This is a brief clip from the season premier of “Homeland” and it’s important, because, in the clip, a CIA operative “speaks truth to power.”
In the video, the CIA operative explains that the Jihadists’ strategy is based on centuries-old Islamic doctrine to form a Caliphate. He also questions whether or not the US has any real strategy to combat the enemy threat doctrine.
I must warn you, the clip is NOT safe for work as it contains harsh language. But if you are not offended by bad language, I urge you to take two minutes and view this.
And then spread it to your friends and colleagues.

I really enjoy this series. It’s had some very good writing...hope it continues.
Good link thanks!
What does Quinn say at 1:45? “Hit Brusett. Pile a rocket ina parking lot.” What? I can’t make it out.
Great clip otherwise. I just didn’t understand what he said at the end.
Guess the Progressives are glad this is a cable show and not widely distributed.
pound it into a parking lot
Either pound or pile Raqqa into a parking lot. That clip is a good assessment of what we’re dealing with. Its getting near the point of having to go Hiroshima on them to get them to know you mean business but I don’t think that’s the answer and would most likely be countered with extreme terrorism on American soil. Pure military strategy won’t win this war. They are determined litlle bas$&#ds and willing to sacrifice themselves for the cause. You’re going to have to wage a psychological war against their false god’s origins and get them to doubt who he is and if he’s worth fighting for to even put a slight dent in their armor. That and take out heir radical commanders / leaders. It ain’t going to be a walk in the park, that’s fer sure...
Thanks, makes sense now.
“wage a psychological war against their false god’s origins and get them to doubt who he is and if he’s worth fighting for”
Don’t be ridiculous, Islam is an entrenched religion. That will never work. Killing them all would be much easer and more effective.
What does he say before “Pound Raqqa into a parking lot?”
Sounds like “Hit preset.” Can you make it out?
Here’s the take of the operative:
200,000 troops indefinitely with doctors and school teachers ...........”Not going to happen”
Or
Hit Reset, meaning pound it into a parking lot.
********************************************
The above is so shallow and incomplete as to be worthless.
Here’s my take, aggregated from contacts from there and who are much more knowledgeable than nearly all Americans, and somewhat confirmed or affirmed by Donald Trump:
1. STARVE THEM OF FUNDS BY CUTTING DEALS THAT CANNOT BE REFUSED TO ALL INTERNATIONAL BANKS INCLUDING PRINCE CHARLES, THE ROTHSCHILDS AND ALL SWISS BANKS WHETHER THEY LIKE US OR NOT THEY FOLD WITH US OR THEY PAY MORE THAN THEY CAN EVER IMAGINE.
THIS MEANS THE $150 + BILLION THAT IS IN THE PROCESS OF RELEASED GETS FROZEN.
TRIPLE THE SANCTIONS. DONALD TRUMP SAYS ‘DOUBLE’ BUT MY CONTACTS SAY ‘TRIPLE’. WHAT DOES ALL THAT MEAN? IT MEANS NO TRAVEL, NO BANKING, NO TRADE AND MASSIVE PENALTIES INCLUDING MILITARY ENFORCEMENT ACTIONS TO ALL PLAYERS, ALL MEANING ALL, INCLUDING WESTERN PLAYERS. THE ‘TRIPLE’ MEANS INSUFFERABLE, AS SERIOUS AS DEATH ITSELF. DONALD TRUMP’S ‘DOUBLE’ IS THE SPIRIT OF APPLYING ‘HURT’ TO GET THEM TO NEGOTIATE. BUT ‘TRIPLE’ MEANS NO NEGOTIATIONS; DEATH ONLY, MEANING DEATH TO THE IDEOLOGY AND THE LEADERS OF THAT IDEOLOGY.
2. STARVE THEM. IN THE SPIRIT OF TRIPLING THE SANCTIONS, LAY SIEGE TO ALL LAND, SEA AND AIRWAYS THAT BRING FOOD AND MEDICINE AND ANY HUMANITARIAN GOODS AND SERVICES.
BOMB THEIR AGRICULTURAL INFRASTRUCTURE UNTIL THEY ARE PHYSICALLY STARVING. OF COURSE THIS IS BEYOND HARSH, BUT WAR IS HELL AND STARVATION CHANGES PEOPLE INTO SAVAGES, IT CHANGES THEIR THINKING, THEIR VIEWS, AND THEIR VALUES.
3. WAIT UNTIL SUFFERING IS SO CRITICAL THAT THE POPULATION IS READY TO TAKE ANY RISK, DO ANYTHING TO OVERTHROW THE REGIME IN PLACE.
DROP LEAFLETS (AS THE RUSSIANS ARE DOING NOW AND WHAT THE AMERICANS USED TO DO IN PREVIOUS WARS). THE LEAFLETS EXPLAIN THAT TO LIVE THEY MUST SURRENDER UNCONDITIONALLY.
