How American Investors Fund The Islamofascists In Iran

The war against Jihadist terrorism is the defining issue of our time. For more than 25 years America has been attacked—and continues to be attacked—by Jihadist terrorist groups bent on the destruction of our way of life. This war is different than any war in our history and we must fight on fronts on which we have never fought before—geographically, ideologically, and practically.

One of those fronts is the financial front. Terrorism costs money. Nuclear weapons components cost money too. America must do all it can to cut off the funding of our sworn enemies in Tehran. Unfortunately, right now, not only are we largely failing to cut off that funding, but we are actually unwittingly and indirectly funding our terrorist enemies who are hell bent on building nuclear weapons. This must stop.

Average investors in pensions and mutual funds whose investors include police, sheriff deputies, firefighters, and first responders, are unwittingly investing in companies that provide critical hard currency, political security blankets, and dual use technology to states, particularly Iran, threatening American security interests. In addition, companies our universities own through their endowments are providing large scale flows, advanced technologies, equipment and expertise to governments like that of Iran which support terrorism and have active nuclear weapons programs. Without the trade of these companies, the Ayatollahs might be hard-pressed to meet their nations’ basic requirements, let alone fund terrorist groups and build ballistic missiles and nuclear weapons.
