Trump Was Right - "Strip Out" Radical Islam's Support Networks Here

Nine years ago today, Donald Trump gave one of his most important speeches ever. In Youngstown, the then-Republican nominee for president powerfully repudiated the appeasement of jihadists long pursued by his opponent, Democrat Hillary Clinton.  Mr. Trump put forth, instead, a comprehensive and realistic of set of policy initiatives rooted in a central proposition: We are confronting not an assortment of “terrorists” irrationally, if not inexplicably, seeking kill us.  Rather, America especially is being targeted by adherents to an ideology at the core of “radical Islam.” Its proper name is Sharia. And Candidate Trump promised to keep more of them from coming here and, most importantly, to “stripping out and removing one by one [their] support networks…in this county.” That must be done now, starting with the designation of such networks' mothership, the Muslim Brotherhood, as a terrorist organization.  This is Frank Gaffney.

Fox News star Maria Bartiromo rolled out yesterday another pathbreaking special on the Chinese Communist Party's unrestricted warfare against America.  This one features the Commander of U.S. Space Force, a developer of cutting-edge military technology and other experts assessing the PRC's ominous determination to beat us to the moon – and to use a base there to control access to it and the “cis-lunar” space in between and project power even here on earth.  A key contributor to the show is our colleague, Roger Robinson, who described in a powerful interview with Maria yesterday that – as with myriad other Chinese military programs – the CCP's weaponization of space is being enabled, in part, by unwitting U.S. investors. Mr. Robinson will be unveiling today a report detailing the extent, and dire implications, of this aspect of our insane underwriting of the enemy.  That must stop. This is Frank Gaffney.

Obviously, there are different branches of the Muslim Brotherhood, so you'd have to designate each one of them.” Those who have enabled that Sharia-supremacist – and therefore terrorism-tied – group and its fronts like the Council on American-Islamic Relations to metastasize in this country will surely mobilize to prevent their designations as such. Qatar, Turkey and jihadist organizations they support will use their considerable influence and operatives to protect the Brothers.  Still, nine years ago this week, then-presidential candidate Donald Trump pledged that “the support networks for Radical Islam in this country will be stripped out and removed one by one.” That's a promise made that must be kept now.

Concerns are growing that the galloping advance of artificial intelligence will imperil our jobs, freedoms and country. I call the phenomenon “FrankenAI,” and even some in the industry worry it's becoming a man-made monster. We're told the unregulated pursuit of AI is required to compete with Communist China or we'll be permanently dominated – militarily and economically.  Some experts are warning, however, that by allowing China to buy AI-useful Nvidia H20 chips – and then profit from the sales, the Trump administration will help it beat us.  While others contend those chips are widely available, and we'll stay ahead by selling them, we seem to be facing a lose-lose proposition: Facilitating Chinese AI dominance – even as we pursue technologies that may make us more like Communist China – appears to be a formula for FrankenAI, at their hands or ours.  This is Frank Gaffney.

If you are ever tempted to think that one person can't make a difference, think again. My colleague Cleo Paskal exemplifies what a single individual can do with determined and sustained effort. Cleo has long warned that the Chinese Communist Party is using insidious political warfare to undo hard-won and extremely costly World War II victories that liberated strategic Pacific islands west of Hawaii from the control of another totalitarian regime, imperial Japan. With help from Steve Bannon and other amplifiers, Clare Paskal is now getting high-level and popular attention, particularly with her argument that U.S. territories like Guam and the Northern Marianas constitute America's western border.

Yesterday, Apple CEO Tim Cook used a White House appearance to commit to invest $600 billion to manufacture its products in this country.

Incredibly, Wall Street continues enabling such behavior by underwriting the CCP military's unprecedented build-up. Simultaneously, our own defense industry and armed forces are insanely reliant on CCP's sources of rare earth minerals and components. A new Government Accountability Office analysis found that, “These suppliers may cut off U.S. access to critical materials or provide ‘back doors' in their technology that serve as intelligence pathways.”  It is unconscionable that such dependencies – and the associated, potentially catastrophic vulnerabilities – have been allowed in the first place. As with Wall Street's ongoing treachery, the policies and practices that have gotten us into this fix must be formally repudiated and abandoned, and those responsible held accountable. And corrective measures must be made urgent national priorities.  This is Frank Gaffney.

