As a Marine, John Bennett's survival, and the welfare of his unit depended on knowing the threats they were surrounded by. During two deployments in the most radicalized parts of Iraq, Bennett ambitiously sought a thorough understanding of the Islamic doctrine, worldview, and manifesto.
Later, while serving in the Oklahoma legislature, Bennett sought to equip law enforcement agencies with a full understanding of the dangers of a radicalized religious terror threat. Since retiring from both the Marines and the Oklahoma Legislature, Bennett is now actively providing this knowledge base and national resources for law enforcement throughout the region. Bennett collaborates with the former Asst. Secretary of Defense, Frank Gaffney. Gaffney heads up the Center for Security Policy (CSP). The think tank collects data and provides the information to state & local govt. Bennett recently presented an updated review of the threat from radicalized organizations who draw their resources from terror networks. |

An hour north, in a college town(St. Cloud) of 70,000; the liberal former governor, Mark Dayton, coordinated the importation of about 15,000 Somalis. Most of them were helped by Lutheran Social Services & Catholic Charities. We walked the streets of what St. Cloud residents call "Little Somalia". The Somalis do not exhibit any of the typical expressions that other political refugees and asylum seekers normally do. There is an open defiance of American culture and often open hostility toward the people that Garrison Keillor spend decades talking about in his weekly radio show, Prairie Home Companion. (St. Cloud was that worldly college town that Lake Wobegon parents feared would corrupt the youth).
We were there in 2016, just a few days before a lone Somali operative went on a stabbing spree at the local shopping mall. He stabbed 10 victims before a concealed-carry instructor shot & killed him. Fox News details the serious problems in Minnesota.
