Radical Islamic Extremism in the United States

Maybe we could’ve seen this problem coming during the Obama presidency. ISIS was emerging in Iraq, committing mass atrocities, including genocide against the Yazidis, and Barack Obama couldn’t condemn it. If you can’t call ISIS what they are, you’re willfully ignorant. They were a genocidal band of radical Islamic terrorists; it’s a term Barry was reluctant to use. 

When he was with HotAir, Allahpundit dubbed Obama “President See no evil” amid the rising ISIS threat. Forward to 2023. The former president’s acolytes, who dominate academia, have applied the same willful ignorance to Hamas. It’s painfully exposed in this open letter from the Loyola University Law and Economy Project students. 

We’ll get to that in a second, but I’m sure many of you have seen a string of disturbing videos. It goes beyond the morons tearing down the posters of missing Israelis whom Hamas took hostage on October 7. It’s the man on the street videos showing many of these pro-terrorist, anti-Israel protesters don’t even know what happened. Some were unaware that Hamas attacked Israel, raping, torturing, murdering, and immolating 1,400 civilians. 

The ones that kill me are the folks who ask bystanders to sign a petition for Hamas to liberate Palestine. At first, these clowns are willing to sign before finding out the Islamofascist agenda items that Hamas backs, like killing all non-Muslims, forcing women to have male chaperones if they leave the house, and making homosexuality a capital offense. Predictably, no one signed the sheet. 

Others do know about the October 7 attacks, but they don’t care. These rallies nationwide have become outlets from which the most vicious anti-Semites can gather to rejoice in their terrorist ways and call for the killing of all Jews. At the University of Maryland, someone called for “Holocaust 2.0.” For the side who wallows in self-righteousness about knowing the facts, they’re abjectly stupid about the Israel-Hamas war. 

I know—that’s a given. But this letter from the Loyola University Law and Economy Project students provided some excellent copy that would make Hamas blush. You almost must wonder if the terror group penned the letter, which blames Israel for killing innocent Palestinians. Yes, the false genocide narrative was included, which is what happens when you only watch Democracy Now! or the Quds News Network. Israel doesn’t intentionally target civilians; that would be Hamas. The number of students who don’t understand that Hamas are terrorists is genuinely astounding. Not shocking, but a bit unnerving, along with the Mount Vesuvius-like explosion of anti-Semitism. 

These institutions are now pro-terrorist and should be treated as such. At the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, the administration was about to suspend students who were creating mayhem on campus over the Israeli invasion of Gaza. They walked it back when they learned it could impact those on student visas. Who’s running these higher education hubs? It’s the patients right now running the asylum, and they’re all pro-Hamas. And it’s these types of kids who will carry out the next terror attack in this country.

To recap, the left thinks these are the good guys:
