowitz at explicating and exposing the radical Left’s power-hungry agenda and mindset, because as a former child of hardcore Communist parents, as a former far-Left activist engaged in revolution alongside the likes of the Black Panthers, and as a former radical intellectual well-versed in Progressive (i.e., Communist) theory, he knows the Left better than they know themselves. As he puts it himself in his new book, “Having been born into this political left and then rejected it, I am familiar with its seductive public message, and its sinister concealed intentions.”
This has made him a serious threat to the Left and their aims ever since his political conversion, documented so compellingly in his essential autobiography Radical Son and explored in other works such as Destructive Generation, co-written with his long-time writing partner, fellow political convert, and Freedom Center co-founder, the late Peter Collier. The Left hates and fears no one more than an apostate from the ideological faith.
One truth that Horowitz has tried for many years to convince the Right to accept is that the radical Left – the ideological wellspring of such totalitarianism as Mao’s Cultural Revolution and its current American incarnation, Cancel Culture – cannot be defeated through polite, fair-minded debate. The Right, Horowitz has always insisted, must abandon its preference of honorable defeat to messy victory; instead, it must cultivate a will to win and a taste for political brawling. This is why he has always described the Freedom Center as, not merely a think tank, but a battle tank.
As the Left’s ruthless pursuit of power has accelerated in recent years, Horowitz has responded with an urgent flurry of calls to arms. His most recent titles – including The Enemy Within, The Final Battle, I Can’t Breathe, Dark Agenda, Take No Prisoners, and now The Radical Mind – are tightly compressed but insightful, scorched-earth attacks on the Left’s corrosive agenda to dismantle our Constitution, our culture, and our country. The Radical Mind clocks in at a streamlined 140 pages of text (with another 20 of source notes) but its six concise chapters manage to address the entire wrecking ball of leftist destruction gaining momentum under the Biden administration.
In “Heading Towards the Abyss,” Horowitz identifies and dissects “the root cause of the lawlessness consuming America,” which is a party “under the control of a Marxist left that believes in breaking the law for the sake of ‘social justice’ and puts its faith in the supremacy of the state.” He also identifies the root cause of the conservative “self-destructive” reticence to recognize that Democrat “policies are criminal, racist and fascist” and to publicly call them out as such.
In “Ideology Uber Alles,” he reminds us that for progressives, “the issue is never the issue. The issue is always the ‘revolution’ against a Constitution that restrains their lust for totalitarian power, and thus their only morality is “the end justifies the means” – in other words, no morality at all.
“White Skin Privilege” traces the invention of that term in the era of the Weathermen domestic terror group and the radical SDS, or Students for a Democratic Society, movement on university campuses during the 1960s. The SDS called for “an all-out fight against ‘white skin privileges’” and “pigs,” or police and military personnel. These terms are “racist poisons intended to dehumanize the enemy,” Horowitz notes. Fifty years later they have permeated the culture as part of a collectivist ideology “which erases the individual in favor of group identities based on race and gender.” The end result has been to smear AmeriKKKa, as the SDS referred to it, as a white supremacist nation.
In the chapter titled “Existential Threat,” Horowitz targets the anti-American Congressional radicals known as “the Squad,” including Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, antisemitic “Palestinian-American” Rashida Tlaib, and Muslim immigration fraud enthusiast Ilhan Omar. Horowitz labels the Squad “a terrorist caucus in the Democrat-run House.”
“A Tsunami of Hate” addresses the division in our nation exacerbated by the Left’s deranged hatred for Donald Trump and his supporters. “If there is an existential threat to American democracy,” Horowitz writes, “surely the tsunami of political hate, the condemnation and dismissal of half the population as ‘white oppressors’ and ‘deplorables’ is a prime source of that threat.”
In “Progressive Blindness,” Horowitz examines the Left’s “sinister stupidity” and its “envy and resentment, which are the key passions of the progressive mind.” He picks apart the Left’s false construction of “a hierarchy of oppression,” declaring,
There is no hierarchy of oppression in America’s constitutional order. But there are such hierarchies in the socialist societies admired by progressives: Cuba, China, Venezuela, Nicaragua, and Russia. The social hierarchy in these countries is determined by the hierarchy and the ruling party that bills itself as the savior of the people, which is precisely how progressives see themselves.
In a short coda titled “Defense of the Republic,” Horowitz warns, “the hour is late, and the forces of darkness are upon us.” We are embroiled in “a battle that pits America’s defenders – believers in ordered liberty – against the believers in the unlimited power and authority of the state.” He adds, rightly, that “the two institutions that will lead the defense of America’s constitutional order are the American family” – because the nuclear family is the first line of defense against the intrusions of the state – “and members – or respecters – of Judeo-Christian religions” – because that community pledges its allegiance to a higher power than the jealous state.
There is so much more depth to this book than the brief chapter highlights summarized above. The Radical Mind: The Destructive Plans of the Woke Left is loaded with ammunition for understanding and countering these subversive fanatics. Like virtually all of Horowitz’s books – certainly his most recent ones – his latest is a must-read battle cry to rally conservatives out of a defeatism and gentility that have plagued our side for too long, to stop playing defense, and to take the fight to the envious haters of American freedom.

WE CAN'T START TO REMAKE THIS COUNTRY UNTIL WE RID IT OF JOE BIDEN!
There is a lot more corruption than I have space for here, but I do sense the worm turning. We’ve had enough time to assess the damage the left has done, and we abhor it. We will rise up.
The self-imagined elite are dragging us to destruction. This isn’t going to end well.
As we survey the American landscape, we cannot help but notice that just about everything has been corrupted by the left.
The justice system has been corrupted by partisan politics to the point where Republicans and conservatives are persecuted and prosecuted at a level far higher than anyone else. We on the right can reliably depend on being prosecuted for “misgendering,” contributing to conservative causes, being a Christian or a Jew, speaking out against the barbaric transing of children, defending ourselves with a firearm, and not being a Democrat. We can depend upon getting arrested for protesting peacefully as the corrupt “Justice” Department singles us out for jail, bankruptcy, or keeping us off election ballots, while really destructive rioters go free.
Medical research has been corrupted by the deliberate downgrading of meritorious research that just so happens to be at odds with the latest leftist perversion du jour. For example, there are research grants for hamster fights.
Elections have been corrupted. Mail-in ballots, demonstrated to be extremely susceptible to fraudulent inflation of Democrat votes, are ready for the next fraud. Dead people vote; people vote multiple times; non-residents vote in other states; and phony ballots are printed and signed with the same handwriting, then run through counting machines multiple times. Computer problems pop up so as to skew the vote.
Education has been corrupted. Universities do not teach students how to get a job, be prosperous, and succeed. Instead, they teach antisemitism, anti-white racism in the guise of “systemic racism” and “anti-racism,” identity politics, and sexual deviancy. Everything on the left is about cultural identity matters: Are you gay? Are you black? Are you trans? Are you non-binary? Are you a Jew-hater? A Christian? It seems as though the left has an aversion to other people being happy, and so leftists tear everything apart in their insecurities and unwarranted anger and envy. They are despicable people.
The American standard of living has been corrupted. We like our gas cars, our gas stoves, our air-conditioning, our steaks and chops, and our suburban life. Enjoyment is forbidden. So is comfort. And so these things must go in order to satisfy the WEF and the American Marxists’ lust for revenge and degradation of our standard of living because...climate change.
Media have been corrupted. Most so-called mainstream media are arms of the Democrat party, flooded with leftists of the most extreme kind. Every “news” show is not news — it’s opinion about what horrific things Trump would do if elected. “News” programs have become an arm of the Education Department, flooding the zone with far-left goofiness or worse, all of a piece in reshaping America into a communist nation.
Entertainment has been corrupted. Disney, Netflix, and other entertainment outlets have taken innocent stories and rewritten them to snatch fantasy away from young people and in its place insert some sort of sexual deviancy. There is no place for childhood anymore. The woke broke entertainment, and I cannot see it coming together without a serious cultural reversal.
The workplace has been corrupted. DIE, thankfully on its way out, has made the workplace hostile, incompetent, and unproductive. In the guise of righting racial wrongs (whatever they are), departments of Diversity, Inclusion, and Equity (which are none of the above) have pocked the job landscape in order to emphasize group identity rather than skill and talent. As a result, the work product across the board in America is degraded, and the least talented get the jobs because...racism, sexism, and misgendering. It will take years to repair the damage and get America’s work force perking on all cylinders again.
The border has been corrupted. Almost ten million illegal entrants have come across our borders, bringing terrorists, sex-traffickers, and criminals. It’s proving to be overwhelming to the cities where they squat, and it must stop. Are we waiting for a massive cyber-attack? This administration is almost single-handedly destroying our sovereignty. Thanks, Joe.
Information has been corrupted. An internet search using almost all search engines brings up the most liberal leftist hits first, leaving the more intelligent pages and studies done by conservatives to be sought out if you’re lucky.
Race relations have been corrupted. Beginning with Barack Obama’s “the police acted stupidly” and moving on to the lionizing of criminal George Floyd, to the 2020 “mostly peaceful” riots, to cashless bail, to corrupt D.A.s in blue cities, race relations have gotten much, much worse.
Sexuality has been corrupted. Men claim to be women and vice versa. Drag queens set the kiddie agenda in schools, and transsexuality has become epidemic, although de-transitioners are becoming more noticeable these days. Meanwhile, young lives have been ruined because of this fad. In addition, no TV or streaming drama is complete without the obligatory sex scene. This has made family watching almost impossible and even non-prudes like me squeamish. Sex scenes are not even necessary to enhance the storylines. It’s just another way the left can degrade something beautiful and sacred.
There is a lot more corruption than I have space for here, but I do sense the worm turning. We’ve had enough time to assess the damage the left has done, and we abhor it. We will rise up.
President Joe Biden’s Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has confirmed that the agency is developing a program that will provide border crossers and illegal aliens released into the United States with photo ID cards.
For more than a year, Breitbart News has chronicled how DHS is planning to roll out a pilot program that will give border crossers and illegal aliens photo ID cards, similar to a driver’s license, upon their release into the United States interior from the southern border.
This, knowing there is no way to confirm the identity of most, if not all, illegal immigrants. They’ll be giving official government ID to military-aged males from enemy countries, establishing false identities for them. Unless government can be certain of the identification of these cardholders, data entry, storage and retrieval will be chaotic at best. We’ll be storing false, misdirecting data on ghosts, criminals, terrorists and spies. These will be alternate social security numbers, rendering the real thing essentially meaningless.
What you'll never see if the Biden Administration prevails.

“[The Office of Immigration Program Evaluation] is leading the ICE Secure Docket Card (SDC) project, which offers a uniform, durable card provided to noncitizens upon release, and facilitates reliable access to commonly lost or damaged immigration-related paperwork,” the ICE report details:
The SDC will be integrated with the Unified Immigration Portal that ICE and [Customs and Border Protection] officers and agents use in the field and the ICE Portal to allow noncitizens access to commonly used documents and services. ICE expects the project to ease ICE personnel workload when encountering noncitizens with the card and decrease the burden on noncitizens when interacting with ICE, including the facilitation of remote reporting for certain low-risk populations. ICE anticipates a limited release in two [Enforcement and Removal Operations] field offices in FY 2024. [Emphasis added]
This is nothing less than normalizing and legalizing illegal immigration. It’s establishing a separate criminal class, yet a class that can never be prosecuted for their crimes. It’s a blatant flaunting of the law. Blue states will use the cards, without any vetting, to issue driver’s licenses, voter registration cards, and all manner of other entitlements. Every card issued is an abetment of a variety of federal crimes, and surrender of our national sovereignty.
The Biden administration warned Texas Republican Gov. Greg Abbott on Thursday that legal action will be taken if the state enforces a new law that allows authorities to arrest, jail, prosecute and deport migrants who enter the country illegally.
A Justice Department official said in a letter sent to Abbott that the law was unconstitutional and “contrary to the US commitment of ensuring the processing of noncitizens consistent with the Immigration and Nationality Act.”
The Mummified Meat Puppet Administration is willfully, daily, violating federal immigration law, surrendering national sovereignty, and exposing Americans to rampant criminality, terrorism and death, yet is determined to ensure that no one raise a finger to enforce the law and protect the country.
SB 4, signed into law by Abbott on Dec. 18, makes illegally entering the US from Mexico a state crime and authorizes police to arrest individuals suspected of crossing the Rio Grande between ports of entry.
The MMPA is so desperate because they know this could dramatically reduce illegal immigration.
Migrants caught illegally entering the country would face a Class B misdemeanor charge carrying a punishment of up to six months in jail. Repeat offenders would be subject to a second-degree felony charge punishable by up to 20 years in prison.
SB 4 allows Texas judges to drop charges against migrants if they agree to be deported.
If there is, apart from letter-of-the-law treason, a greater reason for impeachment, it’s hard to imagine. Biden’s handlers willfully refuse to enforce federal immigration law. The system isn’t broken, it has been abandoned. Joe Biden is personally responsible for seeing that the laws—all of them—are faithfully enforced, but the only remedies are impeachment and refusing to reelect him.
