If the horrific attack in New Orleans underscored the Biden administration's failure to keep America safe from the threat of extremist Islamic terrorism, the pro-Hamas rally in… New York City Only hours later he confirmed the depth of this problem. Stopping the spread of radical Islam within America's borders and beyond should be a focal point of the incoming Trump administration.
the Biden administration He has spent the past four years confronting alleged political “threats” to America — such as targeting Catholics or parents who attend school board meetings — rather than dealing with the real threat posed by radical Islamic terrorism.
In fact, this is only one manifestation of the broader blindness from which America and the West suffer. Driven by the progressive left ideology preached throughout our schools and mainstream media, an alarming portion of the population now believes it is permissible to support anti-Semitic, anti-American extremist Islamic groups under the guise of morality or freedom of expression.
Last year, we saw these radical Islamist sympathizers marching on college campuses and in the streets of our nation's cities spreading anti-Semitic hate speech.
This ugliness was most recently demonstrated in New York City on New Year's Day. A few hours after the horrific terrorist attack that took place in New Orleans At the hands of an attacker claiming allegiance to ISIS, hundreds of demonstrators can be found in Times Square calling for the “revolution of the Intifada,” the destruction of Israel, and support for the terrorist organization Hamas.
These protesters knew exactly what they were doing: They had taken a distinctly American space generally reserved for celebrating the arrival of the new year, and turned it into a massive platform for extremist jihad. This horrific display, which celebrated the same ideology espoused by the serial killer who murdered 15 innocent Americans, should make every American sick.
We must reject any remaining misguided notions that these groups have humanitarian motives, or are at least interested in building a better future for the Palestinian people. They are not.
What they really want is to undermine America, attack and harm the Jewish people, and spread their extremist ideology in an attempt to destroy the West. In fact, in New OrleansA group called New Orleans Musicians for Palestine announced that it plans to hold a “Parade for Palestine” on January 6, just days after the attack, “to demonstrate its continued solidarity with the people of Palestine and highlight its vision.” For a world after war, colonialism, capitalism and white supremacy.”
6 times ISIS inspired terrorist attacks on American soil
None of these things have anything to do with it Palestinian people today. Fueled by a progressive anti-American and anti-Semitic ideology, these protesters have always been focused on destroying the West and the fundamental values that gave rise to the most generous and prosperous civilization in history.
These displays are the result of an education system that has misled generations of Americans about the good of our country, as well as failed leadership at the highest levels. The Biden administration has failed to address rising anti-Semitism and radical Islam in America during its tenure, a fact that has been all the more evident in the wake of the horrific October 7 attacks on Israel. The campus has become a focal point for Spreading extremist Islamic goalsWhile threats to our homeland have spread even more — and the Biden administration has done nothing to stop them.
The incoming Trump administration must take the threat posed by extremist Islam seriously, especially because it is now deep within America's doors. No university receiving federal funding should allow calls for uprising, threats to Jewish students, and threats to America on its own soil.

The campus “protests” we witnessed in the wake of October 7 were in fact violent pro-Hamas mobs threatening and attacking Jewish students by spreading anti-Semitic hatred. President Trump should also use his position as president to defend against the claims of these protesters and make clear that America stands firm against this intolerance.
In addition, President Trump must once again take the fight to radical Islamic organizations abroad. After four years of the Biden administration, groups such as The rule And ISIS is making a strong comeback, especially in the wake of Biden's disastrous withdrawal from Afghanistan. As these groups expand and flourish abroad, their ability to build effective networks inside America also threatens our people.

We cannot simply sit idly by and expect that this threat will not eventually come home to harm the American people — we need to go on the offensive and ensure that groups like ISIS do not have the ability to threaten the United States or radicalize our citizens.
For four years in Trump administrationWe kept America safe by doing this. I am confident that President Trump can deliver to the American people once again.
