Islam’s rise in the West didn’t happen overnight. It’s been a gradual process over decades that has brought us to where we are right now.
I bring you Ramadan 2026. The Islamic holy month just wrapped up, and it gave a very revealing glimpse of where we’re heading in America if we do not change course.
Let’s start with New York City. Since January, America’s largest city and financial capital has been run by an Islamo-Communist named Zohran Mamdani. He is an anti-Israel ideologue who has long had ties to notorious radical Islamists, and as mayor, he is wasting no time in showing who he is and what he represents.
“Many ask me what it means to be the first Muslim mayor of our city,” Mamdani stated. “And in that question, there is an assumption that I am introducing our faith to the city as a whole. When in reality, our faith has been a part of this city for generations. The question of whether it’s been seen is another matter entirely. But Muslims and New York City, they are intertwined.”
Islam and NYC “intertwined?” They sure are—including in the memories of 9-11 survivors or those who lost loved ones in the Twin Towers that day. Of course, if you mention that to Mamdani, he will probably just smile and talk about “tolerance.”
Ramadan was his coming-out party. In early March, Mamdani responded to an attempted ISIS terror attack against protesters in front of his residence by first condemning the protesters and decrying “white supremacy.” He vaguely added that there is “no place for violence” in New York City, while never once mentioning Islam or ISIS.
It only got worse from there.
A few days later, Mamdani hosted a taxpayer-funded Ramadan Iftar dinner at City Hall, where one of the attendees, a guest of the mayor, held up the ISIS one-finger salute—but I’m sure he was just being playful!
Imagine if a devoutly Christian mayor held a Christmas or Easter service at New York City Hall. The left and their mainstream media minions would be howling about the separation of church and state. But when it comes to mosque and state, it’s apparently a different story.
Last week, Mamdani led a large crowd in Ramadan prayers in Brooklyn’s Prospect Park. Did you ever imagine 25 years ago, as the remains of the Twin Towers were still smoldering after Islamic jihadists carried out the worst terror attack in American history, that you would see a mayor of New York City leading an Islamic prayer event? Or how about lighting Eid Mubarak lights for Ramadan?
Mamdani wasn’t the only Democrat politician to publicly observe Ramadan. New Jersey Governor Mikey Shirell donned a Muslim hijab as she visited a mosque. The Democrat mayors of Salt Lake City and Miami-Dade County proudly wore the same Islamic head covering as they met with local Muslim leaders.
Make no mistake, the left is all in on Islam, and they are going to continue to push it. Why? Because it’s not biblical and it’s not Western.
The left in Europe has used the same model. Mass Muslim migration, both legal and illegal, followed by rapid mosque building and enclaves where non-Muslims are rarely seen. The process was also gradual in Europe. Now, London’s Muslim mayor, Sadiq Khan, is leading Ramadan prayers in historic Trafalgar Square.
New York City and London, the world’s two financial capitals and arguably the two greatest cities of Western civilization, are now governed by Muslims who promote socialist economic policies. And we are supposed to believe that this is all just a coincidence and not a larger strategy to undermine the Judeo-Christian West and our way of life?