Congressional Democrats/Socialists/Communists are worried. The open border is threatening their reelections. Terrorist acts—increasingly likely—committed by illegal, d/S/C invited, cardholders could cost their cushy jobs. They’re surely holding their collective breath on that account. If Biden is impeached on these grounds, it’s possible there might be enough d/S/C support in the Senate for conviction, particularly if terrorists start slaughtering Americans on American soil, but even that isn’t certain.
What is certain, and terribly ironic, is were Biden facing criminal charges, he couldn’t stand trial--mental incapacity.
The self-imagined elite are dragging us to destruction. This isn’t going to end well.
In Leave the World Behind, the scene with crashed white Teslas makes no technical sense, but it makes perfect sense as a metaphor for the end of technologically driven white civilization. As such, it may be a key to understanding this entire Obama-produced movie.
White cars (self-driving = individualistic) are rushing blindly into a dead end, blocking the road for the good guys in the black car. That road, filled with dysfunctional white cars, represents America. And when the good guys in the black car try to flee this chaos, they are attacked by more stupid white cars racing toward their own ruin.
But if those cars could get here by navigating country roads without crashing, that means their sensors were on — therefore, they wouldn’t be crashing now, either. Likewise, if our civilization has advanced this far, there is no reason to assume that it would be unable to continue to advance. It’s just simple logic.
A metaphor works only if it resonates with real life. With an improbable scenario like this one, it does little more than reveal the mindset of its authors, steeped in anti-colonialist, anti-Western, and anti-American biases.
It sure looks to me that Mexico's President Andres Manuel Lopez-Obrador just gave the U.S. delegation the finger.
To be fair, you can not blame Lopez-Obrador for being angry with Joe Biden.
Not long ago, AMLO, as they know him south of the border, negotiated a pretty good deal with the Trump administration, i.e., "Remain in Mexico." It worked well because it discouraged migrant caravans. Why would you pay something to bring you to the U.S.-Mexico border if you can't get into the U.S.? The objective is to get into the U.S., not spend time in Mexico waiting for a judge to review your case.
So what do we do now?
First, let's recognize that President Lopez-Obrador leaves office in 11 months. Most Mexican presidents leave office and disappear totally. I believe that AMLO has other plans. He wants to be an international leader of the Third World, and speaking for migrants is a big part of his plan.
Second, AMLO is a leftist, as his love of communist regimes worldwide demonstrates.
López Obrador has become a defender of rogue and repressive regimes that have squandered their economies and triggered mass exoduses. These countries need aid but also policies leading to better governance, as we have outlined in our series The Unraveling of Latin America.
Mexico has deported a record number of migrants this year but now says it needs more funding. Last weekend, Mexican officials did nothing to contain a caravan of an estimated 6,000 migrants, a sign they could do more if they wanted to.
Right now, a containment policy to control these migrant flows is needed at the southern Mexican border, and López Obrador, who criticized the U.S. for using barbed wire and physical obstacles to contain migrants, should offer cooperation instead of criticism. His quid pro quo proposal does not look like a common strategy, and the U.S. must be ready to pressure him to be a better partner.
That will require President Biden to engage directly. Right now, he’s on vacation. That’s a mistake when a crisis is at hand.
Yes, our president is on vacation. Worse than that, AMLO is not afraid of him. He knows that nothing will happen. There won't be any U.S. taxes on remittances, or economic sanctions, or designations of Mexico's cartels as terrorist organizations.
Trump got AMLO to work with him. Biden can't. As my late Cuban mother used to say "ColorÃn, Colorado, este cuento se ha acabado," loosely translated to: The story is over and don't expect any changes.
Former President Donald Trump is barreling toward the GOP presidential nomination according to recent polls and the ruling class establishment is petrified.
Trump said he would be a dictator, at least that’s how corporate media framed his words. In a recent interview with Sean Hannity, Trump was asked,
“Under no circumstances, you are promising America tonight, you would never abuse power as retribution against anybody?” Hannity asked Trump in the interview taped in Davenport, Iowa on Tuesday.
“Except for day one,” Trump responded. Trump said on the “day one” he referred to, he would use his presidential powers to close the southern border with Mexico and expand oil drilling.
This is apparently the “Trump the dictator” bit, meaning that Trump on the first day of his potential presidency, would reinstate his first term policies, his duty to preserve, protect and defend the U.S. Constitution.
What Trump’s myriad opponents are having conniptions over is that he might treat his political opponents, the same way Obama and Biden treated their opposition, weaponizing the government against opponents in a manner that Stalin or Mao would approve.
For those worried about Trump trashing the Constitution, that ship has long sailed under the current regime.
Trump may be the last and only chance to resurrect the Constitution.
The Wall Street Journal editorial board, once a bastion of conservatism, now identifies with the ruling class, neocons, big donors, and the open borders, endless wars branch of the modern Republican Party.
The pundits are saying that Donald Trump emerged unscathed from Wednesday night’s debate because only Chris Christie attacked him as a would-be dictator. But that misses something important about what happened on stage. Nikki Haley and Ron DeSantis warned GOP voters that Mr. Trump is likely to fail in a second term and explained why—and the best evidence is the record of his first term.
The record of his first term? Does the WSJ not appreciate his first term achievements?
A massive economic boom with low unemployment, wage growth not just for the laptop class but for all workers, rich and poor, black and white. Add middle class tax relief, massive deregulation, energy independence, fair trade deals, and Middle East peace with the Abraham Accords.
He remade the federal judiciary and nominated three constitutionalist justices for the Supreme Court, partially secured the border despite Congressional opposition, rebuilt the military and kept America out of foreign wars, supported religious liberty and pushed back against socialism and wokeism.
President Biden is delivering the opposite and the Wall Street Journal apparently prefers Biden’s American malaise and disfunction. As do the donor and ruling class elites. They all prefer endless wars and open borders, to heck with working class America.
The ruling class elites include the media, big tech, big finance, academia, Hollywood, woke corporations, and everyone else who has theirs, living safely in gated communities. They send their kids to private schools, not dysfunctional public schools where few graduate knowing how to read or write. They care not a whit about middle class Americans working with a power tool rather than a laptop, driving a used Chevy truck rather than a shiny new Tesla.
What do the voters say? Do they agree with the WSJ that a second Trump term would be a dictatorship and a mess of incompetence? Or do voters prefer the last three years get tossed in the Jimmy Carter trash bin of history next November?
Rasmussen Reports just released a poll showing, “Former President Donald Trump now has a double-digit lead for 2024, as support for re-electing President Joe Biden has faded in the past month.”
Specifically, “In a two-way contest between Biden and Trump, 48% of likely U.S. Voters would choose Trump and 38% would vote for Biden. Another 10% say they’d vote for some other candidate, and four percent (4%) are undecided.”
Going further Rasmussen noted, “This is a reversal of our November survey, when Biden led by four points, with 46% to Trump’s 42%. The new survey also shows stronger support for third-party candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr.”
My how things have changed in the past few months. RFK Jr, as a liberal Democrat, is not a threat to Trump. He will likely take more votes from Biden than from Trump.
Are these numbers a fluke? What do other polls say about the upcoming presidential election?
The RealClearPolitics poll average for the 2024 Republican presidential nomination places Trump at 60 percent, with Ron DeSantis and Nikki Haley in the low teens, the others in low single digits. Trump’s lead is “yuuuge” as he would say.
DeSantis and Haley have had months to get their message out. Fox News has given them ample airtime, genuflecting whenever they interview either of them. Chris Christie is treated as royalty by CNN and MSNBC. If the Haley or DeSantis messages resonated with voters, they would be polling higher than 12%. The Koch brothers and Mitt Romney may like the message, but Joe the Plumber does not.
In Trump’s wake are candidates, who for the most part represent the failed ghosts of elections past – Mitt Romney, John McCain, Paul Ryan, Jeb Bush, and the like. These were establishment choices to manage America’s decline, not make America great again. They would tap the brakes on America’s slide toward Marxism, rather than saying “hell no” and turning the sinking ship around.
Most voters don’t care about Trump’s personality, his big mouth, his Queens accent and attitude, or his mean tweets. They want a president willing to kick the deep state hornet nest and if necessary, make a big mess, to restore American peace, prosperity, safety, and greatness.
Another gauge of voter sentiment is the Rasmussen Reports daily presidential tracking poll, which as of December 15 shows Trump four years ago at 49% total approval, compared with Biden at 43% total approval, reflecting the comparable points in their respective presidencies.
Rasmussen Reports also found that among likely U.S. voters that only 30% think the country is headed in the right direction compared to 64% who believe America is headed down the wrong track. Who is the conductor today of the American train cruising down the wrong track? Joe Biden.
Even the Wall Street Journal begrudgingly acknowledges that the voters may know more than their editorial board. In their recent poll,
President Biden’s political standing is at its weakest point of his presidency, a new Wall Street Journal poll finds, with voters giving him his lowest job-performance marks and favoring Donald Trump for the first time in a head-to-head test of the likely 2024 presidential matchup.
Biden lags behind Trump by 4 percentage points, 47% to 43%, on a hypothetical ballot with only those two candidates.
CNN piles on to the Biden trainwreck. “CNN Polls: Trump leads Biden in Michigan and Georgia as broad majorities hold negative views of the current president.” In Georgia, Trump leads Biden 49% to 44%. In Michigan Trump’s lead is 50% to 40%.
It will be challenging for those states to “find” enough ballots to overcome such a lead after they halt vote counting at 10 p.m. on election night to assess Biden’s deficit and figure out a way to reverse that by the time ballot counting resumes the next day.
Wait, there may be election cheating? Am I an election denier or a conspiracy theorist? Let’s ask voters if they followed the voting rules.
Rasmussen Reports did just that and found, “More than 20% of voters who used mail-in ballots in 2020 admit they participated in at least one form of election fraud.” How many more did not admit it? So much for the 2020 election being the “most secure in history.”
For those pining for another Ronald Reagan, good luck. Trump is the closest thing we have had to Reagan in the past four decades. Not the Bushes or any of the other big talk, little action GOP Reagan wannabes since then. 50 years from now, America may wish for another Trump, but these types of leaders are rare as they buck an extremely entrenched and powerful administrative state and candidate “selection” process.
Both the Republican and Democrat parties have morphed into a single uni-party with little difference, except on the fringes of each party. Voters see through this and by supporting Trump are saying enough. Forget the RNC or DNC and find us a candidate who wants to focus on America rather than personal and political power and money.
As James Carville once said about the economy, for this election, “It’s the voters stupid.” How refreshing if the GOP for once would listen and respect its voters, rather than heaping scorn and ridicule on the base of their party.
Republicans on the Senate Committee on Rules and Administration, led by Sen. Katie Britt (R-AL), have introduced legislation that would give states the power to verify the American citizenship of applicants registering to vote via mail.
This week, Britt and fellow Republicans introduced the “Citizen Ballot Protection Act” which would give states the ability to more accurately verify that only American citizens are being approved for voter registrations.
Britt said the legislation is necessary as several blue states, counties, and cities pass ordinances opening voting rights to foreign nationals — at least for municipal elections.
“Voting in our country is a sacred right that must solely be limited to American citizens. To allow States to uphold this principle should be simple commonsense,” Britt said:
We are seeing certain cities across our nation begin to openly allow noncitizens to vote in local elections. This effectively disenfranchises hardworking American citizens, insults those American citizens who came to our country legally and took the time and effort to go through the citizenship process, and undermines faith in our entire electoral system — which is a cornerstone of our nation that we cannot allow to crumble. [Emphasis added]
It should not be controversial that states have the legal right to prevent noncitizens — including illegal migrants and official representatives of foreign adversaries — from voting in state and federal elections. I’m proud to work with Representative Palmer and my Senate colleagues to ensure that we pass this legislation and stand up for the right of Americans – and only Americans – to vote in American elections. [Emphasis added]
The legislation would amend the National Voting Rights Act to allow states to require proof of citizenship for those applicants registering to vote in state and federal elections by mail.
Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) as well as Sens. Deb Fischer (R-NE), Ted Cruz (R-TX), Shelley Moore Capito (R-WV.), Roger Wicker (R-MS.), Cindy Hyde-Smith (R-MS), and Bill Hagerty (R-TN) are co-sponsoring the bill.
Last week, Rep. Nicole Malliotakis (R-NY) accused New York City officials of attempting to register to vote newly arrived border crossers and illegal aliens living in city shelters.
That accusation came after New York City Democrats sought to give municipal voting rights to nearly a million foreign nationals living across the city in 2021. That effort, though, was struck down last year by the New York Supreme Court.

Border Patrol Seizes $10 Million Worth of Meth, Cocaine in San Diego
New Jersey: Islamic Cleric Prays That Non-Muslims’ Children Become ‘Booty’ for Muslims
The crime show “Fatal Family Feuds” on Saturday night aired a peculiarly unsatisfying episode. While it offered the usual lurid details of a heinous crime, it was unusually reticent about what caused that crime, and said nothing about why similar crimes are so common in some areas of the world. That’s because the root causes of the crime in question were inextricably bound up with the left’s favorite religion, Islam. While TikTokers are converting left and right, this was a particularly inopportune time to cast aspersions upon the religion of Osama bin Laden and Hamas.
