Ep. 2514 - The UK Terror Plot, Explained
Summary
Ben Shapiro argues that the UK government’s “suicidal” left-wing policies have led to a failed terrorist plot against an RAF base and the asylum of a former Hamas bodyguard. He criticizes the West for importing radical Islamists while ignoring security threats, contrasting this with the Trump administration’s successful economic blockade of Iran. The episode also covers the Democratic Party’s shift toward radical leftist and pro-Palestinian litmus tests, highlighting the election of Abdul Rahman El-Sayed in Michigan and the debate over Israel’s conduct in Gaza.
