Good morning kids. Hope you all had a very merry and blessed Christmas. With that in mind, as well as an early doctor’s appointment for the wife, I really am going to try and keep things brief and posting a little earlier than usual, so away we go.
President Trump announced Thursday that the US military hit ISIS terrorists in Nigeria targeting Christians with “numerous” deadly airstrikes.
“Tonight, at my direction as Commander in Chief, the United States launched a powerful and deadly strike against ISIS Terrorist Scum in Northwest Nigeria, who have been targeting and viciously killing, primarily, innocent Christians, at levels not seen for many years, and even Centuries!” Trump wrote on Truth Social.
“I have previously warned these Terrorists that if they did not stop the slaughtering of Christians, there would be hell to pay, and tonight, there was,” the president continued.
“Under my leadership, our Country will not allow Radical Islamic Terrorism to prosper. May God Bless our Military, and MERRY CHRISTMAS to all, including the dead Terrorists, of which there will be many more if their slaughter of Christians continues.”
US Africa Command said the Christmas Day strike was carried out in Sokoto state and initial assessments indicate “multiple ISIS terrorists were killed in the ISIS camps.”
The Department of War shared unclassified footage of a missile being launched from the deck of a military vessel after Trump announced the operation.
The Pentagon coordinated with the Nigerian government ahead of the strikes.
“The Department of War worked with the government of Nigeria to carry out these strikes,” a War Department official told The Post.
“These strikes were approved by the government of Nigeria.”
. . . The airstrikes come one day after a bomb ripped through a mosque in Nigeria’s northeastern city of Maiduguri, killing five people and injuring dozens, in a suspected suicide attack.
The African nation has been plagued by violence carried out by multiple armed militant groups, including Boko Haram and Islamic State of West Africa Province.
I have some mixed feelings about this. First of all, the government of Nigeria hasn’t done a damn thing to protect its own citizens and has allowed the cancer of Islam, in this case the strain known as Boko Haram, to fester within its borders for years. That said, Islam is spilling a river of blood all across the Western World as we witnessed in abject horror just last week in Bondi Beach, while western leaders are burying their heads, prior to being lopped off by Khalid’s rusty hacksaw, in the sand and worse, blaming the victims and celebrating the butchers as the real victims.
While there is no such thing as “Radical” Islam because that is a redundancy. Islam itself is an evil, “radical” retrograde genocidal political movement that for 1500 years has sought the domination and/or destruction of the world. Whom they can neither convince nor dupe nor force into conversion they will annihilate.
On the one hand it is a good thing that President Trump and therefore America is picking up the mantle of defender of civilization as no other nation nor leader is capable or willing to do the same, On the other hand my fear is American boots on the ground in Africa. It should be noted that Nigeria and much of the African continent is rich in natural resources including petroleum as well as the much coveted and discussed rare earth elements. So much so that the Red Chinese are desperate to set up shop and in essence put the dark continent into its sphere of influence, like everywhere else on planet earth, so denying yet another retrograde tyranny the means and bases with which to challenge America’s vital foreign interests and security would be a positive in supporting the Nigerian government. On these pages and on the latest episode of the podcast linked here, and in the sidebar as well as on the usual popular outlets listed below, CBD and I discussed President Trump’s recent announcement of his desire to construct a fleet of 25 modern battleships.
This of course is sheer folly, but at least it sends a message that he and we mean business when it comes to defending our interests at home and abroad.
But what are our interests? While it’s certainly a good thing that the literal cutting edge of Islam is met and beaten back with blunt force. I fear that by not shedding this ridiculous and self-defeating notion of legitimizing the idiocy of the twin myths of both “radical” and “moderate” or mainstream Islam, we are ultimately doomed to fail. President Trump is usually very good at boxing his enemies into rhetorical corners and confronting them with their hipocrisies and shoving them down their throat. Here is the golden (pun intended) opportunity for Trump to call on these alleged Moderate Muslims to publicly renounce and reject any and alll Koranic/Isamic teachings calling for the death of infidels. When this is of course summarily rejected and or denied, those who have eyes to see will see it plain as day.
The cutting edge of ISlam is right under our nose and creeping down towards our jugular vein.
Rep. Brandon Gill (R-TX) said there was a possibility that the potential $9 billion in welfare fraud allegedly committed in Minnesota may have been sent to terrorists in Somalia. “Do you sense, Congressman Gill, that any of your Democrat colleagues in Congress, in the House, are so outraged that they’ll actually join in the investigation or maybe try to give a little bit of credence to this bill?” guest host Kellyanne Conway asked. “I mean, they they’ve got to feel outraged that billions of dollars meant to go and feed hungry people could have gone to Somalia — certainly went to fraud and waste and abuse and not to those truly in need. . “You know, I hope that Democrats recognize how unbelievably corrupt this is, how it undermines our entire social system, our entire economic system, and gets on board,” he continued. “But, you know, they’ve been pretty hesitant to do that so far. The Democrat playbook has been import as many unassimilable foreigners as they possibly can, get them on the dole, and ensure that these people vote Democrat for life. That’s what we’re up against here.”
Hope over experience. Feh. A quick spin of your Replogle globe will show that Somalia is just a couple of not very long Tarzan vine swings from Nigeria. No doubt that Boko Haram, ISIS or whatever in Somalia, the Houthis just across the Red Sea and every other clit-clipper and head chopper are all interconnected. And far too many of them are right here already in the US of A.
But I better erase all of this as I wouldn’t want to be labeled Islamphobic. Let’s not lose our heads. Literally!
On all these cheery notes, have a great weekend!
And lastly, a quick shout-out and a huge thank you for your continued support in hitting our tip jar. It truly is appreciated more than you can know.

How Illegal Immigration and Government Failure Fuel Identity TheftWE-ALL-SLAM-FOR-I-SLAM - Indonesia has a reputation for being a “moderate” Muslim nation, but the wind in the Islamic world as a whole is blowing in the opposite direction, as a group of Christians has just discovered. Notice that it has now been nearly a quarter-century since 9/11, and while we have seen heroic individual Muslims such as Ahmed al-Ahmed, who tackled one of the Bondi Beach jihadis, we have never seen any large-scale Muslim action against terrorism. We have never seen Muslims form a human wall to block an Islamic jihad attack, or to stop a woman from being abused in accord with the direction to “beat” disobedient women in the Qur’an (4:34). But forming a human wall to prevent Christians from celebrating Christmas? No problem.

So if Kamala Harris happens to read these words, we’d advise her NOT to watch CNN’s 7 am Christmas Day hour. What she’d find under the tree will be something worse than a lump of coal. It will be a steaming pile of . . . ridicule. It’s almost 2026, so why not a horse race segment on 2028 presidential contenders? After Dem Meghan Hays and Republican Melik Abdul named their favorites, Abdul observed: “Notably, who we’re not talking about: Kamala Harris.”Host John Berman put it to Hays: “Why aren’t we talking about her, Meghan?” Abdul burst into laughter, amused to see Hays thusly put on the spot, and even Berman couldn’t suppress a grin. Hays proceeded to engage in an extended bout of nervous laughter. She questioned whether Harris has a base and could raise money.

He defeated his rival, Communist Party candidate Jeannette Jara, in an unprecedented landslide this time, taking every Chilean state. He ran on a campaign focused on strengthening Chile’s borders, limiting immigration, expanding “popular capitalism,” and fighting crime.
