It has been said there is a new sheriff in town in the person of President Donald Trump. Significantly, there is also a new general on the global battlefield to defeat ISIS and the broader threat of radical Islamic terror. That man is Secretary of Defense James Mattis. The retired four-star...

The attacks on June 3rd in London are only the latest events in a long and bloody world war. It is a war that is the defining conflict of the twenty-first century. It is a battle for the soul of Western civilization. The enemies in this war are the Islamists , radical Islamic jihadists who are...

It’s one of Europe’s most classic locations – and earlier today, it became the latest target of jihadist terror. Mere days after the latest coordinated terrorist attacks in London and Manchester that left dozens killed and even more injured, a jihadist struck again outside the Notre Dame Cathedral...

Each and every time another dastardly jihadist terrorist attack is inflicted on the world, headlines emerge that the savagery was carried out by a “lone wolf” terrorist. As a lawyer who deals in facts, the absurdity of this concept is beyond the pale. The mountain of evidence that has been amassed...

Last night, in the midst of a concert in Manchester, United Kingdom, an ISIS suicide bomber struck the heart of Europe, killing 22 innocent people and injuring dozens more. Our thoughts and prayers are with the people of the United Kingdom. A massive explosion ripped through a concert hall where an...

A gentlemen’s war was once fought at a meeting on the battlefield, standing face-to-face and barrel-to-barrel, as each soldier was shot down one by one. Where the victor was decided either by surrender, retreat, or whoever had the lowest body count at the battle’s end. Since then there has been an...

Yesterday the news broke that the wife of the Orlando terrorist, Omar Mateen, has been arrested on charges in connection with the jihadist attack that left 49 dead and more than 50 injured. It has been absurdly asserted for months – by President Obama and his leftist allies with their heads in the...

As the United States and the rest of the freedom-loving world face ever-increasing threats from jihadists, we often find ourselves debating one another about the true cause of radical Islamic jihadists. What causes someone to radicalize into a terrorist willing to inflict mass casualties, often...

This weekend marks the 15th anniversary of the 9/11 terrorist attacks. I’ll never forget. Fifteen years ago, jihadists bent on destroying America hijacked four planes and decimated thousands of lives – killing nearly three thousand Americans, injuring countless more. On that day, jihad changed all...

Forty-nine innocent people slaughtered in Orlando, FL. Slaughtered at the hand of a radical ideology that has expanded its reach far beyond the regional borders in which it physically wages war. Expanded not by use of conventional tactics, but through a new-world tactic, using a new-world weapon –

Recently, I spent part of an afternoon reading the latest edition of Dabiq , the full-color, glossy magazine published regularly by ISIS (the Islamic State). Named for a place in Syria that is supposedly going to be the location of the final apocalyptic battle after which the Islamic Caliphate will...

With the beheading of a French priest by members of the Islamic State (ISIS) still fresh in the minds of millions, ISIS is now following up that brutal assassination with a verbal assault aimed at Christians – calling Jesus “a slave of Allah” who will “wage jihad” upon returning to earth. This...

It is bewildering, puzzling and unbelievable. The pace, scope, and barbarity of the killing mounts every day. Forty-nine victims were murdered this past June in Orlando . More than eighty victims lost their lives in Nice this past month as part of a continuing terror campaign in which ISIS (the...

You’ve seen it all over the news, seemingly every day for months now – successful jihadist terror attacks around the world and foiled plots just down the street, like the one my colleague Matthew Clark recently described , where the FBI arrested a jihadist who lived just streets away from where we...

It’d be laughable if the consequences weren’t so deadly. Yesterday, during Day 1 of the Democratic National Convention, during 61 different speeches given from the podium in Philadelphia, ISIS and radical jihadist terrorism was not mentioned at all – not one reference. As Christians are...

With the “attack in Nice, France” that left 84 people dead and scores injured, we are again pointedly reminded that we are at war. Whether or not it is a declared war or if the Obama Administration acknowledges that we are at war, the facts speak for themselves. About every two weeks a jihadist...

Once again, the terrorists have attacked France. The carnage is ghastly. Last night, a terrorist attack ripped through Nice, France on Bastille Day – France’s independence day – slaughtering more than 84 people (including two Americans). Dozens more are injured as the death toll continues to rise.

The Obama Administration, in lockstep with groups like Muslim Advocates and CAIR, is hamstringing our ability as a nation to combat jihadist terror. How? By prohibiting the use of “offensive” religious, legal, and cultural terms like “jihad,” “sharia,” “takfir” or “umma.” That’s right. The...

Maybe he wasn’t literally next door, but this ISIS operative – his target, Washington, DC – lived just streets away from my family. My wife and kids shopped in the same grocery stores, the same Targets, the same Walmarts – as he planned his attack. Thankfully, the FBI just arrested him this...
