Trump tweeting about it this morning:

Al-Shabbab, not ISIS, just made a video on me - they all will as front-runner & if I speak out against them, which I must. Hillary lied!

Hillary Clinton lied last week when she said ISIS made a D.T. video. The video that ISIS made was about her husband being a degenerate.

Apparently he was telling the truth. At 48 seconds there is Bill the fornicator.

If Trump is really being used in the recruiting video of an Al-Qaeda affiliated terror group, then that’s more points in his favor.

How is it a point in his favor that he provide our enemies with more recruitment material? The only thing Trump’s comments do for us is to provide us with an opportunity for some chest-beating. I hope that felt good, because the price was high.

Hilary gave them the idea!

Wouldn’t be surprised to find out this was produced with money from the Clinton foundation. It pops up after the fact…how convenient.

Very convenient. After she was fact checked and her claims were proven to be completely bogus.

Amen, perhaps the vote for Hillary propaganda will be their next ploy.

Good thing FOX is honestly and accurately reporting as usual without bias as some other leftist networks. 👍

FOX shows bias to the right. If that is the bias you prefer that is fine- just be honest about it.

Trump and some of his supporters are all about chest beating. A lot of hot air within real substance.
 
Trump: I’d be a “much different person” as president

“I would be very enthusiastic, like I am right now, toward the country. We need spirit. We need a cheerleader,” he said in an interview that aired on CBS’ “Face the Nation” Sunday.

“President Obama’s a bad cheerleader. I thought he would be a good cheerleader. I thought he’d be a great cheerleader actually,” Trump added.

He said that he thought he would still give rallies if he is elected president in 2016, but otherwise would “probably not talk as much.” He explained that he had to defend himself while “getting hit from 15 different sides” by the other candidates.

One thing that wouldn’t change: His blunt style.

“Here’s the problem with political correctness. It takes too long. We don’t have time,” he said. As an example, he pointed to his use of the term “anchor babies” to discuss children born in the U.S. to immigrants who are in the country illegally. The term is considered offensive by some in the Hispanic community, but Trump said “we don’t have time” for a longer definition that refers to the parents as undocumented.

If you truly believe that the answer to Islamic terrorism is to just convince them they are welcome here. Well I must ask, why that hasn’t worked for the last several decades?

Isis and their potential sympathizes want one thing. A Muslim sharia law abiding world. They will not stop until they succeed or are eliminated.

I mean half their grievance is having the perverse american culture infiltrate their countries by mc Donald’s and other commercial operations. Why would the idea of increased american exposure appease them?

Remember, the purpose of an ISIS recruitment video is to convince those not yet in ISIS to join ISIS - much more so than to provide a pep talk to those already in ISIS. That is the target audience. It is madness not to care what the world’s 1.6 billion Muslims think of us. Our best hope of defeating ISIS is to convince those Muslims that the West is tolerant of them. We cannot afford to write off these people as potential allies, as Trump has apparently done.

If you are of the opinion that 1.6 billion Muslims could be motivated to join ISIS because of Trump, then you have a lot lower opinion of Muslims than Trump does.
 
My guess is that the vast majority of ISIS leadership doesn’t know who Trump is, nor do they really care.

And is dangerous to our country.

How is it more dangerous than dropping bombs on ISIS?

Don’t you think that angers them more than our immigration policies?

Dropping bombs on ISIS (and only on ISIS) does not anger those who are not in ISIS at all. But showing the world that we think all Muslims are a threat angers those very people who could be our most effective allies.

If only 0.00094% of those Muslims were motivated by that video to join ISIS, that would effectively double the size of ISIS.

I know that convincing Muslims they are not welcome here is certainly not the answer. There is no reason we have to start off by shooting ourselves in the foot.

Well we’ll surely find out in just a little over a year from now if we have a President Cruz or President Trump. Cruz doesn’t know if sand glows in the dark but he wants to find out and Trump perhaps put it most bluntly of all, he would “bomb the s— out of 'em.”
