Please Help Us Keep Fighting for Your Liberty and Security?
Dear Friend,
Recent days have brought us sobering news. Internationally, the totalitarian leadership of North Korea continues to make violent threats against the U.S., just days after its first test of an intercontinental ballistic missile that could carry a nuclear warhead. Domestically, as neo-Nazis marched in Charlottesville, Virginia over the weekend, one of their group intentionally rammed his car into a crowd of anti-Nazi protesters, murdering one young woman and injuring 19 people.
Meanwhile, Iran is making use of the cash infusion of the tens of billions of dollars it received from the Obama administration, is openly threatening to accelerate its nuclear program, and is expanding its military presence across the Middle East — with especially worrying developments in Syria and Lebanon — as it keeps repeating “Death to America.”
A steady stream of Islamist terrorist attacks this year has resulted in many dead and wounded victims in Britain, the U.S., France, Germany and Israel.
The Western news media do their utmost to downplay — or totally ignore — these attacks. The media often describe the attackers as “mentally ill” and do their best to hide the terrorists’ Islamic identities. They instead report on various political scandals, real or imagined, and target concerned citizens who voice their opinions, as “racist” or “Islamophobic”.
Today the U.S. House of Representatives voted against studying Islamism. Rather than battle Islamist radicalism and terrorism, much of the Western political class and media seem to prefer waging a cultural war on their fellow citizens.
Gatestone Institute works around the clock to research, analyze and keep you informed about the threats we face today. Censorship by Google and Facebook continue to escalate, as do assaults on our free speech, physical security, and need to know. These information-blackouts can only have the most harmful long-term effects on our civilization.
Please help us by making make a tax-deductible contribution today, to help us sustain and grow Gatestone Institute’s community of experts and authors, ensuring that their vital work continues to make a significant impact.
Warmest,
Nina Rosenwald
President, Gatestone Institute
