Secure Freedom Minute

Yesterday, President Trump formally signed a deal with Iran based in part on an assessment that we can safely, and generously, do business with its new leadership.

Unfortunately, a webinar conducted shortly before the ceremony shockingly exposed why the unaltered, sharia-supremacist character of Iran’s government remains a threat to its own people, and ours.

This program was part of a series examining how sharia-adherents like the recently installed Grand Ayatollah and his subordinates condone child marriage, sexual abuse and slavery that they aim to impose worldwide as part of sharia’s strategy for global conquest. 

Set aside for the moment the inadvisability of granting such men renewed access to international oil markets, financing and imports of, among other things, advanced weapons. Legitimating and empowering a regime that brutalizes children is a formula for proliferating such behavior, including here.

President Trump is expected to hold a press conference today to discuss a fourteen-point “deal” with Iran. Incredibly, it would formalize the United States’ surrender to a regime that has, from its inception, unwaveringly sought to bring “Death to America.” 

For example, many billions of dollars will immediately begin flowing to its jihadists. All sanctions will end. The U.S. will withdraw its forces from “the surrounding areas” and commit never to go to war with Iran again.

Such terms might be justified if President Trump had “finished the job,” by enabling the people of Iran to liberate their country. 

Instead, under present circumstances, this document sets the stage for the mullahs to finish their job, which is to bring on the apocalypse and thereby usher in the Golden Age of Islam. 

Mr. President, don’t make that disaster your legacy. Walk away now.

There’s much loose talk about the so-called “deal” between the United States and Iran. Increasingly, it’s being described as “ending the war.” 

That is, at best, wildly premature. At worst, it is dangerously delusional.

By restoring the Iranian regime’s access to oil revenues, ending sanctions and blockades of its ports, this agreement assures its survival and eliminates U.S. leverage – effectively dooming any further negotiations aimed at ending Iran’s nuclear weapons program. 

In fact, with Communist China’s active help rearming Iran, a more realistic assumption would be that the mullahs will simply buy nuclear weapons from North Korea or perhaps Pakistan. 

Thus, when – inevitably – they resume kinetic warfare, the threat will surely be existential for Israel, Iran’s neighbors and possibly large numbers of Americans. Donald Trump has done so much to prevent that, and must not have it be his legacy.

That would appear to be the case with the so-called “deal” with Iran’s regime now expected to be signed on Friday. President Trump is determined to get the Strait of Hormuz reopened and gas prices reduced before the mid-term elections.

While the accord’s details aren’t available yet and, if past Iranian practice is any guide, may be further modified, it seems lopsidedly advantageous to our enemies in Tehran. We make far-reaching concessions on our blockade and sanctions relief in exchange for further negotiations and the mullahs’ easily reversed opening of the Strait. 

Most worrying, it ensures their survival, which will be correctly portrayed by them and their fellow jihadists worldwide as a victory. And pursuant to sharia, that ensures intensification of their war against us, elsewhere and here.

The Texas Republican Party faces today a seeming no-brainer choice: Will it stand with the man at the top of the GOP ticket this fall, Governor Greg Abbott, and 1.9 million voters in its base in opposing sharia-supremacism? 

Or, will it legitimize among its convention delegates operatives of the Muslim Brotherhood and its pitbull front, the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) – which Mr. Abbott has properly designated as terrorist organizations.

One of them, Dr. Tarek Hussein, actually founded CAIR’s Texas chapter and authored a paper about how to infiltrate political parties. The obvious purpose of doing so is to advance the Brotherhood’s stated “mission” of “destroying Western civilization from within with the help of unbelievers.”

Banning sharia is a winning issue for Republican and other patriots – unless the Texas GOP submits to it, alienating them and further empowering and emboldening the jihadists.

One of America’s greatest achievements was the prohibition of slavery. It took a sustained national grassroots effort which birthed the Republican Party and the election of its abolitionist presidential nominee named Abraham Lincoln, a victorious civil war, then decades more to overcome Democrats’ strenuous opposition to civil rights reforms. 

Even now, Democrats are making common cause with sharia-supremacists whose predecessors enslaved black Africans and sent them to this country for sale. A BanSharia.com webinar yesterday revealed slavery is just one of the prophet Mohammed’s abhorrent practices that sharia still commands his followers to emulate. 

Make no mistake: If the jihadists have their way here, all of us will be enslaved as sharia replaces our Constitution and destroys the freedoms it guarantees. 

The webinar persuasively concluded the times require a new abolitionist movement. Let’s call it, “Abolish Slavery 2.0.” Join us at BanSharia.com.

If past practice is any guide, Chinese dictator Xi Jinping’s state visit to North Korea yesterday afforded an opportunity for more  “strategic arson” aimed at distracting the United States from his increasing preparations for acquiring Taiwan via force if coercive pressure and/or elections don’t have that effect.

That could entail a manufactured ratcheting up of tensions with South Korea now controlled by another of Xi’s Communist allies, President Lee Jae-Myung. He’s long wanted to remove U.S. forces from the peninsula and would probably happily play along with a bit of PRC-directed theater to do so to avert a Potemkin crisis.

Another ominous possibility is that Xi covertly directed Kim to join him in rearming Iran, building on their Chinese-approved collaboration on nuclear weapons by transferring one or more of them from Kim’s burgeoning arsenal to Tehran.  

Brace for impact.

Dr. Adam Hamawy just won the Democratic nomination for the New Jersey’s 12th Congressional District, effectively ensuring he will be sworn in next year. 

A question occurs: Can he faithfully pledge to “support and defend the Constitution against all enemies, foreign and domestic”?

For one thing, Hamawy previously lied under oath on behalf of the Blind Sheikh, Omar Abdel-Rahman, during the trial that convicted him of conspiring to bomb the World Trade Center the first time. 

Then, Hamawy repeatedly shouted during his victory party last week “Allahu Akhbar” – the declaration that “Allah is the greatest” jihadists notably make as they perpetrate terrifying violence on unbelievers.  

Finally, there’s the prospect that, if Hamawy is elected, he will take his oath with a hand on the Koran, a book that commands its adherents to lie to the infidels.

What could possibly go wrong?

Iran fired waves of ballistic missiles at Israelis cities yesterday. It’s the latest evidence that the idea of negotiating a deal of any value, let alone durability, with what’s left of the mullahs’ regime is an exercise in futility. 

After all, thanks to the present, so-called “ceasefire” such missiles are being steadily exhumed from the underground shelters in which they were buried earlier this year. 

And that’s just one indication of the dangers associated with what is actually a hudna – the traditional Mohammedan temporary pause that allows Muslim warriors time and space to rearm, regroup and resume hostilities under more favorable circumstances. 

In addition, more Chinese weapons and components are being shipped into Iran daily and will be aimed at Israel, our forces and allies in the region and, in some cases, perhaps us here at home.

Mr. President, finish the job.
