OP-ED: On Inauguration Day, after it got the United Nations to pass a gag rule on insulting religions, the Organization of the Islamic Conference (OIC) told our new president in a New York Times ad that Muslims "have compelling strategic and moral reasons to cooperate and peacefully coexist with the United States in particular, and with the West in general."
Many Muslims here and elsewhere want that partnership; but some, jihadists in the name of Islam, disagree violently. In its address to our new president, the Organization of the Islamic Conference (which has permanent status at the United Nations) made no mention of its own strategic skills that resulted, on Dec. 18, in the passage by the U.N.

Intimidation is a major weapon of the Islamists and the Left. They have similar tactics and both intend to rule the world. The loser in this battle is freedom.
“Can we kick these !@#$%^ out of New York already and move them to the Hague?”
Heck no!!!

Yes...but their liberal, globalist, and free trader friends would pitch a fit if their beloved UN was moved out of New York...and putting them in The Hague will have the America-haters running to the Intl Criminal Court every time an American exerts one of their God-given rights.
I would prefer the UN permanently disbanded