The crime in question took place on Oct. 20, 2009, in Peoria, Arizona, when a man named Faleh Almaleki got into his Jeep Cherokee and ran down his twenty-year-old daughter Noor, as well as her boyfriend’s mother, Amal Khalaf.
Noor died not long thereafter, and Faleh Almaleki was charged with first-degree murder, aggravated assault, and two counts of leaving the scene of a serious accident. Faleh Almaleki did not, however, face the death penalty. His attorney, public defender Billy Little, requested that the County Attorney’s Office not seek the death penalty because Almaleki was a Muslim. “An open process,” he explained, “provides some level of assurance that there is no appearance that a Christian is seeking to execute a Muslim for racial, political, religious or cultural beliefs.”
And indeed, the County Attorney’s Office ultimately decided not to seek the death penalty, although it denied that Little’s request had anything to do with the decision. County Attorney Office spokesman Mike Scerbo insisted: “Cultural considerations played no part in the decision not to seek the death penalty.” Notably, he didn’t make the same denial about the other factors Little enumerated: racial, political, or religious beliefs.
Cultural considerations, meanwhile, played a decisive role in Faleh Almaleki’s actions, as he himself avowed. “By his own admission,” said county prosecutor Stephanie Low, “this was an intentional act, and the reason was that his daughter had brought shame on him and his family. This was an attempt at an honor killing.” Felah Almaleki was found not guilty on a charge of premeditated murder, but was convicted of second degree murder and is in prison now.
“Fatal Family Feuds” has no problem discussing the murder of Noor Almaleki as the result of a clash of cultures. “Amal was raising her children in the Western culture,” said Maricopa County prosecutor Laura Reckhart. “Felah and Sahem,” Noor’s mother, “tried to raise their family in the traditional Iraqi culture.” Noor wanted to live an American life, and her father strenuously objected to that. Her friend Heather Goodin recalled: “Noor definitely wanted to be independent. She couldn’t wait to move out.”
In keeping with its overarching theme, however, the show depicts the murder of Noor Almaleki as the fallout from a feud between her own family and that of her boyfriend. Journalist Abigail Pesta is quoted as saying that Noor’s desire for independence “was the root of an incredible family feud that just escalated into something unthinkable.” Goodin, however, states the case more accurately: “Her dad wanted her to live the way he wanted her to live. They just wanted her to stop being so Americanized.” Oxygen.com explains: “Felah was adamant that Noor not have any relationship of any type with other males, Reckhart said.” Amal Khalaf’s son Marwan “told investigators that Felah saw Noor’s actions as ‘bringing dishonor to the family.’”
Where did he get this idea? Why did it move him to murder his own daughter? About this, the show says nothing, because it’s all about Islam. “Fatal Family Feuds” gives viewers no hint of the fact that the “traditional Iraqi culture” in which Noor Almaleki was raised is deeply rooted in Islam.
In the Qur’an, a mysterious figure, known as Khidr in Islamic tradition, kills a boy in an apparently random and gratuitous attack. He then explains: “And as for the boy, his parents were believers, and we feared that he would overburden them by transgression and disbelief. So we intended that their Lord should substitute for them one better than him in purity and nearer to mercy.” (18:80-81) The import is clear: killing a child for impiety is not unjustified.
And according to Islamic law, “retaliation is obligatory against anyone who kills a human being purely intentionally and without right.” However, “not subject to retaliation” is “a father or mother (or their fathers or mothers) for killing their offspring, or offspring’s offspring.” (Reliance of the Traveller o1.1-2).
Muslims commit 91 percent of honor killings worldwide. The Palestinian Authority gives pardons or suspended sentences for honor murders. Iraqi women have asked for tougher sentences for Islamic honor murderers, who get off lightly now. Syria in 2009 scrapped a law limiting the length of sentences for honor killings, but “the new law says a man can still benefit from extenuating circumstances in crimes of passion or honor ‘provided he serves a prison term of no less than two years in the case of killing.’” And in 2003 the Jordanian Parliament voted down on Islamic grounds a provision designed to stiffen penalties for honor killings. Al-Jazeera reported that “Islamists and conservatives said the laws violated religious traditions and would destroy families and values.”
“Fatal Family Feuds” wouldn’t dare tell viewers such things. And so they’re helping ensure that such murders will happen again in our vibrantly diverse new America.
JOE BIDEN, A SOCIOPATH, WILL ALWAYS BE ON THE OTHER SIDE.
Joe shipped billions of dollars of our war material to Ukraine -- which coincidentally was another multi-million-dollar benefactor of the Biden family. While he armed Ukraine, our own military has fallen to its lowest level of preparedness since before WWII. But our soldiers do get their pronouns correct now.
Joe funded Hamas, using Iran as a financial cutout. Hamas then committed the single largest one-day killing of Jews since the Holocaust. Hamas’ Bidenbucks facilitated murder, gang rape, kidnapping, and infanticide. While the world watched in horror, Joe went on another beach vacation.
BIDEN'S CORRUPT REGIME IS ONLY GEARED TO PROTECT JOE AND THE BIDEN CRIME FAMILY OF PARASITE LAWYERS. AFTER THAT, IT'S OPEN BORDERS FOR 15 MILLION NEW ILLEGALS WITH THOUSANDS MORE JUMPING THE BORDER DAILY.
According to the IMF, Iran’s currency reserves fell from $122.47 billion to under $15 billion in 2019, before rising to $42 billion in 2023. That’s without the $6 billion the administration tried to put in Tehran’s Qatari bank account this year. In July, the White House announced that it had given more than $315 million to the Palestinians this year -- and nearly a billion since the administration took office.
Brigadier General Mohammad Reza Naqdi, coordinating commander of the Iranian Revolutionary Guards Corps, has announced that Iran will close the Mediterranean Sea in retaliation for “U.S. war crimes” in Gaza. "They shall soon await the closure of the Mediterranean Sea, (the Strait of) Gibraltar and other waterways."
It is an expansion of attacks -- both verbal and military -- by Iran and its proxies for years but ramped up since the Hamas atrocities against Israel on October 7. U.S. forces in Iraq and Syria have been attacked at least 150 times since President Joe Biden took office, two U.S. defense officials told VOA. More than 103 rocket and drone attacks have occurred since Oct. 17.
Houthi terrorists have fired on more than 100 ships in the Red Sea and beyond since November. They claim the ships, including American ships, are Israeli or traveling to Israel and are thus, somehow, legitimate targets. Ships of several nations were affected and some large shipping companies -- including Maersk and BP -- said that, at least temporarily, they would not use the Red Sea to move cargo to the Mediterranean. Oil prices immediately rose two percent.
This is an act of war and should be treated by the U.S. as one. USCENTCOM operates in the Red Sea and has a firm grasp on Houthi -- and Iranian -- capabilities. Israel is a member of CENTCOM and should be able to call on its assets.
Instead, the U.S. formulated something called Operation Prosperity Guardian (OPG). It is already on life-support as three major American allies announced they won’t participate. The French Defense Minister said that French naval assets in the region would remain under French command. Italian sources report that the Italian navy will respond to requests from Italian ships, but not in cooperation with OPG. Spain’s naval assets will be used only in coordination with NATO and/or the EU.
In addition to BG Naqdi’s boasts, Iran responded to Western hesitance with an expansion of Iranian assistance to the Houthis, who have now attacked a ship in the Indian Ocean. A U.S. National Security Council spokesperson said, “Iranian-provided tactical intelligence has been critical in enabling Houthi targeting of maritime vessels since the group commenced attacks in November,” adding that the drones and missiles the Houthis have been using for the attacks were also provided by Iran.
This is what happens when a country is nice to people who want to destroy it and all its friends. That would be the Biden administration being nice to Iran and its friends.
One of President Biden’s first moves in 2021 was to remove the Houthis from the terror-sponsor list. Oil sale waivers allowed Iran access to billions of dollars.According to the IMF, Iran’s currency reserves fell from $122.47 billion to under $15 billion in 2019, before rising to $42 billion in 2023. That’s without the $6 billion the administration tried to put in Tehran’s Qatari bank account this year. In July, the White House announced that it had given more than $315 million to the Palestinians this year -- and nearly a billion since the administration took office. The UN embargo on Iran’s production and sale of ballistic missiles expired in November with no U.S. comment. Last week, a Venezuelan money-launderer under indictment in the U.S. was released and shipped back to Venezuela -- his clients included Hezb’allah.
None of which “moderated” Iran or Hamas or the Houthis -- there is nothing “moderate” about people whose religious ideology drives them to death for themselves and others.
And all that time, Iran was shipping missiles, drones, and precision-guided weapons factories to its proxies -- and selling drones to Russia for use in Ukraine. By distributing its assets around the region, Iran appeared to be hoping that attacks on America (or Israel) would escape direct American (or Israeli) retaliation. Thus far, the mullahs have been right about the U.S., which has declined, until now, to retaliate (Israel is a different story).
This week, the U.S. finally struck back after an Iranian drone strike wounded three American soldiers in Iraq. But the retaliation was also in Iraq -- meaning Iran fired from Iran into Iraq and the U.S. did not go after the perpetrators. When Syria used chemical weapons on its own people, the Trump administration destroyed the al Shayrat military air base from which the attack was launched. We have the assets to do that to Iran and to the Houthis.
Since World War II, the United States has been the preeminent guarantor of freedom of navigation in the face of difficult and ongoing trends -- the establishment of dozens of independent and sometimes hostile countries lining the waterways, rather than colonies with colonial troops; the rise of Chinese and Russian fleets; and the expansion of Iran.
But we reflagged Kuwaiti oil tankers in the 1980s during the Iran-Iraq war -- leading the late Johnny Carson to opine that since those were now our ships, that was now our oil. We led an international coalition to prevent North Korean smuggling and one to fight off Somali pirates. We carry out freedom of navigation exercises in the South China Sea and the Taiwan Straits.
But we need two things ultimately to be successful -- a plan and allies. Both appear threadbare at the moment.
Joe Biden Silent on U.S. Troops Injured in Iraq But Wishes Americans ‘Happy Kwanzaa’
President Joe Biden made no public comment about U.S. troops being injured in northern Iraq on Christmas Day in a drone attack by Iran-backed militants.
The attack against U.S. troops, claimed by Kataib Hezbollah militants, left three U.S. troops injured — one critically so.
He did, however, post on social media wishing Americans a “Happy Kwanzaa” from both his official and personal social media accounts.
Biden then departed for a vacation to the U.S. Virgin Islands.
It is the first time a U.S. service member was critically injured in the spate of attacks against U.S. troops stationed in Iraq and Syria by Iran-backed groups since October 17.
The attacks came after the Iran-backed terrorists threatened attacks against U.S. troops if U.S.-ally Israel invaded Gaza in response to Hamas’s terrorist attack against Israel on October 7, which killed more than 1,200 people, many of them civilians.
There have been more than 100 attacks against U.S. troops to date, but Biden has ordered fewer than ten counterstrikes and has opted to hit mostly weapons and ammunition storage facilities.
After that attack that critically injured the service member, Biden ordered a counterstrike “against three locations utilized by Kataib Hezbollah and affiliated groups.”
Central Command (CENTCOM) said in a statement that early assessments indicate the strike “likely” killed a “number” of Kataib Hezbollah militants.
“Early assessments indicate that these U.S. airstrikes destroyed the targeted facilities and likely killed a number of Kataib Hezbollah militants,” CENTCOM said in a statement.
However, the Iraqi government said the U.S. strikes killed one Iraqi serviceman, wounded 18 people, and called them a “clear hostile act,” according to Reuters.
The U.S. strikes were “an unacceptable violation of Iraqi sovereignty,” a government statement said, while also criticizing attacks against bases where U.S. troops are stationed.
Two Iraqi security sources told Reuters that the U.S. strikes targeted the headquarters of the Iraqi armed group Kataib Hezbollah in the Iraqi city of Hilla south of Baghdad and that a fighter from Kataib Hezbollah was killed in the strikes, and 16 were wounded.
You have to love it when someone reassures you of some threat, then says he’ll do something about it...and never does.
And by love it, I mean absolutely loathe it.
That’s exactly the position that the DHS and the FBI have put themselves in. They’ve warned Americans that there could be some kind of terror threat due to the ongoing Israel/Hamas war, and said they would be monitoring the situation, but they’re doing little else to actually secure our borders or keep our street safe.
“But we got your back, guys!” Sure.
In a statement made a little while back, the FBI and the Department of Homeland Security announced potential “heightened” threats to public safety this holiday season, believing there are some extremists out there in the United States who could do harm due to what’s happening with the war.
“We take all potential threats seriously and will work closely with our law enforcement partners to determine their credibility, share information, and take appropriate action,” the bureau noted.
That’s great. But...is that enough?
Over the last few months, I’ve seen a disturbing trend that’s still going on, and while the FBI and DHS insist that the matter’s in good hands, I’m not so sure.
