Young America's Foundation sponsored its "Summit on Radical Islam: Consequences of Appeasement in a Post-9/11 World" at the Reagan Ranch Center in Santa Barbara, California. The July 16-18 event, at which this blogger was the lead faculty member, brought together college students from across the country to learn about the radical Islamist agenda and how they can do their part to combat it.
In this video, I talk to the students about how we fought the far left, including those allied with the Soviet Communists, and applying our campus activist experiences of the 1980s to combating Islamist extremism on American colleges today. I address issues like fighting intimidation from the Islamist radicals and their friends, shining the light of truth on them to expose their ideology and intentions, building effective if unusual political alliances, using satire, and dividing and conquering.
