When is Jihadist Not a Jihadist?

This is Frank Gaffney with the Secure Freedom Minute.

When is a jihadist not a jihadist? Evidently, when it is inconvenient to the Biden administration to acknowledge the truth.

For example, in Afghanistan, Team Biden has decided to prop up the Taliban with still-ongoing U.S. cash infusions following a bequest of some 80 billion dollars in advanced American weapons.

Now, it contends that the Islamic State is a renewed threat following the toppling of Syrian dictator Bashar Assad, warranting scores of bombing strikes in recent days. Evidently, however, Syria can be safely entrusted to a Sharia-supremacist named Abu Mohammed al-Jolani – with ties not only to ISIS, but al Qaeda and his very own designated-terrorist group, HTS.

Evidently, if you believe that the Muslim Brotherhood and Iranian mullahs deserve our support, you will fall for any jihadists’ transparently fraudulent professions of moderation. You’ll also likely get a lot of us killed.
