Trump’s decision to nominate Hegseth, 44, shows that the new president intends to fulfill his promise to end what he calls “wokeness” in the military. The move also suggests that Trump may reinstate his travel ban covering many Muslim-majority countries in the Middle East.

according to WashingtonPost, In his 2020 book “American Crusade,” Hegseth talked about the dangers of rising Muslim birth rates and claimed that immigrants benefit from government-sponsored social programs. He also said that Islam “is not and never has been a religion of peace” and that “all modern Muslim countries are either officially or de facto no-go zones for Christians and Jews.”

“Our present is very similar to the 11th century. “We don’t want to fight, but we must fight like our Christian brothers a thousand years ago,” he writes. “Arm yourself figuratively, intellectually and physically. Our fight is not with weapons. Yet.”

He concluded by arguing that Islam’s core followers plan to “conquer” Europe and America through demography and culture and destroy “our nation’s Judeo-Christian institutions.”
