Decisive action against the Palestinian jihad and those who aid and abet it at the United Nations. We have gone from living in a dark cave for eight years to stepping suddenly into the bright sunlight.
“Trump Prepares Orders Aiming at Global Funding and Treaties,” by Max Fisher, New York Times, January 25, 2017:
WASHINGTON — The Trump administration is preparing executive orders that would clear the way to drastically reduce the United States’ role in the United Nations and other international organizations, as well as begin a process to review and potentially abrogate certain forms of multilateral treaties.
The first of the two draft orders, titled “Auditing and Reducing U.S. Funding of International Organizations” and obtained by The New York Times, calls for terminating funding for any United Nations agency or other international body that meets any one of several criteria.
Those criteria include organizations that give full membership to the Palestinian Authority or Palestine Liberation Organization, or support programs that fund abortion or any activity that circumvents sanctions against Iran or North Korea. The draft order also calls for terminating funding for any organization that “is controlled or substantially influenced by any state that sponsors terrorism” or is blamed for the persecution of marginalized groups or any other systematic violation of human rights.
The order calls for then enacting “at least a 40 percent overall decrease” in remaining United States funding toward international organizations.
The order establishes a committee to recommend where those funding cuts should be made. It asks the committee to look specifically at United States funding for peacekeeping operations; the International Criminal Court; development aid to countries that “oppose important United States policies”; and the United Nations Population Fund, which oversees maternal and reproductive health programs.
If President Trump signs the order and its provisions are carried out, the cuts could severely curtail the work of United Nations agencies, which rely on billions of dollars in annual United States contributions for missions that include caring for refugees….
“If President Trump signs the order and its provisions are carried out, the cuts could severely curtail the work of United Nations agencies…” Let’s hope so!

Don McKellar says
Can’t keep up with this epic President! This is his first week! Every day it’s a bunch of bold, strong moves. He’s done as much as Obama in eight years — and unlike Barry, all of Trump’s accomplishments are for for GOOD and to advance the prosperity and safety of America. Incredible.
concerned canadian says
its inspiring isnt it.
I have to share this though Don.
I posted these simple words to Facebook concerning his inauguration,.
I said ” Inspiring ! God Bless America & Trump from Canada. Please rebuild Detroit !!”
I got lambasted by a couple of people.
Then a couple of people blasted them back.
It became such a train wreck that I canceled facebook.
now these people are being real nice to me via text messages.
Strange times.

Also see my comment in this earlier article (https://www.jihadwatch.org/2016/07/video-robert-spencer-exposes-cairs-cynical-and-deceptive-islamophobin-campaign) where I reiterate Robert Spencer’s easy “5 point plan” by which Muslims can easily end all “Islamophobia.”
And you know you could always search Jihad Watch using the words: Dum Spiro says vanish …

john spielman says
yup,our Justin Bieber Trudeau, is a TWIT, at least he isn’t as dangerous a twit like the Obamanation, who sat in the Oval office, was!
Trudeau is so naive about islam, and like many progressives, he suffers from that socialist degenerative brain disorder that, left untreated, WILL LEAD TO HIM BECOMING A BLITHERING IDIOT like the Obamantion! He needs repeated reality reorientation and must read JIHAD WATCH daily to try and prevent this from getting worse!
Islam the religion of killers says
Surely Trudeau has some advisors that have some idea of the reality in the world, it’s not like Islam is secret and nobody knows whats going on…
Trudeau must have people that advise him for both sides of an argument,
All the pointers and deeds of Obama indicate he is a closet muslim, so his treachery is understandable , but Trudeau just seams to be a babbling idiot..
(do you think his wife knows)

It is awesome – and I do think of President Donald Trump as awesome.
Shows he really does care about Americans – and keeps his words!
A refreshing change from Hussein Obama and company.
gravenimage says
Agreed, Don.
A Harris USA says
Don, my words exactly!! He is rolling down the track full steam ahead.. LOVE IT!!! Can’t get enough of the libtard whining and hand wringing, and I just love it.. Best part of the last week, seeing the Muslim in the white hut, check out forever!!!
Keep going President Trump, we love your bold, and American policies.. No more money to terrorist organizations, NOT one dime of our money!!
Dum Spiro says
I have to keep pinching myself to make sure all this isn’t just some pleasant dream!
Keep making America great again, President Trump…

