Marxism and Islamism Are Making Our System Blink Red—and Green

By the summer of 2001, “The system was blinking red” from threats related to Osama Bin Ladin and al-Qaeda. These included known planning and training for hijacking airplanes. That is the testimony that then-CIA Director George Tenet told the National Commission on Terrorist Attacks Upon the United States. The 9/11 Commission preserved Tenet’s statement in its final report.

All of these tactics are in addition to the AI, economic, energy, international organization, maritime, and military investments and influence the CCP has waged around the world to bring other nations closer to China and away from the U.S.

CIA contractor psychologist James Mitchell interrogated KSM after his 2003 capture and recounted their conversations in his 2016 book, “Enhanced Interrogation.” KSM told Mitchell that no more catastrophic attacks were........