That’s because, over the past few months, neither department has really done anything in terms of securing our borders. There hasn’t been any talk about hiring additional Border Patrol agents to keep migrants out, nor has there been any discussion — aside from a quick promise by President Joe Biden — about fortifying it.
Not only that, but Biden has flat-out refused to visit the border in any capacity to see what’s going on firsthand. His administration has also gone as far as to condemn the Republicans who actually cared enough to go down there and seeing what was going on, dismissing them as political stunts.
You’re kidding me, right? Instead of actually seeing what’s wrong with your country through your own eyes, you’re instead assuming everything’s okay and quickly dismissing the opinions of those that have actually seen it? Sure, Joe.
Let’s move on. Several cities have been ransacked by criminal activity over the past few months. Portland isn’t what it used to be; several businesses in San Francisco have closed; and don’t even get me started on the mess that’s taking place in New York City, with thousands of officers leaving their post.
And yet there simply isn’t any effort from ol’ Joe to hire new officers. He promised long ago that he would “fund the police,” but there hasn’t been any sort of bill to provide them the much-needed funds that were yanked away years ago with the debacle that was the “defund the police” campaign. He supports them, sure, but only so far. Actual effort just can’t be provided.
That makes this whole thing ironic. The DHS and the FBI warn of “threats to public safety” but won’t lift a finger. It’s up to the officers still on our streets to keep people safe — the men and women who are often ridiculed for simply wearing a badge when, in truth, they are the greatest defense this country has right now.
With that, I offer a hearty “happy holidays” message to our men and women in blue. They deserve it, having been through so much over the years and still getting little to no support from those government types who should be treating them better — especially in Boston, where all hell appears to be breaking loose, and a select few, who could resolve the matter, choose to do anything but.
I hope 2024 brings some much-needed changes, because, honestly, it’s about time we did something to stop these threats to the United States, instead of simply saying we will. Let’s keep the promises that are made, rather than just throw them out there for that public exposure.
Have a great holiday season, all!

In the aftermath of Hamas's Oct. 7 terror attack against Israel, left-wing nonprofit Climate Justice Alliance expressed "unwavering solidarity with the Palestinian freedom struggle" and blamed the attack on Israeli "settler-colonialism." Now, the Biden administration is entrusting the group to distribute $50 million in taxpayer funds.
President Joe Biden's Environmental Protection Agency announced the move in a Wednesday press release, which named Climate Justice Alliance as one of several "national grantmakers" tasked with doling out $50 million to local organizations in the name of "environmental justice." In order to receive the taxpayer funds, those organizations will primarily work with the alliance, not the Biden administration. As a "grantmaker," the left-wing nonprofit is tasked with awarding "subgrants"—which range from $150,000 to $350,000 each—and implementing "tracking and reporting systems."
The decision raises questions as to how Biden's EPA landed on Climate Justice Alliance for the program, given that the group has publicly condemned the administration over its support for the Jewish state. Climate Justice Alliance, a network of nearly 90 left-wing environmental groups from across the country, issued an Oct. 20 statement accusing Biden of using "US taxpayer dollars … to support a policy of genocide."
"With this newest round of genocidal attacks by Israel on the civilian population … the Israel government has defied international law," the group said. "President Biden must oppose this."
In addition to its criticism of Biden over the Democrat's handling of the war, Climate Justice Alliance has worked to justify Hamas's terror attack on the Jewish state.
The "Free Palestine" section of the group's website includes a statement from its sister organization, It Takes Roots, which calls the attack "the most recent escalation in the 75-year history of settler-colonialism and violence across historic Palestine" and expresses "unwavering solidarity with the Palestinian freedom struggle for self-determination and to live freely with their human rights fully intact on their lands."
Climate Justice Alliance has also made clear that it cannot separate its environmental activism from the Palestinian cause. One week ago, the group released a video titled, "The path to climate justice travels through a free Palestine," which "uses an anti-colonial framework to show how Climate Justice and the liberation of Palestine are connected."
"Our hope in creating this new resource is to mobilize additional sectors of the climate movement for the fight to free Palestine," the group said, "and to begin to shift the politics of the mainstream climate movement from carbon fundamentalism to climate justice."
In some cases, groups affiliated with the alliance have broken the law to express their contempt for Israel. One of the group's members, the Grassroots Global Justice Alliance, has helped organize illegal anti-Israel protests in the Capitol rotunda and other Capitol complex buildings.
Neither the EPA nor Climate Justice Alliance responded to requests for comment. Vice President Kamala Harris in the EPA's Wednesday press release said the money to Climate Justice Alliance and other groups would "put equity at the center of our nation's largest investment in climate history."
The EPA program that enlists Climate Justice Alliance to distribute taxpayer-funded "subgrants" is called the Environmental Justice Thriving Communities Grantmaking program and is funded through Biden's Inflation Reduction Act. As part of the program, Climate Justice Alliance and 10 other groups will receive $50 million in taxpayer funds that they will then distribute to "community-based nonprofit organizations and other eligible organizations representing disadvantaged communities."
Climate Justice Alliance has significant control over that money. The EPA's press release notes that the group and other "grantmakers" are in charge of designing their own "comprehensive application and submission processes" before they "award environmental justice subgrants, implement tracking and reporting systems, and provide resources and support to communities."
Judge Glock, senior fellow and director of research at the Manhattan Institute, said that while the federal government "does occasionally select grantees to send out subawards," the EPA's new environmental justice program is unique given its "size and the incredible level of discretion given to the grantees to make subawards."
"Something that is on multiple levels an incredibly broad, general program with not very clear goals, and then to designate these grantmakers to make their own grants with even less clear goals, I certainly haven't seen anything like this before," Glock told the Washington Free Beacon. "And it's a lot of money—it's not a little amount of money, and they're going to some pretty extreme groups."
In addition to its anti-Israel activism, Climate Justice Alliance is a staunch supporter of the "Green New Deal movement," which it says stems from "decades of Indigenous/frontline wisdom." The group also touts its efforts to lead a "just transition" toward green energy and away from "the profit-driven industrial economy rooted in patriarchy and white supremacy."
Climate Justice Alliance announced its participation in the EPA program in a Wednesday statement, saying it is "excited and ready to serve as a bridge, model, and catalyst among organizations nationwide to … strengthen the environmental justice movement."
"We look forward to ensuring that thousands of $150,000 to $350,000 EPA grants move to marginalized, environmental justice communities to address historic harms," said Jacqueline Patterson, founder of the Chisholm Legacy Project, a Climate Justice Alliance member.
In 2019, Yousra Fazili addressed a congressional hearing to complain about the arrest of her cousin by Indian authorities. The woman who now serves as Chief of Staff for the Pentagon Comptroller claimed that her cousin was the innocent victim of oppressive Indian authorities.
According to the daughter of Kashmiri Muslim immigrants, her cousin Mubeen Shah had been arrested under India’s Public Safety Act even though he was “not a politician or a dissident, he isn’t a freedom fighter, or even a kid in the street throwing stones. He’s just a businessman. His life’s work has focused on bringing economic opportunity to Kashmir.”
In reality, as the Hindu Post noted, Shah had “lionized Kashmiri jihadists, agreed with a description of convicted terrorists as ‘inspirations for the youth,’ and promised that ‘we all are ready to spill our blood’” to keep the region Muslim. On Facebook, Shah appeared to have posted a picture describing Mohammad Afzal Guru, an Islamic terrorist tied to the ‘The Army of Muhammad’, which is affiliated with Al Qaeda, as the “Pride of Kashmir”. Guru had been executed for his role in a December 2001 attack on the Indian parliament.
Fortunately for Shah, he had his Fazili family deeply embedded in America’s political establishment. Yousra’s sister, Sameera Fazili had been brought in as a senior policy advisor to Obama’s National Economic Council. And when Biden took office, she became the deputy assistant to the president and the deputy director of the National Economic Council.
When Shah was arrested, Sameera and Yousra Fazili “dialed friends in the State Department” and the State Department demanded information about him from the Indian government. Rep. Pramila Jayapal, a radical leftist sympathetic to Islamic terrorists, agitated for his release.
Soon Shah was out and Yousra Fazili was in, joining her sister in a high-level position in the Biden administration. Where Sameera had worked on the economic side of things, Yousra became the Special Assistant to the Assistant Secretary of Defense for Nuclear, Chemical and Biological Defense Programs three years after agitating on behalf of a terrorist supporter.
It was incredible even by the standards of an administration that seemed to have abandoned even the most elementary forms of background checks and security screenings.
But before long, Yousra Fazili appeared to be providing materials on Islam to federal contractors like Booz Allen Hamilton and then to the Defense Intelligence Agency. She made the leap to the Department of Defense, first serving as the Special Assistant to the Assistant Secretary of Defense for Nuclear, Chemical and Biological Defense Programs and now serves as the Chief of Staff to the Comptroller and Chief Financial Officer of the Pentagon.
But before that she was working for the state sponsor of Hamas.
Rep. Jack Bergman, a retired Marine Corps lieutenant general, wrote a letter to Secretary of Defense Austin, expressing his concern “about the security clearances and responsibilities entrusted to Yousra Fazili, the Chief of Staff for the Comptroller and Chief Financial Officer of the Pentagon” due to her past work as “‘strategic’ advisor to Meshal Al-Thani, the Qatari Ambassador to the U.S., for over three years.”
Qatar is a close ally of Iran, hosts Hamas leaders and has ties to Islamic terrorist groups all over the world. Reports link the Qatari royal family to Al Qaeda. The Islamic terror state harbored 9/11 mastermind Khalid Sheikh Mohammed who escaped when Qatari officials allegedly tipped him off and he left on a “a specially equipped government executive jet, complete with blacked-out windows.”
Furthermore, as Rep. Bergman points out, Qatar was engaged in covert hostilities against the United States. Fazili worked for the “Qatari Ambassador at the time that her client was targeting prominent Americans in an effort to silence Qatar’s critics, including the then-Chairman of the House Foreign Affairs Committee, Ed Royce, and the former acting head of the Central Intelligence Agency, Michael Morell.”
How does someone go from working for an ally of Iran and Hamas to a prominent position at the Pentagon in a matter of years?
The failure by the Biden administration and the Pentagon to perform even the most elementary vetting of Yousra Fazili is a massive national security failure. Yousra Fazili had testified on behalf of her cousin, while lying about his support for Islamic terrorists, and had publicly supported Islamic terrorists linked to Al Qaeda. The efforts by the Fazili sisters to rally support for him in the State Department should have made that public knowledge in D.C.
Yousra’s sister Sameera, despite her role in the Obama and the Biden administrations, also had a troubling past with extremist groups.
When Biden brought her into the National Economic Council, it was revealed that Sameera was a member of Stand With Kashmir (SWK) “which was founded by her cousin, Hafsa Kanjwal” and which had “praised and defended the actions of a number of violent Islamists” including Asiya Andrabi who had “met with Al Qaeda officials and told them that if ‘you belong to Sheikh Osama’s Al-Qaeda then you are very welcome because he was a legitimate leader of Jihad.’”
Her cousin, Hafsa Kanjwal appeared at a pro-Hamas rally and at foreign conference led by a former Palestinian Islamic Jihad board member, and called for Muslims operating in America to “put a check on American exceptionalism.” Finally she’s an instructor at The People’s Forum: an organization funded by a Chinese Communist based operation whose offices face a “red banner that reads, in Chinese, ‘Always Follow the Party’ and a “plate depicting Xi.”
How exactly does someone a few degrees of separation from Al Qaeda go on to serve as Chief of Staff for the Pentagon Comptroller?
The exposure of Yousra Fazili comes only a few weeks after it was revealed that Ariane Tabatabai, the Chief of Staff to the Assistant Secretary of Defense for Special Operations and Low Intensity Conflict, had worked with an operation set up by the Iranian government and coordinated her congressional testimony with them. Despite published emails between Tabatabai and Iran, the Pentagon allowed her to keep her position and her security clearance.
“We have confirmed that Ms. Tabatabai’s employment and clearance processes were carried out in accordance with all appropriate laws and policies,” a Department of Defense official replied to Sen. Joni Ernst.
Two Muslim Pentagon Chiefs of Staff were shown to have worked with enemy nations. And the Defense Department and the Biden administration has chosen to keep them on the job.
When associates and employees of enemy governments that are tied to Islamic terrorism can waltz in and take high-ranking positions in the Department of Defense, national security no longer means anything. The Pentagon has been infiltrated by political hires who would have been disqualified from even being considered twenty years ago on the basis of their associations, their views and their links to enemy governments.
Now Iran and Qatar can plant their employees and catspaws at key positions throughout the Pentagon. And we wonder why our intelligence and our operations are so badly compromised.

Direct Action Campaign Calls Out Pro-Hamas Campus Hate Groups
[Robert Spencer's new book, The Critical Qur'an, will be out May 3. Preorder now: HERE.]
