Washington Post: Obama’s Domestic Anti-Jihad Strategy has Failed

Barack Obama’s domestic anti-jihad strategy has failed to persuade Muslim communities, or Islamic political groups, to help suppress Islamic terrorism, The Washington Post admits.

The paper’s headline tried to feebly hide Obama’s failure behind a sliver of supposedly good news: “How a Muslim advocacy group in Florida is doing what the government has so far failed to do.”

The article repeatedly describes the failure of Obama’s anti-jihadi strategy to win support from hard-line Islamic political groups, or even the cooperation of mosque clerics who declare themselves to be legitimate political leaders of Muslims living inside the United States.

An FBI plan …  only heightened suspicions among some civil rights and Muslim community leaders … Meanwhile, in Boston, Los Angeles and Minneapolis, federal pilot programs announced in 2014 to prevent extremism have met such fierce resistance from local Muslims that the first two remain mired in the developmental stage. In Minneapolis, officials were compelled to change the program’s name from “Countering Violent Extremism” to “Building Community Resilience.”

The article ends up cheerleading for the creation of Muslim-run police-like groups in Muslim neighborhoods — which would be a big step toward the creation of self-segregating Islamic-run enclaves within the United States.

But the Post also distances Obama from his own failure — his surname is mentioned only once in the article, and the blame for his failure is shoved into the hands of the FBI, whose operations are handcuffed by Obama’s failed strategy, dubbed the “countering violent extremism” strategy.

That failed Obama strategy forces FBI officials to ignore Islam’s ideology– including its promise of divine rewards for jihad — when agents investigate jihadi plotters. Instead of developing their own cultural understanding and religious incentives, FBI official can only focus on secular actions — such as when a Muslim buys a gun, or aiding actual terror groups — when seeking arrest warrants. In effect, Obama’s CVE strategy forces the FBI to treat orthodox Muslims and pacifist Amish as similar threats, even as Obama rapidly grows the Muslim population in the United States.

In contrast, FBI officials investigating organized crime are allowed to consider the financial rewards for crime, such as suitcases of money.

The Washington Post also ignores the dictates of Islamic ideology, although some of the readers comments cite chapter-and-verse from Islam’s demands for killing and war.