The wheels of justice appear to be spinning at a higher RPM these days. Attorney General Pam Bondi reportedly has ordered a federal prosecutor to submit evidence to a grand jury about what the media is branding as “Russiagate.”  She's responding to a criminal referral of what the source of such evidence, Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard, calls a treasonous coup led by former President Barack Obama. Therefore, a more apt descriptor of the epic scandal would be “Obamagate.” It remains to be seen whether a recent Supreme Court ruling shielding presidents from prosecution for official acts while in the White House will protect Donald Trump's predecessor for his alleged involvement in such a conspiracy. Obama's complicity must, however, be investigated, along with many of his senior subordinates' – and prosecuted, at a minimum, in the court of public opinion.     This is Frank Gaffney.

Huckabee blamed “the total obstruction” by Hamas for any privation that is happening.  Another example of efforts to win in the information warfare battlespace what the jihadists cannot on the battlefield is the claim made recently by Professor John Mearsheimer on Tucker Carlson's podcast that Israel is engaged in “genocide” against the Palestinians.  That's also demonstrably and shamefully untrue and amounts to aiding and abetting not just Israel's enemies, but ours.  This is Frank Gaffney

Only by decisively defeating that terrorist regime is there any prospect of an actual end to the Gaza conflict, as opposed to a hudna – Islam's cynical use of temporary pauses to regroup, rearm and then reengage under more favorable circumstances.  Even the Arab League has finally called on Hamas to lay down its arms and release the hostages, albeit in the absurd context of having the hapless Palestinian Authority put in charge of a new state of “Palestine.”  If Hamas won't surrender for the good of the people it misrules, Israel must make the jihadists do so now.   This is Frank Gaffney.

Tens of billions of dollars would thus be generated, redistributing wealth from American and other consumers to feed the UN's climate change slush fund and agenda. This initiative would not only fundamentally transform the UN by ending its reliance on member states' funding, which affords them a measure of control.

The claxons are sounding on Wall Street. Finally, analysts are beginning to take seriously the prospect that the U.S. financial sector's longstanding practice of underwriting our mortal enemy, the Chinese Communist Party, is becoming untenable. Praise the Lord. For example, one insider newsletter recently put it this way: “We continue to believe the de-listing of Chinese stocks from U.S. exchanges is increasingly likely as we believe both Republicans and Democrats will push for action. This is because there is no political downside to blocking Chinese firms from accessing U.S. capital while there is significant political risk to being branded as supporting the Chinese military and Chinese competition to U.S. companies.” In fact, for those very reasons, we should see both the relatively small number of Chinese companies listed on our exchanges and the thousands of others being traded there removed forthwith.

President Trump will host Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu next week and is expected to press his guest to accept a 60-day ceasefire with Hamas. The predictable result would be to give Hamas what their patrons – the Iranian mullahs – got from the last one in Iran: namely, a new lease on life. Compelling the Israelis to withdraw from parts of Gaza and deliver humanitarian aid to Hamas simply means the war there will resume in due course – and under circumstances significantly less favorable to both the Israelis and us. The time has come to try the sane alternative: Let Israel finish the job.   This is Frank Gaffney

During the Cold War, American experts would scrutinize every shred of evidence – including who stood where on Lenin's tomb during military parades – for clues about Kremlin leadership struggles and their implications for our security.  A similar phenomenon is underway at the moment regarding  China's secretive Communist hierarchy. Purges of senior military officers believed to be loyal to the current Chinese “emperor,” Xi Jinping, his recent, protracted absences – both physical and from the state-controlled media, and rumors of his ill-health are feeding speculation he may soon be toppled from power. A timely webinar today will assess whether Xi's days as absolute dictator are indeed numbered. And, either way, whether the advanced state of his preparations for a shooting war means that we are at a moment of acute danger – and what's our appropriate response.  Join us at noon Eastern Time at PresentDangerChina.org.

