In addition to arming and funding terrorists, liberals help out by somewhat tying the hands of military and law enforcement opposition.
The obstruction goes beyond the leftist word games making it difficult for government security services to identify and define the enemy (see post on Obfuscation...). The Obama administration has not only demoralized the Department of Homeland Security with harsh and misdirected criticism, it also ordered the DHS to scrub records of Muslims with terrorist ties. (see HERE)
According to one whistle-blower: "These types of records are the basis for any ability to “connect dots.” Every day, DHS Customs and Border Protection officers watch entering and exiting many individuals associated with known terrorist affiliations, then look for patterns. Enforcing a political scrubbing of records of Muslims greatly affected our ability to do that. Even worse, going forward, my colleagues and I were prohibited from entering pertinent information into the database
"As the number of successful and attempted Islamic terrorist attacks on America increased, the type of information that the Obama administration ordered removed from travel and national security databases was the kind of information that, if properly assessed, could have prevented subsequent domestic Islamist attacks like the ones committed by Faisal Shahzad (May 2010), Detroit “honor killing” perpetrator Rahim A. Alfetlawi (2011); Amine El Khalifi, who plotted to blow up the U.S. Capitol (2012); Dzhokhar or Tamerlan Tsarnaev who conducted the Boston Marathon bombing (2013); Oklahoma beheading suspect Alton Nolen (2014); or Muhammed Yusuf Abdulazeez, who opened fire on two military installations in Chattanooga, Tennessee (2015).
"It is very plausible that one or more of the subsequent terror attacks on the homeland could have been prevented if more subject matter experts in the Department of Homeland Security had been allowed to do our jobs back in late 2009. It is demoralizing—and infuriating—that today, those elusive dots are even harder to find, and harder to connect, than they were during the winter of 2009.." (ibid)
This kind of "scrubbing" makes it easier for Islamic terrorist to infiltrate across our borders and into our government (including departments responsible for national security--see the post on Infiltration...)
Political correctness also factors into the obstruction equation by, among other things, preventing citizens from reporting suspicious activities for fear of being accused of racism or Islamaphobia. (see HERE and HERE and HERE) The Orlando massacre is a horrifying case in point:
