The Locust Doctrine

Over the past two decades, there has been a decreasing amount of daylight between leftwing politics and global Islam.  Generally, conservative media are satisfied to explain this unholy and unlikely alliance with the simple observation that both sides hate America, but the link is far stronger than that.

As Dan Holloway points out, Islamists and Marxists have more in common than a joint interest in dismantling Western society.  In studying both Islamism and Marxism, you discover they share a near identical oppressor/oppressed dichotomy at the core of their dogma. Though one is theistic and the other is primarily economic, both Muslims and the radical left see themselves as victims, fighting the moral fight, and completely justified in the killing of anyone who disagrees with them, i.e. their perceived oppressors.

While both pose a threat to the continuity of our Republic, for the purpose of this article, I will address Islamism.   I have discussed many times previously the dangers of Marxism, but the time has come for our nation to speak openly and honestly about Islam.  We must no longer be intimidated into silence surrounding this topic because we fear the meaningless label of “Islamophobia.”  Freedom-loving Americans must be courageous, speak the truth, and say what must be said in no uncertain terms. 

Like Marxism, Islamism is a cancer to the world.  It is not a religion, but an ideology.  It is not merely incompatible with American values, it is antithetical to them.  Islam forbids freedom of speech and religion.  It treats women as second class citizens.  Islam condones rape and pedophilia. It has its own legal framework, known as Sharia Law, which is violently intolerant of anything not Islam.  Islam has no place in America.

This is an 80/20 issue.  Most Americans know multiculturalism is a failed experiment. The politicians who espouse it are either corrupt or extreme narcissists, ignorant of the deadly cost of their own suicidal empathy.  Americans see what mass migration from Islamic countries has done to Europe and they do not wish to see their own country similarly disintegrated.  Islam attempts to justify modern day barbarism, and its leaders have shown no intention to assimilate to American culture.  They have, in fact, repeatedly shown their intention to infiltrate, multiply, and assume control when they have sufficient numbers.

Recently, the issue of Islamism in America has finally bubbled to the surface, and the time is right for significant policy changes to combat the threat.  There have been many headlines this week showing the devastating impact Muslim migration is having on America: a massive Medicaid fraud scandal in Minnesota perpetrated by Somali immigrants in an effort to launder money to Al-Shabab; an Afghan was just arrested for making a bomb to attack Fort Worth; and another Muslum killed two National Guardsman in D.C. while shouting “Allahu Akbar.”  Enough is enough and Americans are demanding action.

President Trump has taken to social media to say he will be taking several measures in response.  These include: suspending the Biden Administration’s temporary protected status of immigrants in Minnesota and elsewhere, subjecting them to deportation, stopping all migration from third world countries, ending government benefits for non-citizens, and conducting reverse migration with foreign nationals who are “financial burdens, pose a threat, or are culturally incompatible” with America. 

This is the mission upon which Trump should hang the balance of his Presidency.  There is no nobler aim than the preservation of America, and our Constitution not only allows the President to take action, it mandates it.  He should immediately use his authority to denaturalize and deport people who refuse allegiance to our Constitution.  Reverse migration is the only solution to this problem, but it will be challenged.

The Democrats will undoubtedly fulfill their tired and customary anti-Trump reflex by siding with the jihadists.  Nothing could be more fitting than having their final stand as a party be shoulder to shoulder with foreign born malcontents chanting “Death to America” and burning our flag.  And in doing so, they should hand the midterms to the GOP, and the oval office to Vance in 2028. 

Wherever Marxism or Islamism dominate over individual liberty and personal responsibility, those countries are invariably reduced to violently oppressive economic wastelands, with their people suffering in inexorable poverty.  History provides countless examples:  Iran after 1979, Lebanon after 1975, Russia after the Bolshevik Revolution, Venezuela after the election of Hugo Chavez in 1998, etc.  The loss of law and order, the devastation of resources, starvation, inflation, and refugees fleeing across the globe; the after effects of these ideologies is the same as those left by a swarm of locusts.  Islamism and Marxism leave a terrible path of destruction everywhere they go.  The priority of any country interested in self-preservation should be to keep them out at all costs.