If I were queen, I would reward every reader who completed Robert Spencer's new book, The Critical Qur'an: Explained from Key Islamic Commentaries and Contemporary Historical Research. The Critical Qur'an is an essential book that every thinking person would benefit from reading. About one in four humans is a Muslim. Given child marriage, polygyny, and women's low status, Muslims have high fertility rates and the percentage of the world's population that is Muslim is predicted to increase till Islam is the world's majority religion in 2075. While it is true that the Qur'an is often not read or understand by most Muslims, Muslims do revere the Qur'an. Muslims may have little idea what the book contains, but they are ready to kill over it. When, in 2005, Newsweek circulated false rumors that Americans were flushing Qur'ans down toilets – which is of course impossible – at least seventeen people were killed in ensuing violence and "a council of more than 300 mullahs …threatened to declare holy war."
In the past, reading the Qur'an was difficult. Some translations used pseudo-King-James English, for example archaic forms like "thee, thou, thine," in an attempt to make the Qur'an sound Biblical, and, therefore, holy. Some translations attempt to paper over the Qur'an's lack of clarity by adding parenthetical fixes. For example, Qur'an 2:1 begins "Alif Lam Meem." No one knows what this means. One translation tries to "help" the reader with a parenthetical explanation: "Alif-Lam-Mim. [These letters are one of the miracles of the Quran and none but Allah (Alone) knows their meanings]." The reader is left to wonder how the incoherent equals the miraculous. Translators try to draw a smiley face over darker Qur'anic passages. "Jihad," which clearly means actual warfare to claim territory, booty, corpses, and slaves for Allah, is translated as "struggle." Spencer's new translation avoids these pitfalls, and, on the sentence level, it is easy to read.
Many make assumptions about the Qur'an based on false comparisons to the Bible. The works are different in important ways. The King James Bible contains 783,137 words in 66 books. These books were composed over the course of hundreds of years in three different languages, Hebrew, Aramaic, and Greek. Christians and Jews agree that their scriptures were not actually written by God himself, but by roughly forty different human authors. The genres of Biblical books include hymns,letters, proverbs, prophecy, erotica, history, allegory, andreportage. Jews and Christians have long engaged in exegesis of their sacred texts – that is, Jews and Christians debate what Bible passages mean and how they should be applied. Jews and Christians respect hard copies of their scriptures, but they do not worship these hard copies, nor do most attribute supernatural attributes to them. To do so would be idolatry.
The Qur'an contains c. 77,430 words, making it less than one tenth the length of the Bible. Islam teaches that the Qur'an was never written by anyone. It is uncreated. Like God himself, the Qur'an has always existed and will always exist. There are numerous rules for handling the Qur'an. Kufar – Non-Muslims – should never touch the Qur'an in Arabic, but may touch "interpretations" in other languages. One must say "interpretation" because the Qur'an exists only in Arabic, the language of Allah. Muslims must perform ablutions before reading the Qur'an. The Qur'an must be stored in a specially designated place, and never be put on the floor or taken into a bathroom.
To say that the Qur'an was created, as opposed to eternally existing, is a death penalty offense. Even Western scholars have hesitated to explore the Qur'an's origins. For example, scholar Christoph Luxenberg must hide behind a pseudonym to protect his life. The Qur'an "leaves no room for dispute"; see also Qur'an 33:36. Indeed, the Qur'an suggests that even a second of doubt will lead to an eternity in hell (e.g. 49:15) . Thus, rather than debating or discussing the meaning of the Qur'an, Islam places emphasis on memorization. A Muslim once said to Robert Spencer that he had memorized the entire Qur'an, and one day he was going to find out what it says. The hafiz, or Qur'an memorizer, did not speak Arabic, and had no idea of the meaning of the sounds he had memorized.
Mohammed Hijab, an Islamic apologist, demonstrated Muslim beliefs about the magic powers of the Qur'an in a November 10, 2021, YouTube discussion with Dr. Jordan Peterson. Hijab began to recite in Arabic, in the voice prescribed for reading the Qur'an. That prescribed voice is a singsong, nasal drone, with drawn out vowels. Peterson asked what Hijab's point was. Why recite Arabic to me, a non-Arabic speaker? Hijab said, "We believe that the Qur'an has divine qualities itself. We believe it is a physical cure." Just exposing Peterson to the sounds of the Qur'an might cause Peterson to convert to Islam. Ibn Kathir, an important exegete, claimed that recitation of Sura 2 causes Satan to fart. It can be argued that Islam treats the Qur'an as if it were a "divine, conscious agent."
Muslim history claims that Islam was founded by an orphaned, illiterate, seventh-century Meccan caravan driver named Muhammad who was visited by the angel Jibril (from the Biblical Gabriel) who ordered him to recite. Muhammad's followers wrote down his recitations and compiled them into the Qur'an. Textual criticism suggests that the Qur'an is a compilation of heavily edited, pre-existing material. Recent scholarship theorizes that, during the Arab Conquest, conquerors decided that their new, Arab empire, no less than the Christian Byzantine and Zoroastrian Persian empires, required a state religion. These Arab conquerors took bits and pieces of Jewish,Christian, Zoroastrian and Pagan material and compiled them into the Qur'an.
Christianity's early centuries were rocked by Christological debates. These debates asked, "What was the nature of Jesus?"Some said Jesus was human; others said he was divine; still others argued that Jesus was some combination of human and divine. Jesus' proposed divinity troubled many. They understood the divinity of Jesus as an assault on Judaism's monotheism. Some were offended by Jesus's divinity for a different reason. If Jesus was both fully divine and fully human, then God urinated and defecated. These bodily functions were seen as beneath a divinity.
Islam's emphasis on Jesus being merely a man, not a divinity, may testify to the influence of nontrinitarian Christianity on the formulation of Islam. The shahada is the Islamic confession of faith. "There is no god but Allah and Muhammad is the messenger of God." Merely stating the shahada makes one a Muslim, yet it may be a buried statement of nontrinitarian Christian creeds. "There is not God but Allah" is a rejection of Jesus' divinity and the trinity. According to new theories, "Muhammad is the messenger of God" may be a reference to Jesus. "Muhammad" is translated as "the praised one" and "the messenger of God" is a denial of Jesus' divinity. "The praised one" was but a messenger, not God himself. The nontrinitarian Christians' discomfort at the thought of God urinating or defecating is reflected in al-Wahidi's commentary on the Qur'an. "Our Lord does not eat or drink nor has He any need to relieve Himself" but Jesus "was fed like any other child, and then he ate and drank and relieved himself … Then how could he be the son of Allah?"
The Old Testament recounts the history of the creation of the world and God's choosing the Jewish people as his own, and leading them out of slavery in Egypt. The New Testament offers Jesus' biography, a short history of the early church, and the letters of early Christians. No clear history of what is conventionally thought of as the early days of Islam is to be found in the Qur'an itself. There's no caravan driver, no Mecca, no new religious revelation, and the word "Muhammad" is mentioned only four times, and it is not clear that the word refers to a person or if it means, only, "praised one." Many argue that early references to Muhammad may in fact be references to Jesus.
Muslims express exaggerated praise for the Qur'an. For example, Ibn Kathir said, "The Arabic language is the most eloquent, plain, deep and expressive of the meanings that might arise in one's mind. Therefore, the most honorable Book, was revealed in the most honorable language, to the most honorable Prophet and Messenger, delivered by the most honorable angel, in the most honorable land on earth, and its revelation started during the most honorable month of the year, Ramadan. Therefore, the Qur'an is perfect in every respect."
In fact, though, the Qur'an is possibly the world's worst-written influential book. Muslims will of course object to this assessment. Their first objection: only an Islamophobe would call the Qur'an badly written. My reply: No, I'm happy to acknowledge the excellence of many Islamic cultural products, for example, the Taj Mahal, calligraphy, Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan's singing, and Muslim Arab folktales. Second objection: The Qur'an is the product of an oral culture. This objection lacks merit. Most people in the world have been illiterate. The Bible is the product of a population where most people could not read or write. Acknowledged masterpieces of world literature, including the Iliad, the Bhagavad Gita, and Zen Koans all emerged from predominantly oral cultures. One Thousand and One Nights, an Arabic-language collection of previously oral folklore, has entranced audiences around the world. Third objection: translations cannot capture the fine qualities of the Arabic Qur'an. I have never read The Iliad in Greek, the Vedas in Sanskrit, Psalm 23 in Hebrew, or Arabic folktales in Arabic, nor do I need to. The excellence and power of these works transcends translation. For those questioning the quality of Robert Spencer's new Qur'an translation, visit this site. You can find any Qur'an verse as translated by six different translators. Study that website all you might; you will not find a translation that can remedy the Qur'an's many problems.
What's wrong with the Qur'an? The Qur'an uses pronouns like "he," "we," and "they," but the Qur'an offers few clues as to whom is meant by these pronouns. The Qur'an hops from topic to topic, not just paragraph by paragraph, but within the same sentence, for example in 4:29: "Do not squander your wealth among yourselves in vanity, except in a trade by mutual consent, and do not kill yourselves." After telling men that they are superior to women and that men should beat their wives (4:34), the Qur'an offers, in 4:36, a sentence fragment, that is a sentence with a subject but no verb. "Kindness to parents." Other translators rescue this fragment by adding the missing verb, e.g.,"Show kindness to parents" or "Do good to parents." Spencer makes so such rescue effort. Qur'an 6:143 is a similar sentence fragment. It reads, "Eight pairs two of the sheep and two of the goats." There is no verb, and, therefore, no sense. Another sentence fragment, this one also missing a verb: "Those who chose unbelievers for their friends instead of believers." Another fragment, 74:30, reads "Above it are nineteen." Above what are nineteen what, exactly? There are more than a few verses that leave the reader scratching her head, e.g., "Would one of you love to eat the flesh of his dead brother?" 49:12, "We used to wade with waders" 74:45, and "Color from Allah, and who is better than Allah at coloring?" 2:138.
Scholar Gerd Puin estimates that twenty percent of the Qur'an is unclear to anyone. This lack of clarity is thanks in part to words, often of non-Arabic derivation, like "jibt," "sijill," "ghislin,""abb," "as-sakhkhah," "sijjin," "illiyyin," "tasnim," "saqar," and many others, whose meanings are uncertain. The full text of a scholarly, 1938 book entitled "The Foreign Vocabulary of the Qur'an" can be found here. The Qur'an acknowledges its own lack of clarity in 3:7, in which Allah states that he alone knows the meaning of some verses. Which verses? He never says. Readers can only guess which verses they are understanding correctly and which verses whose meaning is beyond their grasp.
The books of the Bible are arranged more or less chronologically, with some thematic arrangement, and events in those books are also arranged chronologically. For example in Luke's Gospel, Jesus is first born, then he preaches and heals, then he is crucified, then he rises from the dead. The Qur'an is not arranged chronologically. With the exception of the very short first chapter, the Qur'an's chapters are arranged from longest to shortest. This bizarre choice confounds the reader seeking coherence. Given that chapter length appears entirely arbitrary – the chapters contain more or less the same material, repeated endlessly – why some chapters are long and others are short escapes the reader. Chapter titles do not relate to the theme of the chapter. One of the Qur'an's most notorious verses, "Kill them wherever you find them" is found in the chapter entitled "Women." In any case, the phrase is repeated three times in the Qur'an. Sura 9, perhaps the most bloodthirsty chapter, is titled "Repentance."
That a Qur'an chapter is titled "Women" should not mislead the reader. Women are afterthoughts; they exists as the possessions of men. They appear as child brides, as sex slaves, as Heavenly whores, and as war captives. In verse 43 of "Women," females are identified as a source of pollution. Men should not pray if they have been sick, if they have urinated or defecated, or if they have had contact with a woman. After such contamination, men must cleanse themselves, possibly by rubbing their face and hands with dirt (a practice called Tayammum). Women are inferior to me n (2:282, 2:228, 4:34, 4:11). The Qur'an instructs men on how to handle divorce from pre-pubescent wives with whom they have had sexual intercourse. Females are a "field"that men should enter however they wish. There are dozens of named male characters, but only one named female character: Mary. Compare the Qur'an's lack of named female characters with the indelible females of the Bible, women who changed the course of Jewish and Christian history: Eve, Sarah, Rebecca, Rachel and Leah, Rahab, Deborah, Judith, Ruth, Esther, Elizabeth, Mary Magdalene, the sisters Martha and Mary, Junia, Priscilla, Anna the Prophetess, etc.
The Qur'an chapter entitled "Mary" is, as is the case with other chapter titles, not closely related to Mary. In a commentary on this chapter, Mary is given voice to mourn that she is not "an owned slave woman" – she is unfortunate because she is not some man's property. The Qur'an confuses Mary, mother of Jesus, with Miriam, sister of Moses, who lived over a thousand years before Jesus' mother. The Qur'an tells Mary, "Do not grieve. Your lord has placed a stream beneath you." It's not clear how this stream placement should cheer Mary up.
The Qur'an is repetitious. Repetition is frequently encountered in oral lore. See the Kumulipo, a Hawaiian creation chant.
"Born was Kumulipo in the night, a male
Born was Po'ele in the night, a female
Born was the coral polyp, born was the coral, came forth
Born was the grub that digs and heaps up the earth, came forth…"
This poetic repetition echoes creation itself; the multiplicity of lines with parallel construction reflects the abundance of creatures the chant catalogues, and also their place in an orderly universe. Repetition makes this important lore easy to remember and its has a hypnotic effect on the listener.
