Few things are more confusing than watching a Pride parade where LGBTQ participants carry signs that support Islamic causes and candidates. We struggle to understand how the secular progressive movement has joined forces with radical Islamists given the seemingly unbridgeable chasm in philosophy about women’s rights, LGBTQ status and religion in general.
A October 17, 2026 article by Kelsey Reinhardt at Zeal.co really unpacks the mystery. I’ll try to summarize; please read the whole article.
At 1400 years old, Islam is the dominant religious and political force for 2 billion people; Christianity has always been its primary opposition. By means of the sword and persuasion with stubborn pressure, Islam has been extremely successful at replacing Christianity in Turkey, North Africa, Asia Minor and many other places. By the year 750, fully 50% of Christians lived under Muslim rule. By 1500, Asia Minor was 92% Muslim.
What we are seeing today in the West (Western Europe, North America) is the natural result of Islam moving in to occupy the vacuum created by the abandonment of Christian principles that were foundational to the creation of the countries affected: the rule of law, freedom of religion, personal responsibility, the pursuit of happiness, primacy of conscience, and representative government.
This is not a dramatic military showdown, rather the beginning stages of a decades-long transformation to Islam. The pattern and historical record are undeniable.
But what explains the strange partnership with secular progressives? Despite previously described foundational differences, the two entities share a need to undermine order, capitalism, liberal, Democratic and Republican government, Christianity and Zionism. Former Muslim Ayaan Hirsi sums it up like this: “We have a left that needs votes, an Islamist aligned network that can deliver, and a culture that treats any scrutiny of the arrangement as bigotry.”
At 1.2 % of the adult population, Muslim adults seem like a small portion of voters, however, a very high percentage are registered to vote, and of those, 80% do, and mark their ballots according to direction from their leadership!
Thus we see secular progressives and Muslims voting as a bloc and hijabs, keffiyahs, and pride flags marching side by side. The coalition is willing to overlook the irreconcilable differences that divide them in order to achieve the mutual goal of dismantling the West and Christian values.
This explains the partnership and the rise of politicians to power that a few years ago would have been unthinkable.
Dear friends, we Americans have come to a critical early phase of a process that will destroy America … Unless We The People stop it.
God Bless until next time, Jeff.
