Secure Freedom Minute: “Willful Blindness” about Sharia-Supremacism at 30 – and Counting

Thirty years ago today, Sharia supremacists attacked New York City’s World Trade Center, narrowly missing its destruction, ultimately wrought by one of the perpetrators’ uncle, Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, on 9/11 eight years later.
