The FBI Must Start Mass Surveillance on Those Attending These Pro-Terrorist Rallies

I say this with immense hesitancy since the FBI is compromised, weaponized by Democrats to go after its political enemies, namely former President Donald Trump. But there is no alternative agency right now with the resources to do what must be done in the wake of the October 7 attacks. 

There is no other preeminent law enforcement and domestic intelligence agency with the jurisdiction to carry out operations that are now a national security concern. And yes, I know the risks involved regarding staffing, which I’ll get to in a second. 

Hamas invaded southern Israel and butchered, raped, and beheaded over 1,400 Israeli men, women, and children. The left doesn’t care, even enabling and endorsing the barbarism. The media has memory-holed the atrocities, permitting anti-Israel activists to spew anti-Semitism, including fake news narratives like the ones involving Hamas being innocent of committing such barbaric acts. “No babies were beheaded or burned,” except they were. The lack of coverage is the “soma” from which the left wallows and is sustained by their willful ignorance. The other part is the unbridled hatred of Jews. 

Maybe these terrorist sympathizers know about Hamas, their crimes, and their agenda but don’t care because they want Jews to be annihilated. Nationwide, we’ve heard the call for the extermination of Jews. It’s the same rhetoric from Germany in the 1930s, but it’s disguised in political speak, such as, “We’re not against Jews; we’re against Zionism.” It’s all the same. 

Now, we have these pro-Hamas operatives wanting to recreate the October 7 attacks here, which is why the FBI must have files on everyone involved. 

It's from this pool of pro-terrorist trash that the recruits for the next attack will be found. It’s not just here; radical Islamists damn near overrun Europe. They’re plotting to overthrow governments and void constitutions. They must be stopped at all costs. 

The problem is they’re a significant portion of the Democratic Party base, whose power bases include some key states in next year’s election. Joe Biden must win Minnesota and Michigan in 2024, two states that have a severe radical Islam problem. Reps. Rashida Tlaib (D-MN) and Ilhan Omar (D-MN) represent these pro-terrorist enclaves. It’s why the Biden administration is pussyfooting with this “humanitarian pause” nonsense that will never happen. Hamas is a terror group—any pause will be to their benefit. Israeli forces must be allowed to wipe them out. 

In the meantime, with these rallies becoming gatherings for jihadi trash to promote violence against civilians, I want every surveillance operation and device known to man deployed in these communities. Tap the phones, track their social media, and if necessary, arrest and detain their community leaders. 

We had one Jordanian plot a terror attack in Houston, Texas, where he illegally obtained firearms on a non-immigrant visa and researched homemade bombmaking. He was plotting to attack the local Jewish community, a threat credible enough for the FBI to bust him on the weapons charges instead of waiting to hit him with more federal crimes. 

On November 3, a woman crashed into what she thought was a Jewish school in Indianapolis. She confessed to committing the attack and her intended targets. The enemy is already here, living amongst us. If the FBI can identify hundreds who trespassed on January 6, then they can find every pro-terrorist activist at these rallies, and they should. The problem is the staffing—and this is where things get hairy. If the Department of Homeland Security hires ex-PLO spokespersons to handle our asylum claims, who is working inside the FBI besides the usual pro-DNC types? 

It's a horrible situation, but what choice do we have right now?
