The Solution to Terrorism

 

Would anyone have thought terrorism would ever be a dominant issue in our country?

We all know it has become a major issue, and it's only getting worse.

Yesterday on our radio program, I mentioned that The New York Post published a piece about a terrorist aligned leftist group that ran a summer camp in August here in the Northwest.

The Seattle chapter of Revolutionary Youth participated, along with chapters from Bellevue, Puget Sound, Bellingham, and Issaquah.

Teens waved terrorist flags and learned Maoist war tactics at the hidden Northwest location.

While the "summer camp" appeared to be a typical summer camp, it was not.

What is the solution to this growing issue of terrorism in our "City on a Hill?"

Turning the Spotlight on Islamic Terrorism

I often hear people ask, "Why are there never any real consequences for the barbaric acts of terrorism?"

Particularly Islamic terrorism?

There is now a move underway to bring justice to the terrorists.

Indiana Attorney General Todd Rokita announced a probe into the Council on American-Islamic Relations and National Students for Justice in Palestine last Wednesday.

That was the third anniversary of Hamas’ Oct. 7 terror attack on Israel. Rokita demands that the groups hand over documents and communications related to their post-Oct. 7 actions and “records concerning the organizations’ ties to other groups and individuals with known connections to terrorists.”

There are also a number of other efforts to hold the terrorists responsible.

Secretary of State Marco Rubio: "The West is at a Crossroad"

The Jerusalem Post is reporting that "US Secretary of State Marco Rubio spoke in Greece on the third anniversary of October 7, 2023. He spoke Wednesday against the epic backdrop of the Parthenon on the summit of the Acropolis in Athens." 

"In his speech," the Post says, "he sought to channel the world of the ancient Greeks and contrast it with today’s world."

And it said, "His message was clear: It is in Athens and the Greek city-states that Western civilization has its roots. We must look to those roots, the way the Romans once looked to their swords after the sack of Rome in 390 BC, to renew and defend our way of life."

It was a powerful speech that reveals both his personal worldview, his deeply held Christian beliefs, and the policy of the Trump Administration.

Is Capital Punishment Biblical?

Government has the biblical authority to take a life under appropriate circumstances, but such action must be carried out with skill and competence, an evangelical scholar says.

Neither was on display last week when the State of Tennessee sought to execute convicted murderer Christa Pike.

Let's take a closer look.
