(1) The level of Radical Islamic Terrorism in Europe & North America has markedly decreased since Obama left office, but still flares up here & there.

The killing of 3 innocents in Nice, France, is linked to the antisemitism & anti-Christian narratives of Turkey's Erdogan.

(2) The usual outlets eg BBC, NYT etc ran the same pro-terrorist narratives they always do. So I looked elsewhere for info about the attack. I found it at this Australian outlet:

greekcitytimes.com/2020/10/29/ter…

(3) From the story:

"This latest attack in France happened amid increasing tensions with Turkey.

Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan has invented a crisis by portraying Ankara as a “defender” against France’s “Islamophobia.” "

(4) "French President Emmanuel Macron has defended Charlie Hebdo’s cartoons that are offensive to Muslims, particularly one that portrays Muhammed, the founder of Islam. Portraying Muhammed is considered blasphemy in Islam."

(5) "Although the cartoon [is from] 2012, it came back to the forefront of international attention after Chechen-born Abdoullakh Anzorov, who lived most of his life & was radicalized in France, beheaded school teacher Samuel Paty on Oct 16 for showing the image in his class."

(6) "Rather than condemning the beheading, Erdoğan instead opted to try and create an uprising in the Islamic World against France’s famous secularism and freedom of expression that is protected by the 1789 Declaration of Human and Civil Rights."

(7) "Turkey instead compared European Muslims to Jews before the Holocaust & called for a boycott of French goods."

IMO Erdogan is one of the world's loudest inciters of antisemitism & hatred of Jews, Christians & religious pluralism. His words lead to the killing of innocents.

(8) We need to remember what it was like under Obama, when certain kinds of terrorism were far more prevalent than they are now. Especially if you are still deciding whether to vote for Trump or not.

The chance of vote rigging exists. Every vote matters.

(9) Without fanfare, Trump has released the law enforcement and policy power of the federal government to go after terrorist networks and reduce their ability to harm innocents.

If Democrats win this election, that all disappears.

(10) It has taken nearly four years of hard work behind the scenes, but the growing number of peace agreements between Israel and former enemy countries were only possible thanks to the Trump administration.

Lives have been saved all over the world, and in the US.

(11) To me, supporting Trump and the now-reformed Republican party was an easy decision.

Reality-based principles like #PeaceThroughStrength and being tough on #LawAndOrder are making America safe again.

We need at least #FourMoreYears of this.