The Iranian Mullah's "Endless War" is Not Over

President Trump has declared “the 12-Day war is over.” But what about the truly “endless war” perpetrated by the Iranian mullahs against us and Israel when they came to power forty-six years ago?   It would be more accurate to say hostilities have paused, consistent with Islam's Sharia doctrine. It dictates that adherents like Iran's leaders can only interrupt the jihad they must wage to achieve Sharia's triumph worldwide if defeat is imminent and to buy time to regroup, rearm and renew the fighting when they can prevail.  A VictoryCo.org briefing at noon Eastern Time today will scrutinize the Iranian regime's ongoing bellicose rhetoric and actions – including a top ayatollah's religious order to assassinate President Trump. To actually end its endless war, Israel must finish the job by eliminating the mullahocracy, thus affording the Iranian people a chance to Free Iran. This is Frank Gaffney

The CCP's Crushing of Hong Kong - and Plans for Taiwan

Five years ago today, the Chinese Communist Party “fundamentally transformed” Hong Kong from a relatively free and economically thriving territory into just another enslaved city within the People's Republic of China.  With Beijing's imposition of a draconian national security law, the CCP finished off the last vestiges of the “one-country, two-systems” arrangement it promised Great Britain would apply for fifty years when she surrendered the colony in 1997.   Dissent has been crushed, with its champions like Jimmy Lai and Joshua Wong cruelly imprisoned. The mainland's totalitarian social credit system enforces the Party's edicts. And Hong Kong's capital market now serves as a financial Trojan Horse, a vehicle for Wall Street to fundraise for Chinese military companies like CATL.  An even worse fate awaits Taiwan if the Chinese Communists can next acquire it, one way or another. That must not happen. This is Frank Gaffney.

The ongoing debate about the damage inflicted by U.S. and Israeli forces on Iran's nuclear weapons program is obscuring a larger – and deeply concerning – reality: What's been described as the end of “the 12-day war” has left the mullahs still in power in Tehran, their instruments for repressing the Iranian people still operating and their Communist Chinese allies still able to infuse the regime with cash, know-how and military hardware. Thus, as long as the ayatollahs remain in control, they can always simply buy nuclear weapons. They can use their surviving missiles, or newly manufactured ones, to attack our forces in the region and/or Israel. And they can activate jihadist cells in this country – including teams tasked with assassinating President Trump.  Without decisive victory and a Free Iran, what we have is not peace, but more endless war with the Sharia-supremacists.  This is Frank Gaffney.

Following the U.S. military strike that devastated key parts of Iran's nuclear weapons infrastructure, President Trump effusively thanked Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu for his own and his country's help in ensuring the mullahs do not get nuclear weapons. He added, “We worked as a team like perhaps no other team has ever worked before.” Last night, Mr. Trump went even further in a Truth Social post, describing his partner as a WARRIOR. “We were fighting, literally, for the Survival of Israel, and there is nobody in Israel's History that fought harder or more competently than Bibi Netanyahu.”  A veteran of politically motivated lawfare himself, the President called for an immediate end to an ongoing “TRAVESTY OF JUSTICE” afflicting the prime minister. The same should apply to political warfare against Bibi being waged by some influential Trump allies here.   This is Frank Gaffney.

Yesterday, New York City Democrats chose a so-called “progressive” Muslim, Zohran Mamdani, to be their next mayor. Will his candidacy prompt at last scrutiny of what authoritative Islam's Sharia doctrine entails – a truth largely suppressed in this country since its adherents attacked us on 9/11?  Sharia requires faithful Muslims to strive to achieve its totalitarian triumph worldwide. Wherever possible, that is to be accomplished through violent jihad, or holy war, as practiced by the “perfect man”: Islam's prophet Mohammed.  When violence would be counterproductive, however, Sharia demands that jihad be pursued by other means. As we have seen in Britain especially, Sharia-supremacist Muslim Brotherhood-engineered block-voting has elected Muslim mayors in London and some twenty other cities. As Charlie Kirk recently courageously observed, “Sharia is incompatible with Western civilization.” And stealthy “electoral jihad” poses a threat to it here. This is Frank Gaffney.

