Political correctness is allowing radical Islam to destroy the western world

Posted

Saturday evening’s Democratic Party debate displayed the full range of liberal thought on the war against Islamic terrorism — all three candidates refused to use the “R” word (radical Islam) — in a silly game of political correctness that is allowing the cancer of radical Islam to metastasize and spread terrorism throughout the world.

The only way to defeat radical Islam is to identify it as our enemy and then crush it militarily. Anything short of that allows groups like ISIS to recruit supporters by claiming victory over the west.

 Sending 50 of our special ops heroes over to Syria to fight ISIS does little more than put those special forces in danger. If we want to prevent more attacks like what happened in Paris or prevent our planes from being blown out of the sky like the Russian plane over the Sinai, the United States needs to send a force large enough to crush and destroy ISIS and any other radical Islamist movement.

Sadly, there are going to be civilian casualties. ISIS and other Islamic terror groups embed themselves among the civilian population. But the most humane way to conduct this war on terror is to fight it with a large force, with extreme power, and end it as soon as possible. We must avoid civilian casualties as much as humanly possible, but at the same time we need to remove the handcuffs from our military leaders and allow them to win this war.

Our terrorist radical Islamic adversaries are joyfully celebrating that Obama, liberal/ progressives, and libertarians like Rand Paul voluntarily throw away America’s military strength by denying and handcuffing it, allowing the Islamic terrorists to attack our western allies and eventually to attack on the American homeland.

For those who ask, “Why do we always have to be the world’s policemen?” — the answer is that this is our fight. If we allow ISIS and other Islamist groups to expand we will be mourning the dead in our major U.S. cities the same way Parisians are mourning their dead today.
