For 25 years, American counterterrorism policy has been organized around the image of September 11: a terror cell, an aircraft, an explosion. Billions went into intelligence, airport screening and wars abroad. Across those same years, a slower project advanced through channels that no security agency was built to monitor: one moving through universities, lobbying organizations, municipal, state and national politics, and the vocabulary of civil rights. It required nothing more explosive than money, patience and a working knowledge of how an open society such as the United States functions.

London schoolgirl who recruited Shamima Begum for Isis is found alive and may face death penalty over Berlin terror attack
The British jihadi bride who recruited Shamima Begum into ISIS has been arrested in Syria after being linked to a terror attack in Germany, The Mail on Sunday can reveal.
Sharmeena Begum, now 27, who left her east London home for Syria as a schoolgirl in December 2014, was traced after German police investigating July’s Berlin Pride attack found she had exchanged messages with knife-man Abdul Ballout.
He is understood to have sent Sharmeena – no relation to her former schoolmate Shamima – a video of himself swearing his oath of allegiance to ISIS, which she was allegedly meant to pass to the group’s propaganda chief for release online after the attack.
Muslims Support Terrorism and That’s a Good Thing
“Muslim friends and citizens, tax-paying citizens, and Muslims in nations were just appalled and could not believe what we saw on our TV screens. These acts of violence against innocents violate the fundamental tenets of the Islamic faith. And it’s important for my fellow Americans to understand that,” President George W. Bush had claimed in remarks at a mosque after 9/11 while accompanied by terror-linked Islamists. “The face of terror is not the true faith of Islam. That’s not what Islam is all about. Islam is peace. These terrorists don’t represent peace.”
German Priest Calls Islam ‘Alternative Christianity’, Muslims ‘Younger Siblings’ on 9/11
German Catholic priest and theology professor has drawn heavy criticism after describing Islam as an ‘alternative form of Christianity’ and dismissing concerns about the Islamization of Germany. His argument, published on the anniversary of the September 11 terrorist attacks, is considered by many to be an attempt to minimize fundamental differences between the two religions while ignoring the threats that political Islam poses to Western civilization.
The author of the controversial piece is Oliver Wintzek, professor of dogmatics and fundamental theology at the Catholic University of Applied Sciences in Mainz and a priest at the Jesuit church in Mannheim.
Why Texas is at war with Islam
As the Global War on Terror got underway at the turn of the 21st century, then-President George W. Bush sharply distinguished Islam and Islamism. Islam, in this telling, was a global faith counting more than a billion adherents, including a few million in America, the overwhelming majority of them peaceful and loyal. Islamism was the noxious ideology that inspired 9/11 and numerous other attacks of the kind. Islam meant “peace,” as Bush insisted. Islamism meant war and terror.
In the years that followed, a few cultural flashpoints brought Islam’s place in America into public contestation. Even so, Bush’s distinction more or less held. But not anymore. Today, politicians and activists from his home state of Texas are promulgating school curricula that underscore the violent dimensions of Islam, mounting fierce opposition to new mosque proposals, and objecting to recent demographic changes in overtly racial and religious terms.

ISIS terror suspect arrested in Montreal was in Canada illegally: RCMP
A man arrested in Montreal after he allegedly planned a terrorist attack on behalf of the Islamic State was in the country illegally, according to police.
Louay Angoud “has no legal status in Canada,” the Royal Canadian Mounted Police told The Gazette.
Angoud was arrested Wednesday at Place Ville Marie by the RCMP and faces three terrorism charges in relation to a planned attack with a chemical weapon.
‘We Want Islam For This Country’: Muslims In Texas Lay Out Vision For Islamic America
Shaykh Uthman ibn Farooq laid out a vision for an Islamic America during a livestreamed event at the Sufaraa Center in McKinney, Texas, last week. Authentic Ilm Mission, which hosted the event, has plans for a 40,000-square-foot facility near Plano, Texas, and used the livestream featuring Farooq to fundraise for the multipurpose school and Islamic community center.
“We love this country,” Farooq said. “We want good for this country. And that’s why we want Islam for this country, ’cause we think that’s the best thing. And we’re not going to be ashamed of that.”
Muslims Caught Transporting Kidnapped Teens Across US-Canadian Border
There’s been a great deal of focus on our border with Mexico, less so on the Canadian border, in part because of the sheer size of it and also because it hasn’t been as ‘hot’. But many of the incidents that we’ve had on the border have involved Muslims including two plots, one of which targeted LAX airport, and there seems to be a growing number of cases of Muslims transporting kidnapped teens across the border.

The Muslim Brotherhood’s Campaign to Islamize Canada
The Muslim Brotherhood’s Islamist architecture in Canada is manifested in an interlocking network of student organizations, advocacy groups, and charitable entities, which create permission structures for the normalization of anti-Western sentiment, extremism, terrorism, and antisemitism. The success of this ideologically driven campaign to alter Canadian values and torque Canadian institutions has been broadly visible since Oct. 7, 2023, and can be measured concretely in street demonstrations and in violence directed against Jews, both of which have been driven by the mobilization networks, the Institute for the Study of Global Antisemitism and Policy documented in a report published last month. The larger political effects of these campaigns can also be seen in the changes in government policy as the Liberal Party has embraced the concrete policy demands of a constituency that is organized to infiltrate institutional structures and apply political pressure using the rules of Canadian democracy to support anti-liberal values and undemocratic political actors.
This is not news, and that makes it all the more depressing.
Islamist entryism is aided by our political class.
They actively cultivate the MB and Muslims in general for their votes.
Infamously Carney informed us that Muslim values are Canadian values.
Canada is being eaten alive.
Jailed hate preacher Abu Hamza’s £1.7million London home ‘gets £70,000 taxpayer-funded facelift’

hat self-defense teaches us about recognizing ideological threats before they become impossible to ignore.
When I teach self-defense, I explain that the attacker has an enormous advantage before the first punch is thrown. He knows his intentions, has selected his target, and has already decided what he’s prepared to do. His victim may still be trying to understand what’s happening.
The attacker is already acting while the defender is only beginning to observe.
Run Hide Fight: Infidels
Where would Hollywood be without the Nazis of World War II to serve as their go-to villains? Countless great movies have centered on the heroes of freedom combatting the epic evil of Adolf Hitler and his henchmen. Nazis are also the safest target – no one is offended by their casting as a film’s bad guys; everyone roots for the protagonist against them.
