VIDEO: Cruz: Our enemies are not tired of killing us; We need a commander in chief who says we will defeat radical Islamic terrorism

Cruz campaign releases video highlighting Cruz response to Paris terror attacks

HOUSTON, Texas - The Cruz for President campaign today released a video highlighting Ted Cruz's response to the ISIS terror attacks in Paris and what the U.S. should do to defeat radical Islamic terrorism.

Cruz insists we can’t effectively fight ISIS with a President who refuses to utter the words “radical Islamic terrorism.” He calls for the United States to stop bringing in refugees from Syria as long as our intelligence cannot determine who may or may not be a terrorist. He has also repeatedly called for the passage of his bill, the Expatriate Terrorist Act, which will rescind citizenship from any American that travels abroad to join ISIS or any other designated terrorist group..

Cruz states that in order to defeat ISIS, we need to utilize overwhelming air power - far more than current levels - and arm the Kurdish Peshmerga fighters, who are serving as boots on the ground in the region.

Our Enemy: Radical Islamic Terrorism (video)

Transcript of Cruz's words in the video, excerpted from his recent interview on Fox and Friends:

We stand in solidarity with the people of France, with President Hollande, with the families of all of the victims of these acts of horrific terrorism.

These attacks underscore that we are facing an enemy who is fierce, who is relentless, who is at war with us even if our own president doesn't understand that it is at war with us.

As long as we have a Commander-in-Chief unwilling even to utter the words radical Islamic terrorism, we will not have a concerted effort to defeat these radicals before they continue to murder more and more innocents.

And they’re getting stronger. Every region on earth has gotten worse under the Obama-Clinton foreign policy.

I recognize that Barack Obama does not wish to defend this country. That he may have been tired of war, but our enemies are not tired of killing us.

This will be coming to America. ISIS plans to bring these acts of terror to America.

It makes no sense whatsoever for us to be bringing in refugees who our intelligence cannot determine if they are terrorists here to kill us or not.

Congress needs to pass immediately the Expatriate Terrorist Act legislation that I've introduced that says that any American that travels abroad, that joins ISIS that takes up arms and wages jihad against America, they immediately forfeit their citizenship.

We need a commander in chief who says we will defeat radical Islamic terrorism. Let me tell you what that would look like.

In a Cruz Administration we would be using overwhelming air power and the Kurds as our boots on the ground, and it would be clear to any militant on the face of the earth if you go and join ISIS, if you wage jihad against America, you’re signing your death warrant.

I know it’s politically correct to include the word radical, but it obscures the real problem.
Islam.

Islam has always been a religion of conquest and slavery.

It is based on humans baser instincts.

John Quincy Adams on Islam

In the seventh century of the Christian era, a wandering Arab of the lineage of Hagar, the Egyptian, combining the powers of transcendent genius, with the preternatural energy of a fanatic, and the fraudulent spirit of an impostor, proclaimed himself as a messenger from Heaven, and spread desolation and delusion over an extensive portion of the earth. Adopting from the sublime conception of the Mosaic law, the doctrine of one omnipotent God; he connected indissolubly with it, the audacious falsehood, that he was himself his prophet and apostle. Adopting from the new Revelation of Jesus, the faith and hope of immortal life, and of future retribution, he humbled it to the dust, by adapting all the rewards and sanctions of his religion to the gratification of the sexual passion. He poisoned the sources of human felicity at the fountain, by degrading the condition of the female sex, and the allowance of polygamy; and he declared undistinguishing and exterminating war, as a part of his religion, against all the rest of mankind. THE ESSENCE OF HIS DOCTRINE WAS VIOLENCE AND LUST: TO EXALT THE BRUTAL OVER THE SPIRITUAL PART OF HUMAN NATURE.

Between these two religions, thus contrasted in their characters, a war of twelve hundred years has already raged. That war is yet flagrant; nor can it cease but by the extinction of that imposture, which has been permitted by Providence to prolong the degeneracy of man. While the merciless and dissolute dogmas of the false prophet shall furnish motives to human action, there can never be peace upon earth, and good will towards men. The hand of Ishmael will be against every man, and every man’s hand against him. It is, indeed, amongst the mysterious dealings of God, that this delusion should have been suffered for so many ages, and during so many generations of human kind, to prevail over the doctrines of the meek and peaceful and benevolent Jesus (Blunt, 1830, 29:269, capitals in orig.).

The precept of the koran is, perpetual war against all who deny, that Mahomet is the prophet of God. The vanquished may purchase their lives, by the payment of tribute; the victorious may be appeased by a false and delusive promise of peace; and the faithful follower of the prophet, may submit to the imperious necessities of defeat: but the command to propagate the Moslem creed by the sword is always obligatory, when it can be made effective. The commands of the prophet may be performed alike, by fraud, or by force (Blunt, 29:274).

We have let the Kurds down so often they must hate us, but if we armed them (as we have promised in the past) they will take the fight to the right evil forces.

Also, Ted Cruz is a mensch.

As long as American politicians remain eager, receptive harem acquisitions for the House of Saud, we will have these Sunni jihadists metastasizing all over the world. As long as Turkey and Bosnia remain under the sheltering wing of NATO, jihadists will have sanctuary and staging areas to enter the West.

American political leadership in both parties is suborned by the aggressors to facilitate only pretend efforts to end Moslem subversion. “Religion of Peace” is the mating call of a Quisling, and yes, I remember who made it so public at the beginning.

(with Video) Trump: 'Hate the Concept' of Letting Migrants In, But 'You Have To'

Trump to CNN: 'I love the Muslims'

"I think it's terrible, and we have to act very strongly, But I will say, I watched Pam prior, and it looked like she's just taunting everybody. What is she doing drawing Muhammad? And it looks like she's actually taunting people and it's disgusting that it happened and everything else. But why are they doing drawing Muhammad? Isn't there something else they can draw?

Well, I just say, they can't do something else? They have to be in the middle of Texas doing something on Muhammad and insulting everybody? It's disgusting what happened, and we have to be very strong, but it looks to me like she's somebody who is just taunting them.

What is she doing, and why is she doing it? And, you know, I'm one that believes in free speech, probably more than she does. But what's the purpose of this? She's taunting them, she's probably, it's very risky for her, I don't know, maybe she likes risk. But what the hell is she doing, and what is the purpose of it?"

WE are in a War and the idiot “Commander in Chief” will do nothing, as his true goal is an American racial sewer. That is what he meant when he said he would “transform” America.

We need to have a Commander-in-Chief who is committed to justice by having the former Jihadist-in-Chief indicted, tried, convicted, sentenced, and hanged for giving aid and comfort to the enemy.

Since the Clown-In-Chief says global warming is the bigger threat it must mean that global warming is causing all these terror attacks.

What a lot of people don’t realize is Apostle John’s Greek letters in the book of the Revelation of Jesus Christ for 666_closely resembles the Islamic emblems.

Islam is a Satanic Cult.