Thanks Obama, you, and the almost inevitable possibility of a Clinton presidency have brought about the strongest Republican party in History. Go Trump, God bless America.
TR says
Terrific! What a relief to have President Trump calling the shots.
Ironic how the Radical Left summons a Woman’s March led by a Jihadi to protest President Trump.
Now today standing here in the sunlight we read The US will no longer admit those who practice violence towards women. The marching fools voted for a woman, Hillary, wanting to flood our country with those who practice honor killings and suppression of women and hostility defend their religious sharia right to do so.
God Bless Donald Trump, we in our community, are all impressed.
Tjhawk says
This is a good step. I think the abortion component muddies the waters and might cause difficulties that won’t help the jihad resistance. The North Korea component won’t cause nearly as many problems because it is kind of related and not nearly as divisive. I wish it was more focused, but I’ll take it.
Guest says
I also ” think the abortion component muddies the waters” because maternal health and birth control are important and don’t need to be mixed up with abortion. Sensible pro-lifers are also pro birth control, and encouraging developing countries to use birth control is the only sane way to halt overpopulation. Here are the stats re pro-life being pro-contraception: http://www.slate.com/blogs/saletan/2014/01/15/do_pro_lifers_oppose_birth_control_polls_say_no.html
Whether or not US tax payers should be paying for that birth control is another issue.
Carolyne says
I really don’t object to the US helping with
birth control. I strenuously object to my taxes going toward killing babies. Abortions are not a legitimate means of birth control and have nothing to do with women’s health except harm. All money to the UN should be stopped anyway and the whole organization should be evicted from their tax free facilities in New York.
common sense says
I knew President Trump would follow through. I truly had no doubts the excpetion being unknown baggage from the past that the enemy would use to try and bring him down. Congress needs to pass his imigration orders into law. I’d really like to see them enact legislation that would make these orders law that won’t be undone by some future bozo pres.
74% of CA polled DO NOT want sanctuary cites or counties in this state. Also forget Calexit I actually want back in the United States at this point. LOL sorta……
A Harris USA says
As a 3ed generation Californio I just laugh at these whining idiots!! My first question, what will the nation of California use for money??? Grapes, weed, maybe in my area avocados!!! LMAO.. These fools are so stupid they have never addressed that topic!! Not part of USA, no US currency!!! LMAO
Islam the religion of killers says
Withdraw all federal funding, then see the change in whining pitch, California is bankrupt already so to start pulling those sorts of stunts will only make it worse,,,, much much worse,,,,
At the pace Trump has on right now by the time we get to week three the Californians will be begging to come back ….
What the F do actors know about politics other than there’s lots of shouting,,
See Madonna is so passionate about her cause of burning down the white house she has to read cue cards …… (don’t make me laugh)
Voytek Gagalka says
Long, long overdue. But better late than not at all. President Trump steps are truly revolutionary if implemented. But we should not kid ourself: they will be fiercely opposed in certain circles. Good luck, President Trump!

Yes, in the entire MSM, world-wide. As was Trump – yet he won. Somehow people are getting his messages without the MSM spin and lies.

Nice to see that my country has re-discovered its backbone. Thank you, President Trump. Keep us standing straight and tall.
copakeman says
This is a great first step toward ending our membership in the in and ending the UN itself.
Dexter L. Wilson says
Thank God, it is about time. The UN has a law that says if a nation is attacked, it was supposed to get and keep the land they were able to retrieve. It seems the UN will not and cannot follow its own regulations when it come to Israel. The First War they gave land back to Egypt and did not have to. Jordan had stolen land from Israel they were not supposed to have in the first place. So when Israel was again attacked by the Arab nations in 1967 they took the Temple Mound and All of Jerusalem. What is the prayer the Israeli’s prayed for centuries at Passover? Next year in Jerusalem. It is High time that they forced the Arab countries to take the Palestinians and let Israel have the land they are OCCUPYING.
Champ says
Exactly, Dexter–bravo!!
Wellington says
President Trump is doing much good and he’s still only in his first week of office——-and the Left is in hysterics so I’m doubly pleased.
Mark Swan says
Absolutely, compared to the way we were going, this seems to be that new way we all hoped for.
gravenimage says
Wellington and Mark, I have been *very* cautious in my expectations–so far, save the Imam speaking at the inauguration–which was no doubt set up by someone else–Trump’s every move in the past week has exceeded anything I had hoped to see in the first six months.
Mark Swan says
One thing for certain gravenimage, Mr. Trump is not boring, it is action that produces
results—let us hope for the best.
gravenimage says
So far, Mark, there is actually increasing evidence that hoping for the best is actually pretty reasonable–I am *very* heartened.

