In Nigeria, the rest of Africa, and many regions around the world for that matter, the spread of Muslim rule has offered a brutal wakeup call regarding its legacy of slavery and massacre. It is incompatible with Western values, but is tolerated by the progressive liberal socialist left because they share the same enemies – colonialism, Judaism, and Christianity. Americans have been battling on our own social battlefields, so we have both lacked the will and the capability to address the blood-soaked grounds under the dark shadow spreading across the globe.

There were once truly successful African countries, but they succeeded when they practiced British politics and American economics. Botswana and South Africa were once economic powerhouses, but anti-colonialism and the desire to escape the horrors of Apartheid opened them up to change. But once those kinds of doors open the tendency of a people is to lurch radically in the opposite direction, which then welcomes ideologies like Islam and Communism which can take centuries to be cured from, if not longer. Along that anti-colonial path has risen ruthless powers that blame anything European on the woes of the country. Anti-Christian genocide, all too often, becomes mixed into the recipe to get away from European influences, despite the fact that Christianity is not truly a European religion as advertised. The first churches emerged in the Middle East and Africa before they began creeping into southeastern Europe and ultimately across the White Continent.

Nigeria is currently Africa’s demographic and economic giant, but teeters on the brink of collapse. It is torn apart along religious and ethnic lines by corruption and jihad. President Trump has set his eyes on Nigeria, after seemingly brokering an end to the fighting in Congo. But America cannot consider entering another game of regime change through military might. Iraq and Afghanistan both serve as bitter lessons when it comes to that line of thinking. But Islam and communism are a real threat in those regions, and the only thing that could turn those regions around, Christianity, is what is being targeted for termination.

The problem is, in Europe and even here in America, the war is also raging. Islam and communism are not happy to conquer regions. They both want to rule the world, and they have come together in a strange kind of alliance to make it happen. They have formed a Red/Green Alliance as written about by writer and investigative journalist James Simpson in his multiple books, and in the movies “Enemies Within” and “Enemies Within The Church” by Trevor Loudon. In America that war for the soul of The West has raised its Red/Green head in the candidacy of New York’s Zohran Mamdani. He admits he hates Capitalism. He’s a self-proclaimed socialist convincing a large swath of voters that the free market that transformed this country from frontier towns into a global superpower is our primary problem in America. While the economic system Karl Marx labeled Capitalism has lifted hundreds of millions out of poverty, built a middle class and fueled rapid technological innovation with outcomes impossible under socialist regimes, the same kind of voters who have chased after the pipedreams that have Europe imploding and fueled failed communist states are now screaming Commie Mamdani’s name and they are pushing for him to be the next mayor of New York City. But his profound anti-American rhetoric is not just some leftist ideology that is rooted in foreign influence and imported from the worst of America’s adversaries. We must be reminded he is also Muslim. He is a perfect example of Simpson’s “Red-Green Alliance.”

The rise of Mamdani’s Red-Green movement is not limited to the raging lefties of New York City, either. Senator Elizabeth Warren of Massachusetts was quick to publicly voice her support for the New York mayoral candidate back in August, praising the socialist’s communist........
