This is an act of war. Beckstrom died serving her country.
What mosque did the jihadi attend? Why hasn’t his co-religionist co-conspirators been arrested? It’s long past time to take the global jihad seriously and start fighting back.
There are no ‘lone wolves’ in the holy war against the West.

By Katherine Donlevy and Ryan King, NY Post, Nov. 27, 2025
Sarah Beckstrom, one of the West Virginia National Guard members shot in a cowardly ambush by an Afghan refugee Wednesday, has died.
The 20-year-old’s grieving father confirmed she died of her injuries in a heartwrenching Facebook post Thursday.
“My baby girl has passed to glory. If I don’t talk to you don’t be offend[ed] this has been a horrible tragedy,” Gary Beckstrom posted just after 6 p.m.

“She’s just passed away. She’s no longer with us. She’s looking down at us right now,” a somber Trump told the service members. “Incredible person, outstanding in every single way.”
“Just horrible.”
The White House confirmed that Trump spoke with Beckstrom’s parents Thursday night.
Beckstrom had been listed in critical condition after being shot in the chest and the head while standing guard in Washington, DC.
She was rushed into emergency surgery following the alleged terror attack, but her prognosis remained bleak.
Her father was certain Beckstrom would succumb to her wounds when reached by The New York Times earlier Thanksgiving Day.
