"The Enemy of My Enemy Is My Friend:" Time For Cops to Unite
/By: Eric Caron
The “enemy of my enemy is my friend” is an ancient proverb which suggests that two parties can, or should, work together against a common enemy. In America we have several entities colluding to overthrow our democracy including Iran, Al-Qaeda, ISIS, Black Lives Matter and ANTIFA. Their common enemy…”America the Beautiful.”
Iran, Al-Qaeda and ISIS continue to publish propaganda to discredit the United States and recruit and motivate U.S. citizens, including BLM and ANTIFA members, to accept their violent extremism and encourage terrorist attacks.
On May 27, 2020, the leader of Iran, Sayyid Khamenei, posted a video exploiting the death of George Floyd in Minneapolis two days earlier. He claimed African Americans are deprived of human rights, while dismissing Iran’s violations of civil liberties. The tweet accompanying the video stated, “If you’re dark-skinned walking in the US, you can’t be sure you’ll be alive in the next few minutes - #ICantBreathe #BlackLivesMatter.”
Al-Qaeda and ISIS continue to justify attacks by encouraging Western supporters to conduct attacks and target law enforcement personnel, exploiting U.S. social tensions. Their terror magazines and chat rooms criticize U.S. society by citing several high-profile deaths of young black men including Freddie Gray, a 25-year-old who died in police custody in Baltimore in April 2015. Al-Qaeda also claimed African Americans have more in common with them who are negatively portrayed by Western media and illegally targeted and arrested by racist U.S. government agents.
ANTIFA-affiliated members traveled to Syria to attend military training and fought for various
Kurdish factions including; but not limited to: Syrian Democratic Forces, Democratic Federation of Northern Syria and PKK (Kurdistan Workers’ Party) an organization designated as a terrorist organization by the United States. In October 2017, a U.S. citizen in Northern Syria fighting with a PKK-aligned organization posted on an anarchist website seeking funds to return to the U.S. The individual wanted to return home to continue “organizing with the political tools and lessons'' learned. The funds raised would be used for travel and any unused funds would be “funneled” to Kurdish solidarity or ANTIFA efforts.
Politicians and organizations supporting BLM and ANTIFA are aiding and abetting terror entities publicly chanting, “death to America''. Their actions are in solidarity with Iran, ISIS and Al-Qaeda. The enemies of America, both foreign and domestic, have joined together and now we must all stand for our freedoms. “In the End, we will remember not the words of our enemies, but the silence of our friends” - Martin Luther King, Jr.
Stay “Switched On” America.
