Failure to Respond to Terror Attacks in U.S. Will Only Bring More
Former Mayor of Shiloh, Israel, David Rubin has seen terrorism firsthand. He and his young son narrowly escaped brutal deaths at the hands of such terrorists. Rubin knows how they think and what drives them. One of those things is weakness. Appeasement is a recipe for failure and will only add more fuel to the terrorists’ bombs.
The threat from radical Islam starts in the Middle East. Radical Muslims like ISIS, Al Qaeda, Hamas, and Fatah take attempts to negotiate with them or send them “humanitarian aid” as a sign of weakness. To avoid American boots on the ground, Trump should give full backing to Israel in its war against these terrorist armies.
The tragic attacks in New Orleans and Las Vegas have left Americans reeling. The explosion of a Tesla outside the Trump Hotel and the horrifying car attack in New Orleans remind us of the vulnerabilities we face as a nation. Rubin knows all too well the devastating impact of terrorism—and the consequences of failing to respond decisively.
Rubin, a survivor of a brutal terrorist ambush that left him and his young son injured, has spent years studying and combating the roots of radical Islamist violence. His experiences on the frontlines of terrorism in Israel provide him with a unique and informed perspective on the recent U.S. attacks.
Rubin argues that terrorists interpret every sign of appeasement as weakness. Attempts to negotiate, send humanitarian aid, or avoid direct confrontation embolden groups like ISIS, Al Qaeda, Hamas, and Fatah. For America, failing to respond decisively to domestic attacks only invites further violence.
Rubin also stresses the importance of a strong U.S.-Israel alliance in combating global terrorism. He believes that providing full backing to Israel in its fight against radical Islamist forces would not only strengthen American interests abroad but also send a clear message to terrorists worldwide that the U.S. is not a nation to be trifled with.
Rubin is available to discuss:
- How radical Islamist groups perceive and exploit perceived weakness.
- Why a decisive response to terrorism is essential for national security.
- The critical role of U.S.-Israel cooperation in combating terrorism.
- Lessons America can learn from Israel’s approach to handling terrorist threats.