The ceasefire between Israel and Iran President Trump announced yesterday came amidst signs that the cumulative effects of recent Israeli and U.S. military actions were putting the Iranian regime in extremis. The right response to the impending demise of an enemy government that has explicitly pursued for forty-six years “Death to Israel,” “Death to America” and the destruction of Judeo-Christian civilization is: “Do Not Resuscitate.” By contrast, what amounts to a hudna – a pause that allows the ayatollahs to regroup, rearm, repress their people and resume  jihad when expedient – would be strategic defeat for their intended victims, including us. President Trump has brilliantly teamed with Israel's Bibi Netanyahu to make possible a decisive victory in the truly “endless war” with Iran. Join us at VictoryCo.org for an emergency briefing today at 2 p.m. ET for what needs to be done now.   This is Frank Gaffney.

On Saturday, U.S. military forces impressively devastated Iran's nuclear weapons infrastructure. Unfortunately, some targeted enriched uranium may have been moved beforehand, assuring the Iranian regime remains a dangerous threat. So do its active options to close the Strait of Hormuz, kill U.S. troops in the region, continue attacking Israel and activate sleeper cells inside the United States.  Yet, we're insistently told we must negotiate a “peace deal” with the ayatollahs, leaving them in power, able to continue  repressing the Iranian people and actively threatening Israel's – and ours. Fortunately, President Trump seems to have opened the door to “regime change” in a social media post yesterday. Indeed, Israel must be free to finish the job by making that possible and we must stop negotiating with the mullahs, thereby legitimating them and discouraging their people from bringing about a Free Iran.  This is Frank Gaffney.

Remember the TV game show called “Let's Make a Deal”? Contestants would choose one of three doors, hoping it concealed a great prize.  The present churning on Iran feels like that show. President Trump has faced two unpalatable options: Door One: Do nothing and, effectively assure the mullahs' regime remains in place – including its covert nuclear weapons program. Or Door Two: Bomb a very hard Iranian nuclear target and become engaged military in another Mideast war.  Instead of giving the ayatollahs two more weeks to agree they won't “get the Bomb,” which amounts to Door One, he should take Door Three: Require the mullahs' true “unconditional surrender,” meaning the liberation of the Iranian people.  Anything less means victory for the Sharia-supremacists and ensures much more of the truly “endless war” they have waged against us from Iran for over forty years.  This is Frank Gaffney.

There's a secret weapon in the campaign to end the mortal threat the Iranian regime poses to Israel, America and Western civilization: namely, the people of Iran.  After all, the mullahs' Sharia-supremacist totalitarian misrule has impoverished, isolated and murdered them for over four decades. In addition, the ruling ayatollahs believe they must bring back their messiah by initiating the Apocalypse, which would kill untold millions of Iranians, among others.  If empowered to liberate themselves, Iran's people can do more to end the regime's doomsday nuclear weapons program than any external power. So, we need to encourage and enable them to rise up.  Understandably, they'll only take the immense risks of doing so if convinced Western deal-making with the regime won't sell them out again. That means no further negotiations with the mullahs for any purpose other than their unconditional surrender.  This is Frank Gaffney.

Frank Gaffney is president of the Institute for the American Future, President & CEO of Save the Persecuted Christians, Vice Chairman for Committee on the Present Danger: China. He is speaker on the Secure Freedom Minute. Frank acted as an Assistant Secretary of Defense in the Reagan Pentagon. Frank began by reminding listeners that, "Israel has in fact been explicitly threatened with death by the Iranian regime since it came to power in 1979, 46 years ago. He went on to say, "When your enemy tells you what they're going to do to you...you must heed that warning." Frank believes Israel must "finish the job" which means to finish off the enemy. More specifically, he referred to the Mullah's in Iran and not simply taking down their nuclear weapons enterprise, otherwise he believes they will continue to foster terrorism across the globe. Review this program as Frank brings expert analysis to this subject of world tensions, not only specific to the Israel/Iran war but also regarding the following: What is the chance of possible Russian or Chinese involvement in the Israel/Iran war? With the aircraft carrier Nimitz being redirected, will this create more tension for Taiwan? Do we know who or what is funding the destructive activities in Los Angeles? How concerned should we be about sleeper cells? What are we to make of blue state, activist politicians, who are working against ICE and other federal agents?
