Islamic fundamentalism

But the politics of West probably was such that not only the United States, but also in Europe, especially Europe, was that because of the economic interests, they tried to contain the Iranian regime.

However, in 1993, we published a book called Islamic Fundamentalism, The New Global Threat, where it was articulated that we have to, the Western world has to deal with the Ayatollahs in Iran, otherwise it's going to be chaotic.

And now you see the result.

That's who I am.

I should be finding common ground with them because we all share this contractual obligation called the US Constitution, right? And when you look at it from that frame, and again i represent the voter and not a political party the republican party is just as cooked as the democrats are so the republicans were just given a massive mandate to come in and fix the country and we can go deep into what exactly that means it means a lot more than what trump has been doing over the last two years and the numbers show that americans think that the the americans that matter that are going to be the swing electorate do not think that trump understood the assignment essentially right and so what do you see the republican establishment all of a sudden saying well all the democrats are socialists and they're evil and they want to put you in a ditch and shoot you and we have to deport every single muslim in america because islam isn't like this country was founded on freedom of religion you know like let's Let's be real.

That doesn't mean that Sharia law should circumvent the Constitution, but we have law enforcement for that, right? And so everyone, oh, Islamic fundamentalism is our number one problem in America.

No, it's not.

economic wealth concentration on oligarchy power is by far our number one issue.
