In a sane political environment, this would have passed as a decidedly unremarkable, albeit not quite one-hundred-percent accurate, observation. The U.S. Director of National Intelligence, Tulsi Gabbard, recently warned that “radical Islamist terrorism” is the biggest national security threat the nation faces today.
Well, of course. The top terror groups worldwide are all Islamic. On September 11, 2001, Islamic jihadis carried out the largest-ever terror attack on American soil. Numerous other Islamic jihad attacks have taken place in the U.S., at Fort Hood, the Boston Marathon, San Bernardino, New Orleans, and numerous other places. The Biden regime caught numerous people on the terror watch list crossing into the U.S. from Mexico, and released at least 99 of them into the country. Gabbard was therefore making an entirely reasonable assessment.
Gabbard said: “We look at the past four years of open borders, where we had tens of millions of people coming across our borders, many of whom we don’t know who they are or what their intentions are, very specifically the threat of radical Islamist terrorism here within our country is higher than it’s ever been before, not only because of Biden’s open borders, but because of his and his administration’s fear of being called Islamophobes.”
For Gabbard to speak of “radical Islamist terrorism” was not quite accurate, as there is nothing “radical” about Islamic jihad violence. It is mainstream and deeply rooted in the Qur’an and Sunnah. And “Islamist” is a phony word that corresponds to nothing in Islamic theology. It is just an attempt to distance Islam from the crimes done in its name and in accord with its teachings.
Nevertheless, her statement was a tremendous improvement over the Biden regime. FBI director Christopher Wray testified before members of the Senate Judiciary Committee in March 2021, saying: “The top threat we face from [domestic violent extremists] continues to be those we identify as Racially or Ethnically Motivated Violent Extremists (RMVEs), specifically those who advocate for the superiority of the white race.”
Old Joe Biden then said it during his speech to a Joint Session of Congress in April 2021: “we won’t ignore what our own intelligence agencies have determined – the most lethal terrorist threat to the homeland today is from white supremacist terrorism.”
The following month, a revealing piece in Yahoo News by “journalist” Alexander Nazaryan stated that Biden’s desperately corrupt and partisan Attorney General Merrick Garland “told Congress on Wednesday that violence incited by white supremacists poses ‘the most dangerous threat to our democracy.’ That assertion reflects near-universal consensus among national security experts, including those who worked for the Trump administration.”
In June 2021, Biden doubled down: “As I said in my address to the joint session of Congress: According to the intelligence community, terrorism from white supremacy is the most lethal threat to the homeland today. Not ISIS, not al Qaeda — white supremacists. That’s not me; that’s the intelligence community under both Trump and under my administration.”
The agenda of Old Joe Biden, Merrick Garland and their henchmen was obvious and insidious: they intended to find those white supremacist terrorists, and prosecute and destroy them. They had no anxiety about the prospect of not finding those white supremacists in sufficient numbers, because by “white supremacists” they actually meant law-abiding patriots who dissented from the left’s political agenda. The Garland “Justice” Department, which should have been rebranded as the Partisan Vengeance Department, wasn’t content with persecuting Donald Trump. It also sicced the FBI on angry parents protesting at school board meetings, worked with Twitter (X) and other social media giants to silence and deplatform people with opposing views, and even sent spies into Catholic churches to keep tabs on pro-lifers.
That’s what Biden, Garland, Wray and the rest meant by a “white supremacist terror threat.” Now Gabbard has swept all that aside and begun the road back to realism and honesty regarding where the real terror threat is coming from. The problem she faces is that the views of Biden, Garland and Wray have been spread for years within the intelligence community, not just during the Biden regime, but during the Obama years as well. If she doesn’t manage to root it out in its entirety, it will continue to do damage to law-abiding Americans. All patriots should be hoping that at this critical juncture, Tulsi Gabbard succeeds in the monumental task before her.
Radical Islamist Terrorism to me is a triple redundancy. But At long last we have someone who actually aseems to get it.
