It may seem impossible that atheistic Communists could make common cause with theocratic sharia-supremacists. But, as the great Amy Mek’s RAIR Foundation has documented on X today, just such a “Red-Green alliance” is jointly mounting a concerted political warfare campaign in Ft. Worth, Texas. 
Its immediate object is to lionize a Muslim woman recently reassigned from the position of principal of a 2000-student high school in that city pending an investigation into her problematic social media posts. Among other things, they dissemble about the threat posed by Islam’s strategy for war known as sharia. 
The designated terrorist group called CAIR is seeking to use a Ft. Worth school board meeting this afternoon to force it to restore Shayma Alzubi to a leadership role in the city’s public education. Patriotic Americans are going to stand up against them. Learn more at BanSharia.com.

The British wit, Samuel Johnson, described second marriages as “the triumph of hope over experience.” So are negotiated “deals” with Iran’s sharia-supremacist regime.
For decades, unfulfilled diplomatic promises have bought it breathing room, legitimacy, money and strategic advantage. 
As I speak, President Trump is being told that this time Iran will actually honor such promises – including ceasing its efforts to control the Strait of Hormuz. By tying himself to such an unfounded hope, he will not avoid an endless war. 
Instead, Donald Trump would become humiliatingly responsible for perpetuating – rather than terminating – the one we are in, made possible, not least, by the previous bad deals.
Only by decisively defeating the Iranian regime and helping liberate its people is there a real chance for peace. And there will be no better time, no more favorable circumstances than today’s to do that.

Yesterday, an incredibly timely webinar addressed perhaps the most important question of our time: “Is sharia a ‘religion of peace’ or a strategy for war?” 
The answer impacts everything from whether there is any prospect for a “peace deal” with Iran to whether sharia-adherent Muslims can be expected to support and defend the U.S. Constitution to the advisability of building more Islamic centers here and importing more foreign imams.
The webinar established unmistakably that for fourteen hundred years, Islam’s “prophet” Mohammed, his successors and untold numbers of their followers have adhered to a political-military-legal program they call “the path,” or sharia in Arabic. And its express goal is to use violence and other forms of jihad to impose sharia worldwide. 
Sharia is, in short, a strategy for war and the compulsory submission to it of non-adherent Muslims and everyone else.

The noose is tightening on Cuba’s Communist regime that has long brutalized its people and threatened ours. According to Fox News Digital, the Justice and Treasury Departments are investigating “145 U.S. non-profits and activist groups with $1 billion in collective revenues…as part of a wider influence campaign by Cuba's communist regime and other foreign actors.”
Among those subpoenaed is Code Pink co-founder Jodie Evans, the wife of a China-based billionaire named Neville Roy Singham. He’s reportedly put $278 million into pro-Communist advocacy groups. 
It’s bad enough that such supporters of our enemies are allowed to help them undermine our security. Insult is added to serious injury that, as tax-exempt organizations, their groups are effectively subsidized by the American people. 
Time to put them out of business, along with the dangerous Cuban government they slavishly support.

Thank God the so-called “Memorandum of Understanding” with Iran remains incomplete. It’s in America’s vital interest that it never be finalized.
Here’s a clue: Even as negotiations continue with the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps now doing business as the Iranian government, its vessels are laying more mines to control the Strait of Hormuz. U.S. forces were compelled to attack them in “self-defense.”
If that’s how the IRGC behaves before it makes a deal to open that waterway and promises further negotiations, there is no reason to expect it will behave better afterwards.
To the contrary, fourteen hundred years of “peace accords” with sharia-supremacists like Iran’s – and in particular this regime’s gambits – guarantees this deal will humiliate Donald Trump and America and that this “endless war” will continue on worse terms. 
New Yorkers like Trump have one word for that prospect: Fuggedaboutit.

On this Memorial Day, President Trump will pay tribute to our fallen heroes amidst concerns that others’ lives may be lost in renewed conflict with Iran now temporarily paused. 
Donald Trump promised in the 2024 campaign to prevent “endless wars.” But, the most endless war in history is the one waged against Western civilization for fourteen hundred years by Islam’s founder Mohammed and his successors. And the President has an opportunity actually to defeat its prime-movers.
Unfortunately, that will not be what results from the present negotiations. To the contrary, the deal said to be in the offing will prop up and empower the Iranian regime and, by so doing, encourage every other jihadist around the world to intensify efforts to impose their totalitarian sharia law on all of us.
Mr. President, truly end this endless war by winning, not perpetuating, it.
