No worries, we shall use it for him

Or perhaps we can promote a more sensitive term?

Un-Islamic terrorism

Just say Islam.

It is Islam, after all, which is bent on global conquest. Europe is just the immediate goal.

McMaster has made statements that indicate he does not understand the threat of Islam.

I knew this guy was bad news when the establishment went all gaga over him. Trump is over impressed with Generals, don’t know if he looks deep enough before he hires.

We need to go back to calling it Fundamentalist Islam.

Muslims who want to live peaceably with non-muslims are the religious radicals.

So typical. Instead of simply focusing on destroying those who want to kill us, the leftist lying media once again are struggling over terms and classifications. Call them bad bozos in bathrobes. Who gives sh*t?

There is no “radical Islam”, there is only Islam.
