General Mike Flynn and Steve Bannon used a recent “War Room” segment to link the Afghan shooter incident to what they described as a broader, coordinated effort targeting the United States.

The discussion centered on their view that the event reflects an ongoing “color revolution” directed by figures they named as former President Barack Obama and former CIA Director John Brennan.

Flynn said his reaction to the shooter’s background immediately raised concerns for him.

“My first thing was, when I heard about where this guy came from, I was like, Oh my God, this guy was this isn’t a one off. This isn’t a lone wolf. This is an intentional design to start a basically an internal, physical component of what I call this color revolution. And this is just one among many that I think that we’re we should expect to see.”

Bannon pressed Flynn on who he believes is directing the effort.

“You’re saying the date was chosen, or this guy was was used for color revolution, one, tell the audience, what do you mean by that, and who’s in charge? Who? Who’s draw in your best thinking, who’s driving this color revolution against the people and the sovereignty of the United States?”

Flynn pointed to events that he said trace back to the Obama administration.

“Yeah, I think that right now, and we have to really take a hard look at what happened all the way back to 2016 under Obama. And I think that Obama is still in the mix, mix here. I think the operational commander on the battlefield here in the United States of America is John Brennan. I just believe that. I mean, that’s my gut.”

He said the effort involves what he called an international coalition.

“I call it the Axis of Resistance. The Axis of Resistance essentially consists of communists, both that are emanating from the CCPs control, but also communists inside of our country.”

Flynn referenced voting patterns in Congress as an example and said foreign and domestic groups are working in tandem.

He expanded the list of groups he believes are part of the structure.

“So you got communism, you’ve got Islamism, you’ve got you’ve got these Narco cartels, these these terrorist groups that are also part of this. It’s not just Hamas and Hezbollah, it’s FARC and it’s the cartel Del Sol.”

He said the organizations have people directing actions and cited written doctrine he has reviewed.

Flynn linked the concept to events overseas.

“When we talk about color revolutions, that’s what’s going on over in Ukraine, that total loser war that I keep talking about. We have to get the hell out of there.”

He said the United States must ensure that executive orders issued by President Trump are carried out fully.

He urged a more assertive approach inside the government.

“Trump signs all these executive orders. Who’s checking to make sure these things are actually put being put into effect, all the way down to the lowest levels, right?”

Flynn said his military experience informs his view.

“Lawyers advise, leaders decide. And so Donald president, Donald J Trump, you need to make a decision. Now, listen to your lawyers, but make a decision.”

Flynn said Trump should bring in leadership from across federal agencies.

“Get your team, whether it’s CIA DNI, sect, war, you know, sex, state, sec, commerce, I don’t care, get them all in and tell them, and especially the Secretary of Homeland Security.”

He tied the shooter case to what he called a long-running campaign.

“The essence of a color revolution is a in this case, for the United States of America. This is a long period of time that this has been going on. They kicked it into higher gear when Trump won in 2016 and then they’re balls to the walls right now.”

Flynn said the shooter was acting with intent.

“This is not some guy who’s a loony bin. No, this guy is extremely well trained. He is a soldier of the left. Okay? He is a soldier of the movement to destroy the United States of America.”

He listed the forms of conflict he believes are underway.

“We are seeing economic warfare being played against us. We’re seeing cyber warfare.”

Flynn referenced commentary from researcher Mike Benz and said political interference is another component.

He pointed to what he described as a domestic movement in Virginia.

“Most people, Steve, don’t know about what’s called the new I wrote it down here, the new Virginia majority, right? There’s a name Tram Nyan (spelling?). Nyan, new Virginia majority. This is a communist movement inside of the United States to make sure that they get as many people that are communists running at the local level, school boards on up.”

Flynn also said cultural and religious tensions are being manipulated.

“Within the color revolution, you have what’s called contrived cultural shifts. And that’s this whole Islamification OF THE UNITED STATES OF. America in different places of the country.”

He cited locations in Florida, Dearborn, and Houston as examples.

He concluded with a warning about ideological conflict. “Islam is not compatible with Christianity and Sharia law is not compatible with constitutional law. We cannot have either.”
