COMMON SENSE: The Progressive narrative, which insists Islam is a religion of peace and refuses to identify terrorists by their belief system, maintains that the way to keep Jihadism from spreading is to be nice to them. If we offend them in any way, we are helping them spread their hatred. People like Hillary, Obama, and Kerry really believe this, but it’s the exact wrong position to take.
Radical Islam understands one thing—power. Being nice to them is what encourages them, which they see as weakness. What will work is to destroy their ability to wage war. We must cease our photo op foreign policy, change the rules of engagement, and alow our military to do what they do best. Nothing else will work.
Unfortunately, President Obama is so wedded to his ideological perspective, he will never have the will to do what is necessary. Neither will Hillary Clinton. To check ISIS, we must take the fight to them and kill them—lots of them.
