In Their Own Words:
We reiterate once again that the brigades will directly target US bases across the region in case the US enemy commits a folly and decides to strike our resistance fighters and their camps [in Iraq].
Mar. 2023According to press reports Abdul Razak Ali Artan’s terror rampage was memorialized in a Facebook posting in which the terrorist cited ISIS as his motivation, and the YouTube sermons of Anwar al-Awlaki as his inspiration. Last June I issued an urgent call to action in the HuffPost for Google/YouTube to pro-actively remove from its platform the vile, vindictive radical Islamic sermons of al-Awlaki which are directly complicit in the murder of innocent Americans. The Counter Extremism Project (CEP) - headed by former Amb. Mark Wallace - has supported the development of “eGlyph” technology, software developed by Dr. Harry Farid of Dartmouth College - which uses “robust hashing” across all social media platforms to analyze images, videos and audio, to flag - very quickly and accurately - radical Islamic extremist content.
Extremists: Their Words. Their Actions.

I am terribly sad. Throughout my professional and personal life, whenever I was unsure of what to say or think, my friend, the Senator, was always there. He had a unique gift for finding the right words to match any feeling or emotion, often with humor, a smile, and laughter. Now, as I write this without his guidance and kind wisdom, I feel his absence deeply. Having the Senator by my side was one of life's greatest gifts to me, and I know I'm not alone in feeling profoundly touched by him. That was the Senator's great gift—he touched and guided so many of us, either personally or through his example. --Ambassador Mark D. Wallace
