- The failure by the
social media networks to enforce the prevention of
terror-related content on their sites is, in fact, a direct
violation of the Antiterrorism Act and the Material Supply
Statutes; the general public is also in its right to have the
protections of the Community Decency Act of 1996 cover content
on social media.
- The conclusion is that
the social media companies are adopting an adversarial
case-by-case approach to enforcing a ban on terror incitement on
their platforms.
The nature of Islamic terrorism throughout the world
has changed in recent years. Alongside the established and organized
groups -- such as Hezbollah, Hamas, the Palestinian Islamic Jihad and
even ISIS -- a new and different type terror has been created, one
that is nourished ideologically, spiritually, and intellectually by
these groups, yet shows no connection -- organizationally or
operationally -- to them.
This terror is defined by what we refer to as
"lone wolves." These are individuals whose nationalistic
motives, religious incitement or psychological needs propel them to
commit acts of terror without being a member of an organized group or
cell. The one unifying aspect for all these lone wolves is social
media.

- Recent analyses by
experts on religious freedom cite the continued prejudicial
declarations against Christians, Jews and Western civilization
in Saudi educational textbooks as evidence that Saudi Arabia
still bears ill will against the "infidel" West.
- Saudi Arabia has
failed to meet agreed-upon deadlines to remove objectionable
language from educational texts.
- The current Saudi
Foreign Minister, Adel bin Ahmed al-Jubeir, seemed falsely to
imply that hateful language appears only in past, discontinued
textbooks and that current textbooks are being purged of any
offensive language.

U.S. President Donald Trump's May 2017 trip to Saudi
Arabia and his address to leaders of Islamic nations may open a new
era of cooperation between the United States and the world's leading
conservative Sunni Muslim states. Trump's trip, along with reported
warming relations between Israel and some Arab states, may suggest
that the initial stages of an anti-Iran, anti-terrorist alliance is
in the offing.
In Saudi Arabia, Trump forcefully denounced Iran's
support for terrorism. This speech was welcomed especially by Arabian
Peninsula Sunni state leaders, who could well be threatened by the
aggressive policies of Shia Iran in the Persian Gulf and the Levant.

- If the gang members
were "Asian," records were not kept. Such is the
cowardice and criminal negligence of the police involved.
- These Sharia courts
mean that the legal system of a foreign political ideology,
Islam, has created a parallel legal system in which Sharia is
placed above English common law. It is thought that some 30 to
85 Sharia courts are operating in England and Wales alone.
- "The Muslim
Brotherhood's foundational texts call for the progressive moral
purification of individuals and Muslim societies and their eventual
political unification in a Caliphate under Sharia law. To
this day the Muslim Brotherhood characterises Western societies
and liberal Muslims as decadent and immoral. It can be seen
primarily as a political project." — Prime Minister
David Cameron, 2014, regarding a report withheld from the public
[Emphases added].

children were sexually abused by a gang of Muslim men of Pakistani
descent. (Image source: Wikimedia Commons)
The United Kingdom, once an imperial power, now sounds
more like a colonial vassal. The actions of British government
officials suggest that the will of the government has collapsed in
the face of terrorist and ideological assaults by the forces of political
Islam. The ideology is being spread by, among others, the Muslims
Brotherhood, according to a major report of the British government
itself. A number of Muslim Brotherhood front groups have been
identified as such by government reports such as those of the United
Arab Emirates. These include the UK based Cordoba Foundation, the
Muslim Association of Britain, and Islamic Relief UK. All three of
these organization are listed as terrorist entities in the United
Arab Emirates as well.
