Trump aide Gorka says no such thing as ‘lone-wolf’ attack
[IsraelTimes] US president’s assistant claims there has never been ’serious’ terrorism unconnected from Islamic State or al-Qaeda

Sebastian Gorka, a deputy assistant to the US president, said Tuesday that there is no such thing as a "lone-wolf" terror attack, and that the phrase was invented by the previous administration to "make Americans stupid."
This. This is why Donald Trump was elected.
Speaking with MSNBC, Gorka claimed that "there has never been a serious attack or a serious plot that was unconnected from ISIS," referring to the Islamic State terror group, "or al-Qaeda."
Watch the news media melt down over this tomorrow as they point out that Hizb-ut-Tahrir and Lashkar e-Taiba aren't either one, at which point people who actually know something about the subject will point out that they trade personnel and otherwise offer support to one another.
Gorka was asked how US President Donald Trump
...New York real estate developer, described by Dems as illiterate, racist, misogynistic, and what ever other unpleasant descriptions they can think of, elected by the rest of us as 45th President of the United States...
plans to prevent "lone-wolf lunatics" from carrying out attacks around the world even if the main IS organization is destroyed.

"There’s no such thing as a lone wolf," he replied. "That was a phrase invented by the last administration to make Americans stupid."

Gorka further claimed that every single terror attack was in some way connected to IS or al-Qaeda. "At least through the ideology and the... tactics, the training, the techniques and the procedures that they supply through the internet," he said.

When pressed on how the administration plans to stop individuals from carrying out attacks, he said that the use of language was important.

"You cannot solve a problem unless you’re allowed to talk truthfully about it," he said. "So we will call it radical Islamic terrorism, we will target the ideology and we will call them out for being evil and we will work with our Moslem partners."

He also said that the way to defeat terror was to "delegitimize" its ideology, so that nobody would want to be associated with it, just like Nazism today.

"What we have to do now is not only destroy organizations like ISIS, which we are doing -- they will be annihilated -- but also delegitimize the ideology," he said. "So it will become as heinous and as rejected as fascism
...a political system developed in Italy symbolized by the Roman fasces -- thin reeds, each flimsy in itself but unbreakable when bound into a bundle. The word is nowadays thrown around by all sorts of people who have no idea what they're talking about...
and Nazism is today."

The show’s hosts also asked Gorka why the president had not yet condemned Saturday’s bombing of a Minneapolis mosque. Gorka said it was too early to apportion blame, and the administration was taking a "wait and see" approach.

But, he said, "when we have some kind of finalized investigation, absolutely," the president will condemn it.

The FBI has said that the kaboom at the Dar al-Farooq Islamic Center in Bloomington was caused by an "improvised bomb."

However,
a poor excuse is better than no excuse at all...
Gorka claimed that many alleged right-wing hate crimes turned out to have been carried out by left-wing activists, and that nobody should rush to judgment.

When challenged that Trump had been quick to condemn a London terror attack in June before police had declared it to be a terrorist attack, Gorka replied that sometimes it is obvious.

"Sometimes an attack is unequivocally clear for what it is," he said. "When somebody shouts Allahu Akbar as they’re stabbing a police officer, it’s pretty clear it’s not a case of the mafia robbing a bank, wouldn’t you say so?"

#1 A pack's on the prowl, praying pronely;
Lost lambs, irreligious and lonely,
Though all seem to crack
The same book, then attack,
As, "Lone wolves!" howl the sheeple. If only.

#2 A refreshing statement, that will vanish under an avalanche of posturing on Google and Russia

#3 The globalist Illuminati will make sure this doesn't get reported and Gorka becomes suddenly suicidal or suddenly kiddy pr0n shows up on his computer.
