Former Department of Defense official Rich Higgins knew America was losing the war on terror when a terrorist attacked the Pulse bar in Orlando, killing 49 people and injuring over 50.
Higgins’ sister-in-law asked him if he was doing all he could to fight this enemy after seeing the carnage of innocent life. Now, Higgins is taking considerable risk to speak truthfully about the lack of strategic policy in our government’s war on terror.
In this exclusive video interview with The Daily Caller News Foundation, the former Department of Defense official explains how Islamists are “weaponizing political correctness” and using narratives to collapse our understanding of the enemy and how to battle them.
His expertise is political warfare and developing strategies to battle against the ideologies and tactics used to carry out terror attacks.
Political warfare includes both non-violent and violent actions working in synthesis, Higgins says. The left, with enemy-friendly Muslim Brotherhood allies, is able to control the dominant cultural narrative with the media and the government, blinding us in the war on terror and impacting how Americans think, he argues.
Higgins calls for a “strategic and operational pause” in America’s misguided battle to stop the terror. He would, instead, ask new leadership to develop a comprehensive political warfare plan, while removing the subversive policies and personnel causing America to lose this paramount battle.
He cites the “purges” carried out by law enforcement and intelligence officials throughout government, which Phil Haney, Sebastian Gorka and Steve Coughlin have made public. (RELATED: Whistleblower: Islamic Groups Control Narrative Of American Law Enforcement)
The Orlando terrorist accomplished the enemy’s goals, Higgins said, as the massacre was the second most deadly attack on U.S. soil and now Americans are in such great fear they would willingly give up free speech or gun rights — thus benefitting the enemy.
Higgins calls for more whistleblowers to come to Congress, and for Congress to subpoena these truth-tellers because their jobs, families and pensions are at risk without a congressional subpoena.