Be well, sir, and your knowledge and insights are invaluable.
” Your knowledge and your insights are invaluable ” except when Mr Spencer keeps referring to Biden as
Ole’ Joe Biden. Ole’ Joe- you remember- that cute and cuddley ole fellar. Remember all the great times
we enjoyed together. STOP IT!!! You wouldn’t refer to Hitler as Ole Adolph- WOULD YOU???
Old and cuddly? More like Old Scratch.
We get it. It’s just amusing to call him names. Immature? But fun. Can’t we have a laugh now and then?
I for one was seriously warning people that this seemingly addled old man had plenty of dirty tricks up his sleeve against us: Namely his son getting away with highway robbery, taking Ukrainian money, immersed in corruption over there, and rotting away our beautiful country with his tricks. He got away with so much!! More, I think, than most other corrupt Presidents.
“Old Joe Biden then said it during his speech to a Joint Session of Congress in April 2021: “we won’t ignore what our own intelligence agencies have determined – the most lethal terrorist threat to the homeland today is from white supremacist terrorism.” ”
Thanks for nothing Joe. And calling us white folks “white supremacists” was your excuse and the rest of the intel clowns in your admin for doing nothing about the real terrorists, Muslims and their Leftist enablers
The result………October 7th in Israel, and the concurrent rise in antisemitism on US campuses, and all over the E.U.
Yes, the Hamas Whores at Barnard Dyke College tried just last week to occupy a building the way the Psuedostinian subhumans occupy Gaza. President Trump has minor punishments in mind for the college but the lezbos wore Hamas head rags over their faces to hide their identities and the college will protect those criminals anyway.
Barnard threatened to call the cops and scared them away but it wasn’t because its administrators disagreed with the attempted terrorism but because they didn’t want the bad publicity.
Trump’s America has no patience for the “woke” jihad.
Good for Tulsi. It appears that she has a keen grasp on the obvious. I wish the media did too.
I wish the Minitrue Media trolls would commit hara-kiri.
This is incorrect. Progressivism is and remains the biggest national security threat. Radical Islam in the West is allowed by progressives. Only progressives could and will, end our Constitution.
I would say to humanity.
Jihad is not a crime; each instance is an act of war.
Jihad is islamic warfare to expand itself & impose sharia.
If da’wa works (aggressive ‘call to islam”, less need for jihad.
We, the ‘filthy kuffar,’ can convert, kneel or die…
Or FIGHT BACK.
Clinton started the idea that white supremacists were more dangerous than Islamic jihadis. I’m curious, how many people have white supremacists killed since Clinton’s presidency and how many have Islamic jihadis killed? If we limit the search to the USA I’ll bet more folks have been killed by jihadis; if we take in the entire world there is no question jihadis have killed substantially more, possibly by orders of magnitude.
It’s great to have an administration official telling the truth and not being stupid by claiming climate change is our biggest national security threat.
The bigger threat from Islam is those of them who have managed to work their ways into public office in our country. No Muslim should ever be allowed to hold any public office in our country. See how that has gone in the UK? Their police there are now enforcing Sharia law.
“White supremacist terrorism”??? Except for the occasional mentally deranged nut job, how many white supremacists have strapped bombs on themselves to blow up in public places? How many have flown airplanes into buildings, driven vehicles packed with bombs to blow up in crowded places? How many have run amok, wielding knives and slashed and stabbed innocent bystanders?
Crickets…
For the truth, in novel form, read Intrepid Spirit (davidtunno.com.) Many first place/best book and 5-star awards. Inspired by the events of 9/11, it’s a well-researched, unique, exciting, swashbuckling, military action-adventure tale that pulls no punches when it comes to who are the villains on this planet.
America is and has always been the biggest threat to this world.
Glad to see this from Gabbard, that the increasingly neocon WSJournal keeps calling an isolationist or pacifist. . Let’s never lose sight of terrorist Islamic groups, or of Islamic states in general even if there are a very few whose leadership is desperately trying to modernize them.
