And we have no countervailing strategy, worth the name, for dealing with today’s existential threats to Western Civilization. Read Full Story

“. . . With access to technology that allows small groups to do great harm, they have embraced a nightmarish vision that would divide the world into adherents and infidels — killing as many innocent civilians as possible, employing the most brutal methods to intimidate people within their communities . . .

The only language understood by killers like this is the language of force . . .” ~President Barak Hussein Obama Read Full Story
