Huff Po Accidentally Makes Badass Video of White House Chief Strategist Steve Bannon
Britbart.com ^ | feb 9 2017 | by REBECCA MANSOUR

Posted on 02/10/2017 8:29:30 AM PST by drewh

In an attempt to paint White House chief strategist Steve Bannon as a dangerous warmonger and ideologue, the Huffington Post unwitting created a badass highlight reel of some of Bannon’s greatest hits. The video includes Bannon’s comments expressing concern over the imminent clash of civilizations between a demoralized Judeo-Christian West and an increasingly militant radical Islamic world.

Bannon has argued over the years that the civilizational struggle with radical Islam, along with the corrupt crony capitalism of “the Party of Davos,” the dehumanizing secularization of the West, and the ambitions of emerging superpowers like China, were all converging into a global conflict not unlike the one faced by the World War II generation.

The generational theory about “four turnings” formed the basis for Bannon’s acclaimed documentary Generation Zero about the 2008 financial crisis. The term comes from the book The Fourth Turning by William Strauss and Neil Howe, who argued that American history can be charted in a cycle of four stages, concluding with a crisis period that emerges every 80 years. According to this theory, the last crisis was nearly 80 years ago with World War II; and hence, the next crisis will soon be upon us.

Watch the video above.

civilizational struggle with radical Islam,
******************************************

There is only one Islam.
No modifier needed.
There is no moderate Koran.
Their “holy” book is where they get the idea that they must make every single person in the world submit or die.
Their prophet told them they must continue jihad until there is only Islam.
The only rational response to that threat is the eradication of the ideology.

No kidding, thanks Huf&PuffPo! Great piece for patriots!

Truth stares proggies directly in the face, and they see an enemy. Lost souls.

The biggest problem with Progressives is that they actually think they are outside of history, that they are smarter than all those who came before them, and that they will not make the same mistakes made in the past. This is a passport to strife and chaos.

That’s a great video.

What is startling is how unaware they are of how righteous people see the world.

There is only one Islam.”

Let’s discuss that a bit.

Clearly...in one sense, that is entirely true. All Muslims (not including nominal Muslims of course) are co-religionists, and will be have accordingly with respect to the infidel. Spot on.

However...there are also obviously intense rivalvies/factions which exist in Islam and who in fact are happy to kill each other when it comes to supremacy in a particular space (geographic, theological, etc.).

So...give those realities...what does a war against Islam generally even look like?

This is the part that I’m struggling with. We in the west, if we had to, could figure out how to go to war with whomever (Saudi Arabia, Libya, Yemen, wherever...) we can identify on a map. We can even do that to a certain extent with ISIS and that is what I think Trump is doing.

And in that context....we might even be able to subtly exploit “some” factions within Islam in order to defeat ISIS.

But then you have the problem of Isis sympathizers hidden in the west...and not just in Brussels or Amsterdam or Dearborn but all over.

In the real world, or in the old world of armies taking real estate and occupying it, defeating those enemies becomes more problematic.

So I agree entirely with those that say a shooting war is likely coming.

My difficulty is that I have a hard time seeing how that plays out exactly, because though Islam is one, as you note...but it is not one in that it is a place on the map that we could surround and bomb and take over, like Russia or China (which we do not need to do, because they are not actually expansionist and aggressive enemies).

Would love to hear anyone’s thoughts on that.....

We also have the problem that “Islam” is actually “more than one” because so much of the west is super sympathetic to Islam, because they see it as a persecuted race.

So a war with Islam is also going to cause a civil war in the west, with the racially-sensitive sympathizers eager to line up on the side of Islam and against the west.

not sure how much of a fighting force these liberals will constitute. but since they control the media, education, most of the political class, etc, and have unlimited funds....it’s difficult to see how a war with Islam doesn’t just become a global civil war with all open borders/globalists/socialists/environmentalists on one side, with Islam, against those that believe that nations exist and matter.

And I’m just not sure that a massive global civil war in the west is going to happen. I certainly hope that it does not; and I certainly see that it “could” happen. I just don’t think that it will, because the cost would be too great and the “reward” for the “winner” is so small.

So I sort of see the current conflict kind of continuing along the lines that it currently is....though escalating with more Berkeley events and so on.

But not sure it will go much more intense than that.

The ideology must be exposed for what it is.
Like Nazism, it is evil and like Nazism must be denounced as evil.

There are efforts afoot to squash the truth about Islam under the guise of Islamaphobia laws.

This must not only be resisted, but defeated with the truth about Islam. The ideology of Mohammed calls for the killing or subjugation of every person on earth.
Slavery was made unacceptable in the civilized world centuries ago, but is still acceptable in Islam.

The truth about Islam must be heralded from the mountaintops until it is renounced by its adherents or they die trying to kill us.

The west does not want a war with Islam, but refuses to acknowledge that Islam has been at war with the world since 622 A.D.
Their prophet commands them to continue the jihad until there is only Islam.
That leaves us no choice but the extirpation of Islam.
Mad Mo made it so.

yep.

All that is true. And obvious for those of us who have actually looked at it (like you).

But unlike Nazism, Islam doesn’t yet have a geographic center, from which it expands outwards under the direction of one leader and his minions.

Makes it hard to defeat in the same way.

The point being: we are and will be at war with Islam. But it’s not like any other war.

Does someone have a link to see the video? On my browser the article at Breitbart linked in the OP doesn’t have the video. Following the link from Breitbart to Huffpo yields another article about Bannon on Huffpo, but likewise doesn’t have a video.

I was in high school when the Cuban missile crisis happened. I can honestly say that I believe that our Nation in now more at risk than anytime in my life.

It is the infiltration and enemy within. No one would admit to being a socialist when I was a girl. In this election the Dems primary featured a Socialist and a Crook. The lack of morals and corruption in government is rampant.

Then you have the DaVos People, Bilderbergers, Council on Foreign Relations, Trilateral Commission, Club of Rome, United Nations, and all kinds of similar groups combined with hundreds of NGOs all working to subvert our National Sovereignty and bring in a NWO with the UN as a world government, and a police force and military to enforce their will.

In addition, a court has decided that Satanism is not a cult, but actually a religion. So Satanism/Luciferians are busy spreading out to the Educational Campus throughout the USA.

Then we have Islam. Here is the best two videos on the subject that I have run across. This lady survived the civil war in Lebanon. Here is the story of the religion of Islam which became Political Islam

1400 YEARS OF ISLAM in 5 MINUTES is the Title-but it's about 15 minutes:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KTt8E8uUgpw

Here is her personal story - how they welcomed the Islamic immigrants, and how the left who supported them was also slaughtered in the civil war that came:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PFO1AtjoUoo

I believe that limiting the size is one key - do not ever let them reach critical mass. Reduce the ability of Saudi’s to provide money for the Caliphate movement. Some how counter Iran's Khomeini.

When you consider all these groups that have made an unholy alliance, then ask has it reached the critical mass? If the election results are to be believed-I’d say we may have, we are at least uncomfortably close.

I read once that the Revolutionary war featured about a third for the split, a third were loyalist, and a third just wanted to be neutral. I also read that it only took 10% participation in Iran to bring in Khomeini.