Alpo says
President Trump truly s the savior of the USA, I’m so happy for you all.
The UN should simply be buried and replaced with a much more proper organization. I believe that President Trump has mentioned something towards that, and such a move would indeed make the Muslim infested UN totally obsolete.
Certainly the “at least a 40 percent overall decrease” is a good start, but it affects only to the additional or voluntary funding that U.S.A. is paying.
Richie says
I have to admit- before the election I thought Pres Trump was another Mitt Romney- a moderate pretending to be on the right to get votes- but my goodness, Pres Trump is following through with his promises. If he stays true he may rank as one of the best presidents in years
He must recruit Robert Spencer to work with the FBI
Mark Swan says
You are right Richie
If our National Security people are allowed to do their jobs now—they may make a concerted
effort to cull the so called advisors who are hindering them and when they look around for
effective alternatives they could certainly view Mr. Spencer as a valuable expert.
gravenimage says
Agreed, Richie. I though if Trump carried out–or even tried to carry out–a tenth of what he had talked about, that he would be vastly superior to the alternative, and the past eight years.
I have to admit that I never thought he’d roll up his sleeves and do so much in his *first week*. Just amazing.

Yes–I completely agree!! Perfectly stated.
I absolutely love President Trump. He is a great leader who’s already making America great again!

Baucent says
Yes, great times. I read the news daily with a smile on my face. Chuckling away at the hysterics of the Left and media over everything Trump says or does.
Peter says
Trump is one of the smartest presidents we had in ages probably since Ab Lincoln ,George Washington and Thomas Jefferson .I wish he had the communication skills of those great presidents! I agree you should make use of smart people like Spencer who can articulate their thoughts excellently! Trump is a fresh breath of air in these days when political correctness,timidity and hypocrisy rules.

That’s exactly what it is like. I had been *very* cautious in my expectations–but so far they are being exceeded every day. Here we are, just six days into the Trump presidency–just amazing!

Waiting for Trump to properly address UNRWA.
Michael Ray says
Every day President Trump does something sane and remarkable. And every time the lefty piggies squeal and run about. So many kinds of joy at the same time. This is dizzying.
stan lee says
As the nations of the EU become weak where Israel is involved, and where the present French government seeks to trap Israel in a French-type appeasement, Trump arrived just in time to muscle France and Germany out of the way and Trump stands tall for Israel. The EU would sell-out the Israelis and capitulate to the Arabs who have been encouraging Palestinians to live for Jihad against Israel, while Arab nations look askance and say “Who……me?” Arabs always talk highly of “brotherhood.” Do they mean “The Muslim Brotherhood?” I think that group is the only brotherhood in Araby! They’ll sell each other out in a NY second.
afrostreetwise says
Ooh! Finally our refugees in Northern Kenya from Somalia can finally be expatriated. You see, after the west gate shopping mall attacks and later the Garissa (a town in Norh eastern Kenya) University was attacked, the government decided to deport the hundreds of refugees since the attacks were being masterminded by people connected with those camps. Barrack Obama and UN’s Bankmoon were all hysteria and applied immense pressure to ensure those camps were not closed. It seemed the big shots were somehow benefiting. Without the UN biggest donor, I have a feeling the UN will be happy to see the camp closed. that is a direct benefit of Trumps election in a far off country. Thumps up Trump.,
gravenimage says
Glad to hear that this is helping Kenya fight Jihad and keep her citizens safe, as well. Excellent news.

I think they should defund them and tell them to leave this country all they are anymore is a front for the new world order and controlling as many countries as they can . they are not the same Un from when it was first opened thats for sure.
