Biden’s handlers unveil program to fight ‘white supremacy’ in military and ‘purge’ Internet of ‘extremist content’
“Purge” is well chosen, because that’s exactly what this is, a nakedly political purge of the loyal opposition, and the forcible silencing of political dissent in America. It’s plain as day what is coming. What is not clear is whether or not there will be any significant number of Americans who stand for freedom and […]

ADL’s ‘Brief History on Antisemitism’ focuses on Christians, avoids ongoing jihad

France: Interior Minister says ‘French Muslims are the first to fall victim to Islamists’
It would be interesting to see how Darmanin distinguishes Islamism from Islam, and explains how the latter has ever existed without its political and supremacist manifestations, but it is unlikely that he does so, or will be asked to do so. Jihadis justify violence and make recruits among peaceful Muslims by claiming to be the […]

Usman Khan is now on record as having fooled prison chaplain Paul Foster and counterterror top dog Steve Machin. It was easy. Both were so eager to believe in the myth of deradicalization.
