President-elect Trump issued statements regarding today’s series of terrorist attacks; the first being the assassination of the Russian diplomat to Turkey, the second in Berlin, when a Pakistani refugee killed 12 people and injured 48 after driving into a crowd of holiday shoppers, and the third took place in Zurich after a shooting in a mosque.
Today there were terror attacks in Turkey, Switzerland and Germany – and it is only getting worse. The civilized world must change thinking!

Trump’s official tweet was followed official statements regarding the Turkey and Berlin attacks:
Let that sink in:
Islamic terrorists continually slaughter Christians in their communities and places of worships as part of the global jihad…
…These terrorists and their regional and worldwide networks must be eradicated from the face of the earth…
Bold and refreshing language from the man who will be president of the United States in a month. Trump also acknowledges Christians shopping for Christmas without censoring his language to be “inclusive” or politically correct. Sure is nice to have a president with a pair of balls. Mad Dog Mattis is gonna be one busy bringer of death if this is Trump’s opening salvo in his war on terror.
Reactions from around the web:
#Terrorist who assassinated #Russian ambassador to #Turkey was a policeman. #Erdogan purged secular police chiefs & replaced with #Islamists

Here's hoping Andrei Karlov isn't the 21st century's Franz Ferdinand. #Turkey

Note that there are more than a few people wondering why the Turkey shooting was so “clean.”

My thoughts & condolences are w/ the people of #Germany following tonight's terrible tragedy in #Berlin, leaving so many dead & injured.

Boris Johnson called #BerlinAttack a "terrible tragedy". Its not a terrible tragedy, it is a war on the West, declared by Islam. Wake up.

Yup, only Christians shop for Christmas. Guess that excludes all non-Christians who were buying Xmas gifts for Christian friends and family members. That damn war on Christmas. Can’t remember the last time I saw a Christmas tree, Christmas lights, any images of Santa Claus, Christmas specials on TV, etc. Christmas whiners are the biggest snowflakes. Jeeez.
Interesting thing about Trump’s message was that he used the words “radical Islamic terrorists” rather than Muslim terrorists. He also used the words “freedom-loving partners” which can’t include Russia.
Scott Adams seems to think the war with ISIS should/will be a persuasion war.
To win, we need to break the framing by which the radicalized think their actions are justified.
Disrupt the communication and reach and spread of message that is persuading recruiters.
Counter the persuasion with some of our own.
Disrupt or alter the drug supply that is altering their state of consciousness.
Since it’s not easy to reach the attention and minds of ISIS, he can influence the physical region.
By creating “safe zones” for woman and children ISIS can be isolated from spreading their ideas to the youth and future, reduce the number of offspring ISIS can have.
Assuming that we can hold these zones off from attack/infiltration, ISIS will have to resort to other means to try to recruit and persuade and if we can successfully “wall off” their communications and cell towers, it will be more difficult for ISIS to recruit without exposing themselves.
I think this is a good start but may not be enough, or may take longer than people would hope. I think the next step would be dealing with the rise outside of the areas in the middle east. That’s an enormous task that is easy to underestimate. How many members of ISIS are effectively “sleeper agents” just waiting to exploit a vulnerability when it arises?
How do we fight an invisible enemy that could be anywhere, and could pop up at anytime, that has a more persuasive case everytime you kill them, and that leverages a radical component of one of the world’s largest religions?

The era of libtards is over. Men will get the fist while woman will get the slap. Like it was always supposed to be. Back to fucking normal.
