Islam

Jihad is permanent & relentless

Islam is a revolutionary faith that comes to destroy any government made by man. Islam doesn’t look for a nation to be in better condition than another nation. Islam doesn’t care about the land or who own the land. The goal of Islam is to rule the entire world and submit all of mankind to the faith of Islam. Any nation or power in this world that tries to get in the way of that goal, Islam will fight and destroy.

Secretary of State Marco Rubio is cutting through one of the most persistent misunderstandings in American foreign policy thinking: the idea that radical Islam has territorial ambitions that can be satisfied, contained, or negotiated down to a manageable province.

Every major radical Islamic movement, Rubio argues, identifies the same enemy: “𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘞𝘦𝘴𝘵 𝘸𝘳𝘪𝘵 𝘭𝘢𝘳𝘨𝘦, 𝘣𝘶𝘵 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘜𝘯𝘪𝘵𝘦𝘥 𝘚𝘵𝘢𝘵𝘦𝘴 𝘪𝘯 𝘱𝘢𝘳𝘵𝘪𝘤𝘶𝘭𝘢𝘳, 𝘢𝘴 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘨𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘵𝘦𝘴𝘵 𝘦𝘷𝘪𝘭 𝘰𝘯 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘦𝘢𝘳𝘵𝘩.” This is not a fringe reading of radical Islam’s stated goals. It is the explicit, documented, repeated declaration of every significant movement in that tradition — from al-Qaeda to H∗mas to H∗zbollah to the Islamic Republic of Iran.

Rubio points to the progression: radical Islam has designs openly on Europe as well as the United States, and the continent has already seen that progression in real time through terrorism, political pressure, and demographic change.

Iran is the most important piece of this picture. Tehran gives the radical Islamic project something most terrorist movements have never had: 𝐚 𝐧𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧-𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐭𝐞, 𝐚 𝐦𝐢𝐥𝐢𝐭𝐚𝐫𝐲, 𝐚 𝐦𝐢𝐬𝐬𝐢𝐥𝐞 𝐚𝐫𝐬𝐞𝐧𝐚𝐥, 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐨𝐮𝐫𝐜𝐞𝐬 𝐭𝐨 𝐟𝐮𝐧𝐝 𝐚𝐬𝐬∗𝐬𝐬𝐢𝐧𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐜𝐚𝐦𝐩𝐚𝐢𝐠𝐧𝐬 𝐚𝐠𝐚𝐢𝐧𝐬𝐭 𝐖𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐧 𝐭𝐚𝐫𝐠𝐞𝐭𝐬 𝐨𝐧 𝐖𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐧 𝐬𝐨𝐢𝐥.
 
Without Iran, the global reach of this movement is constrained. With Iran, it has a government-level platform.