The Qur'an makes no such use of repetition. Rather, as Spencer's footnotes show, the Qur'an includes repetitive, garbledf ragments – not coherent retellings – of Jewish and Christian scriptural and folkloric material, and Zoroastrian and Pagan elements. The Qur'an offers repeated, fragmented mentions of the Exodus story from the Bible, and extra-biblical material like a folktale of Jesus making clay birds fly. A sixth-century Christian legend, The Seven Sleepers of Ephesus, tells of seven men who retreated to a cave during Roman persecution. The men awoke two hundred years later and were surprised to find that Christianity was now the empire's official religion. The Qur'an's telling of this tale, found in 18:9-26, is so thoroughly garbled that a reader with no previous knowledge of the Christian source would not have any idea what these verses allude to. Don Richardson, author of "Secrets of the Koran,"estimates that if all repetitions were removed, the Qur'an would be forty percent of its current size.
God's rebuke of David, recounted in 2 Samuel 12, is one of the most moving, terrifying passages in the Bible. I can hardly think of it without crying. Through the prophet Nathan, God rebukes David for murdering Uriah, the husband of Bathsheba, a woman David lusted after. The Qur'an takes this terrifically moving, cinematic passage and flubs it so badly in the retelling that it is a literary crime (38:21-25).
Qur'an 4:157 states that Jesus did not die on the cross. Muslims believe that Allah placed either a dummy or a Jesus lookalike on the cross. Spencer's footnotes identify this belief as an appropriation from a third century Gnostic text, "Second Treatise of the Great Seth." Gnostics were nontrinitarian Christians. As Spencer writes, they held an "abhorrence of the material world and the flesh, which led to their denying altogether the Christian doctrine of the Incarnation." Jesus was too supernatural to suffer death on the cross.
Ex-Muslim Ridvan Aydemir insists that Qur'an 4:157 deals a devastating blow to the Qur'an's integrity. Aydemir argues that, yes, the Gnostics had a reason, that was consistent with their own belief system, to tell a story in which Jesus did not die on the cross. Those compiling the Qur'an borrowed that passage from a Gnostic document, but could not borrow the logic behind the passage. The Jesus of the Qur'an is not, as was the Gnostic Jesus, a supernatural creature, too rarefied to be crucified. The Jesus of the Qur'an is simply a human being, comparable to any other mortal. Aydemir quotes Qur'an passages that mention other prophets being killed; similarly, Jesus, a mere prophet, could have been killed. The Qur'an's logic, that prophets are killed and that Jesus is merely a prophet, as human as anyone else, does not support Jesus' not being killed on the cross. Aydemir points out that the Qur'an borrows other belief system's narratives without borrowing the logic informing those narratives.
The Qur'an has a limited number of themes that it hits upon with a thudding monotony. Those themes include the following. Allah is all powerful. Allah saves and damns arbitrarily. Allah created some people just to send them to hell fire. Muslims must not pray for these damned souls or feel sad for them. Compare this to the Bible, which records that God wants all to be saved (1 Timothy 2:4, 2 Peter 3:9, Ezekiel 18:23) If Muslims don't please Allah, Allah can kill them all and create a new group of people who will please him. In a footnote, Spencer points out that Allah says that he "loves" only those who fight for him in jihad, and he does not love unbelievers. Allah has a very thin skin and grouses about humans who "mock" and "ridicule" his "warners." Allah promises sadistic tortures to scoffers. He will burn off their skins and replace those skins with new skins so that they can be burned off again "so that they may taste the torment" 4:56 He will turn white faces black. Kufar in Hell will consume boiling water, pus, and a fruit made of devils' heads. This fruit will boil in their bellies. "As for those who disbelieve, garments of fire will be cut out for them, boiling fluid will be poured down on their heads, By which what is in their bellies, and their skins too, will be melted, And for them are hooked rods of iron" (22:19-21). The Qur'an's narrator says that those who disagree with him should hang themselves (22:15). Allah promises an afterlife of pleasant gardens, fruits, and silk clothing to Muslim men.Heavenly beings with large, firm – "not sagging" – breasts will service Muslim men.
The Qur'an is ferociously hostile to non-Muslims. The Qur'an directs special fury at Christians and Jews. The very first chapter condemns Jews as having angered God, and Christians as having gone astray. Muslims who pray the full allotment of daily prayers repeat this condemnation of Christians and Jews seventeen times daily. Muslims are as superior to Christians and Jews as human beings are to animals (3:110, 98:6). Jews are so irredeemable that Allah turned them into apes and pigs. In 2:54, Moses tells sinning Jews to kill themselves; Ibn Kathir, a commentator, reports that 70,000 Jews lost their lives as a result of Moses' suicide command.
The Qur'an repeatedly emphasizes that one must not worship anyone but Allah. This point is hammered home in various ways. Don't assign a partner to Allah. Don't pray to anyone but Allah. Don't imply that Allah needs "helpers." All of these phrasings have one target: Christians, and their belief in the Trinity. The Qur'an misunderstands the Trinity, suggesting that Christians worship God the Father, Jesus, and Mary. This is not the Trinity. The Qur'an also drastically misunderstands the purpose of the incarnation. To say that Allah has a son is a "monstrous thing" (19:89) because to do so is to imply that Allah has some weakness or need and his son is a "helper." The incarnation of God as a human being was not so that Allah would have a "helper." Rather, the purpose of the incarnation is expressed succinctly in John 3:16, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life."
No other world scripture is so obsessed with condemnation of two other belief systems, in this case, Judaism and Christianity. Without its condemnations of Jews and Christians, the Qur'an would not be a book-length work, but a pamphlet, .
Jihad is another main theme of the Qur'an. The Qur'an makes abundantly clear that jihad is warfare for the sake of expanding Islam's worldly power, not an interior struggle to, say, remain on a diet, a message promoted by a 2013 CAIR public relationscampaign. The Qur'an says, multiple times, that believers should strike the necks of kufar, kill them wherever the Muslims find them, etc. As if these passages were not grisly enough, a Qur'an commentator offers, "Strike them on their foreheads to tear them apart and over the necks to cut them off, and cut off their limbs, hands and feet." Other commentators are even more bloodthirsty, demanding that Muslims smite the very toes of the kufar.
Muslims should suspect even their wives and their children of being traitors to Allah (64:14). "Among your wives and your children there are enemies for you, therefore beware of them. Your wealth and your children are only a temptation, while with Allah is an immense reward." Other verses warn the believer against ties with parents and children who are not Muslims (9:23-24). Muslims are warned not to take Jews or Christians as friends (3:118, 5:51). Astute readers will, of course, recognize in these warnings the rules set down by cults, who demand that members sever ties with those not members of the cult.
The Qur'an is as remarkable for what it lacks as for what it contains. The Qur'an does not offer that new, world-changing expression of a timeless, soul-deep truth. There is nothing in the Qur'an that compares to the Jewish Ten Commandments, or tzelem Elohim, a loving God who creates humanity in his own image; the Christian Sermon on the Mount; the Hindu Kalidasa's Exhortation of the Dawn; Buddhism's Four Noble Truths; or the Greek Protagoras' observation that "Man is the measure of all things."
In a 2006 lecture at Regensburg University, Pope Benedict quoted a Byzantine emperor, Manuel II Paleologos. "Show me just what Mohammed brought that was new, and there you will find things only evil and inhuman, such as his command to spread by the sword the faith he preached." Mohammad himself is said to have said something similar. In hadiths, Mohammad announced that he was "superior" to other prophets because he alone was made "victorious with terror" and the earth's treasures were made lawful to him; in other words, he could violate the most primordial taboos. He could kill, he could steal, and he could rape other men's wives.
Spencer's new "Critical Qur'an" doesn't offer only an accurate and accessible translation. It offers commentary by canonical Islamic experts, including Ibn Kathir, a fourteenth century exegete, and Syed Abul Ala Maududi, a twentieth-century author. Thus, the reader knows not just what the Qur'an says, but how influential Muslims understand it. Spencer's footnotes also draw the reader's attention to variations in the Qur'an. These variations are of a utmost importance, as it is a tenet of Islam that the Qur'an is a perfect, eternal, unchanging and unchanged document that exists in Heaven. Variations in the text give the lie to this tenet.
Spencer's footnotes relate Qur'anic passages to taqiyya; to Islam's intellectual stasis; to suicide bombing; to Muslims'resistance to Israel's right to exist; to why it is morally acceptable for Muslim men to harass non-Muslim women; to why it takes four Muslim male witnesses to prove a rape case; and to treatment of dhimmis, that is, non-Muslims who live in Muslim states, and who must be economically fleeced and publicly humiliated. As Spencer points out, Qur'an verses, for example 10:94, record that the scriptures of Jews and Christians in the seventh century were authentically divine products. And yet Muslims today insist that Jews and Christians "corrupted"their scriptures. The Qur'an contradicts current Muslim belief about Jewish and Christian scripture. David Wood describes this as the "Islamic Dilemma."
Spencer's footnotes describe Islamic traditions designed to justify changes in the Qur'an, a book that Islam teaches is perfect, unchanging, and unchangeable. Again, one current theory is that the Qur'an was not written as one document, the product of one man, Muhammad. Rather, many scholars now think that the Qur'an was pieced together from pre-existing materials, materials that were then heavily edited to meet the needs of Arab conquerors. These changes occurred over time. Some early Muslims might have witnessed, and questioned, such changes. Traditions were invented to explain away the changes. For example, Muhammad's child bride Aisha is made to say that sheep ate some Qur'an verses that previously existed but then went missing.
Spencer points out the Qur'an's contradictions. Iblis is identified as a jinn, but, contrarily, as an angel. Sometimes one can intercede for another; sometimes one cannot. In one Qur'anic retelling of Exodus, Pharaoh survives. In another, he drowns. The number of days it took Allah to create the world varies, as does the substance from which Allah created mankind. Muslims insist that the Qur'an contains prescient scientific knowledge. In fact, though, as Spencer points out in a footnote, the Qur'an presents a pre-scientific picture of the earth and the solar system 13:2. For example, the heavens rest on "invisible supports" and the sun sets in a muddy pool, 18:86.
Spencer's footnotes also help bridge the gap between the English translation and the Arabic original, pointing out words of non-Arabic origin and places in the text where the rhyme scheme and other formal features break down, indicating interpolations into a pre-existing source document that was then patched into the Qur'an.
An Islamic website offers attractive quotes from the Qur'an. One of the quotes says "speak to people kindly," but this appears in the midst of a text that calls non-believers apes, pigs, and the vilest of created beings, describes graphic tortures for them and tells Muslims never to befriend them, not even if they are parents or children. "Remember me; I will remember you," says one quote. This from an Allah who states repeatedly that if Muslims displease him, he will destroy them utterly and take up a better group of people . "Wives are a garment for you," says one quote. Yet this book includes instructions on how to divorce a pre-pubescent child; before dumping her, one must make sure that she has not somehow gotten pregnant. "Allah does not burden a soul more than he can bear," says another quote. This same Allah repeatedly says that he creates people for the specific purpose of sending them to Hell, a Hell he describes with fiendish enthusiasm. "The life of this world is only the enjoyment of deception." And yet Paradise is utterly earthbound. It's all about rivers of booze, delicious food, silk garments, and sex slaves with round, "not sagging" breasts. The only thing that's missing is big-screen color TVs. There is no description of what Heaven will entail for women. "Men are in charge of women" are superior to women, and should beat them, says 4:34. But this website translates that verse as saying that men should protect women.
Compare this to the matrix of Bible quotes. Hosea, a prophet, married Gomer, an adulteress. Even though she cheated on him, Hosea could not quit her. Their story reflects God's love for the Jewish people. When the ancient Hebrews went astray, God could not get over his love for them. In the book of Hosea, God speaks of his frustrated love, "I drew them with human cords, with bands of love; I fostered them like one who raises an infant to his cheeks; Yet, though I stooped to feed my child, they did not know that I was their healer." God's frustrated love for sinning humanity is also expressed in the New Testament which records, Christians believe, the son of God dying a torturous death for his love of humanity. In the extreme of pain, Jesus says, "Father, forgive them. They know not what they do."These quotes are deeply embedded in rich narratives that demonstrate the truths the quotes hope to convey. Compare this to the Qur'an that mentions "kindness to parents" just a few words away from the advice to husbands to beat their wives. Both quotes are completely free of any supportive, illustrative narrative.
Please buy and read Robert Spencer's "Critical Qur'an." I emphasize "buy" because his book is a gift to thinking people, and "the workman is worthy of his hire." The most moving sentence in this translation was written by Spencer himself. He dedicates his book thus, "Offered with love to all the people of the world who love the Qur'an." I do not see how anyone could read this book, and all of its footnotes, and conclude that the Qur'an is divinely inspired. Muslims deserve to have access to the research presented so very clearly herein.
JOE BIDEN, A SOCIOPATH, WILL ALWAYS BE ON THE OTHER SIDE.