4. REEDUCATE. SOUNDS SOVIETESQUE BUT IT IS A MUST. USE THE PRECEDENT OF MUSTAFA KEMAL ATATURK TO TURN ISLAM INWARD SUCH THAT ALL TEACHINGS FOCUS ON THE INNER BEING AND NOT THE OUTER REALITY. MAKE ISLAM A STRUGGLE IN THE SOUL NOT A JIHAD. THIS CAUSES ISLAMIC REMISSION TO AN INNER BELIEF LEAVING THE OUTER WORLD SECULAR AND MORE PEACEFUL.
FUND SCHOLARS TO STUDY THE MALIGNANCY OF ISLAM FOR PLANNING AND MAINTAINING REMISSION OF ITS JIHAD CANCER. INSTITUTIONALIZE THE ATTENTION, THAT IT IS TO FOCUS ON ISLAM, AND ALL OTHER BELLIGERENT RELIGIOUS OFFSHOOTS AND IDEOLOGIES. JUDAISM AND CHRISTIANITY ARE TO BE EXEMPT IN ALL FUTURE GENERATIONS.
FORCE THE CREATION AND MAINTENANCE OF RULE OF LAW INFRASTRUCTURE ACCORDING TO WESTERN INTERNATIONAL NORMS AND CALL FOR CAPITAL PUNISHMENT TO ALL PRACTICING OR ESPOUSING SHARIA LAW.
CALL FOR ELECTIONS AND MANDATE THAT ALL ELECTED LEADERS AND THEIR CHOSEN DEPUTIES HAVE ANKLED BRACELET MONITORING WITH DAILY CHECK-INS FOR IDENTITY CONFIRMATION AND TRACKING.
ever tried to get rid of fire ants? That's what we're dealing with metaphorically. Going to have to take out all the queens andbdestroy their nests.
This is how I predict it will end. We won’t do it, but Russia, Israel or India could.

I wrote this on Lawrence Auster’s “View from the right” a few years back.
HOW ISLAM—AND THE EVER-PRESENT THREAT IT POSES TO HUMANITY—COULD BE BROUGHT TO AN END IN ONE, SIMPLE STEP
Matthew Bracken writes:
Your commenter James P. writes:
Muslim refusal to engage in rational debate, engage in self-examination, or permit “humorous” attacks on their religion are not weaknesses. They are mighty strengths! They are not Islam’s “brittle glass jaw”; they are its bulging biceps! These attributes generate fear in their enemies, and cause their enemies to seek to avoid provoking Muslims and to appease Muslims when they are angry.
I agree that these attributes of Islam have proven to be a great advantage to it as a war religion for 1,400 years. However, we are now seeing before our eyes a paradigm shift that may bring about the end of Islam in the present generation. Samuel Huntington spoke of Islam’s “bloody borders,” but until the modern era, the true scope of the horror was only realized by the victims living on those borders who were under constant attack (the ultimately unsuccessful and now condemned counter-jihad we call the Crusades being the notable exception). Five hundred or a thousand miles from Islam’s bloody borders, it was always difficult to make people understand the existential threat Islam presented to all non-Muslim societies. After its early rampant “break out” period, when seen in the context of each generation, Islam appeared to be merely biting off one more small slice of territory at a time. And on it marched, generation after generation, always moving forward, rarely being pushed back, impervious to self-examination or reformation, as deadly in our modern times as it was at the beginning.
That is changing now, because today the entire world sees Islam’s true face revealed when Muslims go into these insane rages after perceived insults to Mohammed. Their ingrained lack of introspection means that Muslims can easily be provoked into going beyond the stealth-mode they normally follow beyond Islam’s bloody borders, waking up the world to the existential threat Islam poses to all non-Muslim societies. Down the centuries, the West has often had appeasers and accommodationists as leaders, men who were willing to cut short-term local deals that over time always led to incremental Islamic advances. And these weak Western leaders were the only men who mattered, era by era. Today, as a contrast, average citizens around the world are beginning to understand how to push Islam’s automatic rage buttons, and this changes the former equation in a fundamental way. As you mentioned, videos released by lone, non-state actors at the right time could be used to torpedo the next sell-out by Western appeasers, such as over the inclusion of Turkey in the EU.
Another fundamental difference today from prior centuries is that millions of people understand that Islam has another tremendous weakness, another glass jaw, and that is their worship of the black moon rock in Mecca as Islam’s literal god-head. This black rock enshrined in the corner of the Kaaba is essential to Islam in a way that nothing in Judaism or Christianity is. The Cross lives in the hearts of Christians, and Christianity would not be destroyed if Jerusalem or Rome were destroyed. But that physical black rock in Mecca is the “hard drive” of Islam. Muslims believe that it contains all of the sins of all of the observant followers of the Prophet since the time of Mohammed, as sort of an Islamic Doomsday Book. Two of the Five Pillars of Islam involve the physical worship of that black moon rock. One is the Hajj to Mecca where pilgrims walk in a circle around the rock, and the other is the five-time daily prayer performed in its direction. (The other three pillars are ephemeral: the Shahada conversion prayer, the tithe, and observing Ramadan.) A religion that is impervious to change or self-examination (which James P says are strengths) cannot suddenly be reduced to The Three Pillars of Islam after 1,400 unbroken years as the Five Pillars of Islam.
