Vice-President JD Vance warned on Friday that France and the United Kingdom could pose a future security risk to the US if what he called “Islamist-adjacent” ideas were to gain political influence.
Speaking in an interview with UK-based online outlet UnHerd, Vance argued that the backlash over immigration has left Europe without “a very good sense of itself”.
There are “Islamist-aligned or Islamist-adjacent people who hold office in European countries right now,” he added, without specifying who exactly he referred to.
For this reason, it is “absolutely” possible to see Islamist-adjacent views rise to power in a European nuclear power, like Paris or London, in 15 years.
Vance said the issue was of direct concern to Washington because France and the UK are nuclear powers. “If they allow themselves to be overwhelmed with very destructive moral ideas, then you allow nuclear weapons to fall in the hands of people who can actually cause very, very serious harm to the US.”
Washington will have “to have certain moral conversations with Europe”.
Vance, notably, did not mention Pakistan, another nuclear power and a majority-Muslim country, with which the US enjoys some bilateral relations.
Earlier this month, the US Trump administration released its new security strategy, painting a dire picture of Europe’s political and economic trajectory.
The document emphasised a US ambition to restore “European greatness” to a continent Washington said is facing economic decline and the “stark prospect of civilisational erasure”, sparking wide pushback from European capitals.

I hope Trump stays healthy enough until the end of his term and that the Republicans lose decisively in 2028, because Trump’s chaos would be nothing compared to Vance’s radicalised madness.

What happened to „America First“? Why all the meddling in other continents‘ affairs? Oh and by the way, you are the biggest threat to the US, Mr. Vance.

He hates us, that much is clear. But it’s not a surprise to anyone who’s been paying attention. A lot of people think Trump is the problem, but Vance is much worse.

Thank god for Americans with their „solid morals“, willing to seize Greenland on a whim, wage oil wars, and say „forget the people of Gaza, we’ll build luxury resorts there once the bodies are cleared“. But then again, it is what I expect from the new Russian puppet state.

Lol. It’s strange to hear these words from people without morals. Although, no. Americans have taken up the baton from Russians to call everything by opposite words… “peace,” “reality,” “democracy,” “Christian values” (Literally, this “loving Christian” says he doesn’t care what Russians are doing to Ukraine. The main Christian postulate is that “God is love.” The absence of love is not anger or hatred. The absence of love is indifference. )…Russia 2.0 with its own reality

They won’t defend Ukraine because it’s another continent, but they will force their fascism down our throats “or else.” Right.
Europe needs to take care of its far-right traitorous rats problem at home, and to arm up against the New Axis of evil that is USA-Russia.

I’m beginning to think this JD Vance may be a bit racist.
Also, if he cares so much about Islam gaining influence, why didn’t he say something when his boss was palling about with the Saudi royals or touring the middle east signing business deals?

The USA is the biggest threat to the civilized world currently. Bigger than Russia or China or climate change.

Vance and friends are proof that Trump is not really the problem, just a symptom. Also shows how dumb is the idea that somehow everything will magically be fixed once old mate is out of office.

Vance as president would be way worse than Trump. Because Vance will feel like he has to prove himself to daddy and will be willing to do the most insane shit to achieve that

I would also be much easier to impeach vance though I don’t think the blatant disrespect for the law will extend to Vance.

If we are so dangerous, why does Trump then insist on selling us more weapons.

Pakistan is not a problem.
Keeping USA nukes on Turkey soil is not a problem.
Saudies getting nuclear umbrella from Pakistan is not a problem.
China and India aren’t a problem.
Two allie countries, with Muslim population at 6-10% ARE THE PROBLEM.
DJ hillbilly is a moron.
The question is Why? Why he hates us so much?

He just doesn’t like morals.
He’s scared of what he doesn’t understand

Russia has 12 times the number of nukes, has more Muslims per Capita than France or the UK and their share is rising much faster. Yet no word of worry about that. I wonder why.

Vance: „Islamists-aligned or Islamist-adjacent people are currently holding office in European countries“.
He is either extremly stupid og lying through his teeth.

Thank god our leaders didn’t trust the US and we got nukes despite their objections.
The bad news to read here however is that US are probably gonna try to influence UK and France’s politics

For those of us who have been struggling to understand _why_ this US administration seems to hate us and place our enemies before us, Vance is telling you. This is what these people actually believe deep in their bones. That we are morally corrupted (because of tolerance of atheism, Muslims, abortion, etc) and they are the last “true Christians”.
I don’t know to what extent this idea has been implanted in their heads naturally or by our enemies. But I think it’s important to understand that this is how these people actually think*. Then their decisions start to make more sense.
*(Trump himself not so much, he just cares about enriching/empowering himself, but these stooges surround him and we know how susceptible he is to the last person who spoke with him)