Joe shipped billions of dollars of our war material to Ukraine -- which coincidentally was another multi-million-dollar benefactor of the Biden family. While he armed Ukraine, our own military has fallen to its lowest level of preparedness since before WWII. But our soldiers do get their pronouns correct now.
Joe funded Hamas, using Iran as a financial cutout. Hamas then committed the single largest one-day killing of Jews since the Holocaust. Hamas’ Bidenbucks facilitated murder, gang rape, kidnapping, and infanticide. While the world watched in horror, Joe went on another beach vacation.
BIDEN'S CORRUPT REGIME IS ONLY GEARED TO PROTECT JOE AND THE BIDEN CRIME FAMILY OF PARASITE LAWYERS. AFTER THAT, IT'S OPEN BORDERS FOR 15 MILLION NEW ILLEGALS WITH THOUSANDS MORE JUMPING THE BORDER DAILY.
FBI warns of terrorist ‘threats’...and that’s about it
You have to love it when someone reassures you of some threat, then says he’ll do something about it...and never does.
And by love it, I mean absolutely loathe it.
That’s exactly the position that the DHS and the FBI have put themselves in. They’ve warned Americans that there could be some kind of terror threat due to the ongoing Israel/Hamas war, and said they would be monitoring the situation, but they’re doing little else to actually secure our borders or keep our street safe.
“But we got your back, guys!” Sure.
In a statement made a little while back, the FBI and the Department of Homeland Security announced potential “heightened” threats to public safety this holiday season, believing there are some extremists out there in the United States who could do harm due to what’s happening with the war.
“We take all potential threats seriously and will work closely with our law enforcement partners to determine their credibility, share information, and take appropriate action,” the bureau noted.
That’s great. But...is that enough?
Over the last few months, I’ve seen a disturbing trend that’s still going on, and while the FBI and DHS insist that the matter’s in good hands, I’m not so sure.
That’s because, over the past few months, neither department has really done anything in terms of securing our borders. There hasn’t been any talk about hiring additional Border Patrol agents to keep migrants out, nor has there been any discussion — aside from a quick promise by President Joe Biden — about fortifying it.
Not only that, but Biden has flat-out refused to visit the border in any capacity to see what’s going on firsthand. His administration has also gone as far as to condemn the Republicans who actually cared enough to go down there and seeing what was going on, dismissing them as political stunts.
You’re kidding me, right? Instead of actually seeing what’s wrong with your country through your own eyes, you’re instead assuming everything’s okay and quickly dismissing the opinions of those that have actually seen it? Sure, Joe.
Let’s move on. Several cities have been ransacked by criminal activity over the past few months. Portland isn’t what it used to be; several businesses in San Francisco have closed; and don’t even get me started on the mess that’s taking place in New York City, with thousands of officers leaving their post.
And yet there simply isn’t any effort from ol’ Joe to hire new officers. He promised long ago that he would “fund the police,” but there hasn’t been any sort of bill to provide them the much-needed funds that were yanked away years ago with the debacle that was the “defund the police” campaign. He supports them, sure, but only so far. Actual effort just can’t be provided.
That makes this whole thing ironic. The DHS and the FBI warn of “threats to public safety” but won’t lift a finger. It’s up to the officers still on our streets to keep people safe — the men and women who are often ridiculed for simply wearing a badge when, in truth, they are the greatest defense this country has right now.
With that, I offer a hearty “happy holidays” message to our men and women in blue. They deserve it, having been through so much over the years and still getting little to no support from those government types who should be treating them better — especially in Boston, where all hell appears to be breaking loose, and a select few, who could resolve the matter, choose to do anything but.
I hope 2024 brings some much-needed changes, because, honestly, it’s about time we did something to stop these threats to the United States, instead of simply saying we will. Let’s keep the promises that are made, rather than just throw them out there for that public exposure.
Have a great holiday season, all!

In the aftermath of Hamas's Oct. 7 terror attack against Israel, left-wing nonprofit Climate Justice Alliance expressed "unwavering solidarity with the Palestinian freedom struggle" and blamed the attack on Israeli "settler-colonialism." Now, the Biden administration is entrusting the group to distribute $50 million in taxpayer funds.
President Joe Biden's Environmental Protection Agency announced the move in a Wednesday press release, which named Climate Justice Alliance as one of several "national grantmakers" tasked with doling out $50 million to local organizations in the name of "environmental justice." In order to receive the taxpayer funds, those organizations will primarily work with the alliance, not the Biden administration. As a "grantmaker," the left-wing nonprofit is tasked with awarding "subgrants"—which range from $150,000 to $350,000 each—and implementing "tracking and reporting systems."
The decision raises questions as to how Biden's EPA landed on Climate Justice Alliance for the program, given that the group has publicly condemned the administration over its support for the Jewish state. Climate Justice Alliance, a network of nearly 90 left-wing environmental groups from across the country, issued an Oct. 20 statement accusing Biden of using "US taxpayer dollars … to support a policy of genocide."
"With this newest round of genocidal attacks by Israel on the civilian population … the Israel government has defied international law," the group said. "President Biden must oppose this."
In addition to its criticism of Biden over the Democrat's handling of the war, Climate Justice Alliance has worked to justify Hamas's terror attack on the Jewish state.
The "Free Palestine" section of the group's website includes a statement from its sister organization, It Takes Roots, which calls the attack "the most recent escalation in the 75-year history of settler-colonialism and violence across historic Palestine" and expresses "unwavering solidarity with the Palestinian freedom struggle for self-determination and to live freely with their human rights fully intact on their lands."
Climate Justice Alliance has also made clear that it cannot separate its environmental activism from the Palestinian cause. One week ago, the group released a video titled, "The path to climate justice travels through a free Palestine," which "uses an anti-colonial framework to show how Climate Justice and the liberation of Palestine are connected."
"Our hope in creating this new resource is to mobilize additional sectors of the climate movement for the fight to free Palestine," the group said, "and to begin to shift the politics of the mainstream climate movement from carbon fundamentalism to climate justice."
In some cases, groups affiliated with the alliance have broken the law to express their contempt for Israel. One of the group's members, the Grassroots Global Justice Alliance, has helped organize illegal anti-Israel protests in the Capitol rotunda and other Capitol complex buildings.
Neither the EPA nor Climate Justice Alliance responded to requests for comment. Vice President Kamala Harris in the EPA's Wednesday press release said the money to Climate Justice Alliance and other groups would "put equity at the center of our nation's largest investment in climate history."
The EPA program that enlists Climate Justice Alliance to distribute taxpayer-funded "subgrants" is called the Environmental Justice Thriving Communities Grantmaking program and is funded through Biden's Inflation Reduction Act. As part of the program, Climate Justice Alliance and 10 other groups will receive $50 million in taxpayer funds that they will then distribute to "community-based nonprofit organizations and other eligible organizations representing disadvantaged communities."
Climate Justice Alliance has significant control over that money. The EPA's press release notes that the group and other "grantmakers" are in charge of designing their own "comprehensive application and submission processes" before they "award environmental justice subgrants, implement tracking and reporting systems, and provide resources and support to communities."
Judge Glock, senior fellow and director of research at the Manhattan Institute, said that while the federal government "does occasionally select grantees to send out subawards," the EPA's new environmental justice program is unique given its "size and the incredible level of discretion given to the grantees to make subawards."
"Something that is on multiple levels an incredibly broad, general program with not very clear goals, and then to designate these grantmakers to make their own grants with even less clear goals, I certainly haven't seen anything like this before," Glock told the Washington Free Beacon. "And it's a lot of money—it's not a little amount of money, and they're going to some pretty extreme groups."
In addition to its anti-Israel activism, Climate Justice Alliance is a staunch supporter of the "Green New Deal movement," which it says stems from "decades of Indigenous/frontline wisdom." The group also touts its efforts to lead a "just transition" toward green energy and away from "the profit-driven industrial economy rooted in patriarchy and white supremacy."
Climate Justice Alliance announced its participation in the EPA program in a Wednesday statement, saying it is "excited and ready to serve as a bridge, model, and catalyst among organizations nationwide to … strengthen the environmental justice movement."
"We look forward to ensuring that thousands of $150,000 to $350,000 EPA grants move to marginalized, environmental justice communities to address historic harms," said Jacqueline Patterson, founder of the Chisholm Legacy Project, a Climate Justice Alliance member.
In 2019, Yousra Fazili addressed a congressional hearing to complain about the arrest of her cousin by Indian authorities. The woman who now serves as Chief of Staff for the Pentagon Comptroller claimed that her cousin was the innocent victim of oppressive Indian authorities.
According to the daughter of Kashmiri Muslim immigrants, her cousin Mubeen Shah had been arrested under India’s Public Safety Act even though he was “not a politician or a dissident, he isn’t a freedom fighter, or even a kid in the street throwing stones. He’s just a businessman. His life’s work has focused on bringing economic opportunity to Kashmir.”
In reality, as the Hindu Post noted, Shah had “lionized Kashmiri jihadists, agreed with a description of convicted terrorists as ‘inspirations for the youth,’ and promised that ‘we all are ready to spill our blood’” to keep the region Muslim. On Facebook, Shah appeared to have posted a picture describing Mohammad Afzal Guru, an Islamic terrorist tied to the ‘The Army of Muhammad’, which is affiliated with Al Qaeda, as the “Pride of Kashmir”. Guru had been executed for his role in a December 2001 attack on the Indian parliament.
Fortunately for Shah, he had his Fazili family deeply embedded in America’s political establishment. Yousra’s sister, Sameera Fazili had been brought in as a senior policy advisor to Obama’s National Economic Council. And when Biden took office, she became the deputy assistant to the president and the deputy director of the National Economic Council.
When Shah was arrested, Sameera and Yousra Fazili “dialed friends in the State Department” and the State Department demanded information about him from the Indian government. Rep. Pramila Jayapal, a radical leftist sympathetic to Islamic terrorists, agitated for his release.
Soon Shah was out and Yousra Fazili was in, joining her sister in a high-level position in the Biden administration. Where Sameera had worked on the economic side of things, Yousra became the Special Assistant to the Assistant Secretary of Defense for Nuclear, Chemical and Biological Defense Programs three years after agitating on behalf of a terrorist supporter.
It was incredible even by the standards of an administration that seemed to have abandoned even the most elementary forms of background checks and security screenings.
But before long, Yousra Fazili appeared to be providing materials on Islam to federal contractors like Booz Allen Hamilton and then to the Defense Intelligence Agency. She made the leap to the Department of Defense, first serving as the Special Assistant to the Assistant Secretary of Defense for Nuclear, Chemical and Biological Defense Programs and now serves as the Chief of Staff to the Comptroller and Chief Financial Officer of the Pentagon.
But before that she was working for the state sponsor of Hamas.
Rep. Jack Bergman, a retired Marine Corps lieutenant general, wrote a letter to Secretary of Defense Austin, expressing his concern “about the security clearances and responsibilities entrusted to Yousra Fazili, the Chief of Staff for the Comptroller and Chief Financial Officer of the Pentagon” due to her past work as “‘strategic’ advisor to Meshal Al-Thani, the Qatari Ambassador to the U.S., for over three years.”
Qatar is a close ally of Iran, hosts Hamas leaders and has ties to Islamic terrorist groups all over the world. Reports link the Qatari royal family to Al Qaeda. The Islamic terror state harbored 9/11 mastermind Khalid Sheikh Mohammed who escaped when Qatari officials allegedly tipped him off and he left on a “a specially equipped government executive jet, complete with blacked-out windows.”
Furthermore, as Rep. Bergman points out, Qatar was engaged in covert hostilities against the United States. Fazili worked for the “Qatari Ambassador at the time that her client was targeting prominent Americans in an effort to silence Qatar’s critics, including the then-Chairman of the House Foreign Affairs Committee, Ed Royce, and the former acting head of the Central Intelligence Agency, Michael Morell.”
How does someone go from working for an ally of Iran and Hamas to a prominent position at the Pentagon in a matter of years?
The failure by the Biden administration and the Pentagon to perform even the most elementary vetting of Yousra Fazili is a massive national security failure. Yousra Fazili had testified on behalf of her cousin, while lying about his support for Islamic terrorists, and had publicly supported Islamic terrorists linked to Al Qaeda. The efforts by the Fazili sisters to rally support for him in the State Department should have made that public knowledge in D.C.
Yousra’s sister Sameera, despite her role in the Obama and the Biden administrations, also had a troubling past with extremist groups.
When Biden brought her into the National Economic Council, it was revealed that Sameera was a member of Stand With Kashmir (SWK) “which was founded by her cousin, Hafsa Kanjwal” and which had “praised and defended the actions of a number of violent Islamists” including Asiya Andrabi who had “met with Al Qaeda officials and told them that if ‘you belong to Sheikh Osama’s Al-Qaeda then you are very welcome because he was a legitimate leader of Jihad.’”
Her cousin, Hafsa Kanjwal appeared at a pro-Hamas rally and at foreign conference led by a former Palestinian Islamic Jihad board member, and called for Muslims operating in America to “put a check on American exceptionalism.” Finally she’s an instructor at The People’s Forum: an organization funded by a Chinese Communist based operation whose offices face a “red banner that reads, in Chinese, ‘Always Follow the Party’ and a “plate depicting Xi.”
