It is an Islamist objective to occupy and govern through Sharia law.

And it is administered by what they call a caliphate.

And it goes way back centuries

to periods of Islamic expansion.

And this is not, I wanna be clear, I'm not saying that this is necessarily an Islamic narrative.

It is an Islamist narrative.

And I think that's really important to clarify here because what we're talking about are very specific groups

who maintain this very radical ideology that at all costs, they will expand this caliphate of Sharia-governed territory into the West.

And in order to do that, all forms of governance that are in existence today and ways of life must go.

They cannot coexist.

And so that level of commitment, plus they've already demonstrated through precedence their willingness to hit us right in the chest cavity.

They want us in the fight.

They need us to be in the fight because that's how they bleed you from a thousand cuts.

So they're coming.

They're not afraid of our military might.

They're not intimidated at all.

And then the other piece that, to your original point, and I think this is really important to hash out,

You talked about when you hear some of these things that Sarah talks about or Legend or me, it's easy to go, well, okay, you guys were veterans, you fought in the war, the war's over, let's move on.

Because if there was a problem, the three-letter agencies would be talking about it or the administration.

But here's the thing, and this is really important to unpack.
