The Daily Beast characterizes his departing comments as “slamming” and “unloading on” President Obama’s foreign policy, which Flynn sees as a timid, confused, politicized approach to a global threat that should be met with a Cold War-style campaign against an enemy as committed to “the destruction of freedom and the American way of life” as the Soviet Union ever was.

The Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), a Hamas-derived unindicted terrorism financing coconspirator, recently demonstrated that there is more than one way to implement Sharia. CAIR’s feigned lofty concern for free speech following Paris’ Charlie Hebdo massacre is part of a duplicitous strategy seeking to impose non-violently Muslim blasphemy norms while deflecting any criticism of Islam.
