Our New Movie Trailer Has the Left Absolutely Losing It

So, we made a kickass movie about Islamic terrorism. And the terror-supporting left then called us Islamophobic. Honestly, we could not get a better endorsement for the film. Run, Hide, Fight, Infidels is literally about ISIS taking over a college campus. So, when a left-wing terror hugger like Mehdi Hassan says the movie generates hatred for Islam, I mean, you're kind of outing yourself. I don't know. It seems like a good idea to be phobic of Islamic terrorism. I think we should be concerned about ISIS. They're the bad guys. Everybody should know exactly who they are and what they do. If people are pissed at the trailer, just wait until they see the film. So, Infidels is basically a 1980s, 1990s-style action flick, toy soldiers, Red Dawn-style major action movie starring Jonathan Majors about an ISIS takeover of an American lib university. It's exciting. It's intense. It's funny. It's the biggest movie we've ever done. If you missed the trailer yesterday, here it is again, so you understand what we're talking about when we get to the critique. Your country is beneath contempt. We who love and serve Allah fought back against the Americans and the Zionists from the scourge of secularism and the lands of unbelief. Anyone gonna listen to Captain Saunders tomorrow? The retired Delta Force soldier with a new book out. He's the polar opposite of those brain-dead protesters. Given the current climate, should Blake Saunders even be allowed on campus? Mr. Saunders is a close personal friend of Chancellor Friedman. This is a decision I cannot flatten. There are three ways Islam will conquer the West. Through immigration, through the wombs of our women, and by using our nation's freedoms against us. Are you paying attention? Listen carefully. The great Satan America will fall. You are infidels. The bodies of women are not pure and men's souls are unclean. What makes them so dangerous? Their goals are not in this life, but the next. I got friends here, I can't just leave them. Listen to me! In the law, we cannot run or hide from what is coming. We have to fight. I will be rewarded 10,000 times in the next life. When you die, you're nothing. Only one way to find out. That's the American way. Okay, so first off, I should say the movie is awesome. It's awesome, okay? I know, and by the way, if you don't believe me that it's awesome, you should go watch Run, Hide, Fight, like the first Run, Hide, Fight, right? Because this exists in the Run, Hide, Fight universe, infidels. The first Run, Hide, Fight is available right now over at Daily Wire. You should check it out. It is one of our most viewed pieces of content literally ever because it's great. It's about a girl and her friends trying to fight back against a school shooter. It's fantastic. Go check it out, Run, Hide, Fight. Same director, same writer, okay? As far as the quality, it kicks ass. It's great. It is better than the first one, okay? But let's get to the blowback because the blowback is so telling. So Mehdi Hasan did what you would expect. Mehdi Hasan, an import from Al Jazeera and a spokesperson for Qatar, is as difficult to come up with a more bigoted, Islamophobic, and cliched trailer than this one. Okay, so I have a question. Why is it Islamophobic to point out what ISIS actually does and says? It turns out that he's going to have to explain to me how an Islamic terror group that is literally doing everything that is done in the movie, is done by Islamic terror groups all over the world. Why is depicting those people on screen Islamophobic? He's going to explain how that actually implicates all of Islam. Does it? I mean, if it does, then maybe Mehdi should explain. Why is it Islamophobic to literally just, quote, ISIS, doing ISIS things? I don't like ISIS doing ISIS things. I think it's bad. And so therefore, I'm very much in favor of movies that paint ISIS as the bad guys. Why that is remotely controversial, or hiding behind the rubric of Islamophobia, is bizarro world. Bizarro world. Bigoted. Why is that bigoted? Why is it bigoted to say, you know, it's bad that ISIS does ISIS stuff and wants to murder Americans and would love to set up a caliphate here in the United States if they could. Why is any of that, quote unquote, Islamophobic? Why are you hiding behind a nonsense word? Why are you doing that? And then he says, also, Hollywood has refused to tell the story of radical Islam. Is Shapiro insane or just gaslighting? Muslims have been the main villains in Hollywood for decades, even predating 9-11. That's just horseshit. It's not true. I mean, seriously. You could probably count on one hand the number of movies, major movies, where Muslims are the villains. And in fact, Hollywood routinely changed Muslims from being the villains of films, like over and over. Most famously, there was a Ben Affleck movie that was rooted in an action novel by the same guy who did Hunt for Red October. It was a Jack Ryan movie called The Sum of All Fears. And The Sum of All Fears was supposed to be about Palestinian terrorists. In the book, it is. They changed it to Russians. That sort of stuff happens all the time in Hollywood, all the time. Hollywood is constantly doing movies about the neo-Nazis, about the radical Russians, even the North Koreans. Let's stay away from the Chinese because there's too much of a Chinese movie market. But they have really stayed away from ever since 9-11. I'm old enough to remember when the show 24 literally had to deploy Kiefer Sutherland to apologize publicly for possible Islamophobia in the show because there was a season about the counterterrorism unit, which is what 24 is about. Great show. In which Muslims were the bad guys. And it turns out, by the way, even the Muslims were working for some sort of cross-national corporate organization or something. Because that's how Hollywood always has to play it. So, you know, like a balls-out depiction of exactly what ISIS does. I'm not sure how that's Islamophobic. And if you think it is, you're telling on yourself. Because I think we should be phobic of ISIS. They're the bad guys. I mean, I think that it is good that the American people know who their enemies are and what those people think and what they say and what they do. And Kyle's script definitely does that. I mean, again, the trailer is just the tip of the iceberg. If they're pissed off at the trailer, wait until they see the film. Again, I don't understand why. It is incredible to me. People are upset because the movie is anti-ISIS. First, here's a challenge. Next time you're at the grocery store or the supplement aisle, pick up a product and then read the ingredient list. If you need a chemistry degree to figure out what it is that they want you to eat, maybe that's telling you something. One of the things I like most about Balance of Nature is its simplicity. Their whole health system is built around 47 ingredients from real fruits, veggies, spices, and fiber. Apple, broccoli, ginger, turmeric. These are ingredients you actually recognize.