How exactly does someone a few degrees of separation from Al Qaeda go on to serve as Chief of Staff for the Pentagon Comptroller?
The exposure of Yousra Fazili comes only a few weeks after it was revealed that Ariane Tabatabai, the Chief of Staff to the Assistant Secretary of Defense for Special Operations and Low Intensity Conflict, had worked with an operation set up by the Iranian government and coordinated her congressional testimony with them. Despite published emails between Tabatabai and Iran, the Pentagon allowed her to keep her position and her security clearance.
“We have confirmed that Ms. Tabatabai’s employment and clearance processes were carried out in accordance with all appropriate laws and policies,” a Department of Defense official replied to Sen. Joni Ernst.
Two Muslim Pentagon Chiefs of Staff were shown to have worked with enemy nations. And the Defense Department and the Biden administration has chosen to keep them on the job.
When associates and employees of enemy governments that are tied to Islamic terrorism can waltz in and take high-ranking positions in the Department of Defense, national security no longer means anything. The Pentagon has been infiltrated by political hires who would have been disqualified from even being considered twenty years ago on the basis of their associations, their views and their links to enemy governments.
Now Iran and Qatar can plant their employees and catspaws at key positions throughout the Pentagon. And we wonder why our intelligence and our operations are so badly compromised.

Several Suspected Islamists Arrested over Christmas Terror Attack Plot on Cologne Cathedral
Several suspected Islamist terrorists have been arrested in Germany and Austria over alleged planned attacks during the Christmas holiday season including at the Cologne Cathedral, which was searched by police with explosive-sniffing dogs on Saturday evening.
According to a report from Bild, Germany’s largest-circulation newspaper, police have arrested several suspected terrorists said to be from Tajikstan and who allegedly planned to carry out terror attacks in Europe on Christmas or New Year’s Eve. The suspected Islamist terrorists are believed to have connections to the “Islamic State in Khorasan Province” an offshoot of ISIS primarily located in Afghanistan.
One of the chief targets of the seemingly foiled terror attack was the 13th-century Cologne Cathedral, Germany’s most-visited tourist attraction. On Saturday evening, police searched the historic site with bomb-detecting dogs to ensure that no explosives had already been hidden in the cathedral.
23 December 2023, North Rhine-Westphalia, Cologne: The still image from a video shows a police sniffer dog on duty at the cathedral.

A Cologne Police spokesman said: “Due to a warning of danger for Cologne Cathedral, the Cologne police will take special protective measures from this evening. The police will not comment on details of the available findings due to ongoing investigations by the police state security service.”
Even despite the arrests, security measures will be stepped up over the next week, with all visitors to the cathedral set to be screened before being permitted to enter the building.
Cologne Police Chief Michael Esser said: “Even if the reference refers to New Year’s Eve, we will take everything into account this evening to ensure the safety of cathedral visitors on Christmas Eve. In coordination with the security officer of the cathedral chapter, the cathedral is searched with sniffer dogs after the evening mass and then locked. Tomorrow all visitors will be screened before entering the church.”
In addition to standing as one of Germany’s top historical landmarks, the Cologne Cathedral was also the epicentre of the infamous sex attacks on New Year’s Eve in 2015, which was brought to international attention by reporting from Breitbart London. Over a thousand women in Cologne claimed to have been sexually assaulted, with the majority describing their attackers as appearing to be of North African or foreign descent.
On top of the alleged plot in Cologne, other targets for the suspected Islamist terrorists included locations in Madrid, Spain and Vienna, Austria where several of the arrests on Saturday were made.
“Due to a current threat assessment by the Office for the Protection of the Constitution and the continued increased terror alert level, there is generally an increased risk in Austria during the Christmas holidays,” a Vienna Police spokesman said.
The arrests come after multiple terror attacks across Europe in the wake of the October 7th Hamas terror attack on Israel, with Islamist jihadis killing multiple people in Belgium and France. Earlier this month, the European Union warned that because of the war between Israel and Hamas, there was a “huge risk” of Islamist terror attacks in Europe during the Christmas holiday season.
Other Tajik members of the “Islamic State in Khorasan Province” terror group were arrested in Germany and the Netherlands over the Summer over an alleged plot to carry out a major terror attack. The seven-member group had reportedly smuggled into Germany after posing as refugees from Ukraine with fake documents.

The 18th-century epigrammatist and aphorist Nicolas Chamfort famously described his country, France, as “the perfected civilization.” Nowadays, the nearly six million Muslim economic migrants and their children in France have contributed much to the undoing of that civilization, spreading fear and insecurity. From the annals of Muslim mayhem, carried out against French people, here is one recent story: “‘Dirty White’ – Thugs stab young French father 9 times, leave him with 40 stitches,” by John Cody, Remix News, December 15, 2023:
A young French father was stabbed by four to five perpetrators nine times and had a bottle broken over his head, with the men screaming “dirty White” and other racist remarks during the attack.
The victim, Nicolas, was at Le Victoria bar in Moselle on Dec. 9 when he went to the bathroom. During that time, someone told Nicolas, “You pushed me,” to which Nicolas, even though he believed he had not done anything, simply apologized to the man. Immediately, one of the perpetrators pulled out a knife. Nicolas responded by hitting him, but another one of the man’s friends pushed Nicolas to the ground. Others then joined in to attack him.
Clearly the accusation “you pushed me” was false, an excuse for the Muslims to attack him as they ignored his apology, which in any case was not merited, and to do so as a gang of four or five against one. These are the odds that Muslims prefer when attacking Infidels.
Nicolas was beaten and stabbed multiple times. He told the police that during the attack, the men yelled, “Dirty White,” and said, “Hit him, the gwer (an Arabic slur for White people.)”
The men continued to beat and stab him while he was on the ground.
His girlfriend, Meggy, spoke with French newspaper Lorraine Actu and related some of the details of the case to the paper.
Finally, “with two friends, they went through an emergency exit; they were able to take the car, and they went to Mercy Hospital,” added the young woman. Nicolas received 40 stitches, including for nine stab wounds.
“They broke a bottle of alcohol over his head and (doctors) had to put 15 stitches there,” said Meggy….
When contacted, the manager of the bar stated he did not want to comment on the case, while wishing Nicolas a good recovery and regretting what had happened.
These assailants were Arabs speaking in Arabic about hitting the “gwer” — the Arabic pejorative for white people. This was no ordinary assault, but a hate crime — the hate Muslims are taught to feel for non-Muslims, “the most vile of created beings.” They started the attack by falsely accusing the Frenchman of “hitting” one of them, and despite his apology — for something he had not done — these four or five assailants smashed a bottle over his head, and knocked him to the ground, where they continued to beat and to stab him nine times. By pure luck he survived. The attack is similar to others that in recent years have been reported from across France, where gangs of Muslims assault Infidels, often not even to rob, but just to enjoy the fun of beating up or stabbing a “gwer.”
All over the country, wherever Muslims in sufficient numbers are to be found, there has been a steady rise in the physical insecurity of the French. In cities, women no longer go out alone in the evening, for fear of sexual assault and rape. Jewish men now remove their kippahs, and Jewish women the Stars of David on their necklaces, before going out. The sense of security and wellbeing steadily erodes among non-Muslims across the country. And many people, though horrified, don’t want to get involved. Note that in this case, the owner of the bar had no comment on the incident, so fearful was he of possible retribution by the Muslim malefactors or by their families and friends. And it appears that the bar staff did not call the gendarmes nor the firemen to come, as Nicolas had requested, for the same pusillanimous reasons — “we don’t want to get involved.”
This is not a story that has received much attention in France — and none outside France. It’s by now such a common tale — a Muslim gang attacking a French person — that it is widely covered only when a gang-rape or a murder is involved. Smashing a bottle on someone French person’s head, and then stabbing him nine times just isn’t enough, these days, to attract much attention in the media. That’s how far along the we have come, from the Perfected Civilisation of Chamfort to the routine mayhem and attempted murder that the Muslim migrants have brought as their hideous gift to their French hosts. If this keeps up, expect that the French, having had quite enough of this barbarism, will respond in kind to their Muslim guests.
Already some retired French military men have warned of “civil war.” It must not come to this. The French, instead, must take control of their demographic destiny, calling a halt to Muslim immigration, and making life distinctly more difficult for Muslim economic migrants already in the country. That can be achieved by a law that would deny all state benefits to migrants during their first five years of residence in France Such a law should cause quite an outflow of those economic migrants, almost all of them Muslims from the Maghreb, who have been costing the French government billions of dollars a year. Not any more.

Statistics show that 91% of terrorist attacks that occurs in Europeans countries are Islamic.
The sad and tragic reality of jihad-minded Muslims migrants who live in the France and the other nations of continental Europe who engage in Islamic suicide/homicide bombings attacks is for a large part, the outcome the extreme brainwashing that is performed in Islamic mind programming centers, which are mosques and madrasas.
In those jihad mind control places students are thoroughly indoctrinated into the jihadist mindset of committing murderous bombing attacks in the jihad for the advancement of Islam. As Islam’s “holy book,” the Quran instructs in 9:111. , for example, “The believers fight in Allah’s Cause, they slay and are slain they kill and are killed.” Therefore, those who come out of those Quran based mind programming centers .mosque and madrasas, are so terribly harmed and damaged that they are literally, as it has be rightfully called, “dangerous to self and others.” This results in jihad suicide /homicide attack in which those jihadists who commit such murderous actions are so very deluded that they think of that jihad mass murders as “martyrdom operations.” This is Islamic delusion of the most heinous and malicious kind.
This may be, somewhat, explained by the narrative from the fable of Aesop which is entitled THE SCORPION AND THE FROG So “Once upon a time there was a scorpion who really wanted to get to the other side of the river, but he could not swim. Therefore, the scorpion begged a frog to carry him on his back across the river. The kind but foolish frog agreed and then half-way across the river the scorpion stung the frog. In shock and horror the dying frog asks the scorpion “Why did you sting me since this means that we both are going to die” The scorpion replied “The reason that I stung you even though we both will now die is because that just what a scorpion, by nature, does.”
In conclusion, just as that scorpion in the fable had proven himself by the dangerous and deadly, to self and others, because of his nature. The violent and murderous jihadists of Islam are as that scorpion, dangerous so self and other because they is their nature because they have been thought programmed in the ways of the violent and murdering jihad of Islam. As always stated above ,this is the sad and tragic reality of Islamic terrorism in today’s world.
Khan’s London: 43 Knife Crime Incidents Recorded Per Day Amid Gang Violence Surge in British Capital
Gang violence in London has seen knife crime reportedly surge at its fastest rate in five years, with over 40 incidents logged with police per day, according to an analysis conducted by a top British broadsheet.
A report from The Telegraph newspaper has claimed that over 200 gangs are operating in the British capital, with around 46,000 members at their disposal, some of whom are as young as ten years old.
The prevalence of criminal gangs and inevitable turf wars and other disputes have contributed to increasing violence on the streets of London, with knife crime rising at its quickest pace in five years and gun crime rising by six per cent over last year. So far this year, there have been over 90 homicides recorded in the city, 20 of whom were minors.
The paper revealed that the Metropolitan Police are currently receiving an average of 43 reports of knife crime incidents every single day.
It comes amid a bloody Christmas holiday period in London, with a 49-year-old man being stabbed to death in Hackney in the early hours of Tuesday morning. Four men have been arrested in connection to the killing. Separately, a 16-year-old has been arrested after a 22-year-old woman was stabbed to death in Bermondsey on Christmas Eve.
An officer who serves on the Met’s murder investigation unit said: “It really does feel like things are getting out of control… The volume and the ferocity of the violence that we are seeing is off the charts. I have been on the job for almost 25 years and I have never known it as bad as this.
“Ultimately it is all about money, but violence can explode for the smallest of reasons and before you know it you have gang members, many of them very young, carrying out tit-for-tat attacks. Drill music and the use of social media have made things so much worse. You have online squabbles that escalate so quickly into violence.”
Knife crime and gang violence is set to be a major political issue in next year’s London mayoral election, in which leftist Mayor Sadiq Khan is seeking a historic third term in office.
Khan’s opponent, Conservative Assembly Member Susan Hall said: “Crime has absolutely spiralled since Sadiq Khan came in but there are also structural issues within the Met that need addressing.
“For the police to get on top of this problem we need to have proper neighbourhood teams embedded in the community. Far too often these officers are being abstracted from their neighbourhood role and dragged onto response teams to fill gaps there.”
While Hall has laid out plans to increase the effectiveness of the police, she argued that the problem is a broader issue within society, saying: “How have we got to this situation where kids are running through the streets with machetes? It’s an absolute disgrace. The most difficult job in the world is to be a parent, but it is also the most rewarding. You have to teach your kids right from wrong.”
During Khan’s reign in London, there has been a sharp increase in knife crime, with 9,086 knife-related offences being recorded in London during the year leading up to March of 2016 before he came to power, compared to 12,786 knife crimes during the same period in 2023, representing a 40 per cent increase since Khan took office.
