All the progress made by President Trump in the War on
Terror seems to have been magically erased by Joe Biden, as the Department of
Homeland Security issued a new terrorist threat alert on Friday, reports the Washington Times. According to
the report, DHS has detected “signs of life in al Qaeda ahead of the 20th
anniversary of the 2001 terror attacks.”
“The signs of life included the Islamist terrorist
organization issuing its first new magazine in more than four years,” reads the
report. “Homeland Security also reiterated its warnings over dangers stemming
from what it has come to call racially or ethnically motivated violent
extremists. It said that ‘increased societal strains’ during the coronavirus
pandemic may spur greater violence from those elements.”
Of course, Biden’s Department of Homeland Security won’t
link these signs of life to the Taliban’s nearly complete takeover of
Afghanistan, thanks to Biden’s withdrawal. Nope. COVID! Blame COVID! Joe Biden
even recently said he does not regret his decision to withdraw from
Afghanistan.
“The reopening of institutions, including schools, as
well as several dates of religious significance over the next few months, could
also provide increased targets of opportunity for violence though there are
currently no credible or imminent threats identified to these locations,” DHS
says.
Honestly, it’s amazing that Joe Biden’s Department of Homeland Security even cares. For months now, domestic “radical right-wing extremists” have appeared to be a bigger concern to them than Islamic terrorism. Yet, from where I sit, while the Biden administration has been focusing on throwing the book at anyone remotely connected to the January 6 Capitol riot, Islamic terrorists abroad have seized on the declining situation in Afghanistan, and they are taking full advantage of Biden’s planned withdrawal to come back stronger than ever.
But hey, there are a few conservative grannies who need
to be put behind bars, so… priorities, right?
In the almost twenty years since the 9/11 terror attacks,
we’ve had a wide range of success and failure, and between Obama’s presidency
and now Biden’s, they seem desperate to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory.
But hey, no more mean tweets, right?