In ancient Islamic history, the black moon rock was once stolen by a competing tribe, but after a brief time it was “found.” Islam carried on because nobody outside of a very small circle of imams even knew the rock was missing before it was replaced. But if Mecca was suddenly turned into a giant crater, there would be no way to conceal the fact from the world at large, including every Muslim. Today, observant Muslims believe that if every infidel nation fired every rocket and bomb at Mecca, Allah would turn them back or stop them in mid-flight. It is impossible for observant Muslims to believe that the Infidels could destroy the Kaaba, which is literally the physical manifestation on earth of their “greatest God.”
The Crusaders were only able to retake Jerusalem for a short time, and never got close to taking Mecca (assuming that they even understood its importance to Islam and had some notion of taking it). It was not within their power to threaten this source of Islam’s power and mystique, even if they had desired to do so. In all eras before modern mass communications, even if a Crusader “commando team” had made it to Mecca, it would not have changed anything, because the leading Muslim clerics would have replaced the black rock and rebuilt the Kaaba, and nobody would have ever known, in the same way that nobody at the time knew that the black rock had once been stolen and carried off.
Today, the entire world would know in the same hour that Mecca had been destroyed. This would destroy Islam as surely as the Aztec and Inca religions and empires were destroyed when the Spanish conquistadors captured and executed the “living Gods” at the center of the Aztec and Inca belief systems. If there is no Mecca, there is no Islam. There can be no Islam with three instead of five pillars, the two physical pillars having been destroyed by the Gods of the Infidels. “Allahu Akbar” means “our God is greatest.” This cannot be so if the Infidel God destroys the physical god-head of Islam, which is the black moon rock at the Kaaba in Mecca.
I have no expectation that any American president would order the destruction of Mecca, even if American cities had been destroyed with nuclear bombs sent from a Muslim country with a clear return address. However, not all nations are as hamstrung by self-doubt and political correctness as we are. Russia, India, and Israel, I am sure, have Mecca on their target list. If Moscow, New Delhi, or Tel Aviv were destroyed by an Islamic bomb, I believe that Mecca would be wiped off the planet Earth the same day, even the same hour.
And that would spell the end of Islam, after its unparalleled 1,400-year reign of terror.
No Mecca, no Islam, as long as the world witnesses Mecca’s physical annihilation. There will follow a period of madness, with many Muslims committing mass suicide and mass terror, but more of them will become atheists or convert to Christianity (“the stronger horse”). In all cases, Islam as we know it will be finished. After fourteen centuries, the steady mantra “Our God is greatest” cannot become “We used to believe that our God was the greatest, but it was proven to be weaker, if not a fraud.” The glass jaw of Islam, its inability to self-examine or reform in any way, will prove to be its Achilles’ heel. The 1,400-year run of murder and madness will at last come to an end. After sixty generations, we may be the one to witness its ultimate destruction and collapse.
God willing.
LA replies:
I thank Matt Bracken for this excellent essay. As I have been saying since the inception of VFR, I am interested in and will publish any reasonable proposal on how to defend the West from Islam. VFR has occasionally posted proposals for the destruction of Mecca. One of them was by then-Rep. Tom Tancredo. He put the idea forward as a deterrent threat to be made to Islam: If Muslims launched another major attack on the West, such as 9/11, America would destroy Mecca, or, at least, America would not take that threat off the table.
Another article posted at VFR was by a prominent conservative author under the name “Westerner,” who argued for the pre-emptive nuclear destruction of Mecca and Medina (after the populations were given due warning to leave). I disagreed, arguing that his idea was premature, and that what was needed now was my proposed separation of Islam from the West, not the total destruction of Islam. However, I conceded that there may come a time when Islam becomes so dangerous that his proposal would have to be considered.
Mr. Bracken’s proposal is less extreme than Westerner’s only in that he calls for the destruction of Mecca, not of Mecca and Medina. I do not endorse his proposal. I do say that both his proposal and his argument supporting it are highly interesting and worthy of discussion.
Is "Racca" a script substitute for "Mecca"?
In any case, the scriptwriter has put some absolute truth into that character's mouth.
Raqqa for now, but I think Mecca is implied. He went as far un-PC as possible, but still couldn’t say “The Koran,” instead he said, “their book” several times.
“Their book” = Koran
“Raqqa” = Mecca
Please read my above essay, from View from the Right a few years back. It’s the Mecca end game.
> What does Quinn say at 1:45?
“Hit Reset.”
and
“Plow Raqqa into a parking lot.”
Good plan but you leave too many alive.
Bomb the crap out of them until a couple mil are dead while you implement your plan.
Will shorten the timeline.
I like short timelines.
That’s a decent psychological military strategy to break their morale and resolve; make them focus on merely surviving. Take out their social media networks with an online group dedicated to identifying who their propagandists personnel are. Its a fact they have educated many of their people sending their children to schools in the West. Now they are using the skills (hacking, social media, law, etc...) they learned at our universities in America and the U.K. against us.
Mecca delenda est.
Hit the reset button. It was another punch to Hillary’s face. Greatest couple of moments in TV history
