When I first read the title, I’m thinking what the heck is he talking about. Then as I read the article, I understood. Yes, it is a war, and it’s a war similar to the cold war that he has identified. That is, first and foremost it’s a clash of civilizations/ideas. With the Cold war it was Communism/Socialism vs. Western style liberal democracy. Now it’s that same Western style liberal democracy vs. Islamo Fascism which is simply another form of socialism.
In a war of ideas you have to educate and win the hearts and minds. During the cold war we had the Voice of America and political leaders like Kennedy (the good one) and Reagan who called out the Soviet masters. They weren’t afraid to identify their enemy. That is the first step, we can’t be afraid to identify our enemy. Our enemy is Islamo Fascism. I define it as a means of government control of the people by use of a religious philosophy. Socialism where instead of the state being the god, Allah and his prophet Mohammed is the god.
The Islamists are cannon fodder...they will be the shock troops used to destabilize the west. In the US, it will be socialist latinos that helped create Venezuela...they were in the caravan.
