Another 9/11 is Unlikely -- and That's not Good News
American Thinker.com ^ | September 15, 2020 | William Kilpatrick

The fact that there has been no 9/11-type attack in the U.S. for 19 years proves… what? That Islamic terrorist groups are not capable of mounting another such attack? That America’s security network is on much higher alert than in the innocent days before 9/11?

Maybe so. But another, quite likely possibility is that Islamic radicals see no need for another large-scale attack. Why bother with spectacular, violent acts of jihad when incremental, under-the-radar, cultural jihad will serve the same purpose?

Cultural jihad, which is also known as stealth jihad, is a long-term campaign to influence and even co-opt key social institutions such as schools, courts, media, political parties, and churches. In what follows, I will use the terms “cultural jihad” and “stealth jihad” interchangeably.

Many Americans think that, as long as there are no major terror attacks, then all is well. But what we need to worry about most are the day-to-day stealth attacks on our culture. These “stealth” operations don’t even need to be particularly stealthy. Americans tend to put the best possible interpretation on the activities of the multicultural “other.” Thus, when in the days immediately following 9/11, various Islamic advocacy groups managed to convince President Bush that Islam means “peace,” and that terrorists were only a tiny minority who had “hijacked a great religion,” those who noticed assumed that the advocates were only being helpful.

The 9/11 attacks ended on the same day they began, but stealth jihad influence operations didn’t stop for a minute. The suit-and-tie jihadists were back at work on September 12, September 13, and September 14, and have been busily pursuing their subversive aims ever since. That’s approximately 7,300 days of subversive activity -- and most of it has gone unnoticed.

We need to end political correctness and we need to return to a society where you can say “I don’t like your kind”. Excessive levels of tolerance has not served our country well. Unless you think “Cuties” is good entertainment.

Not ever seeing another “911 like” attack from Muslims may actually suggest that it was not them to begin with.

During the 8 years Obama was prez they didn’t need to attack.

While Trump is prez, they don’t dare.

Good news! With Israel and a number of Arab nations making peace, this is a legacy of September 11, 2001.

Once there is a vaccine, and the vaccines are coming, the lockdowns will end.

I understand the authors point but this is a terrible headline.

I would not be surprised in the bearded savages were colluding with the democrats to pull off another major attack so as to blame it on Trump, as they have blamed everything on Trump since he was elected.

But the neo-marxists in alliance with the democrat party are a bigger threat, since they are much smarter and have much more hate than the bearded savages. The election cycle is not over yet, and the antifa/blm savages are well funded, and full of anger and hate.

Yes. Diversity is NOT our strength. Commonality IS our strength, but that doesn’t win votes for the Dems. So they will divide, divide, divide and blame it all on The Orange Man.

How divisive is it that those NFL players gave more respect to Lift Every Voice and Sing, than they did to our actual National Anthem???

ENOUGH!!

THIS

Islam was doing perfectly fine infiltrating this country through immigration, reproduction and politicization before Bin Laden's ego screwed it all up for them. Prior to 9-11-2001 most Americans were too ignorant of Islam to have an opinion on it at all. In retrospect OBL was a pompous idiot who set their cause back substantially.

Islam on mosque day is fine.

The other six days of the week, it’s a problem.