And frankly, in a world where everything seems to be getting more complicated, I appreciate products that move in the opposite direction. Simple, practical, easy to stick with.

And meanwhile, people who legitimately sympathize with ISIS, like, for example, the idiot streamer Sneko, he put out a tweet, the Kufar are getting so desperate they're trying to do Bush-era propaganda in 2026. No one cares anymore. We all know the Israelis are the real terrorists. Now, I would just like to point out at this point, the root of Kufar is also kafir, which is infidels. So he's literally calling people infidels. In that tweet, he's calling people infidels, saying the infidels are desperate. The infidels. And by the way, Sneko says you should be afraid of the Juden, of course. He was literally chanting Nazi propaganda. Now, this is the same guy who openly says, quote, congrats to Abdul El-Sayed, the first Muslim to win a primary for the U.S. Senate. Islam will save America, inshallah. I don't know. I feel like maybe we should be a little concerned. Sneko, the guy who's telling you you should not worry about Islam, literally goes out on the streets of New York and chants that Islam is about to take over America. And we're supposed to just pretend this is not a thing that is happening here in the United States or that it is totally crazy to make a movie in which the ISIS-aligned and their sympathizers are the bad guys. I don't know. I kind of feel like they're the bad guys. And as for the notion that ISIS is just not a threat in America, yeah, they kind of are, actually. In fact, ISIS remains the chief threat of terrorism worldwide today, according to the Global Terrorism Index. 20 percent of all terrorist groups, of all terrorist attacks on planet Earth are attributable to ISIS right now. And, of course, we've seen a multiplicity of radical Islamic attacks in the United States, not including 9-11, which killed 3,000 people and injured 6,000. We're all supposed to pretend that never happened. It is insane to me that we as a country have decided that September 11th is totally irrelevant, totally irrelevant. And in the city where 3,000 people were murdered by radical Muslims, the city of New York decided to make its mayor a person who is sympathetic to radical Islam. It's insane. It is totally crazy. But this is where we are, and that is indeed a threat. But, you know, just take the last decade and a half or so. The 2009 Fort Hood shooting, 13 killed, 30 injured. The 2013 Boston Marathon bombing, three killed, 260-plus injured. The 2014 Queens hatchet attack, two NYPD officers injured. The 2015 Chattanooga Military Recruitment Center shooting, five killed, two injured. 2015 San Bernardino attack, 14 killed, 22 injured. The 2016 Orlando Pulse nightclub shooting, 49 killed, 53 injured. 2016 New York City, New Jersey bombings, 31 injured. 2016 Ohio State University attacks, 11 injured. 2019 Pensacola Naval Air Station shooting, three killed, eight injured. 2020 Corpus Christi base attack, one injured. 2025 New Orleans Bourbon Street attack. That was the one where the truck actually had an ISIS flag on the back of it. 14 killed, 57-plus injured. See, so here's the thing. I don't know. I feel like we should be concerned about ISIS and all the people who are willing to defend ISIS by just shouting Islamophobia. We should be concerned about those people. We should. We should be talking about the threat of radical Islam. How do I know that? Well, I mean, one reason is we will probably have to spend millions of dollars as a company on security because we're making a movie depicting radical Muslim terrorists as radical Muslim terrorists. And I can tell you this. If we made a movie about Christian nationalists and how evil they are, we would not have to up our security. We would not. But if I literally took out a piece of paper right now and drew a stick figure and wrote the word Mohammed with an arrow to it, I would have to up my security radically. That says something about an ideology, does it not? Here's the thing. If I have nothing to fear from devotees of an ideology, then I really shouldn't have to worry about people being murdered because I speak about that ideology. Salman Rushdie writes a book 30 years ago and the Iranians put a fatwa on him and he stabbed in the eye 30 years later. And unfortunately, unfortunately, when you scratch beneath the surface of the Islamic communities across the West, it turns out there are an awful lot of people who believe awfully radical things. For example, just two years ago, a Henry Jackson Society poll of British Muslims found that 52 percent of them, a majority, believed it should be illegal to draw Mohammed. Illegal. You should be legally punished for drawing Mohammed. That same poll found that British Muslims are more likely to have a positive than a negative view of Hamas. And by the way, a lot of that sentiment is shared across the pond here in the United States. A Pew poll from just a couple of months ago found that 44 percent of American Muslims expressed favorable, favorable views of the terrorist group Hamas. Forty four percent. And there's a reason that Abdul El-Sayed won 90 percent of Dearborn, the same city where Jake Lang was getting the crap kicked out of him the other day. And it turns out there are a lot of Muslims in the West who are willing to morally equivocate about radical Islamic terrorism and violence and then shout Islamophobia the minute you notice it. And there are a bunch of leftists who are willing not only to fellow travel with it, but are willing to ingest it, imbibe it, make it part of their program. That's the story of run, hide, fight infidels. But it also happens to be the story of America right now. We're watching it happen in real time in our politics. What an amazing video you just watched.
